True, but that's straight Johnnie Walker's red label whisky, 40% alcohol ought to kill any germs getting flushed down her gullet.

Don't you need ≥60% for ethanol to even be effective? Like to actually denature the pathogen.

For food safety standards probably. For an otherwise healthy person it's probably good enough.

[–] RedSnt@feddit.dk 3 points 2 weeks ago

It's a good point. And a quick search gave 60% or higher if one wanted to really sterilize. Apparently below that it depends on the strain of bacteria and how sensitive they are to alcohol.

Oh it's a phone. I thought it was celery.

Right? Looks like the Inception meme.

Why does that look so much like my brother had a baby with Leonardo DiCaprio? I'm disturbed

They did. Cool to meet you though, love your music.

As an older person, I need to ask: WHY?
Because I have too many good reasons why not.

[–] BeardededSquidward@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Because she's probably already drunk. That or trying to take a "cool" video of her drinking. I cannot for the life of me understand WHY.

Welcome to the older people club! :)

No. No fun. Fun-seeking got us into this horseshit. Learn to be satisfied with pleasant.

[–] sploosh@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Are you John Lithgow in Footloose?

[–] Sunsofold@lemmings.world 4 points 2 weeks ago

Most assuredly not.

Given how many people shitpost on the toilet and don't wash their phones... YIKES.

[–] piranhaconda@mander.xyz 9 points 2 weeks ago

That's what the alcohol is for, duh

Why doesn’t she angle the phone 90° so that the bottle is still in the shot but not pouring liquid sugar on your electronic device.
