Sorry, Sophie, I wasn't suggesting you were a booger. Children are so funny with the "things" they discover. My little nephew used to wave bye bye to the poops he did in the toilet as he flushed them away.

Re: Why Do SOME People Spit?
Seriously

sometimes, especially if I've been playing sport, I have no choice

Had a perforated eardrum when I was a lad, which has led to operations and minor problems in the ENT department

Oh btw, check your email tomorrow night or the day after, hon

OK, checked email but zilch there. So, what's the big news. Are you coming over to see me?? That would be cool.

Just don't spit in the street if we go out for a walk. You'll be shovelling up vomit, Mc Haggis. Mine! :jen24:
If at first you don't succeed, perhaps failure is more your style.

For what it's worth, when someone has green phlegm it means they have some tissue damage going on somewhere in their respiratory system (unless they just drank a green Slurpee or chewed green gum.)

Re: Why Do SOME People Spit?
Even 1000 years ago it was considered unclean. Check religious books about emissions. Spit was on the list next to semen, pee, poop, and menstrual blood as unclean.

Matthew 15:11 -- it is not what goes into the mouth that defiles a person, but what comes out of the mouth; this defiles a person.

Even 2000 years ago it was disgusting.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1022652


your exegesis is wrong; this passage is about doing away the Jewish dietary regulation, things coming out of mouth that defile are hurtfull words, evil speech ...


the classic study on BIblical concepts of pollution is Mary Douglas: Purity and Danger.


There is another interesting book, Norbert Elias:The Civilizing Process (Über den Prozess der Zivilisation):

"The first volume traces the historical developments of the European habitus, or "second nature," the particular individual psychic structures molded by social attitudes. Elias traced how post-medieval European standards regarding violence, sexual behaviour, bodily functions, table manners and forms of speech were gradually transformed by increasing thresholds of shame and repugnance, working outward from a nucleus in court etiquette"
[link to en.wikipedia.org]


500 years ago, when European kings and noblemen, Popes and Bishop sat down at the Dinner table, there was constant farting, belching and spitting going on, but gradually they learned to control their bodily functions; and in time, the commoners trying to emulate the better people learned the same.

Spitting is natural, to not spit has to be learned. For instance it's not that long time ago when in trains and public places, spittoons were ubiquitous.


the hockey players and other athletes are always spitting i think it's because they chew tobacco, they don't smoke because it's bad for the lungs, cardio and stamina.

My spit won't hurt you, don't have an attack. And I'm only spitting at you in the theoretical sense.

Because as you know you see spit, also womens B.O. and ass stench, that's from the fatties mostly.

Re: Why Do SOME People Spit?
agreed Jen

it's disgusting!

what I notice is they don't do it when they don't think they're being watched, but as soon as they realise someone's about, haRcCCcccccH PFFFFT

sickening.

i'm a fella, but this habit just disgusts me.

I know. I have a fairly strong stomach, but the green mucousy stuff really makes me feel sick. Especially when it's inches away from me.

Re: Why Do SOME People Spit?
I don't think I've ever spat in the presence of anyone for any reason whatsoever apart from one time when i tasted some really "stale pie". First time a beautiful woman every revolted me. I find spitting to be a disgusting habit, always turns me off too.. yak
