The Frightening Ambiguity of Etiquette 

Why have burps been ruled offensive, sneezes full of charm?                                Are sneezes stuffed with jollity and burps imbued with harm?                              Burps are often quieted, sneezes loudly blessed?                                                          Are sneezes born of angels and burps of all the rest?                                         What is in a burp that’s any worse than in a sneeze?                                                    For what could auger any worse than snot upon the breeze?
