also -- she waited a day to tell her husband? why didn't she text him right at the table like i would have?
Dear Amy: I was having dinner with 10 people at a restaurant the other night. Right after the entree was finished and plates removed the person sitting directly across from me (an adult) promptly pulled out a tube of dental floss and ever so discreetly tore off a piece of floss.
Looking downward and covering her mouth, she proceeded to floss her teeth at the table. I looked the other way as I found this really offensive.
I did not say anything. The next day I mentioned this to my husband, and he told me I was just too picky.
Have I missed something and is this acceptable these days?
