Spit or swallow?

[jefmcg]

15 years old, on a double date with a friend and her boyfriend. She bought me along, he bought his best friend. Australian blowie flies straight in my mouth, jammed in the back of my throat, buzzing furiously. Two choices, (hawk/gag/possible chunder**) the thing out, gross out everyone and bring the afternoon of tennis followed by possible pashing** to an abrupt halt or quietly swallow the thing, and just have to live with the memory of it buzzing down my oesophagus for decades.

<shudder> not sure it's not still somewhere inside me</shudder>

**keeping the aussie slang consistant. Unrelated but amusing fact: the teen word for hottie in oz when I was growing up was "spunk" It didn't have any other (slang) meaning, just made UK visitors laugh.

Spit every time, just be a bit respectful where you spit, i occasionaly spit excess saliva,but on the left side,the pavement and between my arm and leg so it doesn't catch the wind.
If athletes and footballers can do that disgusting thing with there nose on tv then i'm sure a considerate spit won't upset anyone.

Sorry for the title of this thread but was riding today and whilst cruising along a HUGE bug landed in my mouth...it was horrible (felt like an albatross but probably wasn't quite as big!!!). I immediately started to spit it out but the cyclist coming the other way shouted, 'You're disgusting mate'.
I did want to retort that I don't spit normally but he'd gone. When I got home was talking to a mate and he agreed with the other cyclist!
Is it me or do people just see it as a protein thing???

My ex spat, thats why shes my ex.

When cycling my nose develops tonnes of snot. This snot has to go somewhere so I blast it out onto the road. I heard on this forum somewhere they call them "snot rockets".
