Kagan MacTane (he/him)People who ask, "Am I the weird one for not wanting to go someplace my partner wasn't invited?" — no, you're not the weird one. The person who invited you solo is asking you to join them in insulting your partner, and thinks you'll do it. Which makes them a tactless asshole. 3/3<a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/etiquette" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#etiquette</a>

Kagan MacTane (he/him)...you're dissing their marriage while inviting one of them to witness and support yours. Wow, *super* tacky!)Too many people have fallen for the idea that, "Well, it's their event, so it's their guest list, and their right to invite or not-invite whoever they want."Sure, they have "the right to" do that, but that doesn't make it remotely polite or decent behavior. 2/3<a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/etiquette" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#etiquette</a>

Kagan MacTane (he/him)People on the interpersonal drama forums (e.g., r/AITA, r/AmITheAsshole, etc.) need to learn:Formal event <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/etiquette" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#etiquette</a> is to invite long-standing/established couples as a unit. Inviting only one of them is a snub — not just to the not-invited member, but also to the invited one (by assuming they'd be so crass as to leave their partner at home like that), and thus also to their relationship in general. (I.e., if the formal event is a wedding, it means... 1/3

⁉️<a href="https://graphics.social/@Chiwo_Design" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@Chiwo_Design</a> I think people not responding or taking a long time to do so, is a symptom of our diseased society - lack of etiquette and bad manners is permeating every layer of society. It started imo with Gen Y and/or Gen Z and is now propagating rapidly throughout. <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/etiquette" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#etiquette</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/knigge" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#knigge</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/society" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#society</a>

Bobbing BoatSpeed demons!Today, the boat's tied on pins that I hammered into the bank by using a mallet. The ground is quite soft, though.When boaters speed past at 3 miles per hour (5 kmh), it displaces many tonnes (tons) of water with such force that, after a dozen or so boats, the mooring pins pull out of the ground.There's no point yelling 🗯️ at boaters like these.The photo shows the divot where my first pin came out.<a href="https://poweredbygay.social/tags/CanalLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CanalLife</a> <a href="https://poweredbygay.social/tags/canal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#canal</a> <a href="https://poweredbygay.social/tags/boatimg" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#boatimg</a> <a href="https://poweredbygay.social/tags/boat" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#boat</a> <a href="https://poweredbygay.social/tags/narrowboat" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#narrowboat</a> <a href="https://poweredbygay.social/tags/mooring" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#mooring</a> <a href="https://poweredbygay.social/tags/pins" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#pins</a> <a href="https://poweredbygay.social/tags/mallet" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#mallet</a> <a href="https://poweredbygay.social/tags/etiquette" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#etiquette</a>

Mark B TomlinsonWhen someone asks a question and the person replys; the correct response is: Thanks! That's a minimum response and if 6 lettters are beyond your typing ability drag your heavy cursor and hit the star. Ignorance is bliss execpt when it is just rude.

Graham DownsSimilarly, if I answer the phone and the first thing I hear is "Hello, how are you?", that's the quickest way to get my guard up and start the conversation off on the wrong foot. At least tell me who you are first. <a href="https://mastodon.africa/tags/etiquette" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#etiquette</a>

Graham DownsPSA: If I don't know you and/or you're messaging me from an unknown number, don't send me a message with some variation of "Hello, how are you?" and nothing else. That's going to get you blocked.Better: "Hello, my name is abc, and I'm messaging you because I want to talk about xyz. How are you?"OK, that might still get you blocked, but at least I get a chance to find out who you are before I'm expected to tell you how I am (which is a rather personal question, by the way). :P <a href="https://mastodon.africa/tags/etiquette" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#etiquette</a>

They have always been difficult and socially clueless, to the extent that it became a running joke between me and my wife ("Oh, no, [so-and-so] is acting up on the school email list again"). FWIW, they are extremely intelligent, and I suspect they are neurodivergent, probably undiagnosed. 🧵1/6

DopeGhotiWhen offering cordial salutations to one who has elected for "they/them" or other pronouns averant to either masculine or feminine presentation, clearly Sir or Ma'am is not correct. What is a valid stand-in for such honorifics?
