I have to admit. I'm guilty of this. Perhaps I was even guilty of it this weekend. Mr S. and I held the door open for three seperate people this weekend. Not one said "thank you". By the last, I walked away muttering "I guess no one says thank you anymore". That will now get you a punch in the nuts - if you are lucky.

Teed off man uses golf club in clash over manners
"FALMOUTH, Mass. – A man faces assault charges after allegedly striking another man with a golf club in an argument over manners. Police told the Cape Cod Times that a 50-year-old man leaving a gas station in town on Monday morning held the door open for a 38-year-old man.
Police said the 38-year-old man did not thank the other man, who responded by uttering a sarcastic "thank you."
The two men got into an argument before the 38-year-old went to his car to get a golf club, which he allegedly used to strike the victim several times in the stomach and legs. Police said the victim suffered minor injuries.
The 38-year-old man pleaded not guilty to assault and battery with a dangerous weapon in Falmouth District Court on Tuesday and was ordered to stay away from the other man."
