It can't be, but I worry that it can.

I went into the bathroom at work this morning at about 10.00 to blow my nose. When I tore off the paper towel (blowing your nose from a roll of recently used asswipe just horrifies me, so I go for the scratchy nose that you get from paper towel), it didn't tear off evenly and left a long, jagged strip of paper towel off of the left-hand side. I remember it because it was kind of bugging me as I walked back to my desk, but I couldn't bring myself to about-face back down there and fix it.

Anyhow. So I just now went and took a leak, and when I when to wash my hands, the jagged strip of paper towel was still there. I shit you not.

So now I'm sitting here, wondering whether it's just a longshot coincidence, or whether no guy in this office who's used the washroom in the last four hours has washed his hands.

I wish I had a little bottle of that hand disinfectant right now.
