Title: Unwritten rules
Post by: The Big Train on October 30, 2013, 01:06:36 PM
So with any law or set of rules people are going to bend or break them.  What about the ones that aren't written down or really explained to you?  If you break these unwritten rules you most likely won't get in trouble with the law or anything but you will either feel out of place or looked down upon.  In this thread post unwritten rules and why they should or shouldn't be.

I'll give a few to start.

Paying with pennies- Sure you can do it and it is totally legal, but you don't pay for a $5-6 meal with all pennies, you just don't rough ridin' do it.

Buying food at one restaurant and taking it into another one and eating it there- Seen people do it, really frowned upon by the restaurant you didn't buy from.

Going to take a leak and pissing right next to another guy when you could put at least 1 stall in between you- It's just really rough ridin' weird.

I did this when I bartended at aggie station all the time. waiter/waitress would give me a super weird look and I'd be all, "I've seen what's in our freezer, it can be done". I'd also order the stuff in there that the owners bought just for themselves and not for customers. one time we got a bunch of pancake sausage on a stick breakfast corndog things to just chow on after hours and I'd always order one on the side of whatever else I got.

Oh man.  I also PI'd this broad after a held open two doors for her at Panera and she didn't say thank you.  Waited a considerable amount of time for the first one, too.

Along that same line, when you're getting out of a crowded parking lot, you alternate.  Can't stand the guy who tries to stick right on the bumper of the guy in front of him so you can't squeeze in. :driving:

That's cause it's uncomfortable as crap for everyone when someone waits way too long holding the door open for you.
