Am on a packed Q train this morning surrounded by sniffing and or runny nosed eejits No one bothers pulling out a Kleenex to blow their noses, but just keeps sniffling and or snorting away. Those who do bother wiping their runny noses do so with back of their hands, jacket/coat/sweater sleeve or whatever.


Coming home it was the same thing but slightly worse as the Q was slow as molasses and *PACKED*


Oh while am on a rant, what's up with all these deep yawns on crowded subway trains without covering mouth. I don't want nor need an up close view of someone's dental work, especially when they are literally right up in my face.

Bugsy, my nose runs when it's cold and/or windy so I am always sniffling without being sick once I'm outside in the winter. Constant wiping of my nose with tissue makes it painful. Plus, I like to annoy you on the Q train.

Nothing is as gross as the hawking and spitting. Especially the dirtbags who do it on the train and/or platform.

That means you need to buy tissues that are soft that's all. I find it incredibly disgusting when people suck the snot back up in their nose or rub it all over them.

I don't leave home without a small 10 pack of facial tissues. I have one in every bag I carry. I have offered tissues to people in nasal distress; most are appreciative.

It's amazing that people are so cheap. In our office, we keep boxes of Kleenex everywhere. People grab non-stop and then have the nerve to b*tch when we run out. Stop being cheap and BUY some. Incredible. They will spend money on $5.00 coffees but not tissue. Furthermore, even the coffee shops have napkins. Take some when you get your coffee.

I use to be for Kleenex but after watching so many thrown to the
platforms,tracks and inside cars I just stick to the old fashion handkerchief.
I blow my noise stick it back in my pocket. Get home. Washer,rinse and repeat.
