To still feel boaky thinking about this

[BoakFace]

I witnessed something disgusting today and I had to sit and experience it for 40 minutes. I feel sorry for the woman but I am also just a bit sickened.

I had to go to to a talk today, and a colleague of the woman holding the talk sat in front of me.

A few minutes in, she started scratching her head quite a bit. Oh dear, I thought, not very nice, but maybe she has dry skin or something.

Now, her hair was quite greasy, so it was parting to reveal her head quite a lot. The scratching got quite furious, and eventually the hair parted to reveal a weeping red sore which she scratched, picked and squeezed.

I TRIED so hard not to look, but it was directly in my line of vision as I was watching the presentation and I could hear the scratching.

The woman then changed the angle of her head slightly, carried on scratching and picking one of the sores, and then, because she'd changed the angle of her head, I could see her looking at the stuff she had collected under her nails and on her fingers and licking them and eating it from under her nails.

I do feel sorry for her, but honestly I just had to get this out of me, it was horrible to watch. There were so many seats with empty rows behind them, there was a door right next to her, it would have been so easy to pop out and go to the toilet.

I had to stay in the talk, though, and I just couldn't avoid seeing it.

And breathe.

I dont click on anything with PUS in the title when those women were talking about the oozing leg i swear i was going to passout

[Mrsjay]

TBF the op did have Boaky in the title that is an indicator that there will be bodily fluid involved somewhere

[mignonette]

I cannot bear it when people file their nails on the tube then brush their bodily detritus off their clothing onto the floor/other seats.

Furious looks usually inhibits further monkey grooming.....

I think there could have been some sort of warning for this!

I feel sorry for the woman as she obviously has ishoos but it's still yukky!

[ObiWan]

That sounds gross.

I hope you don't have to report back on any of the talk you were meant to be listening to?

[fluffyraggies]

why

did i read this?

[Mrsjay]

Oh good lord that is disgusting i once overheard at a bus stop abut a womans seeping leg sore and how it ooozed pus and bandages had to be changed daily then her the friend and oozing leg sat behind me on the bus all the way to town

[Wuxiapian]

Poor woman. Aside from an incredibly itchy scalp, she obviously has other issues.

I can only feel very sorry for her.

[musicalendorphins]

Aaarrrggghhh!

[HELPMyPooIsStuck]

There's a video on popthatzit of a guy bursting a huge cyst on his face...... as he's squeezing he starts licking the rivers of pus dripping down his arm. Grim.

[bumperella]

Possibly doesn't realise she's doing it? Sort of an absent-minded tick when thinking about something else?

[PropertyNightmare]

Fucking hell. The woman must be fucked in the head to eat scalp juice, especially in public!

[Proudnscary]

'Disgusting sick cow'? Lovely.

[Sparklingbrook]

DS has a friend who scratches. He pulls up his trouser leg and rakes and rakes at his leg with his fingernails. You can hear it more than seeing it. It makes me feel peculiar.

[Fakebook]

I'm sure someone will come along and say how she might be suffering from some kind of OCD that involves itching the same spot in the head and eating the flakes.

I just think she's a disgusting sick cow.

I suppose it might be politer to eat your scab than to flick it on the floor.
