Spit Bath

On the commuter rail this morning a husband and wife boarded the train. The train was packed so by the time they got on, there were no more seats left so they stood in the aisle near my seat. I thought it was so sweet of them to commute together. The woman was dressed in a lovely black pea coat and light blue scarf with matching gloves. The guy in a camel colored pea coat with a matching Burberry scarf. How cute right? WRONG! Ladies take note as this unfolds. They are chit chatting about their son and how cute he is and how he can count and what he did this morning in the high chair while she was in the shower. Blah Blah Blah… heart warming really. Until she does this: She notices the guy has something on his face. She removes her powder blue glove, licks her finger and uses that licked finger to clean it off his face! The whole train sees that. Business men, this poor guys piers, see that. NOTHING crushes a mans ego like the licked finger cleaning approach. Ladies, I know it’s a “mom instinct” to do this and fine, do it to your kids (and I can guarantee they hate this too) but don’t do it to your man. Keep him a MAN! Don’t flush his ego down the drain in front of piers or even in the privacy of your own home. This tactic is strictly for kids. Not for grown men.  That’s it. The End. Don’t clean your man’s face with your spit!
