Uhm...uh... I think I might have some inkling about the source of the...uh...irritation... er... at least I know of a very severe source of irritation that looks like it might be a swarm of African bees... or maybe a gathering of Fire Ants... wonder if I'm right...;-}>

I I I have done NOTHING of course. I have merely been observing behavior that I find astonishingly juvenile and strange in grown people. And it makes me nervous--- like-- what is WRONG with them that they act like this? That they have they have the time and find it entertaining to use it being silly and irritating in a place that it's obvious they're not being welcomed? Not witty, or clever, or bright or creative posts, but intentionally and disingenuously icky?
I can remember my brother sitting across from me at dinner and when my parents weren't looking, he would open his mouth with all his food chewed into a big wad on it--- and of course, I would scream. And he would slam his mouth shut and sit there with these enormous blue eyes and long lashes, and pink cheeks, and sweet face. And they would look at me with a frown. And he would say, "I didn't do anything. She's weird."
It really- I kid you not- bothers me- to see this kind of behavior in alleged adults.
Although sometimes I do it at the dinner table to CW.
