Re: Why Do SOME People Spit?
I had a son who used to do this. I harped on him for years.

One day we were walking out of a parking spot, and he spat. I turned and planted my huge working man's paw on his nose at about 50 miles an hour. He rolled under a parked car, comes out and says, "gees what is wrong with you".

I told him if he ever spat in public again, the next time it would be a total ass kicking.

He doesn't spit anymore. At least not in my or his mothers presence.

This is a disgusting brain dead, habit that thug or macho males do. They just need to be set into their real place. Which is chickenshit land.

What the hell, you alright?? Maybe you can beat his ass if he ever farts after some Taco Bell.

What's wrong with some of you people acting like guys do this to impress someone? If I fart in your Mother's face am I hitting on her?

What the fuck planet is this

Re: Why Do SOME People Spit?
Please note I said "Some" men before you all come along and attack me, lol.

I was working today and had to go to the shop next door to get some change. A guy came along and I heard the throaty noise first before he grogged up a greenie which just missed my shoe. I didn't say anything to him: I was too busy trying not to vomit from retching. Why do guys do that? Even when I'm driving and stop at traffic lights, I see men winding down the window and projecting some lung filled bodily fluid onto the road, although I think it hits my car sometimes.

Sportsmen, especially footballers, are always filmed on TV just as they spit out. Why? I would have thought that their mouths would be dry from running around the pitch for 90 minutes.

Do men produce more saliva than women. Or more yucky lung stuff. Or does this just happen in the UK?

Sorry guys, but the ones who cough up the groggy stuff and spit it in the street should be shot.

Reminds me of arriving at Parris Island 40 years ago... The busses pull in.. This HUGE black D.I... I mean this guy was 6'5"...Had to duck to get on the bus... had hands as big as Thanksgiving turkeys...just REEKED of the terror to come.
He said: "If you're smokin' put it out in your hand, if you're chewin' SWALLOW it!" Two boys, one from West Virginia and the other from South Calinky went "gulp". They puked on the tarmack about a minute later. Things went downhill from there. And so it began...

Swear to God. They was another one, little Puerto Rican bastard. EVIL INCARNATE! About 5'6", had a gold front tooth. you could hear him HISS when he had a evil thought. He could (and did) jump in the air and damn near decapitate you. The only halfway decent one was the senior D.I. from Canada. He kept the other two from maiming the recruits.

 Quoting: *Jentle*

Naw. I was drafted and ever so many of us were taken into the Marine Corps. They had quotas to fill and the Marines always were needing their quota filled. Some went to the Army, some to the Marine Corps. Draftees went where they were needed. Best I remember, the Navy and most definatley the Air Force were all voulunteer.Long time ago. I don't remember for sure.

Re: Why Do SOME People Spit?
I have spent time with this question, and it is a mystery to me. Sometimes when you walk across a parking lot, you can't help but see the mucous on the ground.

What happened to someone that they decided spitting was a good thing? Is it a lack of social grace, or a general hatred of mankind? Does spitting get them dates? Are there secret spitting societies? Is it a learned behavior, or an unconscious act?

 Quoting: Sophie

It's lack of proper upbringing. We were (my family) considered "white trash"". On the same basic social status as black people. My Father (or my Mother) would have slapped our heads til they rang like church bells if we'd have spit in public let alone in the presance of a lady.

Re: Why Do SOME People Spit?
Honestly, the short answer is, if you have something distasteful in your mouth, spit it out.
It's really that simple.
And most guys don't really give a fuck what you think of them, so they pretty much spit with impunity.

No, no offense taken Jentle. Pee, poo, and boogers are cute for a very short period of time in the life of a child.

I wonder if those who publicly spit are somehow trying to re-live past feelings of cuteness? Acting out in a kind of anal-retentive way, without all the hyper-vigilant busyness?
