Manners a.k.a Etiquette

[Spoken Word]

Not weedsmoking ettiquette. Just social.

I've been reading through the forums and it's great to see other stoners that are intelectual and intelligent. It shows that we are not all a bunch of second class citizens like the gov't and anti-pot organizations try to precieve us as.

Anyways, coming from a completely Colombian household I was forced with manners and was always told to be polite. And now that I'm starting my adult life, I'm thankful and people always compliment me on mine. And it's just nice to be nice and for people to appreciate it.

I was just wondering if any of you give importance to social manners or etiquette? And what kind of things do you hate when people do?

For example, I hate it when people sneeze or cough and don't cover their mouths. ESPECIALLY if it's directed towards me and my pipe. lol

Or when I hold the door for people and they dont thank me, like if I'm some kind of fuckin doorman.

There are a lot more, but I'm just curious about yours.

Manners and respect are like the number one rules of an Anarchist. . .lol rules

Dude...I HATE when people dont thank me for holding the door for them. Especially when they are old enough to know their manners.

It's just basic common sense, or so we'd think, what to do and what not to do. To me it just doesn't make any sense to not thank a person who holds a door for you.

My pet peeve on manners would have to be when you have a conflict with someone and then apologize, and they just say "yup" like it was all your fault. Take at least some fucking responsibility for it; you were there too.

Ya, but remember patients is part of good manners. Dicks are going to be dicks, there's almost no way around that. . .just don't let it effect your mood.

Yeah I hear that for sure. There's too much beauty in the world to get hung up on it.

Exactly. That's why I made the thread. So you can all tell me about it.:jointsmile:

I hate it when a fight's going on and, instead of trying to break it up which is the right thing to do, they pull out their phone and start recording it like a dumbfuck to sickly enjoy violence later.

[Matt the Funk]

My manners are....hmm...I dunno, I try to just treat people how I would like to be treated. And when I am a dick, unless I think they deserved me being a dick, I apologize.

[Spoken Word]

Hmm. With the amount of hate and ignorance, it would be hard to say that fights are unavoidable(if thats a word)

And if I was fighting someone, I'd like to see the fight afterwards to see how I won or what I did wrong.

Fighting is kind of in the grey area.... Cause there isn't a lot to justify violence but I'm sure there's been times when people really needed to duke it out to let out anger towards each other.
