BosoxI Posted May 31, 2010 #1 Share Posted May 31, 2010 I know threads on passenger conduct tend to get tense, but my experience on the Emerald this past week is a first for me at least. I'm at my balcony railing talking to the guy in the next cabin, a fellow in his 30s, I estimate. Without warning he steps back and spits on his balcony floor then resumes our conversation. He does it twice more before I excuse myself. Now, believe me, I've worked construction jobs, I served in a combat arm with some pretty tough guys, and my good friend of 40+ years is as rough as they come. So I'm used to similar behaviour but never in my wildest dreams would I expect to see someone spitting on the balcony floor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhoneGoddess Posted May 31, 2010 #5 Share Posted May 31, 2010 That's really disgusting but imagine if he had spit over the railing and the wind carried it onto another balcony and possibly on someone! :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boating girl Posted May 31, 2010 #6 Share Posted May 31, 2010 That's really disgusting but imagine if he had spit over the railing and the wind carried it onto another balcony and possibly on someone! :eek: I agree with you. That was my first thought when I read it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCC retired Posted May 31, 2010 #7 Share Posted May 31, 2010 Perhaps he spits over the railing when he is not talking to you ?:mad: I'll bet he never washes his hands upon exiting the restrooms either.:eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pearlbill Posted May 31, 2010 #10 Share Posted May 31, 2010 A lot of behaviour at the buffet. Finger licking and then grabbing a serving spoon. Yech! Pearl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donaldsc Posted May 31, 2010 #11 Share Posted May 31, 2010 At least you found out that he was a slob early in whatever relationship might have developed. DON Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhoneGoddess Posted May 31, 2010 #14 Share Posted May 31, 2010 Ok I forget which board I read this on, but a man with false teeth took out the teeth after eating dinner and licked them clean, right there at the table in front of everyone! :eek: That has to be the grossest thing I have ever read about on these boards.

DrivesLikeMario Posted May 31, 2010 #17 Share Posted May 31, 2010 Yuck. The sad thing is he doesn't even realize he shouldn't have done it. Guess it could've been worse - he could've spit on the balcony cabins below his. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toto2Kansas Posted May 31, 2010 #18 Share Posted May 31, 2010 Sounds like you had at least one of those Walmart people onboard you cruise! (referring to the 'people of walmart' picture emails I receive on a regular basis) ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

debates2 Posted May 31, 2010 #20 Share Posted May 31, 2010 My first thought was he did not want the wind to carry his spit in your direction. I'm also thinking chewing tobacco. The false teeth posting topped OP's post. I think my jaw would have dropped to the floor had I witnessed that display. And not all Wal-Mart shoppers have bad manners. I love shopping at Wal-Mart. It beats the high prices of Harris-Teeter or Simon David. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bhopal21 Posted May 31, 2010 #23 Share Posted May 31, 2010 Well, at least he didn't pee. He did that behind the divider.:D And the rest of his family was onboard The Emerald with us on February 14th. Mike:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jagsfan Posted May 31, 2010 #24 Share Posted May 31, 2010 Can't believe that behavior on a Princess ship, Carnival yes, not Princess.:rolleyes: Gee, I wonder what kind of people you think book on Carnival. Having sailed on most major lines I haven't noticed much difference between the passengers on any of them. A lot of people on the Princess boards also sail on Carnival, does that make them more uncouth? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
