And, a lot of Westerners don't think twice before blowing their noses loudly and conspicuously, anywhere and everywhere, including while eating. I know ofcourse that it is not meant to be insulting, but a lot of Asians could be quite put off :-)
Farting in the elevator, believe me, is nothing :-) You could get away with it by saying 3 Hail Mary's :-) Blowing your nose loudly at the table would get you, at the very minimum, saying the full bloody Rosary :-)
