millennial here ... honest question, do you people really never take a sip of your parent's drinks? or share french fries or other finger foods from the same plate? try your parent's dish that they are eating???

it boggles my mind to be so grossed out by a loved one's saliva ... strangers, sure! but a loved one i am sharing living accommodations with ... NBD to me

or play board games, puzzles, share remotes ... again, i am confused how someone living with a person is so fearful of their germs. Newflash, their germs are already everywhere in your shared abode.

You lick board games and puzzles?

We share finger food in my family, but I don't need to share an ice cream cone with my saliva-obsessed parents. For example, if we are out at an ice cream shop my dad must take a huge slobbery lick if he's passing a cone to someone. Without asking. Gross.

Nasty.

Wait, you’re at DQ (or wherever) and your dad is buying soft-serve ice cream cones for everyone and before he hands it to you he takes a big lick off of it first? That is completely ridiculous!

He will sneak a lick, bite, or sip of other people’s food/drink any chance he gets. Won’t ask. Obsessed.

It’s so weird and gross. We are on full alert at the ice cream stand whenever we go with him.
