Ask

I was asking a woman at a gas station for help because the pumps were glitching and when I was finished explaining the problem, she hawked a giant loogie (loudly and purely through her nose) and spat it on the ground roughly equidistant from us and to my left about a foot. We were outside, and it’s not like she spat at me, it seemed to be a mostly biological function, but I was pretty grossed out and offended.

She looked to be in her mid fifties, too, so I really wasn’t expecting it. I haven’t been back to that gas station since, even though it’s the closest one to my sister’s house and the only convenient one between it and the highway.
