Clearing Confusion

[between]

At some point I posted about a teacher who always hauked tremendous loogies in the staffroom sink, and I wondered if it was because cultural differences or personal "charm." Well, I was sitting here last week talking to one of my students and when he did it, she paused, looked at him out of the corner of her eye, and became so distracted she dropped the conversation for a good 10 seconds. Problem solved: it's personal charm.
