If you have anymore questions about manners, just come here and ask us. We'll give you about 50 different opinions! I think we are all in agreement that you shouldn't scratch your ass at the dinner table.  And then grab and split with your hands the hunk of artisan bread on the restaurant table. |

I just got scolded again for a new one yesterday. Quick back-story. I found one of those old wooden boxes at a sale and had spent a good part of the morning sanding it so that I could re-stain it.
Mom: (Looks at my nails.) I don't wear nail polish. Me: I know. I don't believe I've ever seen you wear it. Mom: You know why that is? Me: Nope. Mom: Because if you don't have the time to properly refresh it, leave it off. It's tacky. Me: I was sanding all morning. Now I just got done mowing your lawn and I haven't had time for a manicure today. Mom: No reason to get all huffy about it. If you want to go around looking tacky - that's your decision.
Frankly, I'm surprised I didn't get the lecture about "no vs nope" and "yeah vs yes". I guess the tacky nails made her overlook that one. Cause that's a biggie, too. Then she gets up and walks into the bedroom and brings me out this beautiful turquoise bracelet that she saw and bought because it looked like something I'd wear. Ya never know.... |

actually doubtful I displayed bad manners on the dates I have been on from Match.com after pondering just a little more - I've decided that this was the first time hot&sexy mentioned this to me is most likely because I am becoming more and increasingly more comfortable around her and I was just simply reminded to stay on point. |

I think we are all in agreement that you shouldn't scratch your ass at the dinner table. This is true. My bad. Only one opinion on the ass-scratching issue.
I think picking one's nose would be another we could agree on.
I say scratchbbut don’t sniff... Pick but don’t lick...lmao |
