Almost every where I go I have to deal with a disgusting habit. It stops me from enjoying myself at fast food restaurants and normal restaurants. I'm talking about sticky, half dried gum stuck to the bottom of nearly every table in public.
Are people really this lazy that they must hide gum under the top of a table rather than easily getting up and going over to a trash can? It isn't that difficult, people. If you chew a regular size piece of gum you can just put it back in the wrapper when you're done. Well, considering you didn't attempt to throw this, or trash it some place else, that is.
In the past I've gone to my library with family. Occasionally, if I find a good book there about reported sightings of UFO's or Bigfoot, I take it over to a table to read. I sit down and relax, put the book on the table, then put my hands on my lap. But then an uncomfortable feeling falls over me. While putting my hands on my lap, a sticky substance touches my hands from the table above. It is non-other-than a disgusting, black, polka-dotted piece of gum. Far nastier than anything my eyes have ever seen. What kind of indecent person would do this? This habit is horrible.
Gum is delicious. I know; I chew it every now and then. But I would never put it under the top of a table. I actually know that the table will have someone sitting there in due time. I have mercy on the person who will sit there. I'm not just being nice, but thoughtful, and not lazy. I actually throw the gum away. This habit can be broken easily with will power and the strength to get up from a seat and throw used gum where it belongs: in the trash.
