Loud eaters

[icedbullet]

I hate it when people eat loudly, its so annoying. There is a guy where I work who comes in during our lunchbreak in the staffroom. He always tries to sit as close as possible, where he proceeds to chomp down his lunch at a phenomenal level of decibels, mouth open, crumbs spraying everywhere. When he leaves there is always a pile of crumbs left behind on his seat.

We now have taken to pulling the table closer so that he is forced to sit a bit further away, it doesnt help much but at least he can't get so close that he sprays me with crumbs every 5 seconds.

He is still oblivious as to why nobody wants to sit next to him.

I know 2 people who I cannot stand to be around when their eating, its like a pig wouldn't make as much noise, mouth open and teeth chomping away! It's awful.

"ye, i do eat a lot don't i *ngggaanngg ngaanangggg crunch crunch smup smup*"

I bet you any money you won't punch him in the 'faceed', that's why you're on a computer forum venting.

YANBU.

Get back to Mumsnet

And I find loud chewing the high end of the scale of annoying, along with biting your nails in public and over the top personal displays of affection

Just walk up to him, break wind in his face then wonder off like nothing has happened. After a few days of doing this he'll avoid you.

My dad eats loud, but it's not mouth open and chomping. I think he chews his food for too long, you just here squidgy noises and I cannot stand it

It's very frustrating. On par with people who don't know the their/they're/there differences.

Does my nut in to be quite honest. Crisp munching is fine but it's when people open their mouth when they chew and start talking that really annoys me.

Also, what's the deal with these guys that sip beer loudly? It's not a glass of expensive champers or anything!

It's very frustrating. On par with people who don't know the their/they're/there differences.

LOL

My 14yr old brother eats loudly. I just mock him though and he has slowly started to learn.

Mocking solves everything, always.

At least you can't hear them think when there trying to work out what they're response should be.

[twist3d0n3]

[sniffy]

So many whiny bitches. Tell them if it annoys you.

 

[badcompany]

I see what you did there !

LOL I knew someone would pick up on it.

 

[canson1991]

LOL. That would bother me aswell.

Bloody typo, its the POS phone I got

No your right I am far to nice to punch him in the faceed but he makes me so angry.

 

[George Hincapie]

Somebody is sitting opposite me in our tearoom eating a packet of hula hoops so bloody loudly i just want to punch him in the faceed.

Am i being unreasonable?

Yes. Grow up.
