IN A LATHER

More and more often these days, i’m finding these new Soap Dispensers in public restrooms which dispense Pre-lathered Soap. Is this just another indication of the Decline and Fall of America? Are there that many Americans with Physical Infirmities which prevent them from rubbing their hands together to make lather?? Have Americans become so Lazy that rubbing their hands together to make lather is too much of a strain?? Have Americans become so Dumb that they can’t comprehend the concept of rubbing their hands together to make lather?? Have Americans lives become so Cluttered that they can’t take the time to rub their hands together to make lather?? Have Americans so Addled their Brains with alcohol and/or drugs that Pre-lathered Soap is the only way to maintain minimum standards of Hygene?? Have Americans become so attuned to their bodies that they are afraid of a Repetitive Motion injury if they rub their hands together too often??
What kind of mind could even conceive a need for Pre-Lathered soap?  “Gee, Bill, you know my hands are really dirty”. “Yeah Fred, why don’t you go wash them”? “Wash them, Bill”? “Yeah, Fred, you know, go into the bathroom, turn on the water, put some soap on your hands, rub them together until a lather forms, then rinse them off and dry them”. “Gee, Bill, that sounds complicated, not to mention physically and mentally taxing, and time consuming. Plus, you could hurt yourself. There should be an easier way”. Both together, “I’ve got it, Pre-lathered Soap”!!
What’s next, Pre-Chewed Food?? GEEEZE!!!
