You know how tightly wound these people, especially the men, are. It would not have ever happened if you were one of theirs.

This reaction should probably hit the point MQ.

That was great! I'm telling you, I'd find myself bopping in place to some of the music that played while waiting for my breakfast to be cooked in the place I stopped for coffee and breakfast in the morning. More than once I noticed a man who looked as if he was trying to hold back from breaking into dance. They sold the CDs at the counter, too.

Hahaha.

I was a little surprised when I first met my boss that he offered his hand. I already knew from just working in a multicultural setting at the WTC all my life that Orthodox men and women generally do not shake hands with the opposite sex, and I would not expect it.

He probably washed his hands a minute later. I've seen that.

With that two-handled cup they keep in the bathroom, yup!

I didn't know what it was when I first saw it. My first thought was "Oh my God, don't tell me they pee in that and then leave it sitting here on the sink!"

So I looked it up and then felt silly for letting my imagination take over.

The two handled cup is also in the kitchen and is used before starting a meal. Touching one's own hand is a no-no.

Why the two-handled washing cup? - Questions & Answers

It was difficult to find video, but this is how its used normally (it's not only done for passover):

So here is the dinning room:
