“Oh, please! You don’t have to tell me what triclosan is. I’m an excellent mother, and as soon as my boy turns 18 and can walk on the street without me, he’ll say the same. DON’T TOUCH THAT, MATT. Excuse me, I have to take my boy to the hospital.”

“Which antimicrobial agent am I supposed to use, if not triclosan? Chloroxylenol? Give me a break.”
