    In France, they kiss between one and four times depending on the region, it’s infuriating. I’ve just decided to not kiss any more. It’s a stupid tradition, and it’s a great way to catch colds anyway.

      Of course not, it’s a cultural means of sharing germs that quite literally saves everybody by helping share in the herd immunity.

        That was a thing before Covid. Nowadays, ehhh… it’s more of a Typhoid Mary thing.

          No need to be phobic, it’s barely worth worrying about considering your phone probably carries germs too hahaha

      Come to the UK, we don’t do any of that shit here. In Yorkshire we just nod and say “Alreight?” or “How do?” and that’s it, job done.
