Today, on my way home on the MRT after meeting up with the girls, I realised some people have really "different" habits. I was trying to read a book and jumped into the first seat that became available.
However, instead of settling down comfortably into my seat and my book, I noticed that the guy who sat next to me was making a lot of small sounds. And I found out, from the corner of my eye, that he was putting his fingers into his mouth, which is followed by a "pifff" sound usually made when you tried to spit something out with some air force from within.
I couldn't take it. Disgusted, I stood up and took a look at what he was doing. This man in his forties with a round big belly is busy chewing his nails and spitting them out!! How much more disgusting can that be?! I mean, it's okay if he can't kick such habits BUT do it in the privacy of your own home! He was so intensely biting one nail after another and shifting positions to make his nail biting session more comfortable, I wanted to slap him. Yes, I felt really like slapping him because I do not need a person spitting his chewed nails on to me.
Only two things stopped me. (1) It is against social norms to hit and injure individuals (2) his face was oily and full of scars, which gave me an "iiihhhh" feeling at the look of him.
Arghhh, the unfairness of life. Honestly.
