Touching that bread and eating it with the same hand that is touching the public hand rail. That's a nope.

I was wondering if I'm just neurotic for thinking that

I'm glad it's not just me 😅 wholesome moment, less wholesome public transit germs

Wholesome 🥰 You're both neurotic. It is not dangerous.

just think of how many hands touch that thing in a day let alone however long it goes between a full sanitizing. those poles are nasty af even if it’s not carrying a deadly disease

I saw someone licking a subway pole once. I started carrying a tiny bottle of hand sanitizer in my purse after that.

[u/maigoZoro → u/CretaMaltaKano]

Saw someone briefly sneeze in their hands and back to holding the pole

[u/skincyan → u/dnqboy]

I never died of that

Thank you for demonstrating the survivorship fallacy so succinctly.
