I hold the door for people.
it's rude to let it slam in to someone

I think that I may have killed/seriously injured at least 6-7 canines before somebody finally took me aside & explain to me how this kind of behavior is considered exceptionally rude & uncouth.
I was so pissed off that my friends had allowed me to do this for that long before giving me a heads up,
that I just decided to completely abandon not just them
but all of society in general.
That was the day that I said goodbye to the outside world & said hello to the org.

I tend to just kick girls through the door.

Nowadays it's hard to know how to behave , if you'd do this she could say
'i don't need that , i can do that myself
Yet if you don't she might find you inconsiderate and blunt

Another question ; should we act macho or emo ? ;

If we act macho , we are blunt neanderthalers and if we act emo we are wimps

No, that's just my daughters.

They can open their own fucking doors.
Unless they don't have hands and then it's cool to watch them struggle.

Understood.

You're terrible.

You probably hate him but I was laughing at an Alan Carr quote the other day; he said he lost out on the Glasses Wearer Of The Year Award to Rose West.

Hope you're doing well, ya lil' scamp.

Just a few days ago I went to stand in line at the supermarket and I got to the end of the line at almost exactly the same time as a woman coming from the other direction. She asked "oh, were you standing there?" and I responded "no, I think we got here simultaneously, but ladies first!". She then just said "oh" with a disenchanted tone of voice, gave me a weird look and slowly stepped in ahead of me. Swedish women are so weird. They mistake good manners for chauvinism all the time.

I try to always hold the door open for anyone - any sex
I try to always say thank you to those that do it for me

I always open the door for people whatever their sex. It irritates me though if they don't say thank you.

but,were you talking to her or her breasts? this might be why

I have always done this, but i'm wondering if this is seen as old fashioned and outdated, or there no substitute for good manners?

I'm big on please and thank you as well...

I dated a Swedish foreign exchange student in high school and she would GLARE at me if I held the door open for her. But American women expect it. Go figure.
