Fecal Matter

I just read recently in some magazine that everytime you flush the toilet, there's microscopic fecal bacteria that can fly as high as twenty feet in the air. So the article recommended that you rinse your tootbrush in Listerine or some potent mouthwash before brushing your teeth. It also recommended that you close the lid on your toilet when you flush. I think this is kind of a pain in the ass, and I don't know if I want to go through all that trouble. I'll probably forget anyway. Besides, it's kind of fitting that we all get some shit in our mouths...especially me, considering the kind of language I typically use.
