Everything is cultural.  Apparently in Japan, it is considered much ruder to blow your nose in public than to er ahem, how do you say it, ahm, recirculate this bodily fluid.  Some say it's considered a bit like farting in public although the younger generation is said to be more tolerant of nose-blowing.
PS.  I don't like the snuffling either.

Well, speaking of ABC gum.............I was reminded last night of how much I HATE even seeing ABC gum on someone's plate!!!!   :puke;  I sometimes wanna say, "look, if you are saving that piece of gum because it is your last piece & you can't afford anymore, I will GLADLY buy you another pack or give you a piece!"    :puke;    Makes me  :urcrazy;   :rofl;

You can easily judge the character of others by how they treat those who they think can do nothing for them.    I BELIEVE THIS TO BE SOOOOO TRUE!

Why do I hate bell peppers? I will go out of my way to not eat anything with a bell pepper in it. If it even smells like it I cannot eat it.

Thanks KK.  Never heard that before.  Sheltered childhood.  We weren't allowed to chew gum as kids.
