One Parasitology course changed me and the way I perceived the world forever. Parasitology: not even once

Is this like learning that the splash from your toilet bowl sprinkles a bit of water on your toothbrush? Essentially a pure infohazard that makes tour life worse with no benefit?

Just like the bacteria in drinking water, you can't see it, taste it or perceive it in any way and it poses no relevant health risks. Your bathroom is flooded with poop particles even if you close the lid before flushing. It's just a fun fact and nothing to worry about, really.

The benefit is learning to close the lid before you flush. If you flush unlidded anyway... that's gross.

You keep your toothbrush in the bathroom?

Learning about all the bugs that live in your hair and eyebrows made me lose a few nights of sleep.
