People squirt a well-aimed stream of snot onto the ground, into cigarette sand-stubbers, and so on. And sniffle and snort. Which is worse? Who am I to say?<BR/><BR/>But it does drive me mad (I have somebody at work who does this, and its gross). What's so wrong with a tissue? And why do the women put up with it instead of saying "hoi, tosser, blow nose or I'll blow off?"<BR/><BR/>word versification: inschit.<BR/><BR/>I'm CONVINCED that google (owners of blogger) are analysing the post content and then presenting mangled words appropriate to the content.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14994418.post-13014025858274055252009-03-20T13:00:00.000+01:002009-03-20T13:00:00.000+01:00We don't really have safe public transport, so whe...We don't really have safe public transport, so whenever I go overseas I go a bit crazy with the people-watching. I've only ever been on a tram once, although I go on buses a lot...<BR/><BR/>People-watching at the ice-rink is a lot of fn though - body language is very much more exaggerated...Helenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00098708210972869491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14994418.post-27741059797012761052009-03-20T10:14:00.000+01:002009-03-20T10:14:00.000+01:00Thanks Benjamin - your imagined discussions would ...Thanks Benjamin - your imagined discussions would be great to read - I'm sure they'd be pretty accurate.<BR/><BR/>Ah, so her daughter and partner could be Indiana Jones' fans? Still doesn't seem acceptable though.<BR/><BR/>Agree with you totally, River. Hearing that slimy stuff get inhaled back up the nose and down the throat makes me feel ill and wonder just why the hell nobody else seems to mind.Kath Locketthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09677312773827236567noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14994418.post-29166774931348247532009-03-20T05:31:00.000+01:002009-03-20T05:31:00.000+01:00Ergh!

Mostly the older ones, some young blokes, even an occasional girl/woman. Didn't their mothers teach them how to blow their noses? What's become of society in the last thirty years? (I hear the same sound coming from my own couch, daily. If I'd known then what I know now, I NEVER would have brought him home...)Riverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14794655013673748992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14994418.post-17660769101695958902009-03-19T23:24:00.000+01:002009-03-19T23:24:00.000+01:00Henry is Indiana Jones' real nameIndiana - IndiaCl...Henry is Indiana Jones' real name<BR/>Indiana - India<BR/><BR/>Clearly Reggie is a fan.<BR/><BR/>Is it just me or are the verification words getting funnier?<BR/><BR/>(Rob here by the way - but wasting time pre lecture)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14994418.post-66587704408085617162009-03-19T23:06:00.000+01:002009-03-19T23:06:00.000+01:00I like these posts.

As someone from Sydney, trams are still a novelty to me even after living in Melbourne for almost a year.<BR/><BR/>I ought to provide my own 'tram talk' posts. But I usually have my iPod blaring so can never hear what people say, just imagine what I think they're saying by their body language.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
