seriously, you think water is gonna get them?!

SO....a weird phenomenon has been happening every time I enter a public restroom, I see someone Fake Washing THEIR HANDS!! Thats right, I said FAKE. They just briefly run them under water and dry them off and walk out. SICK!

First, what, you have the time to fake wash your hands but don't have the time to take the 2 seconds to add soap? You are already in the motion of washing your hands...add a little soap. Seriously, it takes like 2 seconds.

Second, Are you expecting all the germs to be drowned from all the water? What is the purpose of doing this? Really you are just smearing whatever is on your hands around..

I seriously have seen this so much down here. It makes me grossed out.

Here are the 3 most common things spread from not washing your hands, just in case you were thinking about going the Fake Handwashing Route:

Handwashing can stop three of the main ways in which diseases spread between people:

1. Fecal-oral transmission. This refers to diseases we get by ingesting fecal material (also called stool, excrement, poop, etc.), which happens more often than we'd like to imagine - usually because someone forgets to wash their hands after using the toilet and then touches food, drinks or other items. The germs are transferred to others who touch those items later. Many types of microbe are transmitted this way, including salmonellosis, shigellosis, hepatitis A, giardiasis, enterovirus, amebiasis and campylobacteriosis.

2. Indirect contact with respiratory secretions. Many diseases are spread indirectly by infected people who cough or sneeze into their hands, leaving respiratory discharges that can be picked up by other people when they touch or shake hands. Sneezers and coughers, wash your hands! The rest of us need to remember to wash our hands after touching anyone who has been coughing and sneezing. Influenza (flu), streptococcus, respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) and the common cold are just a few of the illnesses that can spread this way.

3. Contact with body fluids. Urine, saliva and other moist body substances can spread microbes including cytomegalovirus, typhoid, staphylococcal organisms, and Epstein-Barr virus. These germs can be transmitted from person to person or indirectly by contamination of food or objects such as toys.
