Public Decency

Come on dudes.....show some respect....

You know what really grinds my gears, that students around campus no longer show any type of common curtsey. I come from a small town of under four thousand and I was raised under the idea of if you give respect you get respect. It seems to me like nobody else on campus has ever heard of it, or just don’t want to acknowledge it. I’m only talking about simple things like saying thank-you to the driver when you exit the bus, or thank-you to the workers of UDS. Are these things really that hard? There are some other things that I have noticed lately that also make me mad. For starters, if there are two unrinals in a bathroom and I'm already standing my one of them, absolutely do not...I repeat do not use the urinal next to me. You can hold it until I am finished and if not there is a perfectly good stall to use...don't make things akward.

The other day I was sitting down in the cafeteria and there was an empty tray sitting on the table, with nobody around it. Obviously somebody was too lazy to put their own tray into the cleaning rack. Are you kidding me? You walk past the cleaning rack on your way to the door for crying out loud. You had enouh energy to carry the tray when it was full of food but now when it is empty you couln't possibly pick it up.
Another thing, I was waiting at the bus stop the other day next to a lady who was eating a cookie and around the cookie was a napkin. When she finished the cookie she walked over to the trash can to throw the napkin away. When I say throw away, I mean she literally threw the napkin...which went no where near the opening for the bin. She then watched the napkin fall to the ground, turned around and walked away. You have to be joking...you aren't lazy enough to walk over to the trash can...but if you miss on the first try then you don't care about our environment anymore..screw it.
I guess what I am trying to say in this blog is that many people on this planet just annoy the hell out of me. They need to realize that Earth was not just made for them, there are other people around them, so maybe just maybe they should start living that way.
