Spitting
Spitting - disgusting. I hardly ever spit and when I do, I do it somewhere discreet and only because I really, really have to. Fortunately, now I am older, I find that boys do not spit so often when passing me in the street.
I dislike having to look at huge gobs of saliva on the streets. It makes me feel queasy.
Unfortunately, Gracie seems to think that spit is quite tasty! Most of the time I manage to drag her past it but today she managed to lick up a big green glob of gob. I heaved several times.
So, spitting should be banned on all occasions unless it is absolutely necessary. Like if you didn’t spit that you would choke and die, or your leg would fall off, or something like that.

People caught spitting on the street should be fined on the spot. Two thousand pounds because it’s extra specially minging.

Grody! It’s the lack of discretion with public spitting that baffles and disgusts me. A man flobbed on the street about ten feet away from me today with a big, noisy horkhocktuey. Really, the sounds alone are nauseating enough. I looked at him like he was filth. He looked at the ground. I doubt he was sorry. Disgusting as that is it is not as bad as holding one nostril down and blowing snot out the other all over the pavement. Truly horrifying. Vancouver houses some revolting folk.

I noticed that too! That blokes stopped spitting near me when I got older! It was a relief.
It’s mostly only low-lifes that do it anyway. I used to wonder if they did it because they knew they’d never stand a chance and it was to show they didn’t care or something.

Spitting and gum - felonies, both.
Flob - eleanor, I’ve not heard that word since I was at school, but it’s a great one, and it’s still in circulation…
