My friend's a complete wuss

Me & my friend...we'll call him "Jacob" were at the park today messing around & I was walking in front of him & I needed to spit. So I spit there on the grass thinking nothing of it. It's like second nature ya know. He's all like, "Dude, come on, I'm walking here! That's disgusting!" I'm like, " grow up homo." He's like, "I'm not a homo & what you just did is disgusting. Try swallowing next time." WTF?! If you swallow your just swallowing the germs from your spit. That's how you get colds.

Anyone else have any pansy friends?

[Grip72]

i hate people like that..i mean if u make alot of hacking and coughign noises prior to ur spit..its gross...but yeah

i hate it when girls spit/burp

That's what gets to me....I of course make a huge hacking noise before I spit. I do that soo I get all the juices out. My friend had plenty of time to move out of the way.

WTF?! If you swallow your just swallowing the germs from your spit. That's how you get colds.

boy, from now on I think I'll just spit and drool everywhere. I dont want to swallow any germs.

Just out of curiousity, do you believe that cold weather gives you colds?

Of course cold weather is a factor but most germs are contained in the human body's saliva. Also when you have cold, such as I have right now, spitting out the even more germfull cold-induced spit helps rid your body of the cold.

wtf...next time spit on HIM

[IALuder]

lol ^nice.

i never knew that spit cuased me to get a cold. hmm, doesnt matter i always hack that crap and spit it were i please.

Spitting is pretty gross..if you need to do it in public either swallow like your friend suggested or do it into a napkin/tissue.

You will NOT get sick from swalling a tiny bit of phlegm. Your body is designed to take it and thats what the ciliary hairs are for. They collect dirt/microorganisms while the glands secrete the mucus to bind them...this is called phlegm. The hairs then move it down the esophagus to the stomach were the acids kill anything living within seconds...free protein. You think you spit in your sleep? No...you "eat" all your phlegm during that time. (even spiders that crawl into your mouth...people actually eat a lot of spiders that way)

Spitting is a disgusting habbit that should only be done by redneck hicks who chew tobacco, and even they use pots, bottles, or garbage cans in public places.

edit**You know, the only way to get sick from phlegm is to get it on an open cut (either in your nose, mouth or if you fall on some in a park tripping and skinning your knee...) 99% of all colds are caused by viral infections and there isnt anyhting you can do about that anyway.

All my friend's aside from him spit where they please. I'm not carrying around a tissue to spit in. IMO that even gross. Carryout a germ-filled tissue. That's nasty. That stuff is going to start seeping through your pants & make it look like you peed on yourself.

I should have known he would be like that someday. He listen's to Fefe Dobson for cryin' out loud!!!

[pdiggitydogg]

thats called a hanky, most people dont use those anymore
a tissue is thrown away after its use...

This comes down to basic manners and respect for other people...nothing more than that.

You mean a kleenex? That'd be too much to carry around.

I refuse to be homo like my friend. Nothing wrong with spitting. Most guys do. Oh & you can get sick from swallowing. Saliva can contain viral infections.

It's not like I spit right on him.

[GT40FIED]

Your friend is a pussy...plain and simple. Spit/burp/fart wherever you want and fuck anyone who's offended.

He is. I still can't believe I found a Fefe Dobson cd in his car. How gay is that?

[IALuder]

why are we arguing over such a retard subject. its a matter of opinion.

I suppose. Were not really arguing, I thought we were just discussing the matter.

[pdiggitydogg]

thats not the point

Ok, lets take it saliva. MOST viruses cannot even survive in saliva, let alone the stomach. Saliva is fairly acidic and contains enzymes that break down lots of things (it is the 1st stage of digestion). Trust me, Im pre-med and I know exaclty what Im talking about. Unless you swallow gallons of phlegm and saliva you will not get sick from it. You cant even contract HIV through saliva.

Kleenex is actually a brand, but alright, yes kleenex. They even make a neat little product designed for carrying around in a small package. If you carry a wallet you can carry a pack of these.

So not spitting makes you a homo/pussy? Are you calling me a homo because I refuse to spit in public and respect other people then? Thats pretty immature.
If "most guys spit", I surely dont see it. In fact, I know if I asked any of the guys I know about it they would agree that its disgusting.
Do you blow your nose and then just throw it on the ground? Its just thin paper, it will biodegrade in about a day, weather depending...so whats the deal with that? Same thing, except it would be more sanitary than your spit on the ground open to everyone.
In fact, it would be even more hazardous to people around you. When you spit, you spray thousands of particles of water vapor into the air along with the "big glob" for lack of a better word at the moment. If you are sick and that phlegm contains bacteria/viruses you are putting people around you at risk for infection. If a person in that area had AIDs they run a large risk of dying from that infection that you would have given them.
(Granted, that is pretty extreme of an example)

I wasn't saying that if you don't spit that your gay it's just the way my friend acted about. He was all like " That's disgusting" & wrinkled up his nose like a little bitch. He's fruity. I mean for crying out loud, he listens to Fefe Dobson!!! How much gayer can you get?

[pdiggitydogg]

You keep saying that You can get a lot "gayer" than that, buy shoving your dick in another guys asshole. Its just music, it doesnt make you gay.

It is disgusting... Though I wouldnt have wrinkled my nose, I would have said something, for sure, and I would have made you feel like an ass for doing it.

Nevermind...as its been said, its pointless and comes down to opinion (in this case opinion on manners and respect)

Have you listened to Fefe Dobson's music? It's pretty gay for a guy to be listening to that stuff.

[MAXed Out]

I don't know what his problem was!

Bwahahaha...

Go ahead, swallow for a whole day. See if you don't start feeling sick by the time you go to bed.

[Racing Rice]

I'm already sick, and I do spit out the phlegm. If getting sick is your only excuse, its not a good one. If you dont want to get sick you need a bubble or one hell of an immune system. I dont get sick often, but I do occasionally.. Its human nature.

[pdiggitydogg]

You start feeling sick because, yes, if you already have a cold, you are swallowing a more than average amount of phlegm. It actually builds up in your throat at that point.
A sore throat is from all the swallowing of acidic fluids. A good lot of the cilia, that are on the posterior (rear) side of the anterior (front) of your throat, move the mucus down where it hits the epiglotis...thats why you cough. Sometimes too much mucus is secreted and it seeps past/over the epiglotis and ends up in your trachea (granted this is a very minute amount, but enough to make you cough a lot more and to make it feel like you have a chest cold.)
The next time you start to think that youre getting sick from swallowing all this, check the coloroation of the phlegm. I bet more than likely it's clear or white, which would indicate either sinus drainage (white) or a mild allergic reaction (clear) to something you encountered during the day, such as pollen.
Like Ive been saying, you CANNOT get sick from swallowing your own phlegm.

Erm.. Pdigs.. You going to school for medicine?

Trust me, Im pre-med and I know exaclty what Im talking about

Go home moderator....and learn how to read!!! *kicks him out*

[Racing Rice]

You think I have time to read every single post, wise ass!

*Finger on the Ban button*


*jfwy*I thought Pre-med was what you do before you begin to meditate.

Honestly, I dont have time to read everything. I just keep tabs on the trouble makers. Besides, Ive always been a cliff notes student.

[pdiggitydogg]

Yeah Ive stupidly decided to go balls out bio/premed major with my main emphasis on facial structure for plastic surgery :o
Its crazy difficult most of the time. Its easy to remember whats there...the hard part is remembering what things are called.
(A neat thing though is to find all that all of the sensory locations in the body are handled through 12 nerves and only really 2 parts of the brain)

[CD5Passion]

fu&king panzy ass bitch, and you can quote that to him for me
tell him to suck it up, just dont do it infront of a relly hot chick

[ChrisCantSkate]

theres a time and a place to spit, if you spit where i was walking i would say something, if you spit off to the side where i wasnt gonna be walking i wouldnt even think twice about it.

quick question of logic though(i read pdiggs reply and his was the medical reason heres mine)... you say you get sick from swallowing your own spit... but its already down inside of you... thats why you wanted to spit it out, so how can you get sick from swallowing something already in you? and even if it was just in your spit(which its not) your not gonna get 100% of it out in one spit

uh, I do. I never get sick but maybe twice a year. Your whole argument about saliva causing sickness seems pretty empty.

[pdiggitydogg]

(^because it is...)
Just wanted to reiterate the point that if youre making more than average mucus/phlegm/"snot" that is green/yellow youre already sick

i hate drunk girls more then this world.

[pdiggitydogg]

whozawhat now?

[B16DoHcCrx033003]

i agree with GT from the first page, spit, fart, burp, u can even choke right next to me, i dont care, its a natural function. the queen of england does it. you cant help it, spitting is a normal thing, if you have a bad taste in your mouth or eat somthing you dont like.. our body allows us to do it why not do it?

[CD5Passion]

It's polite to burp after a meal in Japan as a compliment to the chef, we should follow the custom

There's a time and place for everything...and it's called by yourself in the bathroom.

edit: I should clarify to say that sometime guys (and some girls) joke around by saying "oh man I just farted a big one" or burp as a competition. It's fine to joke from time to time, but when you're one big spitting, burping, farting machine...I mean, have some respect

[DsBlu01CivEX]

All I have to say is.... I can't believe I actually just sat and read all of this. I hate walking around and seeing big splatter marks left behind from people spitting. I don't want that on the bottom of my shoes or anywhere else. I definitely do not swallow (unless I don't have a tissue) all that sh!t when I'm sick or my allergies are acting up....I just do what Pdiggs suggested and use a tissue. Much more sanitary that way.

The only time I ever spit on the ground was when I was up to bat in softball. Gotta be a lil intimidating while you're up there.....and apparently spitting while in the batters box really messes up girl pitchers

Hrm....Dude...30 some odd posts and you already have one locked thread and your pissing me off big time.
Seems to me like you might have a little problem with gays? Ever look in the mirror? Seems to be your covering up for something? Go ahead..open the door...and walk out of the closet..hahaha

Fuck with friends like you..who needs enemies!
