A bit of a rant

What happened to manners and politeness?

Ok, so I remember a time when people used to wait for those exiting the metro to get out before they got in. Now, people just push in before anyone has had a chance to get out. What the hell is that all about.
Also, people standing at the door of a bus or metro should check and see if people are getting off when the metro stops. Otherwise, they will be pushed out of the way and can't complain about it. I've missed stops thinking that the idiot standing at the door is getting off.
Oh, and when your driving and you get to the stop sign first, you get to go first ... it's Driving 101 people ... and blinkers. They're there to advise people around you what you're intending on doing (turning, stopping, slowing down) ... don't put them on at the last minute. I'm not freakin' psychic.

Oh, and one more ... when you're at the movies, you can talk up until the moment the movie begins and then shut the f**k up. And if you're there to watch an English movie, and don't understand English, tough. Don't ask the person next to you to translate the whole freakin' movie for you. Maybe you should go see it in another language. Or better yet, wait for the DVD and use the subtitles or buy the dubbed version. I don't care, just don't ruin a perfectly lovely time at the movies by gabbing through it ... and if you don't turn off your cell phone, you will be yelled at. Be warned!

OK, enough ranting for now.
