Same, except I can feel hatred bubbling up from the pit of my soul.

Also, when people talk and you hear their tongue moving around, touching the saliva coated interior of their mouths. The old people in Ken Burns' WWII documentary were the worst about it.

When you work in a hospital, encounters with staff that manage airways often cracked me up.

Any gross noises from the patients and they attack the patient with suction and then watch with satisfaction as the phlegm/saliva fill the transparent suction tube.
