Manners

Manners - I find that people just don't use them any more. What is up with that?

Basic words like please, thank you and excuse me have left the English vocabulary.

Example 1: I hold the door for the person behind me to catch the door with their hand, no thank you, no acknowledgement at all. I usually say you're welcome anyways but would rather I did not hold the door and let is slam shut in your face?!?!?

Example 2: I am at the grocery store looking at what cookies to buy and someone cuts in between the cookies and me (the nerve getting in between my cookies and I), they don't say excuse me or nothing. They walk through like they are not even there - wtf? LOLOL!

Such small words can go along way but are we really becoming that insensitive or self-centred?

Sheesh
