It's simple, why people slurp not only hot beverages but anything from soup to pudin.

I know in Asia is some culture stuff, but outside Asia I just don't get it. You can have a good meal and not make horrible sounds!

[XenodudeX]

It feels better

 

[Weenerz]

I have a better question.

Why do people make shitty threads?

Most people do not have an irrational hatred for a slurping sound. I'm sorry you do.

 

[xbhaskarx]

I do it as a courtesy to the blind people I'm eating with.

 

[The Xtortionist]

One of my friends slurps AND chews with his mouth open. Imagine having to deal with that shit.

Weekend GAF.

 

[Tabris]

Because they are oblivious to the annoying sound they are making.

 

[Chojin]

Hahaha Slurpy Murphy. I'm going to start calling myself that.

Spoiler

I'm asian and my last name is Murphy

 

[DonMigs85]

I also like to suck spaghetti into my mouth rather than twirl it all around the fork and stuff it in one go.

 

[IceCold]

To annoy you.

 

[MrToughPants]

Ssssssssppppppppp

 

[Finaika]

They do it to show the chef that the food is delicious.

 

[Skeyser]

Threads are fucking shitty tonight.

 

[Lamel]

It's more comfortable and doesn't burn your mouth that way.

[spacerumsfield]

In the right context, slurping is nothing to belittle.

Slurping is nothing. What's really annoying is when people yawn like fucking lions. You know, that stuff you see in cartoons where after they yawn a kind of clapping noise with their mouth and tongue. WTF is that shit?

 

[alphaNoid]

Because they are filthy slobs.

 

[Log4Girlz]

Weekend GAF.

Let's start posting pictures of cats.

 

[BadAss2961]

I only like slurping noises when... Nevermind.

 

[way more]

Why bad! Why bad slurp! No bad, bad no.


No do bad no!!!!

 

[AKingNamedPaul]

It is simply an opportune time to toss garbage into their gaping yawnholes.

The real answer is in the way we learn, we slurp or someone slurps becaus they recognized the base pattern. You can pertain this question to pretty much anything

why do people walk
shit on a bowl
sleep in a bed
go to work
spit
clap their hands
jump rope


its all the same

 

[Neki]

slurping helps with hot liquids usually. fuck waiting, eating hot food is delicious.

 

[danwarb]

Same reason people whistle and snore. To annoy you.

 

[Gustav]

The OT has become the bourgeois square wonderland.

Why do you slurp? Why don't you shower two times a day? Why are you wearing cargo shorts? Why are you fat? Why are your jeans too long? Why don't you work hard? Goddamn, you guys are my grandmother times 10. I'm outta here.

 

[SJRB]

Hearing people eat is one of those silly little things that make me rage for no reason whatsoever.

I just can't stand hearing someone swallowing their food or a drink, it just irks me.

 

[Johnny Cage In The Shower]

I have a better question.

[Tenck]

Slurping and chewing with your mouth open are the two worst things ever. If someone is doing either of those, I just go to my room.

I laughed. Reminds me of this post.

 

[xenist]

Because they are inconsiderate, uncultured pigs.

And to preempt the "it differs by culture" defense I say "then go eat with them and slurp all you want."

Slurping is natural, you have to learn NOT to slurp.

That's entirely because they have never thought about it and nobody ever taught them otherwise. They aren't doing it on purpose.

[siddx]

my girlfriend loses her shit when i slurp. I think she's going to stab me death one of these days. To be fair I'm a very loud eater.

 

[Pachterballs]

I don't know about slurping but my houseguest; I can hear him eat from my room upstairs... YUCK. You know the whole lip chomping thing? Gross as fuck!!!

 

[GavinGT]

Slurping serves the very practical purpose of creating suction to ensure that the liquid makes it into your mouth.

 

[Metal-Geo]

Fucking disgusting.

 

[Herbspiceguy]

I don't slurp, but I also don't see what's the big deal when someone else does it. Same goes for when people talk when they have food in their mouth.

 

[Mistake]

The only time I slurp is when I'm trying a hot beverage, since I don't want a mouth full of acid. I can see chewing with your mouth open if you have a cold, but any other time is just rude and annoying.

Bazinga. I like slurping hot soup, eventhough I am from the western hemisphere.
And you don't slurp spaghetti because it gets sauce all over the place, eventhough the feeling of sucking in a noodle is great.
