  I totally get that, working previously in kitchens and being told to wear gloves…I never did because screw that

  I just assumed that dealing with bombs wouldn’t be a one-time incident scenario.

    … You’re comparing a kitchen (sanitary) to a bomb exploding? Gloves will not protect you from a bomb. Anything that would would be far too large and unwieldly to use when trying to diffuse a bomb.

      In my REPLY, yes I’m comparing them because they are identical after being explained that they both decrease your fine motor movements.

      Actually not wearing gloves and washing your hands regularly is, I believe, generally bettee for sanitation. There’s a lot of false confidence and shit with gloves, and they cost money and are technically a limited resource. You should always have them on hand, especially for if you get cut and need to wear a bandaid, but washing your hands as needed is totally fine.

      And as it relates to this conversation they have a point in that gloves fucking suck to wear. They’re weirdly sticky and also even tight ones are like wearing loose skin and it just kinda sucks. Again, super great to have around and they can be awesome for some tasks where you just do not want to have to do anything more than removing the glove and rinsing, but the point stands.

        Why did everyone shift to sanitation when this post was about fucking bombs.

    I mean when they’re defusing larger bombs the suit wouldn’t help at all, it’s literally do or die
