Pet Peeve(s)

Surely, no one else really cares but I have one definite pet peeve. Out of anything and everything possible, that anyone can do this just irks me the most:

I am sitting in a Chinese restaurant enjoying my lunch with my husband. Across from us is an older couple enjoying their lunch as well. As they are about to leave, they are doing the ritual take napkin from the lap, take that last sip of wonderful beverage, and last but not least let me blow my nose! Why would anyone else sitting in the vicinity want to hear that? It is just gross; you could politely wipe your nose if running some but for goodness sake, if you are going to leave brain particles in the handkerchief then excuse yourself and use the restroom or just wait until you get outside. Lucky for me we were about to head out the door as well.

Okay I feel a whole lot better now that I have had the opportunity to vent that. Therefore, to blow your nose in the vicinity of someone eating, dining or for that matter preparing food is just downright inappropriate.
