Bar Soap is Yucky

My entire life, well, at least ever since I first learned about germs or cooties in elementary school, I have developed a kind of phobia/gives me the creepers syndrome regarding bar soap. My parents used to have one bar of soap in the shower, which we all were expected to share, we all being my parents and I, the only child. For a while I was cool with this, but eventually i started getting kind of sicked out by the fact that they touch this exact same bar to their bodies, and I am to touch it to mine, which, though not according to 'Soap Theory', seems like it would transfer all of their germs on to me. I was around 8 when I began to use my own bar of soap, and never looked back.

However, the most disgusting place that I can think of for a bar of soap to exist in use is in the bathroom of a house shared by 5 roommates, which happens to be the case here. No pump for foaming action liquid soap, just a bar. This just seems really weird and disgusting, as someone wipes their butt and has their fecal butt particles on their hand, they touch the soap, the soap now has some of those particles on it! Just because you wash you hands with it, the particles are still their on the dry surface! Just sitting there, and the next person to pick it up, while they may end up with clean hands, they touch those particles!!! Am i Missing something!!! Bar soap is sick!!! It's SICK... especially now that they have 100 different kinds of foaming action liquid soap, it's a new era. The bars will always lose, the bars will always lose.
