I have a theory that mail carriers have the highest tolerance to viruses and bacteria given their handling of letters and packages on a daily basis.

I'm gonna see your mail carriers, and raise you preschool teacher. Kids are pretty much just big bags of germs.

People with dark colored eyes see color differently than people with lighter colored eyes.

Everyone who has light eyes always says my hair is black and I can see that it isn't even the darkest brown. People who have darker eyes comment on my brown hair. Interesting.

True. If you don't want to get sick, don't be a school teacher and don't have kids. I was sickness-free from high school graduation until 2 years ago (when we started having children). Now I'm sick every two months.

If you were Symmetry, this thread would be 32 pages long by now containing denouncements of the death threats you'd been receiving, PhatScotty would have foed you and BBS would be banned.

Time to step up your game.

I've got them beat. I lick every single toilet seat whenever I go into a public restroom and I haven't been sick for at least 5 years. And no, I'm not particular over whether or not they are occupied.

Add in anyone who handles a lot of cash transactions (money is gross yo) and shopping trolly guys (surprisingly shopping trolleys/carts are right up there with toilet seats).

My wife purchased protective seating covers for our children when riding in shopping trollies/carts. So she apparently has also read that study.

Anything that every sneezy-joe in town can touch, will be filthy: shopping carts, escalator rails, elevator buttons, every public door...

On a similar note: never ever eat unwashed produce. Like, don't sample the cherries or grapes.

I'm going to stick with my mental image of Kiwis riding trolleys inside shopping malls. I also added ziplines to their barrooms, because why not?

Once youre done with riding them they make great braziers as well.

edit: until the plastic wheels melt and they affix themselves to the ground in your backyard/driveway until your next 3am menace mission on the streets (where you subsequently chip them off the concrete, and drag them to the nearest school entrance - school kids make the greatest university prank scapegoats).
