POST HERE EVERY TIME YOU INADVERTENTLY TOUCH YOUR FACE

There's not much I know about you
Fear will always make you blind
But the answer is in clear view
It's amazing what you'll find TOUCHING FACE

Rubbed my eye in line at the grocery store last night.

this thread has made me touch my face twice as much, I am holding everyone accountable.

I can’t stop

not going to post here every time or I would be itt every 0.2 seconds, but apparently my default reaction when I catch a fingernail on something and might have chipped it is to stick it in my mouth

bad, wrong

100% relatable post tbh.

I should probably go all in and touch ONLY my face then I can't catch anything from touching other surfaces.

my shirt was clean on this morning but the cuffs got wet on the way in (1st rained on, and then caught in vigorous handwashing) and now they smell of wet dog, so I guess at least that'll alert me every time I raise my hands near my face

(no, I'm not sure a clean shirt which caught a few drops of rain and got damp with clean tapwater should smell of wet dog either. thanks, laundry detergent; might need to reconsider the terms of our contract)

I should probably go all in and touch ONLY my face then I can't catch anything from touching other surfaces.

excellent approach, might work on this myself

do I have to stop typing entirely or type with my nose now?

Very much in the same position re: touching my face. Can't stop won't stop. It's more easy and helpful for me to not touch anything else.

You need one of these

That looks pretty neat actually!

'Patently absurd' my ass.

Haha.

I'm distracting myself from touching me face by keeping my hands in my underpants

This thread has actually been a very helpful reminder to not touch my face. I'm getting good at using my facial muscles to scrunch various parts of my face that are in need of a scratch or a tweak or a rub. I'm sure I look completely psychotic to anyone who happens to notice me doing this, but at least I'm not touching my face, amirite.

That was the plan all along. Starting this thread has genuinely helped me fiddle with my face less.

My biggest worry now is that I'll break myself of the habit altogether and that, once this is all over, I'll forget to ever touch my face again.

I can't touch my face when I'm with me
And I hate it
And I hate it

ah fuck my eyes itch

Staircase wit in action: I can't believe I quoted the coronized version of 'The Man Who Sold the World' without the two preceding lines. Here, then, is the erratum:

Oh no, not me
We never lost control
You're face to face
With the man who touched the world

I'll never take touching my face for granted again.

I keep having these moments of, oh noes my face feels weird, am I getting sick? and oh noes, my neck hurts, am I getting sick? And then I realize that, no, my face feels weird because I'm not manually attending to every tiny signal flare of my facial nerve endings and, no, my neck hurts because I'm not constantly cracking it when it starts getting stiff. So I guess I've done a decent job of retraining myself in a relatively short span of time. Soon hope to stop touching any part of my body with my hands ever again.

Like if there was ever a time to tap into those latent telekinetic abilities buried down deep inside our brains, now is that time, my friends.

I'm actually not having any trouble at all following this protocol, though I am a little confused as to the nuances. If you're at home and have thoroughly washed your hands, I assume it's okay?

Only if you use your feet.

Forgive me father, for I have pawed my face.

Fook

I haven’t shaved my beard in almost two months so not touching my face is an absolute nonstarter right now.

yeah I haven't shaved in one and god I hate mustaches but every time I go back to my old house I forget to get my razor.

my gravestone will say "husband, father, face toucher"

Lol, RIP

Saw this dude yesterday reach into a garbage can, fish out somebody's used mask, and put it right the fuck on his face. Not a homeless or particularly poor looking dude, mind you, just a dude outside the grocery store who realized they were serious about not letting people in without masks. Seeing this filled me with an indescribable kaleidoscope of emotions. Then I probably touched my face.

I, too, would have copiously touched my face after beholding such a scene.
