Note to pompous people: It is a breach of etiquette to point out another's breach of etiquette.

Sorry all, but if the person next to you farts and you fart back, that is no good taste or high class.

it's called 'getting even'.

violence begats violence.
flatulence begats flatulence.
Damn the cheese.

Damn the cheese.

The campfire scene from 'Blazing Saddles'. Now you know where that name came from.

Ya wanna bet! I saw a post earlier with a link to New York on the web, and they had an article that called the booing police & fireman "turds". So I consider that shat upon! lol

[moodymare]

Oops, that was in reply to your post #64

[Carolinamom]

Is it proper etiquette for me to continue with my collection of misused "whoms"?

If I drop a piece of cheese, which is proper...pick it up or let Bait eat it?

Do we need to have classes in etiquette for the crew?

Carolinamom:
Be advised, it is with the captain's deepest sympathy and a modicom of pseudoempathy, you are hereby appointed Chief of Etiquetted Decorum and Cheese Distribution, Consumption and Proper Disposal of Same Instruction, with all rights and abuses which accompanies said modest office, including promotion to E2.5, and will proceed immediately to your closet cabin, PCS.

[Notwithstanding]

My aim is to clarify what the rules of the game of etiquette are. I am not advocating that these rules be followed. I am merely letting people (who may not know the rules of that game) know what the rules are, so that anyone claiming to be an etiquette advocate whilst pointing out the faux paus of others will be known as an imposter.

[Carolinamom]

a modicom [sic]of pseudoempathy? modest office?

HAHAHAHAHA! 'Love those big words.

If you spill your drink on purpose, that's alcohol abuse!

"Just don't drop it or the moose will get you..."

I thought you didn't sic moose on people who dropped their cheese...only dobermans....what in the world do you do to people who cut the cheese?????? *grins*

[DJ88]

Yes, I too, am guilty of pointing out the correct way to hang a flag. :-( It just really bugged me....*grins*

[calvin sun]

Thanks for the note. By the way, what is the rule when (for example) a retail store hangs the flag vertically in a storefront window? Is the position of the union relative to the person OUTSIDE the store (looking at the flag through the glass) or relative to the person INSIDE the store? Thanks.

Although better-suited to Fridays, I love these threads. You really stepped in it, man; now the only question is "How high will the pile be when we finish piling on?"

And, BTW, pardon my poor manners, but this is a Vanity and belongs in the Your Opinion category, not Culture/Society.

I could only improve upon this reply to you if I could spell that Terrance & Phillip sound.

[monkey]

Indeed. And it is judgemental to accuse others of being judgemental. But liberals never seem to notice the contradiction.

[dirtboy]

what in the world do you do to people who cut the cheese??????

Run a herd of moose over them. And then let the dobermans eat what remains...

[DJ88]

The union should be to the left of the person standing OUTSIDE. Not the person inside..so, if you were standing on the street looking at a flag hanging vertically, the Union should be to your left. :-)

"Run a herd of moose over them. And then let the dobermans eat what remains..."

Okayyyy...then. I'll just bring wine to the party, if that's okay...:-)
