Lots of coughing and sneezing on the metro train this last week or two. I wish the sick fuckers would stay home. I try to take shallow breaths.

I've got this thing, where if I'm walking behind a herd of people, heading toward the gates, and someone in front of me sneezes, and I know I'll be passing through their cloud of aerosolized saliva hanging in the air, I'll hold my breath for about 20 seconds as I walk past the area and I squint my eyes closed into very tiny slits so the little germ specks don't land on my eyeballs. No idea if it works, but it can't hurt.
