Do You ever wonder about contminated screens and intrusive thoughts?

[Klaus88Participant]

My intrusive thoughts make me stop and wonder what horrible, dirty stuff is on the computer keyboard. I never cleaned it, at least not in years. Do you clean yours? Do you let others use it? Have you tried screen wipes? I play keyboard too and I REALLY try not to think about that. A crowd of people use it, that’s gotta make it filthy. What about communal headphones?. Most likely, something dirty is on everything like this, screens and keys are never washed. Is it okay or can we get real sick from this stuff – my thoughts tell me yes, deffo.
