Yep Bilbo knows where I stand on this. Spitting in the street is a filthy habit. Spitting in the street is something I only ever really began to notice when I moved out here. Korean man contantly spit everywhere. Honestly, I don't think I have walked anywhere without encountering at least a dozen different men all spitting violently to the ground. I've even seen women do it and elderly women too. They just hawk it up and spit it right out. Absolutely vile.
The funny thing is that if you have a cold and blow your nose, you are then the one accused of having a dirty habit. I regard a lot of Koreans as farmers in suits. The peasant habits just refuse to go away.

Of course, I never spit in the street and have no desire to. I just don't see the point, though Andre does make a point that you might need to if breathing in lots of dust and shit. I don't really recall all that many people spitting in the street in the UK, but judging by the number of fatherless inbreds that have grown since I have been away, I am sure the numbers are now quite fearful.
