Why would you teach your child to be rude and ungrateful. Literally why.

Fun fact: My mom taught me to thank EVERYONE. I thank the bus driver, I thank the guy at the Taco Bell drive-through window…I THANK THE TACO BELL MACHINE THE PERSON TALKS THROUGH. The sad thing is…almost everyone I know thinks this is weird. I’ve had people look at me funny because I thank the bus driver for being there because if he wasn’t I couldn’t get home safely. My friends question me because I’m thanking Taco-Bell guy because where else am I going to get cheap, crappy, delicious food for 3 drunk ass people at 2am? It’s called being a human being. Try it.

If someone does something, anything from doing dishes to picking up something you dropped to holding the door for you, you say thank you. They did something for you they didn’t have to so they deserve a thank you. It’s called appreciating the community you live in and the people around you.

I used to work second shift in a lab. One day as I was going into work I met one of the guys on the cleaning staff who was pushing one of those big four wheeled trash bins between buildings. So naturally, I held the door for him. He literally stopped in his tracks and asked if I was holding the door for him. And I was like, yeah of course. He said no one had ever done that for him. That is basic politeness to hold the door for someone especially if they would have difficulty opening the door themselves. After that he always called me the nice girl, and all I could think was that the bar is way too low.

Always thank customer service people. Especially TSA workers during the holidays, you never know who needs it.

i want a relationship but i want them to be like a friend to me, i dont want the relationship to be all about kissing, making out and sex i just wanna hang out with them, and go places, and just have fun wherever we go

This post is surreal because that is exactly how a healthy relationship should be yet we’re convinced this is a weird and unusual thing to ask of our partners.

All I want is for someone to be overly in love with me
