Bad Manners

[infinite monkey]

Eating while being waited on at the desk.

Eating while walking (unless you're at, like, the county fair...sit down for a second and eat.)

Really, any eating I have to witness or listen to. It's gross.

Spitting on the sidewalk (why do I want to walk through your goo?)

Not holding the door for someone close behind you.

Not participating in the bob and weave of passing someone who is walking the same path as you but in the opposite direction. Oh, yeah, I don't get out of their way when they play that superiority game. They make no move to move, I make no move to move. If we bump, I wait to see their reaction. If it's accusatory, I have words for them. Have some respect and be aware that others live on the planet and in reality are NOT beneath you, not by a long shot.

Leaving Wendy's and turning the impossible left turn, but taking up the left and right lanes to do it, so no one can make a right. This holds for intersections and such, too. Oblivious and stupid? Or rude and uncaring? Both, probably.

If asked where the pharmacy is in the store, I will point as well as direct verbally (if there is a queue I cannot leave my till).
Pointing may mean something different to you.

Nanny considered this rude too. It came to me via her and Mum.
I'm less strict about it now, but I do still suffer some discomfort if circumstances require me to eat on the move (including nowhere to sit and/ or time constraints). Our family exception is at the seaside, which I guess has the same flavour as a county fair.

Chips (fries), ice cream, hot dog, donuts in a bag etc.
