Words of wisdom - up the ante on this gross out contest - maybe start clipping your nails like Beth's co-worker.

Re: Colleague next to me
start playing music (if you don't have a radio, play videos on youtube) and sing quasi-under your breathe.

Oh-ho-ho-ho Oh-ho-ho-ho Oh-ho-ho-ho Oh-ho-ho-ho
Everybody was kung fu fighting Those cats were fast as lighting In fact it was a little bit frightning But they fought with expert timing
There were funky china men From funky china town They were choping them up They were choping them down It's an ancient chinese art And everybody knew their part From a fainting to a snip And a kick in from the hip
Everybody was kung fu fighting Those cats were fast as lighting In fact it was a little bit frightning-hell yes! But they fought with expert timing
There was funky Billy Chin And little Sammy Chong He said: Here comes the big boss-where? where? Let's get it on He took a vow and made a stand Started swaying with the hand Sudden motion made me skip Now we're into a brand new trip
Everybody was kung fu fighting-huuh! Those cats were fast as lighting-ha! In fact it was a little bit frightning-huuh! But they did it with expert timing-ha! How? yeah!
Oh-ho-ho-ho-ha! Oh-ho-ho-ho-ha! Oh-ho-ho-ho-huuh! Oh-ho-ho-ho- Keep on - Keep on-ha! Sure now
Everybody was kung fu fighting-huuh! Those kids were fast as lighting-ha! In fact it was a little bit frightning-huuh! Make sure you have expert timing-ha!
Oh--ho-ho-ho Kung Fu Fighting Has fast as lighting
Oh-ho-ho-ho-huuh! Oh-ho-ho-ho-ha! Oh-ho-ho-ho-ha Keep on-Keep on-Keep on Oh-ho-ho-ho Yeah-Yeah

Say something. I would HAVE to. I cannot stand cracking and smacking gum. IMO very unprofessional.
