A rant against toothpicks (low content)
 
If you are a B&M player who plays with a toothpick in your mouth would you kindly consider stopping that? Please? Especially if you're a woman. And for Heaven's sake, if you absolutely MUST have a toothpick dangling from your mouth while playing could you at least take the damn cellophane off of the damn thing? TYVM.

For those of you who hate this look please spread the word.

The look I hate is cigarettes dangling from mouths. Toothpicks are heavenly by comparison. Boy, you must not have much to worry about in life [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

There was a guy tonight who had peeled off just enough of the cellophane to chew on the end of the toothpick and I could barely restrain myself from reaching over and snatching it off. So you see what I've got to put up with? Things are tough out there!

And you've got to admit, the look is horrible for women but some do it anyway.

I enjoy a post dinner toothpick as much as the next guy, although I always have it out of the wrapper. So you hate me too?

I don't mind the toothpick chewing.

I **HATE** having to pick up the damn things. Don't leave it on the table when you're done with it.

I too hate the Sammy Farha types, in fact I pretty much hate all smokers with a passion. It's so great that smoking is banned entirely throughout my local casino, bars included.

Isn't the mouth-work a tell?

The bigger the cans the less you notice if they have a toothpick.

I have never even seen you eat at the poker table. Since I like you you will get a pass on the toothpick. I'll try to look away. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Besides, apparently it's not an 8 hour toothpick so it's not as bad.

More of that Nascar dad, toothless inbred yahoo bashing? I see the same at the B where the 'high class' players play. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

What's worse is people who chew/dip at the table and spit it into an empty water bottle. So disgusting to have to see/smell that while you're eating. Blehh.

I used to chew toothpicks a lot at the table but haven't recently. I brought my own box, so cellophane wasn't an issue. I think I may start again....

I can live with gum, toothpicks, and Farha wannabes. Having some guy with hot, rotten "dead fish" breath in seat 1 is the worst.

QFMFT. How in the WORLD do people ever get breath that even resembles this? I'm pretty sure I could eat corpses everyday and not brush my teeth for a month and my breath would be better than some of what I've had to endur at my local B&M.

I usually bring Altoids with me for exactly this reason.
