I've been called a 'germaphobe'.  But what's so wrong with not touching stuff that wants to kill you?

It doesn't matter if you are waking up in Sioux Falls, Larchwood, or Kanaranzi, chances are you are going to be touching one or all of these gross things.

There's a list making the rounds of the 10 Grossest Things You Touch Every Day.  Some of these might just surprise you.

1. Your toothbrush:  Just putting it away while it's still wet helps bacteria grow.
2. Salt and pepper shakers:  The ones in restaurants are the worst.
3. Your keyboard: It's impossible to keep bacteria off it.  And you don't clean it enough.
4. Light switches:  All of them.  I'm not even going to mention your work bathroom switch.
5. Dish Cloth.: Yeah it's bad.
6. The faucet on your kitchen sink:  It's worse than the one in your bathroom, because it's also exposed to things like salmonella when you cook.
7. Your remote control:  When was the last time you cleaned it?  And you probably eat while you watch TV, so a lot of bacteria can build up.
8. Throw pillows:  People never wash them, and they can get gross even faster than the pillows on your bed, because they don't have pillowcases.
9. Your seatbelt:  It's another thing you never clean.
10. Your car stereo:  Which is why we strongly suggest you set your dial on MIX 97.3 and never change the station again.
