Chewing!

Here is a random fact about me.. I don't know if I should call it a fact or a problem .. Well.. It's a fact and a problem . A problem that affects my everyday life. and that is.. chewing. I… CANNOT… STAND listening to people chew their food.. It is my biggest pet peeve! I can't even stress how much this bothers me. In family gatherings like on Friday I focus my attention at anything else and I sing in my head just not to listen because, just imagine the noise of 20 people chewing.. ! The worst part about it.. is that ..even when people know this bothers me, like my family and friends, they try so hard not to make any noises while they chew.. but i still hear it. I think I have super hearing or something , and it's awful. Sometimes i can't eat in the same room because I'm so agitated that day. i know this is extreme , but it makes me want to rip my hair out, and slam my head against a wall.
oh, and slurping a drink (dad) , lets not get me started on that one....... it's so loud I could hear him while am in my bedroom and he's all the way in the living room. Seriously!

Loud chewing is disgusting, especially bubble gum it can be really loud .. I think chewing gum in public is simply rude! I do chew gum in the car or when no one is around I mean chewing gum is fun but it can be very annoying just imagine having a burger bite in your mouth while shopping or walking on the streets, that doesn't look so good does it? It's the same with gum. I only have one friend that doesn't chew loudly (zanob) .. only one! How sad is that.. I guess that’s exactly why I like eating out with her. I believe that people chew loudly just to get people mad because no one is his right mind would think that it's normal or okay.

I can't stand it when people talk with their mouth full, chew loudly, smack, slurp or chomp, or chew with their mouth open and worse of all is when they chomp their food, gulp their drink, smack, belch.. aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah !! and.. then simply take another bite. Ugh.. I mean come on we're not animals!

And the lamest excuse I've ever heard was when you have a new piece of gum, you really need to chew really really hard to break in well and that requires lots of chewing and therefore lots of noises.. Seriously? That’s your excuse?
I'm not trying to be mean or anything. But that's just completely annoying, rude and disrespectful to the public.

  1. Although I might not find it disturbing in any way, the chewing of the food by other people. But I do believe it does fall into the general category of ethics and manners that everyone should abide by when eating in public. Food ethics exist but most people just ignore it. People may do it from time to time just for the hell of it but all the time isn't nice at all.

    Only way to change all that is to let people know that it is disrespectful to burp loudly while your eating and talking while your eating! One step at a time can change the entire world!
