The original topic is about an odoriferous Canadian who was kicked off an airline flight after offending all the other passengers.

4. I once sat next to a guy who picked his nose through the entire flight.
What could he have digging out of his nose for 2 hours? People can be really disgusting.
I took a long hot shower when I got home.

83. And to be fair, it does take time to get the good ones out and put the other ones back

15. What silly prudery!
It was his nose he was picking not yours, right?
Did he wipe the product of his personal cavity search on you?
My GOD people will be wearing unstarched collars and suits with only two pieces next! What disgusting behavior!

18. Are you serious?
He would dig in his nose and then lean down and flick whatever he found. It could have been going EVERYWHERE!
And you realize airline seats are very close together? With no room to move away from the offending crap from his nose?

38. How do you feel about shaking hands with someone, who hasn't washed thier hands afer using the restroom ? Don't mind having a handfull of thier business ?
What if someone shit thier pants and sat next to you, as long as he shits all over himself it dosn't affect you right ? Where do you draw the line ? Personal hygene is a pretty reasonable expectation, it's not "prudery", I hope you're joking.
Dirty, smelly people are offensive and I don't blame the other passengers one bit.

29. When he's flicking the boogers everywhere it becomes MY business.
I can't believe how judgmental some people can be when OTHER people are grossed out.

67. then why didn't you ask him to stop? or at least ask a flight attendant to?
btw- 'boogers' are 98% water.
and- did you ever stop to think that when you're on an elevator, or an airplane, and you smell someone else's fart- it means that molecules that used to be in that person's colon are now bouncing around your sinuses...?
It's a big campfire, and after a while, the subject changes from nose-picking passengers to diaper-changing passengers, and on to flatulating passengers.
The condition of the Bostonian Drunkard (boryborygmia = constant involuntary release of gas from the nether regions) and of Pedro Picasso (trimenthylamunia = the body odor resulting from dining on dead fish), are brought up, even though neither primitive shows up at the campfire.
It's well worth reading in its entirety at the link above.
