[quote=Anonymous]Love the comedy routine. Have seen before and it always makes me laugh. Times have changed and what used to be friendly is not poor etiquette or even rude. You don't go knocking on doors to introduce yourself unless the person's door is already open and the screen is the only thing closed. You can leave a welcome gift and a note, but it is rude to expect someone to drop everything for you. We moved with an infant. The younger neighbors all were lovely introducing themselves when they saw up strolling around the neighborhood. Some elderly neighbors introduced themselves by ringing the doorbell multiple times or knocking furiously always either waking the baby, interrupting breastfeeding or getting me while I am in the bathroom. If I actually made it to the door eventually to stop the barrage of noise, I got the judgmental look for looking like something a cat drags in. Yeah, some welcome to the neighborhood. Even worse one asked "Why didn't you answer the door sooner, can't you hear?"[/quote]
