My older sister always told me that if I didn't wash my hands with soap after I went to the bathroom, I would die of some pee-related disease. So naturally, I would soap up heavily. Then she tells me that if I didn't get all of the soap off, I would get cancer. Like I didn't have enough to worry about already!
