If a Divvy farts in Mass and no one smells it ... does she really fart?:
THIS really grinds my gears!!!!!!:
I actually pulled a serial-FB-announcer up on this, it was getting beyond ridiculous - announcing the weight, date, time, name of a couple's first-born! GAH!
One from my DH --
If the petrol station is empty and you're getting unleaded, don't pull into the only pump that has gas too! Choose wisely :D
Also, if there is only one piece of loo paper left on the roll, don't leave it for the next person, change it!!!:
This makes me go spare :wall::
Don't jump queues. Queue jumpers go to Hell. But they have to queue up to get in :lol:
If you're indicating left the I assume you are going to turn left. Dawdling along with your indicator on is not cool. If you dont know where you're going, pull over and read a map. Dont hold up traffic just because you are an incompetent navigator.
If you are navigatorially challenged, get a GPS. (or get your wife to buy you a GPS :) )
If you are lost, cannot read a map and your GPS is sending you the wrong way, ask for directions. Your head won't explode if you do. Mine might if you don't and I am stuck in the back seat whilst you drive around in circles.
Kindness costs nothing. Even when you're stuck in the back seat of car with an directionally challenged driver who won't take or ask for directions and you think your head is going to explode in frustration.
Don't park your car on footpaths, forcing a mum with a pram and a toddler on a bike to walk in the road.
Farting in mass? As long as it's not farting in mass en masse!:
Don't leave your supermarket trolley in an empty space, walk it back to the trolley bay, so a: I don't have to move it if it's
the only car spot left and b: the wind doesn't send it hurtling into my car :wall:
if u pull up at a creek for a swim and can see that there are people there already enjoying a picnic and space is tight GO ELSEWHERE ie further up the creek, to another creek, home and come back later! Don't let your 5 massive stinking dogs, 27 feral children and your pet parrot out of the car and assume the people already there want company.
Do not smoke anywhere near the vicinity of a children's playground, you dirty filthy disgusting morons.

:rofl: love it, i always try and make a gap where possible (clean toilets & paper permitting):
Ahh yes i think most people seem to forget this one.:
If your partner has a headache don't start singing the perri perri chicken song with the kids right next to their head! :rofl:
Oh yes! Also add to when the carpark is near empty: if you drive a huge car, don't park beside a very small car. You may have good vision, so respect that you are taking away someone elses when you park beside them.:
I don't slow down if someone does this to me! Just like to scare them a bit....lol:
Again, if they are taking their time, I just drive through the second they are out of the way, fully crossed or not!:
Ahh, you gotta love useless customers!:
Don't reverse park where it is TOTALLY UNNECESSARY! Nobody want's to wait for you to squeeze your car at the front door when there are PLENTY of parks left!!
If you come to collect your child from a birthday party then please make some effort to encourage them out the door quickly. Appreciate that the person who hosted the party is probably shattered and still has to clean the house and does not want to spend 20 minutes enjoying how cute it is that "little Johnny" doesn't want to leave and will not do as he is told.
Mmmm... I always try to park my HUGE car next to a small car. The reason being, that if it is a small car, they are much less likely to scratch or dint my car with their car door. And if I park next to another big car I can garauntee you that they will hit my car opening their doors (Ours slide open so it isn't us hitting them).:
It is not the next person in the queues job to put YOUR shopping basket/trolley away! And it is only polite to thank the person behind you (who needs to put their groceries down where YOUR basket is) when the put it away for you!!
On behalf of all the small car drivers I thank you for making seeing when backing out just that little bit more difficult!:
Agree, but change that to "almost impossible". When a car park is full, fair enough, park where you can, but when the carpark is almost empty (as in my first post)???:
When you see a woman pushing a trolley with three toddlers in it it is much easier for you to move out the way then expect her to go around you!! (I am amazed at the amount of people who do not do this...I am pushing the equivalent of a semi trailer!)
If you are smoking please don't hold your lit cigarette down by your side when kids are around...it is their eye height.
RSVP by the RSVP date - Don't make the host chase you / call you to confirm
I am GOD - nuf said :rofl:
Amen!!! Or even if you're just a person with no trolley and you expect someone with a trolley to move out of the way for you, regardless of having kids with or being pregnant!!:
Completely agree with the big 4WD/monster car parking next to little cars and cutting off any vision one too!
If you are turning right into the terminating road at a T-junction, DON'T CUT THE CORNER!!!! Like the idiot who cut the entire corner at full speed when I was just getting to the T-junction yesterday!
Sent from my iPod touch - sorry for any mistakes!
:clap: yep!!!!!!:
Can I add - entrances to shops aswell. I'm sick of being forced to walk through a wall of cigarette smoke just to get into the shop
And ESPECIALLY underground car parks, near the entrances, next to the parent parking so ensuring you'll make kids go through the smoke :wall: Yes, that's exactly what happened today. Once on the way in, once on the way out. :angry::

Sooo frustrating. One day I might get up the courage to tell them to take their disgusting habit elsewhere!:
20 horses should not be taken on the road en mass during commuting times. Certainly not 60mph roads with blind bends. I just missed a head-on collision thanks to that last week (drivers trying to overtake and give horses room, but on my side of the road).
I tell people to stop smoking near my kids if my kids are there first. But I always do dramatic disgusted expressions and fan their stench away from me if I am forced to walk through it. I can smell them a mile off.:

And also don't touch a trolley with other people's children in it. I don't care that there were people blocking the aisle where you wanted to walk, my trolley was out of the way and up against the shelves and using the handle to shove it out of your way without giving me time to catch it, and storming off while it collides with the shelves on the other side of the aisle off it a completely unreasonable and dangerous way to get my trolley out of the way. There were two small children sitting in the top of it and trolleys can topple. I was about to move out of your way if you had bothered to say excuse me or wait more than half a second.:
And if I grace you with my presence and agree to have coffee/dinner/playdate etc then PUT AWAY YOUR MOBILE PHONE! I don't go out for coffee/dinner etc to watch you text other people for the night. I am in front of you, try talking to me or don't be surprised that I decline invitations to spend time with you.
You. Must. Feed. Me. Vodka.
Don't be silly Rouge. It's the IV drip you want for vodka. However, I'd be happy with a Melchizedek or even a Primat of Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Grigiot.
MAKE ME HAPPY.
If you're in a waiting room and the seating arrangements are inadequate, let your kid sit on your lap/the floor or stand, particularly when there are elderly people waiting.
I'll add to that - if you're in a waiting room in the oncology unit, and there's not enough seating - stand up if you're one of the healthy people there (!!!!!)
I am actually a little shocked this had to be pointed out.:
I think the same rule applies to antenatal clinics ... if you aren't pregnant, don't continue to occupy a chair while the pregnant women in the room have to stand (or sit on the floor). Sometimes those waits are two hours. It is a long time to stand up when you are pregnant!:
I think it's pretty clear that schools need to be teaching etiquite classes - all joking aside, someone really does need to start teaching basic life skills and manners again, because we've all become so selfish and rude!
Agreed!:
"I'm sorry", "please" and "thank you" are just simple phrases that are easy to pronounce. Using them won't kill you.
A toothpick is neither a dress accessory nor a souvenir from the restaurant.
If I'm talking to you; please try and pause from your texting/Facebook browsing just for a minute. It's so annoying when I'm saying something important and you just nod absent mindedly while the tap-tap of your keyboard keeps distracting me. (DH take note!)
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk...probably quite short!
I hear you, but from my experience, kids who aren't expected to have any manners at home (or to respect their parents or share or respect others' property or whatever) aren't going to respect their teachers or obey any etiquette rules taught there ...:
so definately have it reinforced at school, but start it at home ...
A dress accessory?:

On this topic I say do not pick or floss your teeth where anyone, even your significant other, can see the bits flying out. Vomit.

I hear you on that one!!!!!!!! I used to end up sitting on the floor all the time while waiting in one (to the point the staff would just throw me a pillow).:
