Bacteria?
 

Worm is selling a Tommy Kaira Hebi Bebi Shift Knob and I was going to ask: "WTF is the deal with the love of these things?" But first I decided to search the net. Didn't find anything on why so many people love them but that was because I came across this first (may be old news)... Bacteria on shift knobs and steering wheels Fighting bacteria in the car one sticky swab at a time - MSN Autos

Time to find a metal shift knob.

Oh...and WTF is the love of the Tommy Kaira Hebi Bebi?

or just stop eating in the car and wash your hands after you get home or arrive at work.

It's weighted, so the throws are crisper and it is probably the right shape if you are a plam shifter.

Eeeeooooowww!

What he said.

On top of that, it's shorter too. Heavy + shorter = win.:tup:

If that is not enough... Tommykaira is a famous Japanese car tuning and manufacturing company. The shift knob is very rare too. That should give enough reason for those JDM lovers all over it.:tup:

Now I am gonna go ahead and read WTF is this bacteria on shift knobs and steering wheels all about.:icon17:

there are billions of bacteria coating every surface of your body, and every surface you touch every day. in fact, your body has more bacteria cells inside it than human cells. it's just that the bacteria cells are much smaller, so they make up far less of your total mass.

most bacteria are harmless or even beneficial, so not much to worry about.

I haven't seen a single one of these bacteria things today so I don't know what you're talking about...

If you haven't seen it does not exist, right?:rolleyes:

Yup. I call BS on these 'bacteria'

Eating and car should never appear in the same sentence.

"You should never eat in the car".

Why not, it's just a nissan. Maybe if it was a classic 1963 Ferrari or something.

:iagree:

Unless of course you're talking about my ex... :shakes head:

:iagree: Wash those hands pronto upon returning home.

A silver or silver plated knob would be a natural anti bacterial.
