    Because it burns you. That’s the answer. It kills your skin cells and eyes the same way it kills the bacteria. Also, it is everywhere, it’s fucking outside. The sun. Fucking stupid. Idiots.

    Know what else kills bacteria? Bleach. So get chugging.

    So stupid.

      Um, I’m going to copy a comment I made elsewhere:

      Dude, read the article. The whole point is it uses shorter wavelengths so it doesn’t penetrate your skin or cornea.

      Unlike me with your mom.
