Then all I have to do in the lav is quickly dump the spit in the cup into the sink or toilet, which takes just a couple seconds. By brushing my teeth more or less in public, I do get dirty looks from the poor guy in the middle seat, but I figure dirty looks from somebody who doesn't brush his teeth on a long flight, is preferable to scaring the bleep out of the FAs.
