Hey. That's cool. Canada does it as well. xD

I was raised on that since I live here in Hawaii and the Japanese immigrants working for plantation introduced it and it became a normal culture thing and being polite.

But yes. US for example. Mainland. Not everybody, depending on your culture but yeah. It does gross me out on the, you're getting everything dirty. DX

Or taking a shower in the morning. That's also gross.
