Ok... If your eating something and you drop it on the floor, by the ten second rule it's ok to eat it if you pick it up before you count to ten. I think it should be law. Anyone else follow the ten second rule?

Does the 10 second rule just apply to food?
Yes.
Why does it have to apply to only food?
If you dip your finger into a vat of acid, is it any safer at 10 seconds, than it would be at 3, or 4, or 20 ?
Because if I drop a CD for 10 minutes and it still plays I'm going to keep it.Quote:

No, it's not any safer at 3, 4, or 20. But if I drop a cookie and leave it for 25 years before I eat it's a lot more dangerous than 10 seconds. I gotta draw the line somewhere. Why not ten? It's a nice round number.Quote:

Are you telling me that you are such a slob that a cookie would lay in your floor for 25 years before you would notice it?
You should know. You live with me.
Actually, it's been proven that the amount of germs picked up from the ground by dry food increases only slightly between 0 minutes and 5 hours.
Perhaps we should have a five hour rule then... heh
...it depends how clean your floors are. Mine are dirty as fuck.
so you should have a 1 second ruleQuote:

Or get on his fucking knees and clean it
Or just grab another cookie like I do. Bums.
The ten second rule is a belief. Those who believe it.
we used the ten second rule at hungry jack's (fast food)
unless it was a frozen meat patty or frozen chips - in which case it doesn't matter how long its been there - because it is going to be cooked at a very high temperature anyway that will kill any germs
Hungry Jack... isn't that the same thing as a Burger King?
yep that's right
same logo, different name
Ten seconds eh? I thought it was changed to the 13 second rule, or was it 20?
10 20 30 whatever. if you believe it is good to eat does not mean it is not invaded by germs.
Cool, good enough for me
What if you drop in in a scientific Bacteria Growing experiment? does the 10 second rule still apply? (there are billions of bacteria in there, most of them are deadly)
yeah but the air created by when the cookie drops will knock the fuckers outta the way
Wut if my girlfrend turns in2 a alien zomby? do i still hafta luv her ?Quote:

10 seconds is a decent probing
I agree but its after they put the pod in you that you have to worry.

lol pwned
Not Owned. Rivalry_by_Imitation is a girl so she doesn't need an erection. She needs a man who has one. That someone is me. Thank you for playing.
:rolleyes:
:o
;)
Lose the Zero and get with the hero B)
yeah you should dump that loser.... wait a minute... forget I said that.
:blink:
If anything the 10 second rule applies to how fast I can give a man an erection, and why don't I get to pick who I want to keep? or not keep? As the case may be!
Somehow I feel that no matter what happens here I'm going to lose.... :P
Do you really think that the rule can be applied to the food?
Well, just remind some of you not to be out of the topic... ;)
