don't eat off the floor then. I'm sitting in the chair, not eating off it -- nm - dogbert Mar 25, 07:59 10
- would you eat in a public restroom? same principle. -- nm - loosilu Mar 25, 08:07 9
  - who the hell doesn't eat in a public restroom? -- nm - dogbert Mar 25, 08:09 1
    - I need to know the name of your hospital, now. -- nm - loosilu Mar 25, 08:09
  - do you pee in the subway regularly? -- nm - oblique Mar 25, 08:07 6
    - Urine is sterile. You've potty trained 2 kids! You never used this as a mantra? -- nm - Amy Mar 25, 08:12 3
      - if only it was just about urine. -- nm - loosilu Mar 25, 08:14
      - urine should be sterile -- nm - dogbert Mar 25, 08:13 1
        
        sfek: unfortunately work has given me the exciting opportunity to see and smell when it's not - dogbert Mar 25, 08:15
    - define regularly -- nm - dogbert Mar 25, 08:09
    - have you ever been on a subway? I promise you the drunks do that. -- nm - loosilu Mar 25, 08:08
if usually comes in its own container, its not like you have to eat it off of the seat... -- nm - znufrii Mar 25, 07:59 18
- I touched things in there, so my hands are dirty. the air is dirty. -- nm - loosilu Mar 25, 08:00 17
  - are you eating with your bare hands? -- nm - znufrii Mar 25, 08:05 14
    - Look, it's just kind of a bad habit, right? e.g. you wouldn't eat in your bathroom, would you? :) -- nm - con_carne Mar 25, 08:09 11
      - why not? Mythbusters proved that aerosolized feces gets *everywhere* :) - znufrii Mar 25, 08:11 10
        
        the bottom line is, the subway smells like piss. It makes me not hungry. -- nm - loosilu Mar 25, 08:12 9
        
        Here, we have a thing with urine smell in the elevator *to* the platform, rather than the subway train itself -- nm - con_carne Mar 25, 08:16 1
        
        the elevator in my friend's old apartment building has this problem - znufrii Mar 25, 08:19
        
        you guys need cleaner subways, that's what i'm gathering from this thread. -- nm - Andie Mar 25, 08:14 5
        
        or stronger stomachs -- nm - dogbert Mar 25, 08:15 3
        
        yeah, that's another thing you find on the subway a lot. - loosilu Mar 25, 08:17 2
        
        I'm going to ask you to start speaking for your own experience only... :) -- nm - con_carne Mar 25, 08:19 1
        
        again ... standard in NYC. -- nm - loosilu Mar 25, 08:20
        
        you've been to NY, right? There's a reason why Letterman has a running joke that the official smell of NYC is urine. -- nm - loosilu Mar 25, 08:15
        
        fair enough. -- nm - znufrii Mar 25, 08:13
    - I thought we established that no fork was involved! -- nm - loosilu Mar 25, 08:06 1
      - there's a wrapper, at least? -- nm - znufrii Mar 25, 08:08
  - stop touching things -- nm - dogbert Mar 25, 08:00 1
    - *suddenly wonders if you wash your hands before examining people* -- nm - loosilu Mar 25, 08:01
