Unwritten rules...

Re: Unwritten rules...

For me for sure and some others may follow this rule is that I never take a duimp in a public restroom. I only do it at home or in my hotel room. I never know whats been on the seat and the last time its been cleaned.

I would rather take a dump in a public stall then my pants. When you gotta go you gotta go. Of course if I can hold it I will wait til I get home, but if not I'll take my chances and make sure the seat looks clean.

All the recent bathroom posts now remind me of my old thread:

Reading the post of Alex Brady, his dad is plain pitiful and moronic. [Not to be mean but read the post]

Re: Unwritten rules...

Maybe just a little. I'm not the kind of guy to follow someone for 20 miles for doing me wrong, but I'll honk my horn at the drop of a hat...my wife hates it. She thinks I should wait like 10 seconds at a green light before honking if the car in front of me does not go. I think they should get a solid 2 count (one one thousand, two one thousand). By then, I can look and see if they have realized the light is green and if not, they get a quick two-tap of the horn....just a little "hey buddy, let's go now, we're all waiting on you"

I freaked out a guy in a Walmart parking lot. I was backing out of a spot and I usually go slow making sure that a kid doesn't coming running into a blind spot etc. There was no one in my isle, as I'm backing out, this car comes into the lane from the street and isn't going to stop. I honk and stop. Then he stops, so I think he is going to let me out as I'm 3/4 out already. Nope he starts to go again. This pissed me off and his look on his face. So I let him, then I finish backing out. I floor it, lay on the horn, and follow him. He got scared and I was laughing, I shouldn't have done it, but I just couldn't let it go at the time.

And then when they say, "Hey how are you" and then I'll give the typical, "good how are you" and they don't answer back.

Yeah, I feel like a dumb*** when I respond with, "Good, how are you?", and they don't say anything. I don't know, maybe they didn't hear me, maybe they don't care, but it's embarrassing none the less. I just answer the question for them and say, "Good" or play it off and smile or something.

Haha, I love how my generation (including myself) does the "Whatup" thing to our buddies, but we respond with "Whatup" as well. I mean correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't that slang for "What's up?" Meaning we shouldn't respond with the same thing, we should tell them what's up lol.

Not that it bothers me, just arguing semantics here.

I do this, too. No clue why.

If I ask someone how they are doing and they don't respond, I always answer the question for them when they don't answer and say "Good, I guess." I know most of the time the people hear me and I hope it makes them feel like a jackass for being rude. I was just trying to be nice and give them a little greeting. The least they could do is acknowledge it with a simple fine, or good, or bad or anything but ignoring me.

Re: Unwritten rules...

See, now I can't stand when people ask me how I'm doing. You don't care, you're just trying to be nice. And I sure as heck couldn't give less of a crap about how you're doing today.

Just shut up and go about your day.

Yeah I'm talking about when someone asks me how I'm doing and then when I say it back to them they don't answer them.

I rarely initiate the "how are you" thing. The only time I'm doing it is at work when it is a patient or something or when it is appropriate.

I usually just says whats up if it's a buddy of mine or good morning or good afternoon.

Speaking of rude.

Ironically, my own statement is rude as well.

I haven't seen any one post this.

1. Don't sit next to somebody you don't know on the bus if there are plenty of empty seats available. I can't stand when this happens because it reduces my leg room and sometimes the person smells.

Re: Unwritten rules...

Steering the convo back to bathroom etiquette...Lets say you're in a bathroom that has the toilet for just peeing and the regular sit down toilet. You're doing #2 and somebody walks in to do #1. Do you stay in the bathroom stall until they leave or just come right on out?

Another thing. If you extend your hand for a handshake, actually do it. I hate those feminine limp hand handshakes.

Definitely.

Re: Unwritten rules...

Don't date co-workers (if you plan on being there for a while). The relationship isn't the bad thing, it's the eventual break-up.

This is right there at the top in my opinion.

I don't really see why this would matter.
