"The technique will vary depending on your dimensions, the flexibility of your joints, whether you are wearing long or short sleeves, and your ability to cough at an angle."

...important contributing factors for many potential pastimes.

This is perhaps the greatest video in the history of the Internet.

I agree with #6. That was fantastic.

Just wash the hands either way with hot (not scalding) water and non-antibiotic soap. Do a scrub kind of like you see them do on popular TV shows like Grey's Anatomy (use fingertips to open a bathroom door knob, elbows or the blade of a palm to shut off water).

Then you're good.

@9: The video is about avoiding hand contamination in the first place. Yes, you should wash your hands, but that is not what this was about.

Seriously, Will, so many of your comments are either inane or actively wrong, and there is never a shortage of people pointing this out to you. Can you try to avoid posting if you don't have something to say?

@10: I don't think he ever reads anyone else's comments. Just his own, over and over.

All right, I watched the video. I'll admit it, I don't really want to sneeze into my sleeves.
