Carrying a hanky

[MR. BMJ]

Does anybody still do this? My dad does and he was telling me he got into the habit since he was a young kid. He has like 2 dozen of them. We were laughing about it last night at dinner.

My Dad did too. I think it is a nasty, unsanitary habit.

My grandfather did that. I assumed it was because kleenex wasn't invented yet.

Slic.

Lies, I eat the black jelly beans and give the purple ones to the kids.

I used to carry one as a kid but haven't since about Freshman in high school when @Mike_RN bullied me and stole my hankie collection.

My best friend carries one. I had to recently confront him for blowing his nose at the table while we're out eating. Fucking disgusting and rude. The first time he did it was a couple of years ago at a restaurant my wife manages. He blew his nose at the table into the restaurant silverware towel! I don't think I've turned so red out of embarrassment at a public place as that.

Oh my, how uncouth, my sincere sympathy for your embarrassing moment -- I used to always carry a hanky in my purse but the hanky was never for nose-blowing but only to wipe away tears -- in church, at weddings, in the theater during sad parts -- sad tears, laughter tears, never for nasal passage mucus. Small kleenex packages make the hanky obsolete now but I always knew that a man might carry a bandana in his back pocket for wiping his brow/neck/hands (and possibly his nose) but a gentleman only carried a clean handkerchief not for himself but to chivalrously offer to others - specifically women in his company who might need to wipe away tears if she didn't have her hanky with her! People no longer know proper etiquette and gentile manners (sad).
