[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Good Manners that matter to me would be:

~ Making sure to return a phone call as soon as you can. Do not substitute a text or email message unless the person says it is okay to do so.

[b]~ Bringing your phone to the dinner table at a social gathering. Then having it sit by your plate and you checking the screen every second or so. Rude and hugely distracting.[/b]

~ When checking out at a store (Walmart, etc.), if the line is very long in back of you, try to speed the process by putting your stuff in your cart and paying promptly. It is so annoying when people take so long to pay, or they decide to have a lengthy conversation with the cashier.

~ Speaking of check out lines, if you have a huge order and the person in back of you has one or two items, let them go ahead of you. It just makes sense.

~ Not honking your car horn unnecessarily. If you tap it to notify the car in front that the light has just turned green, that is one thing. But honking at someone just because you are pissed off and having a terrible day is just wrong.

~ Keeping your cell phone OFF during a movie. Not checking it even once because even if the screen lights up for a fraction of a second, it hugely annoys other patrons and distracts them. Imagine if each patron did this once during a movie screening. [/quote]

This. ESPECIALLY the bolded.[/quote]
