Imagine if HB&B was your dad. I think I would have hung myself with my umbilical cord.

Hiney, as a mod please could you set up some sort of poll, or perhaps we could have a competition round at someone's house? We all sit round and have dinner and the one who says please and thank you the most is the winner!! Anyone who is caught with elbows on the table or who refuses to pass the salt gets their head blown off by hb&b, who sits at the head of the table with a sawn-off shotgun.
The winner doesn't get an actual prize, but is rewarded instead with a warm glow inside and a deep sense of self-satisfaction.
I'm pretty sure that firearms at the dinner table, are considered bad manners. Even in the USA.

I'm wondering whether it is good or bad manners to say ting-a-ling when riding my bike and wanting to warn someone of my approach

Generally speaking, it is NOT considered to be good manners for Italians to say please and thank you. Too much pleasing and thanking can be thought to emphasise the fact that debts have been created and that one party remains under an obligation to another. Constantly reminding people of this fact IS bad manners. Well mannered conversations should conclude with both parties retaining a status of equality.
When I lived in Italy, I once overheard a conversation between two old women, one of whom had obviously done the other one a big favour. This illustrates how uncomfortable people can feel about thanking each other.
First old woman:- Thank you very much indeed.
Second old woman:- No. It was nothing.
First old woman:- Yes, I know that. It was nothing.
Equality reasserted.
pasty
A different kind of pasty
God I HATE that. I very nearly ended up in an altercation involving fisticuffs the other day. I was getting off a tube at Victoria and some twatty bloke decided he wasn't going to wait for everyone to get off and barged his way onto the train first, stopping poeple getting off. I said something along the lines of "fucks sake can't you let people off first" and he started giving me a load of verbals back, tried to grab my arm and shaped what looked like he was going to try and smack me one. I was in danger of missing my Brighton train though so I just ignored the twat and carried on. Had I the time, I may have stayed and seen what he tried next.
He was considerably smaller than me

How do you know I'm not? I shagged a lot of rough old birds in Hollingdean in the 80's

Particularly gaulling if the twat is on their phone at the same time ... I always shout THANK YOU in that particular instance...
Timmy, you were born in 1969 or 70, so it seems fairly unlikely that you experienced any such 'delights' in the 80's anywhere.

The fact I'm not squat, fat, balding and f*** ugly pretty much confirms it for me.
Anyway, on the subject in hand;
Yes it is annoying if you are decent enough to hold open a door, and they don't acknowledge it. Ignorant COCKS.
I'm not too hung up on all this, though, although anyone eating with their mouth open can f*** RIGHT OFF.

I still havent mastered the standard issue "distance to door" ratio in which you should hold a door open for someone.
I hate it when you hold the door open and it makes them RUN to get through. I hate it even more when you think they are too far away and let the door close, only for it to close right on their FACE
