    Default blowing your nose in a restaurant

    I hate it when people do this, it disgusts me. I guess they have the "right" to do it, I just wish they'd go to the restroom to do so.

    I concur, whenever i have to do that i just hop to the restroom. I dont want people seeing me blow my nose and i dont want to see other people blow their nose.

    I know! It's considered rude to touch your hair at the table, but blowing out mucus in the vicinity of FOOD is somehow considered juuuuuust fiiiiine. WTF??

    My partner does it. I actually kicked him in the knee the last time he did it. And he even uses HANKIES! Oh. My. God... I'm so ashamed.

    I am guilty of this *cowers*

    My nose is constantly running like a faucet; I don't get the luxury of being able to wait until I get to the loo unless I run through the restaurant multiple times in one meal.

    Yeah gross, such a nasty old man thing to do. I'm very sensitive to anything spicy, just a hint of heat makes my nose run. I get up and go to the bathroom rather than blow snot at the table. Nobody needs to know I got boogies.

    I never do this gross stuff, but people who belong to my guy do; blowing nose, clearing throat with audible sounds of loogies, picking teeth with finger or tooth pick, all at the table. FArking NASTY!

    I cant stand people who pick their teeth at the dinner table. My dad does it and I get up immediately and leave the table if he does.
    Blowing the nose anywhere except a bathroom is disgusting IMO and using a hankerchief ew I have never understood that why would u wanna keep a snot filled rag in your pocket?

    Honestly, this is one of biggest pet peeves! Not just in a restaurant, but anywhere in public. I cringe when I hear someone blow their nose and it's so gross and rude! At least go to the bathroom to do it, dang!!

    I just think it's plain gross and disrespectful, especially when people are trying to put food in their mouths. Run to the restroom and take care of it! Sorry, CF.

    I was going to say this, but you beat me to it. My mom used to do this all the time. She now will go to do it and then get up to go to the bathroom when I say something.

    I also hate it when people smack their food. It drives me fucking nuts. It seems like all my guy friends do it though. I am thinking about it and literally all of my closet guy friends do it. They confess they don't do it in the company of girls though.

    What do u mean smack their food? like with the fork? My mum is really annoying with pasta she moves her food around the plate and bangs the fork. There isn't much about other people eating that doesnt annoy me really.

    It disgusts me too. There are different levels of disgust though. "Wiping" your nose is one thing, but "blowing" is another. Whenever I'm in a restaurant and someone does this, I just want to go lay my bill on their table and say it's on you today asshole! No offense CF

    Smacking food is another one of my peaves! How freakin hard is it to close your mouth while you chew? Unless you are stuffy of course. I work with a guy that does this ALL the time. It's like he can't taste his food unless he smacks his lips about a dozen times. Makes me want to reach across the table and knock some sense into him!

    I'm a member of the runny nose club, add in allergy season (right now) and spicy food, and I'm constantly wiping and/or blowing my nose.

    Allergy club member here too. It's under control now, but there were a few months last year that I couldn't help it. I felt horrible blowing my nose at the table, but there was just no other alternative; I would've been running back and forth to the loo between each bite. I did try my best to be as discreet as possible and I avoided nice restaurants.

    The one time I did go to a nice restaurant with family, I kept going to the bathroom every couple of minutes; I would return sniffing and rubbing my red nose, and after dinner my mom took me aside and asked in a concerned tone if I was using cocaine. It took me forever to convince her it was just allergies.

    Michael says he uses a hanky because using tissues is harming the environment. *eyeroll* He seems to never have an answer when I ask about the chemicals it takes to clean his nasty ass snot rags.

    I'm not particularly disgusted by it... but it's rude and I don't do it. My dinner table pet peeve is when people scrape their fork or spoon on their teeth. *shivers*

    People who blow their noses at the table don't bother me even half as much as people who slurp. ew ew ew! I used to dread dinnertime when I lived with my mom and stepdad...especially if there was a pot of soup on the stove. The whole dinnertime would be full of my stepdad going "SLUUUUUUURRRRRPPP!" spoonful by spoonful. ::puke::
