So speaking, he tossed the cigar into a cuspidor. And Kwaque, leaning back in the queerest chair in which he had ever sat, was unaware that the end of his finger had been burned and roasted half an inch deep, and merely wondered when the medicine doctor would cease talking and begin looking at the swelling that hurt his side under his arm.

Chewed tobacco some stranger spat on the blacktopped surface of a parking lot, causing my father to teach me the meaning of "spittoon" and "cuspidor" so he could tell me a bar joke: One man asks another fellow: How many doors are there in a bar?

However, due to the presence of waxy slips and forms characteristic of the Mamom horizon (e.g., cuspidor), the Swasey complex is now placed by Clark, Cheetham, Inomata, and colleagues slightly later than the other three pre-Mamom traditions, around 850 b.c.

"The New Instinctivism" begins "A proclamation of rebellion against the puerilities in the arts and literature, a manifesto of disgust, a gob of spit in the cuspidor of post-war conceits, a healthy crap in the cradle of stillborn deities."

Doctors are able to Radius-mount a monitor, light, control, cuspidor, and assistant's arm.

Or the famous bullfighter song "Toreador," from the opera "Carmen" ("Toreador don't spit upon the floor, there's the cuspidor, that's what it's for").

His own reminiscences, in Newspaper Days 1899-1906, the second volume of his autobiography, contribute to this image of stubble-jawed whisky-breath glamour, as he recalls the glory days of the Baltimore Herald, where he got his first job at 18 and ascended through the ranks at rocket speed--and where every reporter had his own brass cuspidor and copy boys conducted cockroach races down the center of the newsroom.

The author-narrator had an awful experience of moving into the urban center of Shanghai when she was barely one: she was sitting on a cuspidor in a train--a disgusting container on a classic means of modern migration--because she had diarrhea, and the first place she visited upon arrival was an emergency room.

Lodge, one of Detroit's most-respected mayors, wrote his memoirs in 1949, he reminisced fondly about the days when Detroit had been one of the hubs of the tobacco industry and tobacco use so prevalent that his favorite teacher kept a cuspidor under his desk and the governor of Michigan was a tobacco manufacturer.

As each episode of The Rifleman began, "McCain" would let loose 12 shots quicker than a gob of spit could hit the cuspidor. It is hard to believe, but 50 years have passed since The Rifleman first blasted its way onto our TV screens.

The fact Arsene Wenger has reverted to 'see, hear and say nothing' mode tends to back Hull's claim although in big club v little club, the FA's record is as dodgy as a leaking cuspidor.
