You're Having a Chat with Somebody...

[Glassman]

...and you can see/feel little flicks of saliva spitting from his/her mouth...

You've only just met this person and that little flick of spit that landed on your shoulder is just the beginning. With each short sentence, he/she is getting nearer; one has just landed on your hand (the one that you're holding your coffee/drink with) and as the converation picks up pace, so does the frequency of these droplets from this oral shower-head.

You've just felt one land on the side of your neck... and it's only a matter of time before you're about to have some of his/her saliva land on your face....

How do you deal with this situation... what do you do?

[redtwin]

Move back or end the conversation.

[hornetrider]

Get out of his range, bro!

[philthy]

Take your cock out, and piss on their shoes?

Seriously, back up a bit. If necessary, tell them.


.....have you been talking to Naffa?

You been meeting with Blib again Glassy?

[sleep envy]

cough in their face and act is if nothing happened

[Glassman]

I suddenly became aware of this when I was talking to a man at a seminar. Place was packed and you just had to stand close in order to hear what each other was saying.

This bloke was an insurance broker and (and potentially a good contact for me) when all of a sudden, I could feel may face becoming in range of his showering mouth. This made me feel a bit on edge and every time he started a new sentence I would turn my head as if someone had just tapped my shoulder.

It just makes the whole thing very uncomforable because I thought that he must know, or can see he's doing it. As soon as it gets mentioned, the apologies and 'it's ok' start. I'd rather not be in that position because there arent many who will appreciate my directness in these situations.

Doesn't everyone spit a little bit, maybe not on a regular basis but y'no a couple of times over the year?

No?

Oh...

[motco]

It's the accumulation of frothy spit in the corners of the mouth that really worry me!

[Nolar Dog]

"Stop spitting on me"

....and you find yourself transfixed on the white frothy bit... at the end of some words its stuck to the top lip, and the bottom lip at the end of others..

It's like having a conversation with a bulldog.

Sorry.

[sneijder]

Tell them you wanted the news not the weather, or ask them to say it, not spray it.

[stormrider2]

just do it back. he'll move out of range of you and hence saving you the effort of moving yourself.


or alternatively. just cough up a big one and fire it in his face.

There's a bloke who gets in my local has a habbit of chewing peanuts as he's trying to make conversation, It's like the start of "saving private ryan" if your the unlucky one he's talking too.
