i still find it perplexing how blowing your nose loud in public is socially acceptable (and some people really take the liberty).
It sounds like fart, in fact worse cus its liquidy. Potential of transmitting diseases, and hate how people LOOK at their fucking snot afterwards.
someone please explain.

haha.. i'm not saying its something I would kill myself about. I do it alot too. But i just find it kinda weird how its just acceptable, when people try so hard to hide farts and get really embarrased when they do.

why have boxes of tissues around if its not acceptable

Haha... I blew my nose so hard today one of the account girls was talking to a client on the phone and the client asked if there was a cow near bye.
Pretty much the best reaction I could have hoped for.

I actually feel the same way. It's strange how certain things are acceptable and others are not. I also dislike when someone burbs out loud all the time though, so maybe I'm in the minority.

It's funny how different cultures have such huge differences in social etiquette. It blows my mind that in Japan it's considered rude to walk while drinking a bottle of water or having a cigarette, but totally acceptable to spit on the ground whenever you feel like it.

i went to Japan on business a few years ago and had to leave the meeting a few times to go outside and sneeze.
I'm not sure it would have actually mattered because most humans aren't that uptight.

Chinese gov was trying to teach their citizens not to spit publicly right before the Olympics
