So my parents take the trash can and put it TOUCHING the table where you put food… in order to clear the table, and sometimes they FORGET TO WASH THEIR HANDS after TOUCHING THE TRASH CAN and then start touching other stuff… sometimes even cooking stuff…
one time I even saw the trash can ON TOP OF THE FUCKING TABLE so its supposedly easier to put the stuff into the teash can…
And even if they wash their hands… they often times (most of the time) DO NOT USE SOAP…
Sometimes they take the trash can and move it around to collect trash WHILE INGREDIENTS ARE LYING AROUND… like what if you accidentally stuff from the trash can just like… hops over the gap and contaminate stuff?
Like dont fucking get the trash can so close to food FFS
Also they sometimes (VERY OFTEN) don’t wash their hands after using the bathroom… I hear them touching the bathroom lids…
Also they put used toilet paper in a trash can… (different trash can in the bathroom)
sometimes I hear mom touch that trash can without washing hands…
My parents tell me I’m being germophobic…
I’m not crazy am I?
Is this just how most people life?
The fuck?
Edit: I’m gonna copy paste one of my comments below, to right here:
spoiler
So… okay my house is kinda fucked up…
There’s this issue with the 2nd floor bathtub randomly leaking…
Here’s a picture of what the ceiling looks like right now:
So they had to put a container below where it leaks:
So they sometimes take this container and put it on the table to collect the trash… Like ON THE TABLE…
Ewww bathtub drain water is gonna contaminate it…
Also the table looks like this right now:
Literally like 95% of the stuff on there stays on there like 365 days a year… its been like this since like 2017 as far as I can remember…
Maybe if guests come they clear the table… then aftet they leave shit goes back to the old ways…
Also, regarding the bathroom… nah… I’ll spare you the photo… don’t even want that nasty image in my photo album… just picture a small bin next to the toilet with a bunch of USED toilet paper…
Like right now…
Just been in the common areas for food and I feel kinda contaminated so I wipe down my phone with disinfectant wipes and like areas of my clothes or my body that made contact with stuff… or like if I feel like someone was talking and feel like they might have accidentally spit over me while talking
I also dont trust any leftovers… or any open bottle of water or soda…
Like I feel like my older brother might contaminate it… he drank out of a milk container with his mouth… so that’s around when I stopped having cereal…
I feel like he’s TRYING to poison me or something…
Okay I sound kinda germaphobic don’t I?
You do.
/edit Just scrolled further down and saw the picture of the kitchen table. I take that back, it’s not you but the place is indeed disgusting as fuck and you have my sincere sympathies.
That’s not the table where you cook stuff btw, that’s the table where you sit at and eat… like a diningroom table, I guess that’s what you call it…
Or what was supposed to be… these days me and my older brother just hide in our rooms and eat…
Nothing says “family” like eating alone in your room, huh?
My older brother did that “eating alone” first back in like I remember like 2017s or so… then after covid… I became more germophobic and so I also started doing that…
But mom also says a lot of annoying stuff to him like “omg look at your hair, it looks ugly (I mean it does tbh)”, “you’re fat, lose some weight”, “did you meet any girls in school”, “stop using your left hand to hold chopsticks”, “do you think you’re able to get married”/“look at you, would any girl even want you”… etc…
so it’s not unusual why he didn’t like eating at the table
I watch Spy x Family and similar media with good family dynamics… and it melts my heart… cuz IRL is so different… less wholesome…
