On my way home, on the bus. Tired (but what's new?)
Old couple gets up.... wife sits across the aisle from me, her husband takes the seat behind me. As the bus trundles along, I realise some strange activity is going on across the aisle. Old Lady is digging. And I mean digging.
I was morbidly curious.
s'bad enough when you pick your nose where everyone can see you. But she was GOING at it, I'm telling you. I actually realised I could watch her straight on, with head at a 90 degree angle, and she just kept on it. Allow me to share her technique with you :
- Insert index finger up to second knuckle
- Give vicious swivel 180 degrees around
- Allow back of hand to rest on cheek as the finger prods and small protrusion shows on nose
- Retract finger and hold hand up to face
- Flick
- Repeat blatantly until fellow passengers are horrified enough to hock up their dinners
Yes, I really did watch her that overtly and yes, she really didn't give a shit.

You know in Germany digging is a national sport. While they are driving or shopping or just sitting in a restaurant. It still freaks me out after living here for twenty years. Some people just have no damn manners.
Peace
At least she didn't eat them, but where was she flicking them? Not on other passengers I hope.
Stumbled onto this site just thought I would say hi.
OMG! Yuck! There was no way I would be able to watch. I have a kind of weak stomach. I would have gotten sick! Yuck!
Tinker, yes it was a Majoy Yuck but I couldn't stop watching.... morbidly fascinating! lol
Hullo Tawcan, thanks for dropping by!
Vito, she was seated right by the exit door and was sort of flicking them towards the door itself. I made sure I stood WELL back as I got off.
Hey Greg! Really? That openly and, erm, enthusiastically? Damn! I had no idea!
