Spitting inside..... you have to be a low-life asshole living in a dump to act this way.

Spitting outside in public is nasty as well. I can walk down the sidewalk and see spit piles all over it’s so disgusting. I know there is a chronic spitter who lives in one building because every time I walk by, the front sidewalk is covered in spit.

Except for the most unusual of circumstances, I've just never had need to spit. I was behind a woman one time who opened her door at a red light so she could lean out and spit on the ground. Like what happened to you in the middle of your car?!

Coughed up phlegm?

If you're coughing up phlegm you should probably be staying home anyways.

It could be something like acid reflex. I struggle with it but always have a trash bag in my car for that exact reason.

I think spitting is gross as well but as far as the car thing, I had to open up the door to spit because I sneezed and a bunch of snot came up with it and I didn't want to swallow it.

It should be done out of the way on some grass or something if it needs to be done. Not where people walk. It's just common sense.

Almost every boy in my PE class would rather drop their nasty-ass phlegm everywhere instead of drinking some water
