Werid Poll Time Version 2

Let see the members thoughts on this one.

For the polls sake go with the floor you are standing on while typing and voting.

Re: Werid Poll Time Version 2

I said no, but it really depends on what it is, and where it is. Is it my home? Yeah, I'd pick up some things because I keep my floors pretty clean. lol

As long as it doesnt land in some liquid i'll still eat it. You can wash/blow off grit and crap. My food is too valuable to be tossed

Re: Werid Poll Time Version 2

If I can't catch the food before it hits the ground, then my reaction time is too slow, and I don't deserve to eat. That, plus it's freakin' disgusting.

I have an idea for the next poll: If you accidentally drop your toothbrush in the toilet...

Re: Werid Poll Time Version 2

It's not so much the dirt and that kind of stuff that bothers me. It's the fact that people walk around all day, in thier shoes, or in thier sweaty ass dirty socks. And when they walk outside, they walk on the streets and sidewalks where drunk people have puked, bums have pissed, and dogs have crapped (or any combination of the three.) Everywhere that shoe, sock, paw, and whatever else has been, is being tracked onto the floors we walk on everyday. And that is why, once it hit's the ground, it's dog food (unless it's chocolate, or a stick of butter).

Re: Werid Poll Time Version 2

The carpet in my apartment is disgusting, there is no way I would eat anyting off my floor. I guess that is what you get when you live with 5 dudes who rarely clean though.


If it were at my moms I definitely would, same as if it were in my room at my apartment.

Re: Werid Poll Time Version 2

There is no way I'd eat anything off of the floor of my office. Keep in mind I work in the construction industry, so you can imagine how black my floor is with mud, crude and all kinds of disgusting things.

Now at home is a different story. We leave our shoes at the front door and it's just me, a clean freak woman, two little girls and a little boy. The floor is always very clean so if I drop a cookie or something, I don't mind picking it up and eating it. I have a year and a half old son and he picks up all kinds of stuff and eats it too. More than once I've been sitting on the couch watching tv and he'll just cruise by with a cookie or some sort of candy. I'll think to myself, "Where in the hell did he find that shit? ? ?" Where else, the trash can. Kids rock.
