People not saying "Thank you"

it's sad to see how many people get bent out of shape over the words "excuse me" or "thank you"
why the hell do you care if some people don't say it? in what way does it effect you?

sorry buddy, but hating things like that doesn't make you any better than the people who don't have manners.

i usually say thanks when someone opens a door for me and i always hold the door for others, but there are times that i'll forget to say thank you for things like that.
that doesn't mean i'm a rude person or an asshole with no manners.

yeah, i would feel disrespected if i went out of my way to help a friend and he/she didn't thank me.. but i wouldn't run to the internet to cry like a baby about it.

keep being polite, it's a good trait to have. but stop hating, and stop expecting people to be perfect all the time.

I think its not about the words, but the way the person comes off. They can show that they acknowledge you with a smile, or a head nod or whatever, and its cool... but its the people who act like they own the place, knock into people, force their way past other people, etc.... which makes me mad. I dont expect to hear thank you or excuse me, but at least acknowledge that im here when you bowl into me, or when i hold a door open for you.

I hate when I say hi to someone and they ignore me or give me a weird look- a lot of times I will curse them out all crazy and just walk away- Fuck you if you can't say hi !

I hate it when you say "Excuse me" and the person wont budge, pretending they didnt hear you, little kids are especially bad with this, not trying to sound racist, but usually its either little black kids who are the worst with this. Then they grow up and still have terrible manners. However, all the ones I happen to be friends with are very polite, even if they sound ghetto, they dont act like it. But i had this black dude hella shove me out of the way more than once... idk, it just seems like my generation of black people are rude as hell... but the older they get, the nicer... I just avoid the ghetto acting ones, and make really good friends with the ones who know how to act in public

It bothers me when people don't take the 2 seconds to wait and hold the door for me or the person behind them, hell most people don't even look u in the eyes and even say a simple hello, so damn rude but some people can't help if they were raised by ignorant parents who never explained to them the importance of holding ur head high, looking people square in the eyes when u talk with them, always say please and thank u, and ALWAYS RESPECT UR ELDERS!!! Such basic skills sooo many lack ;)

Morning Urca :) And Beardo !!!bongsmilie

It's sad what people think of the youth nowadays. I always remember to say thankyou, help old people carry shopping and escort them across the street and they genuinely seem shocked that I wasn't trying to rob them or something. Even if they don't say thankyou sometimes they smile and I get that warm fuzzy feeling.

Growing up we had to say those 'magic' words: please and thank you. If you didn't use them you got squat from everyone in the family. If you didn't say it and they gave it to you you were both in trouble.

I remember when gentlemen opened car doors for ladies, took their hats off in a building, offered to help a lady with her coat, helped older people with heavy things, etc.

All those nice things that men/women did for each other were always followed with a 'thank you kind sir/madam'. A tip of the hat had meaning. A woman's gentle nod of the head had meaning too. Waiting for older people was a given and they appreciated it, you could see it in their eyes. Times have changed and maybe not all for the better.

Morning!!! I do all the above you mentioned, I smile at people constantly at school, walking to and from school, saying hello... its polite and makes me smile. My only issue is looking people in the eye when I am mad or when they are mad at me... My mom makes me look her dead in the eye and i cant do it... people always ask me why i cant look them in the eye and yell at them... I just cant

Please is my pet peeve. I will be at a friends houses and their kids will say. Dad, get me a drink! I said, you could have at least said bitch after that, if you couldn't say please. He said oh they aren't used to that. I said, it's your fault ya dipshit.

i'm polite and have manners.. but i hate the whole "bless you" thing after someone sneezes, so i never do it.

do you think thats rude?

and it's not like i don't say it for religious reasons, i just don't say it becuase it doesn't make sense to me.
