Well, the theory was white people don't use washcloths, and black folks do. But the caucasians have been sufficiently earnest enough in expressing that they, too, enjoy the scrubbing action of a nice, bacteria-laden, slimy washcloth.Moreover PDaviddy burst my bubble in informing that
CSI is still on the case, but between this and mayo (see comments), it does seem the racial divide is closing. *cue music*
For the record, I used a washcloth until I entered "the program." But even out the womb, I have always enjoyed my sandwiches with mayonnaise.
Finally, I think the "soap bar is dirty" argument is absoutely ridiculous. But to end this on a right note, and show that you "what about the soap?" guys aren't alone, I'll end with a classic sketch from Chappelle's Show, Trading Spouses, where he touches on this very topic.
I think the mayo issue definitely needs a follow-up post. We need to clear that up.
ReplyDeleteI'm white, I can't stand mayo, and I like a good washcloth scrubbing, but my facial skin is so sensitive I often skip the washcloth. My Asian-American husband will reuse a washcloth (which he calls a facecloth) until it starts to fester and I toss it in the laundry. He oughta be grabbing a fresh washcloth each day, but it just doesn't occur to him.
