Table Manners, Politeness and Steel Hankies... geigh?

What happened to please and thank you? In general.


Ok, here i need to admit a bias that really REALLY causes me to instantly judge a person: if you cant handle a feckin knife and fork as an adult... you are a neandrafuck.

If you cant manage the basic functions of tossing up a 'please' and a 'thank you/ no thank you' at the appropriate time, you are a cheeseball.

I am not even getting into the same ballpark as 'let the feckin lady go first, asshole' or 'how fucking hard is it to hold the fucking door for someone your senior' or god fucking forbid i should suggest that somebody 'let them go first'.....


OMG!



Are we a society of cretins? NO, DAMNIT!


Pull out a damn chair, let old folks have your damn seat, let the other driver go first, hold the door for her, let her go first.


... oh... and learn to eat like you're not in fucking prison, m'kay?









Does this post define me as a nitpicky bitch?

So you've gotten a good tates of the DC metro area huh?

LOL!!!

I don't know if its a location thing or a generational thing but its a thing that makes me want to beat people into small piles of goo.

Chef...you just sound like a man with a lot of class. Too many people get off on being rude idiots these days.

A man with manners is freaking hot!

People comment to me all the time because i do those things... sad thing is they wouldn't comment unless it was rare.

OMG!! That is so true about this area. What also kills me about this area is when people ask where you live and then based on your answer try to figure out your minimum income (because image is everything) in their head (yes, they do that).

I hate going to dinner w/ people that don't know anything about place settings (please stop asking me "is this your glass or mine"). I kid you not, I saw (and a few other people on this board) someone floss at the dinner table. WTF!!

Starfish.... hmmmm... i wonder how starfish taste.. sorry, i digress...





I think kindness and sincerity is FUCKING HOT! My lady is a a genuine angel (when she is isnt wielding that damn riding crop... ) and its crazy alluring!


Saint: A sad state of affairs indeed when what is RIGHT is what is RARE. Feh.

Flossing AT the table?

Was it Jessica Simpson or a wanna be? I'd have to confront them on that one.

Oh yeah. Yep, flossing at the table (I can't make this stuff up) and it was a male.

That is clearly some obtuse shit! LOL .... but true psychotic behaviour like that doesnt really even phase me as bad as seeing the VicePresident of the United States pick his nose in public.

I make assumptions of intellectual capacity based upon how people carry themselves... is that normal? I mean, if you cant figure out NOT to dig for tuskers in full view of your party guests, should you really be running the worlds most powerful country?!?!

I do the same thing. Which is probably why I have such a small circle of people around me. What you do in your home is your business; but how hard is it to be a lady or gentleman at the dinner table?
