How do you feel?

This has been exasperating me for quite sometime.Especially, when in the middle of something critical that is being addressed and someone next to you keeps coughing and adjusting his throat. Now, this has become a habitual act to that guy as well as to his neighbours. Once he starts coughing there is a group of people around him who do the same. It's funny sometimes and irritating most of the time. Any similar experiences? or any act that gets on to your nerve at work (apart from work) ?

You seem to be sailing in the boat as a few of us do. We shared a very similar discussion sometime back. Perhaps if you are interested, you can check out '
Musical Cough' sometime back in, I guess, it was also Soapbox. Shameless people try their best in spoiling the ecosystem with their sh*t in all ways as possible. I really need a gun to deal such as*h***s with! They spoil the fine fabric of the team, mar our performance, tarnish the tranquility of the ambience besides infecting everyone's health.Vasudevan Deepak Kumar Personal Homepage

Guy next to me kept sniffing. So I handed him a tissue and said 'that is really pissing me off: please stop'. Next time he did I shouted at him. He didn't do it anymore.

We know drinking and smoking is injurious to health. But during occasional parties we do resort to it to have some fun. It is quite similar. In an optimistic view, let us take this as a musical fest. Besides some fun, in a way it was also source of some general knowledge for me, which I have blogged out here: http://deepakvasudevan.blogspot.com/2008/01/online-tamil-dictionary.html [^]

better than farting and adjusting his balls :)
Very Much True. The latter gestures are too very obscene too. We occasionally have rogues in a public transportation (bus) here doing such things and they get a kick in their b*tt only to jump off the bus at the nearest stop of it.

Why do men scratch their nads? Because they can! Boom-boom! Ah, the old ones are the best ones. Oh, and farting is always funny. Regardless.

It cannot be worse than a situation I had: in the cubicle on my left, there was a guy who is deaf since his birth and every sound he made was amplified because he did not realize it was so loud (coughing and retching, for instance). On the other hand, when he went to take a shit, we would all gather next to the toilets door and laugh our asses off, because the guy was pushing hard and it was like GNGNGNGNGNGNNNNNNN, but very loud. :-D In the cubicle on my right, there was a guy with Tourette syndrome. I essentially spent my days with my earphone on. As I side note, I am the one who hired the 2 guys. :doh:
