Let's Talk About Manners...

I get back at those people. When I finally manage to get around them, I park my cart sideways in front of them and stare blankly at whatever is on the shelf there. I make them wait at least as long as they made me wait. The same goes for people that let their kids span across the entire aisle with those stupid little play carts.

That's how it's pronounced in England too (they spell it differently too). Since they had the language first, I guess we are the ones messing it up.

If they don't move, I look far to the left and run into them. Rude, yes, deserved? YEP!

If you take a shopping cart - PUT IT BACK WHERE YOU GOT IT - dont leave it next to my car or worse -LEAN IT up against my car

Speaking of cars - if you decide to park next to mine - kindly leave me enough space to actually GET OUT of my own vehicle or GET BACK INTO it! My passenger door is not for climbing in and out of and across to get to my drivers seat. I was nice enough to leave you room when I parked.

If you cant paralel park - DONT.

If you cant park in one parking spot due to your vehicle being too big, then please dont park next to mine - its called walk further and park further down in the lot and use 2 spaces.

On that same note: if your car/truck is "too precious" to park in a lot and you must park sideways, taking up 2 -4 parking spots, then perhaps "Betsty the Show Car" shouldnt be driven to Lowes on Sunday then huh?

Please do not let your kids ride the shopping carts across the lots... I will ask you for damages when "precious Timmy" hits my vehicle and puts a dent in it - no matter that "He was just playing..." Yeah and I was just standing here loading groceries minding my own business listening to you yell "Timmy, ...Timmy.. stop now.. I said stop..... STOOPPP."

"oops" is not an automatic forgiveness to an accident ..I will ask for your license, registration and insurance information... sorry.

Oh man.. I could go on and on...

In the South it's "alumininimoieown" or "coca cola can stuff". I hate saying that word. that and Murderer. Feel like I'm mumbling.

I've got to give you a thumbs up on that one... cell phones are so annoying. Do people really need to be connected 24/7? That why I am one of the few...I do NOT own a cell phone, I don't want people to find me all the time, I have an answering machine....leave a message and if I really want to talk with you, I will return your call....if I don't call you back, I don't want to talk to you!

A couple summers ago my son was hanging out with his cousin but what drove me nuts was his leaving half full soda cans or cups laying around. My son was raised to have manners, everyone parents love him but when hes at home he forgets all about it.
