It is really amazing what this world has come to in the last 60 years.
I'm 63, by the way.
When I was a kid no one was dying because they ate a peanut, or smelled one or touched one.
There were not sanitizing stations everywhere you went to clean all those nasty germs off your hands just after you washed them with soap and water. (I mean, really? In the bathroom as you walk out???!!!)
Paranoimia is rampant these days. Everyone seems to be afraid of everything they touch or eat or smell.
I have not even had a cold or flu in over 5 years. Do you know why?
Because I do not do anything to avoid anything.
I see a doctor less than twice a year.
One visit is for the required DOT physical, and the other is to renew by bp med so I can pass that DOT physical.
No regular checkups, no immunizations or other garbage. No tests to find something wrong.
All because I am not afraid of getting sick.
I have less stress because I simply do not worry about it. And less stress makes me more healthy.
The best thing against getting sick is not trying to avoid anything and everything, it is by letting your own immune system do what it is designed to do - fight sickness, by being exposed to everything so it can develop defenses.Grubby, EuropeanTrucker, Lepton1 and 15 others Thank this. -
You guys sound really unhealthy. Stay away.

Yep grew up in a neighborhood built on 1910 industrial fill.Playground at school right next to coal burning heat plant, the dust got dumped on playground. Slept in basement with asbestos wrapped pipes. Factories spewing smoke. Now everyone’s dropping from Cancer. Many already gone at an early age.No wonder.

Smokers have a greater fear of an "ex-smoker" than of the general public.....talk about fanatic, lunatistic, emotionally unstable people......light another one and relax dude!
