    My office mates eat like animals. One has a permanently wet chin as he likes to stick his entire head into his drink and another takes one bit of food at a time from the plate, drops it onto the floor and then eats it. They also *never* help get any of the coding done and mainly just chase each other around the office and sleep.

    I'm not certain if you're talking about a dog or a teenager ... :rolleyes: D.

      I'm writing this while I listen to a veritable symphonic orchestra of lip smacking, slurping, finger licking, clicks, clacks, and other soft tissue noises coming from the cube across from me as my neighbor eats his lunch (this is the same buddy who likes to have a good post lunch self-grope as he re-arranges the family jewels). As I look over I see he has now stood up because he has apparently dribbled food in his lap (bits of rice and General T'sungs chicken are falling from his pants). Sigh. Does this kind of thing annoy anyone else? It's incredibly annoying to listen to, what I wouldn't give for a cone of silence to drop over his cube... ¡El diablo está en mis pantalones! ¡Mire, mire!

          I had a roommate in college who always ate while smacking his lips and slurping his soup and drink. According to him, it's normal where he's from and annoyed the s*** out of me. "If only one person knows the truth, it is still the truth." - Mahatma Gandhi Web - Blog - RSS

            Dog and a cat. My cat's a bit strange. Not only is he deaf - I call him by stamping on our hard-wood floors - but he dips his paw into the dish and flicks one bit of food at at a time to eat :rolleyes:

              1 dog, 1 cat. Actually we have two cats, but the older one doesn't like to play so much.

                I am very self conscious of eating and how noisy it could be... Even to the point of eating peanut brittle so slowly I probably burn off the actual calories just from breathing during the process (yes, that slow). Mac and cheese the ultimate silent food. :) I like having my own office at work, I don't have to deal with this. Though I do dislike it at the movies. _________________________ Asu no koto o ieba, tenjo de nezumi ga warau. Talk about things of tomorrow and the mice in the ceiling laugh. (Japanese Proverb)

                      Cool. I thought that was something just Otto did. By the way, I know Otto's a dumb name for a cat, but he was a "rescue kitty" and we let him keep the name he had :)

                            Amen! I have sadly ( :(( ) had to give up Mac & Cheese. And I am now having to try and burn off a 20lb spare tire that's accumulated over the last 5-6 years. ¡El diablo está en mis pantalones! ¡Mire, mire!

                              Are you sure the cat is deaf and not just being, well, a cat? ;P Josh Find a penny, pick it up, and all day long you'll have a back-ache...

It's a conspiracy, I tell you! They serve noisy food, so they have an excuse to turn the volume up just a bit too high. Later, they get payoffs from the hearing aid companies who also own the popcorn supply company... ;P John

                                  I have absolutely no idea why, but the loud sounds of other people eating (smacking lips, gulps, various releases of air, all the toungue and cheek noises let loose on the world when you don't shut your frikkin' mouth while eating) make we want to start kicking throats and gouging eyeballs. An idiosyncracy of mine... On a related note, I have the same reaction to commercials that present sounds of various digestion phases. Mmmmm! I can hear that crunch of the lettuce and slight squish of the tomato as the prom queen bites down on the juicy Burger King delicacy! Awesome! It's like there's a microphone in her throat - the sounds of food being mashed up and slapped this way and that down the digestive tract is so appealing! I must have a Big King Deluxe now! It's a shame that they stopped at the esophogus, as my appetite would have been further whetted if I had gotten to hear the internal gushings of the food being moved from stomach to intestines, and eventually expelled. YES! DIGESTIVE SOUNDS ARE AWESOME! PLEASE WIRE THE ENTIRE DIGESTIVE TRACT AND LET ME HEAR EVERY BIT OF YOUR DELICIOUS FOOD PRODUCTS BEING DIGESTED! As you can see, I have a bit of a strong reaction to this, for which I make no apologies :-O [Edited for spleling mustakes]
