an amazing likeness
It's just simple that glassware sitting on a shelf is going to have more germs than a hermetic sealed environment.
What is about germs (I assume you mean bacteria) that is bad ? Ever considered what percentage of all the cells that make you are actually you?

We have to do what we can to minimize contact with them.
There are several problems with this approach -
1. Most germs in the world are nonpathogenic (i.e., they cannot cause disease in humans)
2. Many germs in the world are beneficial (i.e., human physiology depends on them)
3. Most pathogenic germs require certain environments that are not common to the glassware shelf
Attempting to isolate oneself from germs (i.e., microorgansms) can cause harm and with certain clear exceptions will not help prevent disease. The certain exceptions include, but are not limited to, using condoms while having sex and washing hands while providing healthcare services. The exceptions do not include avoiding clean glassware.
I'm running somewhere tomorrow. It's going to be beautiful. I can't wait.

And almost none of those germs are actually pathogenic. Most of them, in fact, are helpful.
Agreed -- there are germs everywhere. We have to do what we can to minimize contact with them.
Tick tock
This cannot possibly be a serious conversation.
Dude. It is Friday.
Dang, I'm too slow.
this conversation is spreading faster than a killer germ on my pint glass.
back already? damn.
In order to see the truth, sometimes you have to loose an eye.

Awesome! Tonight I am going to enjoy my bottled beer!
Not at it at all.
i sacrificed the gift
Look, it doesnt matter what percentage of germs are already in your body, whether there are some germs that are actually helpful, or whatever.
The fact of the matter is, you wouldn't shit in a bucket, and set it out in the sun for a week, and then come back and eat it. But that is exactly what you are doing when you are drinking water out of a reuseable container.
Of course we cannot avoid all germs, and we wouldn't even want to. But when we know that we are touching our mouth with something which is basically a haven for fecal coliforms, the only thing that a rational person would do is not do it.
Heh. I haven't gone yet. I'm too busy "working".
motivation zero...........oops, sorry people.
When it’s all said and done, will you have said more than you’ve done?
