Rude “People” Who Need To Be Smacked!

Over the Merdeka break, I attended a wedding – and what a shocker it was. While I have encountered many rude people in the course of my life, I have never met so many rude people at one time and at one place. It was like the annual gathering for Rude People United and it was both amusing and annoying to watch them in action. It was as if they had just crawled out from under a rock or just discovered life outside their caves.

Come to think of it – some of them did look like leftovers from the caveman era. I mean – it’s not about being nasty – I strongly believe that you can be hottest looking person on the planet but if you have manners that belong in the toilet bowl then you’re downright ugly. But of all rude behaviors, the worst two would have to be the inability to express thanks to others and when you take someone from granted repeatedly. If someone has done something for you today – please thank them and show them how appreciative you are. Remember, they can very well choose not to help you.

I didn't know whether they deaf or blind, but these people just left you with nothing after you’ve help them. The appreciation is not shown and simply acted like they’re better than others. Not that we desperately want a gift from you, it’s just a word ‘thanks’ would be enough to show your gratitude. Remember we are all human and ‘What goes around comes around’.

Wooo, i like this sentence "You can be the hottest looking person on the planet if you have manners.." Never thought of that because "hot" usually link to the overall appearance but come to think about it, you're right Ernie!! It doesn't matter if you're average looking or what, as long as you have the courteousness, everything counts...

I can understand your feeling with the experienced at that day. Because i also growth up from a small town. We cannot avoid those people, but i believed there are still got people are live in manner and hamble at the town. Think at other way, we should proud that we are not belong at that "rude people".
