Do you shake your hands after washing them?

I opened this thread just to write "ARE YOU MY HUSBAND? THEN THE ANSWER IS YES, WITH GREAT VIGOR." Imagine my feeling of community when I saw what you wrote. 

It makes me absolutely psychotic. He also seems unable to see the water he has just shaken all over the kitchen counter (it legitimately goes as far as 2 feet away) or the huge mess it's making on the mirror in the bathroom.

I do give my hands a little shake after washing them, but it's more of a flick, and it's done down in the sink. NOT FOR DH. It must start from 2 feet above the sink and the hands must move a minimum of 12 inches in each direction.

GIRL I FEEL YOU.

And GOD FORBID someone use a paper towel to wipe down the water he has just shaken upon all my freshly cleaned surfaces. Apparently when we use paper towels, we're only allowed to use one tiny square. Anything more would be wasteful. And it will be soaking wet before he will throw it away, so it IS NOT DRYING THE COUNTERTOP. It is simply spreading the water more evenly, so it can leave nice even water marks on the counter. But also, don't use the kitchen hand towel, because that is FOR HANDS, NOT SURFACES, according to him.

I swear, he honestly must not understand that water (especially hard water like we have) pits and mars surfaces and ATTRACTS grime. I really think he thinks it's "just water, it will dry."

WHY DOES NO ONE TELL YOU THIS BEFORE YOU GET MARRIED.

Only in a public restroom with no paper towels. I’ll shake them, then wipe them on my pants. I won’t do that if I have a towel, or paper towels.

Same. Did you know that hand dryers blow bacteria right back onto your hands? I don’t like to use them.

No. I nipped that in the bud when the kids were little. Now if I could just convince DH to shut the doors/cabinets all the way, I could die a happy woman.

Not vigorously. Just enough so I don't drop as I reach for the towel. 

Same for me in public restrooms. I have no reason to shake them at home as the towels are right there. 

Gosh. This isn't something that I can get worked up about at all.

My hand towels are too but I don't like to even get a few drops on my counter as I reach for the towel. I don't even realize I'm doing that quick flick of my fingers before I reach for my towel. 

Yes, I shake my hands into the basin. No, I don't leave splatters everywhere. I would rather use a hand towel than a paper towel, and I hate air-dryers. DH is trained the same way, but he makes up for the splatters when he wet shaves.

I do, but only in public restrooms (regardless of whether they have paper towels), I find that if I shake vigorously, I only need one paper towel to dry my hands, so I feel like I'm being less wasteful than using 3 paper towels.

At home, I don't shake, I just use a hand towel.

My DH shakes his hands vigorously after washing them. It leaves water marks all over the mirror and it drives me crazy. Some of my kids do it as well.

I think I'd be handing them a bottle of windex and a rag to clean the mirror.

I don’t know! I’ve never thought about it. I guess I need to go wash my hands and see if I do. 😂😂

I don’t do it at home.

I do it in public restrooms that only have the stupid, dirty air dryers. I hate those and won’t use them, so I shake my hands.
