| Along the same lines as long talker, loud breather, close talker, and man hands, I have yet another addition: weird noise maker. Many places I go, there's invariably a person sitting next to me who makes weird noises or does something strange. There's a guy in my grad class who intermittently makes some sort of throaty, guttural noise. I would feel bad for him, but I think it's intentional. I mean I think he's doing it to clear his throat or breath through his ears or something. But I don't really think he's clearing his throat because he doesn't make that "Sorry I make weird noises, I have an esophagus inflammation and I'll die if I don't make weird noises" face. So I'm forced to stare inquisitively at him every time he does it, just in case I can somehow deduce what exactly he's doing. #psychology |
