If you chew on campus....

Be a man and swallow. I don't want to hear you spit every 30 seconds. Or don't do it in Parks because it's really quiet there and your disposal of Skoal supernatant is distracting. Hell, I used to chew but hearing you spit is just sick...

I used to chew in the library all the time when I was there, however, I was quiet when I was spitting. No sound at all. The worst part was hearing the cap getting screwed off and back on.

Yep, then I'd light a smoke as soon as I got out of the building. Good times

I do that sometimes when I have to be inside for long hours. But, for somebody who chews regularly, like myself, it just doesn't give me the "pleasing" feeling that a regular dip does. It's kind of like chewing pouches, I have to have 2-3 of those in my mouth to have it do any good. It's kind of like having a cotton ball in my lip. I need the real stuff to satisfy my craving.

Right on. Used to smoke, loved it. Nothing better than a post/mid-study smoke break.

Coming from a guy that is an ex-smoker, still-chewer:

You have the bars. Used to be filled with smoke. You probably used to ***** about the smoke in bars. But it used to be part of actually going to the bars. Now it is banned in the bars, understandably. Probably better for you. No smoke in your face, even though it used to be the standard for any bar, anywhere.

But if somebody chews, and spits in front of you, is it really that bad? Impolite, yes. That big of a deal, no. No effect to your health. Just rude. Spitting is rude, but not a big deal. Grow up.

As a non-chewer, cup spitters drive me nuts, but if they at least use a bottle I am happy, cause I don't have to smell it, big deal if they make noise when spitting, hearing doesn't matter as much as smelling to me.

Chew spit is one of the most digusting things on the planet. For those of you who do spit into a bottle, don't do it into a Coke or and other dark pop bottle. I watched a guy drink chew spit once, thinking it was his Coke...

**Cycofan1** · 01-15-2010, 07:26 AM

I don't do it, but how do you guys pack it.

I ******* abot smoke in the bars. Hated it and didn't go to some bars because of it and it wasn't "part of actually going to the bars." That is a silly statement. Hated it more in the AM when my room smelled like a ******* ashtray. Don't think the ban is right but love it. As for chewing spit when and where you want.

Chewing in and of itself didn't bother me. That's your choice, a stupid one but yours to make, and your right it doesn't really hurt anyone else. But I will say that people that chewed on campus did seem to be more rude about it. I say this because I spent two summers working at a MN DOT field office and EVERYONE there but me chewed, but I never seemed to see any of them spit. At ISU, however, I could tell you within the FIRST WEEK if somebody in one of my classes chewed. It is apparently not that hard to be discreet about it, so just do that because it is disgusting to people who don't do it.

I don't really care if you want to chew on campus, but I don't like getting stuck behind someone who smokes like a chimney. I don't even mind if you smoke, as long as you don't smell like an ashtray that got lit on fire.
