I am so shy to say,
Wanted to be discreet.
Have to tell you about,
The baloney in your teeth.
You have a great smile,
Really turns heads.
But, please I ask of you,
Hide your baloney and bread.
It’s a simple request.
Close your mouth when you chew.
The most simple of manners,
Parents should’ve taught you.
I pretty sure they did.
Maybe you grew lazy.
Thought no one would notice,
That kind of talk’s just crazy!
Again, I beg of you.
In my presence, if you please.
Do what you want by yourself,
Close it or I’m going to leave.

Spot on - even worse are people who talk with a mouthful. But as I said in an earlier posting so few people these days are taught table manners and that's even before we get on to the subject of etiquette.
Could not agree more Michael. Thanks.
Yes it is quite disconcerting . If you notice at all it's a problem . And it's their's until they start spraying food on me like I was a weed . Then it's way beyond my time to leave .
That is pretty gross. I agree swingline! Thanks.
Love it.
Thanks Augustus! It is a real pet peeve of mine. So gross when people do that. 🙂
Good write and so very true. Manners are not taught in this day and age.
