Linked to "The meaning of life thread" I don't hate anyone I just get on with my own life BUT
I used to have a shop and obviously saw quite a cross section. You wouldn't believe how many kids came in and said please and thank you. Most were very courteous.
The owdies though were sometimes so rude. They'd buy summit eg for £1.56 and they'd just fling a fiver on the counter even though my hand was outstretched to receive it. No please or thank you. So I'd get as much small change as possible and carefully place it flat on the counter so they'd spend the afternoon trying to pick it all up. I'd then give them a cheery "Thank you". They never did it again.

I was down Biddle the other week with a mate.. we were talking to this girl we once worked with.. Now Biddle High st is closed off at the bottom end, with big signs clearly stating ROAD AHEAD CLOSED.. This old geezer pulls up..gets out of his car and asks us if he can get through.. I told him if he smashes the car through the signs and cones he would be OK.. not in a cocky way, just having a laugh.. he then proceeds to give it the big un by approaching me and acting tough..
"I asked you a question son, now can I get through or not'' he said angrily.. my mate replied "What does the sign say"?..
He chuntered off to get in his car, to which I called to him..
"And you wonder why"... "Why what"?.. he snarled
"Why we dont like old people"..
He then got in his car, and yes you've guessed it.. drove up the high st.... lol

Go for it, salop. You're not wrong. Some of 'em are pig ignorant. My experience of life is that there are ignorant sods of all ages. Just for the record, I always say "Please" and "Thank you" and woe betide my kids and grandkids if they don't do the same. Manners cost nowt and there's nothing more irritating than not receiving a courteous response to courtesy.

You want to see 'em get on a bus.
50-odd fucking seats yet they are jostling like a racehorse at the start of the National.
