To think DP is totally disgusting <boak>

We are on a train. It has been in service all day. I peeled an orange, gave half to DP. In his sleep deprived state he dropped half on the floor. Before I could offer him some of mine he stared at it (breaking the three second rule), picked it up and ate it.

WIBU not to kiss him until he has cleaned his teeth and potentially bleached his mouth. Fuck, he IBtotallyU as, reading over my shoulder, he has just deliberately picked up our only water bottle and drunk out of it.

We still have an hour to go before we get home. This is going to be painful Grin

After reading the title I thought your DH was probably leaving pooey cotton buds around the house... I spend far too much time on MN. :o

HIBU, tell him to bleach his mouth. Wink

YABU

Orange is quite easy to 'dust off'. If it had been a banana then YWouldNotBU.

Pooey cotton buds? Envy < that's not an envy face.

You are right, it could be worse. DP subscribes to the 'I don't care how many seconds rule'. The water bottle was foul play though.

It is more to do with the fact that it's a train floor. From London. He also didn't attempt to dust it off, just put it straight in his mouth.

I have shown him the majority verdict and he thinks you're wrong and he is reasonable. A classic novice AIBU response Grin

Was a thread yonks ago, think it was a troll. Basically saying their DH was cleaning up his arse with cotton buds and leaving them lying around.

I also ran in expecting a poo-troll.

YABU. He'll have a cracking immune system. Give him a snog.

Krumbum · 07/08/2012 01:59

Yanbu. But can someone explain how a cotton bud gets pooey?

toofattorun · 07/08/2012 06:34

A cotton bud can get very pooey when a man has an itchy bum and decides to scratch it with various cotton buds, leaving them all over the house....

DialsMavis · 07/08/2012 07:43

Oh god not from LONDON why didn't you say?! HIDEOUS Grin

lurkedtoolong · 07/08/2012 08:29

Did he say "God kissed it, Devil missed it"? Because that actually over-rules the 5 second rule and means you can eat anything that's been on the floor. But he has to have said it otherwise he's just manky.

Can I be the first to say... Leave The Bastard! Grin

VanessaChin28 · 07/08/2012 10:23

LOL at MrsBonkers 'I'm really skanky'

Yes, he's disgusting. I don't think I'd have let him anywhere near me for several months.

The pooey cotton bud thing has completely freaked me out. Do all men do this? I've never experienced this.
