christi: To the crazy woman in the Prius at KmartIn case you have forgotten, pedestrians have the right of way. My 3 year old can only walk so fast. How dare you scream at us to get out of your way. You would greatly benefit from some anger management courses. christi: Are manners a thing of the past?Do parents teach their children manners anymore? Actually, do parents OF children even use manners themselves? Nearly every time I go out to eat, I end up sitting next to some kid eating and smacking with their mouth wide open. It's loud smacking and 'able to see the food in their mouths' wide open. The parents don't even notice it! Some of the parents are smacking right along with them! Hello????? Hasn't this always been an obvious and always regarded bad manner? Why haven't these parents (of teenage boys especially) taught and enforced any semblance of decorum? Is it not important anymore? Is it because they have no manners themselves? Is it because they are some of the many yankee transplants and don't have the same regard for this sort of etiquette? (Sorry, yankees, but those of you that I've encountered are, for the most part, quite rude.) christi: If you haven't already, you really need to see this.Especially if you are a father. I don't normally pass these things along but I think as many people as possible need to see it. It's just awesome. christi: Rude snobby people at PTC WalMartI was just at WalMart in the school supply aisle. It was very crowded. I was walking down the aisle with my cart. A lady left her cart several feet in front of me, walked right to the front of my cart, looked at me, grabbed something off the shelf and proceeded to turn her back and read it. I stood there waiting for her to move and she just stood there! I finally said "excuse me" and she took a few steps to the side without even looking at me or saying sorry or anything! I was baffled! What makes people think that they have to right to be so rude?! christi: Has anyone ever noticed this?I was in Fayetteville yesterday driving through the parking lot at the Pavillion. An african-american lady walked out in front of me looked at me then started deliberately walking very slow across the lane. |
