Life pro tip: loo first, chilli chopping after (feddit.uk)

If fresh chilli is part of your recipe, you really, and I mean really, want to go to the loo first and only then chop your chilli. After washing your hands thoroughly, of course. The other order is a bad idea. This advice applies definitely to males. I cannot comment whether the female experience is similar.

Female checking in. Can confirm that chili is not a friend to the downstairs area.

I'm almost chilli immune. But just, once in a while, I forget and rub my eyes.

Wash your hands, people. In yoghurt!

Is "chop your chilli" a euphemism in this case?

It could be, depending on your particular likings

It also really sucks to get it under your fingernails.
