Dear Seemingly Nice Man Sitting by Me  

knees.jpgThank you for sneezing on my knees and not apologizing. I know you tried to hold in those two consecutive violent sneezes by covering your mouth with cupped hands. But it didn’t work. I still felt your saliva spray my knee. It’s a cold, wet sensation that I’m sure you wouldn’t enjoy.

Next time, please apologize. Muni Manners agrees that you’re halfway there by attempting to cover your sneeze, but clearly I was an innocent victim, a standby close enough to feel the results of your wet outburst.

Apologizing might have felt awkward, but I’d have mustered forgiveness and perhaps even a smile, a kind “bless you” in return. Remember the Golden Rule?

    This is validation for a Purel sponsorship. They’ve got those dispensers at museums. Why not install them on buses and trains?
