I was packing yesterday and whacked myself in the head with a belt. Amazingly there is no bruise yet!

Got to agree with WD about decent manners. Always attracted to a guy who has them - quite a rare specimen these days

People with terrible manners are not worthy of my time. That's my rule. I see so many disgusting, horrible people on a daily basis that when I see EVEN A CHILD with good manners ... I'm just glad they exist. People with a suitable set of manners are better than people who don't have them/don't care enough to use them.

Shitty manners = shitty humans.

Keep in mind that although it's no excuse, someone with bad manners is usually a case of never being taught good manners properly. However, if they're old enough to know what's right and what's wrong, they can learn good manners, as is why I said a parenting flaw is no excuse. Just throwing that out there.

I think most people would have been taught to say please/thank you at the very least (especially from their school teachers) and though they probably hadn't retained all the little things (e.g.; my grandparents would snipe at me if I even put my elbow on the dinner table and I can guarantee you've never seen me do that) they were taught to be proper etiquette, I've met several people who don't even say please/thank you/excuse me or use the terms Miss/Ma'am instead of saying "HELLO? HEY, YOU!" or some other totally gross/hideous thing to get my attention.

Some people were obviously not taught some of the less-common things associated with good manners, but there are some things that are absolutely fundamental.

You two do realize that you can converse in real life, don't you?

We're busy doing different things in the same room, essentially.

Park your jealous bat-buns in another thread, son.

I'm sorry, what? I was too busy texting my mother in the living room to bother reading your post.
