[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When someone older makes a rude request like that, I pretend I misheard and respond accordingly. So if the rolls are at my end of the table and he asks for them, I say ‘I know, don’t they look delicious?’ and then I pass them to the person next to me. Or if he leans into the buffet line, I say, ‘yup, those are the potatoes, looks like they are mashed, but I think Jenny is behind me and then you’re next.’[/quote] What is your problem? If someone wants rolls, the appropriate thing to do is ask whoever is closest to them to pass them to them? Exactly what do you think is rude about someone asking you to pass the rolls?[/quote] NP. If it's in the middle of the meal and they've already been passed around? Sure, of course. But at the beginning of the meal, they are passed in order and you can't just demand that they go to you first. Have you ever been taught anything about table manners? [/quote]
