I don't know if I would call it rude, or just plain disgusting!!!
I was in our breakroom at work and I was heating something up in the microwave. We have a tv that is on a corner shelf and I was standing there watching it while I waited. A chick comes in there and heats her stuff up next to me in the other microwave and watches the tv too.. So my head is turned to her and she coughs, right on the side of my face!
Not like "oh I have a tickle in my throat cough."
A full out, hack my lungs out, flying phlem cough.
I wanted to puke.

So, basically my question is.. when you are in public (or at home I guess for that matter) what nasty habits do you see people doing? What are you guilty of?

About the only nasty thing I notice in public is when others won't flush the toilet or wash their hands. It seems that around highschool many other guys have became slack in that way. (eeew!)

People who pick their nose while stopped at a red light. I have seen this a few times. It's like "hello" , your front window is not tinted. I can see you.

Yeah, I never did understand that one. My husband and son are shower blowers.

AT HOME, I am guilty of .......... while enjoying a cold beer also enjoying a good burp. I have been know (at home) to also let one rip. Hey the guys do it and think its funny !!!
I know many guys think that women don't fart or burp, but if we didn't our heads would blow up!

I told my husband (when we were dating) that girls didn't fart. I never did it in front of him until we got into a big tickle match.
Oops.

Scratching and grabbing one's "buddy". It used to be more prevalent when I was growing up - like 'hey, it's still there - gotta check'.

I'm glad I don't see it as much as I used to

Anyone coughing like that should at the minimum cover his or her mouth with a tissue or his or her elbow so as not to spread germs. I hope the person apologized!
I'm also guilty of blowing my nose in the shower... and I do lots of other stuff I'd never do in public when I'm home alone and no one can see me - both in sight and sound ! I have self-contests with pushing the farting limits where I test how far I can go with my cat snuggled up near the mouth of Vesuvius before he finally reacts in disgust and leaves (he's pretty tolerant!!).
