If you've ever been to China, you'll know that people there love to spit. Men, women, children, diplomats, cashiers — everybody spits everywhere, and it's quite disgusting. Snot rockets are also a national pastime. It's so pervasive, in fact, that a first time flier tried to open the plane door during a flight so he could spit. Words fail to capture the idiocy of this situation — should I be appalled that the guy couldn't hold in his spit for the duration of the flight, or should I be shocked that this guy was so clueless as to open the cabin door while in the air?
