Belching In Public......?

Question

while waiting for my car to have the oil changed I was in a room with about 12 other people. No one was talking so it was quiet. One of the men continued to belch really really loud without saying excuse me.

Of course no one said anything.....but just about everybody gave him a "look". LOL

Would you have done anything different?

What happened to manners?

Answer 1

someone could say really lout "it's there a pig nearby? " or something like that..

Answer 2

You seem to think that humans can always control their gaseous emissions.  Not true.  If you are nervous or drink a lot of carbonated soda you are bound to belch.  If you are lactose intolerant and eat a lot of aromatic food you are bound to release the digestive results.

Answer 3

You should have walked up to him and farted....or de-pantsed him...

Answer 4

no i would have have done the same thing. just give him the look and wait till im outside and talk bout how rude the guy was

Answer 5

If its not bothering you don't say anything but if you do find it a bother and it really is annoying you can always ask nicely for him to please stop or to excuse himself outside as there are others in the room who would appreciate a bit more discretion. If he refuses to then simply excuse yourself and go wait outside for your car and if the employees there question this just explain there is a rude person in the waiting room you wish to avoid.

Answer 6

I hate to hear belching especially if an" Excuse me "doesn't follow.  If you want to make a point, say it yourself and make the guy realize what he has done.  I think it is rude behavior.  It seems parents are failing to raise well mannered kids anymore. Shame on us.
