Advice from articles in the hygiene subsection of wikihow.com (The How-to Manual YOU Can Edit)

The internet truly is the great wonder of our time. It's like all of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World combined (excepting the Hanging Gardens of Babylon, which I don't believe to have ever existed--but debunking history is a job for another time). With the greatness of the internet however comes the greatness of responsibility and no responsibility is greater than sharing your greatness. That's why collaborative tools like Wikipedia are all the rage. But lost somewhere in the shadows is Wikipedia's scrappy little cousin, Wikihow. Wikihow collects the greatest minds that are not already contributing to Wikipedia (or about.com or really into World of Warcraft or in any other way occupied) and lets them teach you how to accomplish a variety of everyday tasks in ways you might not have considered. This is the Information Superhighway at its best: written and edited by people who still say "Information Superhighway."

Without any further ado, I present the best the hygiene subsection of wikihow.com has to offer:

• Turn on the tap, but don't wet your hands.
  
  
• Have doctors wipe off stethoscopes before putting them on you.
  
  
• Use 100% cotton gloves. Wool will irritate the face (should you try to touch) and nylon might get a runner.
  
  
• Chances are, your breath is not as bad as you think it is. Ask someone you trust (and will give you an honest answer) if they think you have bad breath.
  
  
• Don't eat food that has been sitting out all day. This includes salads, pizza slices, cakes, sandwiches, meats etc.
  
  
• Get a tissue (paper handkerchief). The softer tissues are great, such as those impregnated with aloe vera.
  
  
• Wear a t-shirt, you can't smell it through a longsleeve shirt.
  
  
• If another person's waste has been sitting in still water for any amount of time, then it more than likely is unsanitary.
  
  
• Draw the floss through the pimple again to remove any residue.
  
  
• Girls do NOT like it! They do not want to kiss a guy with a ring around his mouth.
  
  
• Avoid any thoughts about letting out pee. Do not to think of anything that may make you want to pee more.
  
  
• General rule of thumb: if you have a taste in your mouth, however light, you have bad breath. This only applies during periods of time when you aren't eating.
  
  
• If you have the cash, get some cashmere sweaters. They look nice.
  
  
• It's recommended that you only follow this when it is really important to not have a stuffy nose, or if you are over 15.
