"Would you be willing to kiss everyone at the party?"

Posted by Emily Farris

Uh, if we had enough to drink, maybe.

With the Superbowl upon us, The New York Times explores double dipping and reminds us of the Seinfeld episode that centered around the choice—to dip once or twice?—after a recent study on double dipping was actually inspired by the show. Consensus? Dip once.

“The way I would put it is, before you have some dip at a party, look around and ask yourself, would I be willing to kiss everyone here? Because you don’t know who might be double dipping, and those who do are sharing their saliva with you.”

[New York Times: Dip Once or Dip Twice?]

(Thanks, John!)

Emily, sorry to be a dick (and I honestly have no idea why this is bugging me so much), but "Super Bowl" is two words.  You've posted it as one a couple of times.  I'll shut up now.

I can't believe you're the first person to bring that to my attention. Thanks (still don't care about football, but that's something I should know).
