Once, while I was walking on the treadmill at the Y, the guy on the treadmill next to me spat on the front of his treadmill. It was on that plastic part just in front of the belt. I gave him a disgusted look which he totally did not acknowledge. And when he was done he wiped down the HANDRAIL of the treadmill leaving the wad of spit on that plastic part by his feet. People are disgusting. p.s. Finally your whole post is showing in my Google Reader which is very nice. Thank you! <em>Les Says: Oh, ewwww! Your story beats ALL my stories. AGAIN, you win, dammit! I'm not sure why you can suddenly get my whole post in the reader - it was not my idea. Now, I'm going to have to figure that out, just so I can say I know what I'm doing...</em> That’s disgusting.

I’m not sure why you can suddenly get my whole post in the reader – it was not my idea. Now, I’m going to have to figure that out, just so I can say I know what I’m doing…

I hate it when others spit. But as someone who suffers from seasonal allergies, I have been places where I have coughed up phlegm and been forced to spit. (Because there was absolutely no way I was swallowing it back down.) Other than that, people should save spitting for their bathrooms at home. <em>Les Says: ...or couldn't people carry tissues with them, and get rid of it that way? At least it's a little more discreet and a lot less gross.</em> It is totally gross. I hate it when others spit.

I have to say I've noticed more spitters lately, but not to the point where they're the majority, thank heavens. Last night at Kelly's softball game, somebody's boyfriend was there, and this kid was the gruntiest, slouchiest, little spitter I've seen in a long time. He made me wonder what is wrong with teenage girls, that THIS is what they like. If my nephew grows into that sort of being in a few years, I will lock him in my car and keep him there til he's 26. <em>Les Says: Uck. Do you know how much spit you'll have to clean of the dashboard?!</em> Oh, gross. I have to say I’ve noticed more spitters lately, but not to the point where they’re the majority, thank heavens.
