Disturbing Fingers Diptych

1. During a dinner at Monty's Blue Plate, Erk witnesses the young, fresh tall waiter sniff his fingers tips while trotting towards the diner's counter.
Erk: That's not something you want to see. Although, maybe it's something delectable...
Knnth: A special sauce?
Erk: Cockcheeseburger?
Knnth: [blanch]

2. On his morning busride, Erk spies what look awfully like shitty finger smears on a laminated surface abutting the seat in front of his. It's not as harrowing as the incident of several weeks ago in which Erk sat behind a guy with dandruff the size of rolled oats, but it's captivating nonetheless.
