I've recently happened to pass through the large town in which I used to live.

From the moment I stepped off the train, I saw that every few feet was the result of some feral smeghead gobbing on the floor.

It was like a sputal version of Hansel & Gretel.

FFS, what is wrong with people.


Back there today & saw two skanky streaks flobbing as they walked along. Is this the norm in some parts of the UK now?


Not going to mention chewing gum & fag butts.

Have you ever been to China or Hong Kong?

Don't, if you were pissed off in Britain!

Never seen anyone in HK spit on the floor the last couple of times I was there.

We could learn a lot from them. Most people out and about look smart and well dressed. No real obesity problems

Unlike over here where its common to see grossly obese / pyjamas and hair curlers /tee shirts in resturants.

Never seen any of that in HK.

As spottyturbo said, go to China and you'll not only see but hear constant dockyard oysters being coughed up.

It's been the norm for years in the chav culture. Not too sure what it is really. Is it a sign of being a hard man, demanding respect or what?

I remember back in my Uni days walking with a few friends where we went past some chav's sat on a low-ish brick wall. One of them spat right in front of us - he either timed it perfect showing off to his mates or had such little regard for anyone else. Either way we all had to contort our bodies matrix style to avoid it hitting us. They all laughed and the culprit smirked in arrogance. Cue me loosing my temper and giving him a gentle nudge so he fell off the wall backwards. We laughed, his mates laughed and the turd just hung his head in shame. laugh

Were you in Wales or Liverpool? If so it is a result of the language.

I was walking along a terraced street earlier today and a bloke walked out of his house and spat on the pavement right out side his front door.

Disgusting habit.

I can confirm that this is true, as I saw several people doing this when I visited Tibet many years ago, including in a place serving food!hurlvomit

Really? I got into a bit of an altercation with a Chinese guy at Starbucks in HK airport - he was jabbering on his phone turned his head and spat all over the window of the Starbucks. A big proper green flobber with bubbles all over it.

I know the detail as I was sat at a table with my coffee about 1 metre from it. Lovely.
