Keep It Off The Table - Even If It Does Require A Heavy Tuck
Absolutely, my husband and I have implemented this rule since we were dating. There is no reason to have your phone out while you're eating in the company of somebody else unless it's an emergency.
Same. We have a strict 'no electronics at the dinner table' rule.
Load More Replies...I've had many interesting dinner conversations where phones have come out to look things up. Sure, don't just have it sit there, and DON'T be on social media or messaging (RUDE!) but there's a place for information, too, if you're a group of nerds/geeks.
If you're in a restaurant where there's a board of daily specials, and it's out of sight of your table, one person should go and take a photo on their phone, and pass it round, so that everyone doesn't have to traipse over to the board, and try to remember what's on it.
Load More Replies...As an etiquette expert myself, I will tell you the truth. You can do whatever you feel is appropriate for yourself. All these rules are just some BS some other "etiquette expert" came up with.
At a restaurant for lunch today it was shocking that all the babies, toddlers and the other young children had a phone in their hands. The 2 young adults (dating?) didn’t talk, they scrolled.
Years ago my daughter and I met a friend for lunch. We sat and were looking at the menu, she took a call and proceeded to talk. I took my daughter, we excused ourselves and left. If you can't tell someone calling, I'll get back to you later, I can do something else.
Then how do you show pictures of your not-present niece to your grandma since they don't get to see each other that often?

I was going to include a tip on how to avoid putting other passengers' eyes out with your lapels ...
Load More Replies...I fly quite a bit and often board early. I also prefer aisle seats. I’ve honed my ninja moves to deflect the backpacks and over-large shoulder bags as others are boarding. Been hit in the head too many times from people who can’t manage their bags.
Load More Replies...NEVER on the floor!! A doctor told my Grandma off for putting her bag on the floor at the hospital years and years ago (kindly, he explained why it's a bad idea because of germs), and it's stuck with me since. Strangely, Spanish people never put their stuff on the floor, but all the tourists here do - I think they know exactly the kind of crud you could be picking up!
In Spain they always say that if you put your bag on the floor, you'll lose all your money.
Load More Replies...depends how heavy it is....some stuff is best all time on the shouldern
Well I could be wrong, but the reason why its etiquette is to benefit others, not yourself. Wearing it on the train and standing, now makes you take up the footprint of two people, instead of just yourself.
Load More Replies...It’s All About The Eye Contact! As Much As You Might Like To Be, You Are Not Anna Wintour
I remove them, but l put them back on pretty soon. There's a reason l'm wearing them.
Sorry, I have to wear sunglasses outside for eye issues, If it bothers you that’s a”you” problem.
Same, I'm all but blind in bright sunlight (glare oversensitivity, enough that even my regular glasses are specially treated for it)
Load More Replies...I have prescription glasses that turn dark in the sun. If I take them off to greet people I can't see what is going on anywhere else around me. Plus if I am facing toward the sun when they greet me, if I take off my glasses I am just going to be squinting and trying to shade my eyes the entire time.
Exceptione are there, besides these are etiquettes, not the law. This is like someone saying it's polite to stand up while shaking somebody's hand and one says I am in a wheelchair and if I stand up I'll topple over or keep falling the whole time.
Load More Replies...Eh, I ALWAYS keep my sunglasses on SPECIFICALLY so I don’t gotta make eye contact 🤷
...what about prescription lenses? I take off my sunglasses, I can't see at all. How does that make for a more polite greeting. Nice to meet you, I can't see your face, but nice to meet you. Blanket 'one size fits all' rules are just asking to be broken.
I wear sunglasses even when.it's cloudy because it's just too damn bright without. That's why I am wearing them, for eye protection. I love my eyesight, and I wont risk it for anyone.
Or the ones with eyeballs on springs. Those are really distracting.
Load More Replies...The proper etiquette is to stair into their eyes unblinking until one of you falters to establish who is the dominant and who will be the submissive.
This is forking ridiculous "advice". I wear my sunglasses 1000% of the time outdoors because my eyes are so photosensitive that if I take my sunglasses off, my eyes literally won't open. This is also super ableist advice as well.
A 34-year-old etiquette expert is one of the young representatives who are popularizing and modernizing the subject. His bite-size videos on TikTok and witty and approachable style of teaching manners help the young generation avoid feeling uncomfortable in situations where they don’t know if they’re doing the right thing.
Etiquette consultant Antoinette Akanji from the School of Etiquette tells Bored Panda that etiquette is as relevant as it’s ever been. “We would go as far as saying that it’s needed more in today’s society than ever. Our world is increasingly interconnected, and the way we interact with other people has a profound impact on both our personal and professional relationships,” explains Akanji.
Meanwhile, Maryanne Parker, etiquette expert and founder of Manor of Manners, refers to this discipline as the sharpest of soft skills. "We use etiquette in our everyday lives, in any social or business situation. Etiquette is definitely a timeless practice that opens many doors. The purpose is to make everyone feel valued, respected, and at ease," she says.
A Damaged Rim Is An Awful Sight, Especially If You Are Given One As A Guest!
Men are used to this one, elsewhere. We have to knock the drop off so it doesn't mess up while 'putting away'.
Wait, so I'm not supposed to bang it on the edge of the urinal?
Load More Replies...You are supposed to lick the spoon then hurtle it over your shoulder for good luck.
Then chase it with a handful of salt, the milk and three plates
Load More Replies...Finish by licking the spoon. Make loud slurping sounds so everyone knows you like it.
you lean the spoon on the edge and the last drop will leisurely run inside the cup. The remaining "mess" is the saucer's reason d'etre
And you just sent your drops of tea splashing everywhere. Most likely on your shirt, to start with.
How is no one commenting on “a damaged rim being an awful sight” 😱🤣
Well thank goodness I read this, I would be apalled to be considered inelegant!
I was always taught to lightly touch the inverted spoon to the inside of the cup as the surface tension will break and the drops will then drain off without issue. I feel that flicking off the spoon has too much potential for disaster.

What about "Messerschmitt", followed by holding arms out, making airplane sounds?
Is there an approved pronunciation for the written form Messrs? You can't call them messers, it's rude. And Messieurs is just too pretentious.
The right to privacy is the point of “Ms.” No one can tell if a Mr. Is married, so why should women have to announce their status?
Load More Replies...at least theyre not going to get an equivalent to the very insulting Mrs husbands full name. only had that happen once, and made sure to tell them that my name is NOT and never will be Richard. HE'S Richard. I'm Sheena.
When The Cheeseboard Is Passed Around, Don’t Commit This Cardinal Sin!
If it's your favorite cheese, stab it like a boss. Lick all around it and then set it back down. Be sure to maintain eye contact while doing so.
OK, so I am guessing that if it's Brie, licking the insides and putting back the empty rind is probably bad, huh?
Then who gets it? First come, first served. (I usually host gathering and Idgaf who takes it.)
You get a bit of the nose with each slice
Load More Replies...I doubt I'll ever be invited to a party bougie enough to put this one to practical use. Where I'm from we get packs of cheese from the grocery store and cut them into squares, add some Ritz and some fancy lunch meat (like salami) and you've got yourself a party platter!
Was at a wedding once - my best friend was there. We are seated for dinner and I look at her plate and she had taken the entire wheel of brie! She said she thought it was a roll of some kind and she was SOOOOOOO mortified! We laughed so hard, she got mad. Couldn't take it back, she'd already snagged a bite LOL
The etiquette experts often notice that people narrow good manners down to just following arbitrary rules, but note that it’s a lot more than that. “Etiquette is about showing respect, consideration, and kindness to those around us. In today’s fast-paced and often impersonal digital age, good manners can help foster positive communication, reduce misunderstandings, and create a more pleasant and cooperative environment for everyone," says Akanji.
Knowing and having rules of etiquette as a guide helps people navigate social situations with confidence and grace, whether they’re in a professional setting, at a family gathering, or having a casual meet-up with friends.
Down Girl!
I am not sure I have ever, in my fifty-five years on this planet, noticed the direction my tines were facing.
It is indeed, there isn't even a good historical reason for it. For the record, I can do it (even with peas) but I don't. Even etiquette moves on.
Load More Replies...It was originally considered as a sign of disrespect to have the tines facing upwards WAY back in the day. You used your fork to hold your meat (or vegetables) in place so you could cut them up. Then, after laying down the fork, you could flip it over (tines up) in order to spear the food for eating.
This. It is only for when you are using the knife to cut something. Then you set the knife down, and switch. You dont eat peas or rice on the back of the fork.
Load More Replies...Who gives a sh!t. If you are someone who actually pays close enough attention to something so trivial you should ask to borrow the fork and jam it as far up as you can get it.
This is so you don't poke the back of your mouth with your fork, and you don't need to change your arm position. Also, Americans tend to change knife and fork hands, Brits do not.
How far are you shoving the fork into your mouth? Food is supposed to be placed on your tongue so you can taste it and chew it. You're not supposed to try to shove it down your throat!
Load More Replies...Most 'rules' of etiquette are based on an actual reason usually to do (sometimes remotely) with safety. Tines up is a safety risk two ways. 1) The food being cut can't be firmly held thus could move causing a mess and/or the loss of said food and/or cutting yourself. 2) Other things could get poked on the tines.
I'll have to remember these etiquette tips for the next time I'm dining with Charles and Camilla.
People Can Get Very Fussy About At Which Angle This Should Be And In Different Countries It Can Be At Slightly Different Angles, But All Waiters Are Really Looking For Is The Cutlery Going Together To Signal You Are Finished
Lucky for me, I'm in Ohio, where we could give absolutely ZERO FORKS about the way you place your cutlery or this or that, etiquette-wise.
So what do they do? Pull the plate out from under your nose while not finished? Or leaving the plate for ages? Fork and knive next to each other works everywhere in Europe as silent signal you are finished, no matter how much food is left on the plate.
Load More Replies...I simply stab my fork and knife into the table so they are upright and they tend to understand that I'm ready for the check.
5:20 to be precise, and I've heard it too! The 6:30 is a signal for "next dish please" and 9:45 "I did not enjoy this meal"
Load More Replies...Is it just me (from a council estate upbringing) but even we were taught table etiquette at a young age.
Not just you. It was pretty common to be taught these basic table manners in the uk as a kid. Maybe not so much nowadays as mobile phones have definitely crept into mealtimes and eroded families eating together.
Load More Replies...Salad fork tines face downwards, especially when made of real silver. The reason is that the acid in the dressing can cause the silver to tarnish and create more work for the person who has to polish it afterwards.
Oh My God , I put the tines facing downwards. What going to happen now ? Execution ?
Do I have to also make the spread open hands "ta dah!" gesture as shown above when I am finished moving my cutlery about?
I guarantee I will never be eating at a restaurant where this will matter
Discretion Is Great Etiquette
In most places there is no direction you can face and legally blow in public.
Nellie the elephant pack her trunk And said goodbye to the circus Off she went with a trumpety trump Trump trump trump
Who wants to share their blow in public!?! Do you know how much an 8 ball cost now a days.
We were also curious to know if experts think people in today’s society are generally well-mannered. Unfortunately, there’s still a lot of room for improvement. Akanji says, “It varies depending on the context and community. However, one can strongly argue that there are certain areas in society, where good manners are no longer being upheld nor valued, and decorum seems to definitely be on the decline.”
Parker agrees that there are things to work on concerning this subject. "Etiquette continues to be an obscured, unwanted topic for most. Otherwise, we will be learning etiquette in school. Back in the day, etiquette was reserved only for the aristocracy and wealthy families. It was about exclusion!
Today, we have so many etiquette schools and so much information about etiquette that we hardly have an excuse to be ill-mannered. However, good manners start at home and need to be reinforced on a daily basis," says Parker.
When You've Ordered A Bottle Of Wine And They've Poured Just A Little Bit Into Your Glass
Completely incorrect, he doesn’t know what he’s talking about. There are several ways a bottle of wine can go wrong, and even specialists need to taste it, and not just smell it, to assess the quality of the wine. Obviously you don’t drink the whole glass but you definitely have to taste it. Don’t pretend to know what you’re doing with your ridiculous « little sniff ».
100% you're supposed to swirl to see the clarity and check it's "legs," then sniff, then taste. And it should be a full inhale to get all the aroma
Load More Replies...I'm calling BS on this one. The main purpose of a sample is to taste the wine to see if you like it.
No, it's not. If you've ordered a wine that is served by the bottle, the restaurant have opened it specially for you. You should send it back if there's something wrong with it, not if you just decide you don't like it that much.
Load More Replies...What makes this guy think any of us can afford to order wine at a place that wants your approval first? Get real fella!
Some People In The Etiquette World Think That Grape Scissors Are Uncommon, But If You Are Presented With Them It Is Good To Know How To Use Them
Wait, I thought we were supposed to be holding our backpacks in front of our grapes
Who downvoted you? Have an upvote. I love your comment haha
Load More Replies...My fingers are actually grape scissors, trained in separating small grape bunches from bigger grape bunches. :p
I just laughed so hard about this that my dog brought me his favourite stuffed toy because he thought I was crying 😂
Load More Replies...Oh, so THAT'S what all those grape scissors sitting around my house are for!
No, they're the coathangers of the vasectomy world!
Load More Replies...You mean you don't carry a pair of grape scissors with you? I expect there's a Swiss Army knife with a grape scissor included...
Load More Replies...Exactly, I have no need of grape scissors, my grapes arrive in a glass
Load More Replies...TIL that there is such a thing as grape scissors! My mum would have loved this!
Last time I used my grape scissors at McDonald's I got some strange looks ?
Well, in fact I do this, but I use regular scissors, I just don't like the look when everyone picks single grapes. So I just cut the portion I want to eat, that's it, done this my entire life so far.
Grape scissors?! But .. why? Wouldn't you still have to pluck the stem out of the grape???
You Can Spear(S) Your Peas More Elegantly By Using Your Nearest Sticky Foodstuff As A Glue With Your Tines
He still has his fork upside down. I bet you $5 one of the peas falls off before it gets to his mouth. What is the etiquette for getting peas out of your lap?
Reminds me of an old rhyme my great-aunt would say: I eat my peas with honey , I’ve done so all my life. It makes them taste quite funny, but it keeps them on my knife.
Load More Replies...How about use a spoon? Why do they want to make things so difficult and complicated?
Often, the more convoluted/complicated the rule, the more it has to do with separating the 'high class' from the 'lower' classes.
Load More Replies...Peas are eaten last...use the knife to push the food onto your fork and eat.
Eat them first, before they get cold. Also, if the plate is full, the peas have less space to roll around.
Load More Replies...Or you make a little pea volcano in your mashed potatoes and it's fun and delicious
I passed a similar idea on to Terex and Caterpillar, to invert the bucket of their machines and stick the rocks to clay. Didn't bear fruit.
The biggest culprit of this is taking communication to the digital environment, where people in the anonymity of the internet can be rude and lack empathy. However, there’s still hope, as many people still value and practice good manners.
“As etiquette consultants, we are seeing growing movement/ traction towards people wanting to promote kindness, inclusivity, and mindfulness, which only suggests a growing awareness of the importance of respectful interactions and etiquette in general,” Akanji tells us.
No One Likes A Heavy Squirter
I HATE when someone smells as though they took a bath in their perfume or cologne. (It wreaks havoc on my allergies.) And if I can smell it from more 20 feet away, its too d@mn much! It's supposed to be subtle.
Those are usually trying to cover their permanent cigarette stink
Load More Replies...Dude, if you're using five squirts of cologne, you're either that old guy or hipster bro that everyone avoids because you smell like a walking cologne factory.
My grandmother told me that you should never be able to smell a man before you actually see him (she was referring to scent, not sweat or any other bodily fluids).
Speak for yourself, buddy. Squirting means you've done something awfully f*****g *right*...
It's three squirts total. One on your neck and one on each wrist.
Load More Replies...Take it easy on the scents. Perfume is intended to be used so they someone can only smell it when they're in your personal space. Please be kind to people with allergies, sensory issues, and a strong sense of smell.
I'm a huge perfume fan, and I love a lot of very strong, impactful scents, and I still agree. people shouldn't smell you when you pass each other on the street. you should only NOTICE someones perfume if you're quite close. not across the room.
Load More Replies...Definitely Don’t Fold It Into A Swan (Common!)
How about a bishop's mitre, can I fold it into that pattern? I'm really quite proud of my skill
Wrong again. You dip it into the water glass and play restaurant S&M with your partner.
So you’re putting the napkin on the seat where people sit their arses down? How about no.
It's your own seat, you're just putting it there while you are up from the table and removing it when you sit back down
Load More Replies...I ALWAYS bus my table! Gather your glasses together, stack your plates together with trash swept onto them and if there is fabric napkins you gather them into a separate pile. Never make it harder on your server. Why go out if you are also going to throw your table manners out the window ?
You actually don't know how each restaurant or server likes to bus their own tables. I've read many times that they prefer people to just leave their tables as is instead of trying to help because it can actually make it harder for them in the end. I had my own quick way of clearing a table and when people piled plates up with trash and unknown c**p in between it took much longer for me to do then if they had just left it
Load More Replies...Egg And Soldiers Etiquette
Sorry, but what the hell is a soldier and is he going to mind if I dunk him?
It's small strips of toast dunked into the egg. How you accomplish this without getting eggshell all over it, I'll never know.
Load More Replies...I should think it's very rude to eat a soldier at the table.
Especially with grape scissors, you'll be there for hours
Load More Replies...This is how I have always eaten boiled eggs. The white should be just set and yolk runny for your well butterd soldiers
If you find yourself consuming an egg in this manner, take a moment to reflect upon the potential reasons why your empire may have fallen.
There's a little gadget like a pair of shears that neatly snips off the top of the egg.
Grape scissors, egg scissors, good grief!
Load More Replies...Omg, it's hilarious! So pretentious and posh and using knife and spoon? My noble old aunt had egg scissors. Yeah,really, you just used to cut off the tip of soft boiled egg, something like those grape scissors listed on this post. Really dislike people who thinks they are better because they are using grape scissors or spoon and knife for boiling eggs or egg scissors...
I have been assuming he is public school boy unable to comprehend why the rest of us aren't following nanny's rules. Bless the poor chap.
The experts from the School of Etiquette generally remain hopeful. “Overall, while there is much room for improvement, there remains a strong foundation of good manners in pockets of society. It’s our hope that this foundation will only encourage more people to get together and build on that foundation so that we see positive changes and long-lasting growth in society.”
Best Not To Drop The Soap!
The upper classes don't have actual knees. Their legs are permanently folded in case they need to curtsey at short notice. They can't bend over using their backs because they don't have spines.
Load More Replies...OK, I am sorry but it is 4 in the morning where I live and I am trying really hard not to bust a gut laughing and waking my husband up as I read these.
No, no. I do believe the proper way is to put one hand in the small of your back, bend over, then grunt and say “aaah Jaysus me back!”
Or just ask the yogi to pick it up for you. I could come up with a variety of ways to pick it up.
Load More Replies...Man... This is my last comment. This whole thing turns out to be one big gay joke... 🥱😮💨😒
I think you might be right, if so it's whooshed right over my head
Load More Replies...For a "lady" maybe, but for a "gentleman" you just look weird!!!!
And no wonder! He's doing a squat designed not to show off your panties or strain your back! Now, I don't mean to be the enforcer of manliness around here, only to diagnose why he looks wierd, but the manly way of bending over without sticking your butt out would be to kneel down towards ONE knee, as if you were crossing a church or proposing. (Keep your knees clean, though, and only kneel TOWARDS a knee.)
Load More Replies...This is what is recommended in physical therapy to avoid throwing out your back when lifting objects. Even ultra-light tablets that are under a pound from the way people complain about the weight.
"Oops, I dropped my bag of soap!" That's it, you're not going to convince me otherwise, this is just a gay dude teaching us etiquette under the guise of being a snobby Brit. William, yeah, right. Bet his name's Lance or Chad. Not that there's anything wrong with that, just sayin'.
This whole comment is wrong. You might be making a joke here but it's not funny, and the whole "not that there's anything wrong with that" is just like saying " I'm not racist but..." Even if this guy is acting like a total snob and even if he is gay, who cares? Comments like yours are problematic and homophobic
Load More Replies...Dinah Shore taught that you also turn a bit to the side as a straight squat is inelegant, esp if wearing a a dress or skirt.
Do not squat and then turn to your side if you are gonna pick up or drag something heavy, this is how alot of people hurt their backs.
Load More Replies...If I'm in heels and a short skirt, yes. If I'm not going to show my dinner to the world then fûck off, pal
It’s A Sign Of The Tines!
What type of triangle? Acute, obtuse, right, isosceles, equilateral...
Everything about this man screams "obtuse", so that's what I'm going with
Load More Replies...The more of these I read, the more I want to dine with this dude so I can break all these supposed rules just to see the look on his face.
I love how he thinks I stop eating long enough to actually put down my silverware.... Doesn't he recognize that I only put it down when I need to pick up the plate so I can lick it clean (I know better than to bend over my plate - I'm not a scrub).
The proper etiquette is to stab the food straight down, leaving the fork sticking up. Then, take the knife and use it to become the king of Britain's.
Here in Thailand if you cross you cutlery upside down on your plate, it means you are finished eating and your server can take away your dish.
OK, I absolutely refuse to listen to someone who makes the specific face he makes in the first panel. I feel I am being publicly tutted with those disdainful flared nostrils!

Ew. No. I'd much rather keep my gloves on, not get germy, and definitely NOT freeze my hands!
You put an anvil inside the glove, and smack him. (What, Bugs Bunny was classy.)
Load More Replies...Exactly. And as soon as those gloves come off it's all about the hand sanitiser.
Load More Replies...Excatly! I just looked it up...the UK winter temps average 2-7°C with the odd dip below 0°C. Their coldest temp ever was -22°C and while it's not listed when that temp happened my guess would be the winter of 1962-63.
Load More Replies...Ladies are not required to offer an ungloved hand, just in case you want to follow this ridiculous practice
This tradition came from the middle ages, when poisoning was a commonly used method of killing people. By removing your glove before shaking hands, you showed you had good intentions
Well, kind of redundant since Covid. And, quite frankly, knowing how many people don't wash after the potty, I'm quite happy about that.
My mom just flat out says no handshakes. Ever. She loves not touching folks
Load More Replies...yay for shaking hands in winter after pulling off the sweaty glove. Mmmm sweaty hand shakes make great first impressions!
Ok, pretty sure no one told QEII this. Multiple pictures of her keeping on her gloves.
Oh she knew, it just didn't apply to her - it was about keeping distance

Don’t Make This Mistake While Having Your Christmas Lunch!
So you can slurp the contents down all in one go. Then politely set the vessel down and discreetly inform the hostess that you believe we're out of gravy.
Load More Replies...Oh no! I apparently totally ruined last Christmas with my churlish and uncultured behaviour!
Some etiquette rules make sense (for example not chewing with your mouth open, not talking with food in your mouth). Some are just snobby BS.
Sometimes there's a historic reason that makes sense. But many rules have been maintained long after they stopped being useful
Load More Replies...Then use the goblet to scoop up your food and pour it down your pie whole.
I'm sorry, nobody wants their lovely turkey dinner to go cold while their waiting for the 20min it takes for me to LADLE sufficient gravy (I realise that's an etiquette faux pas in itself). I'll carry on pouring, ta.
If your turkey requires that many liters of gravy to be palatable, then it's not so lovely after all. Overcooked, dried-out and fibrous is not my preference.
Load More Replies...Not if you're dining with me, unless there's a second gravy boat so I can do the same - in which case you're golden.
Load More Replies...You May Think That It Is Good Etiquette To Always Use Cutlery, But Did You Know That Correct Etiquette Often Entails Using Your Hands To Eat Food?
We season our asparagus with butter and spices... I will use a fork thank you. I hate oily fingers. (We have a farm ½ a mile away and it's currently asparagus season, so we get it picked the same day. Delicious!)
Nobody except for the British will eat it with their hands either. There's even some weird asparagus fork, that I doubt anyone actually uses, but it exists
Load More Replies..."Dip it in the hollandaise". As a French speaker, I hope you don't do this when you're eating with a Dutch woman.
So, there are special grape scissors, but you eat asparagus using hands?
“If I were to search for logic, I would not look for it among the English upper class.” - the Dowager Countess of Grantham
Load More Replies...No, but it will judge you for everything from the way you cook it, to the way you eat it
Load More Replies......in Britain, it's also considered pretty ponce to use the stalk to dig up into your nose to get those dry crusty snots. Of course, during that procedure, you really ought to utilize a fork rather than your hands..
While Others Should Never Pressurise You To Drink, And You Should Call It Out When It Happens
This is just stupid. If you don’t drink alcohol, who cares? It’s not anybody’s business but your own.
True. If someone is pressuring you to drink they are just an a*****e and have already violated all codes of etiquette.
Load More Replies...Or, you could do the adult thing of clearly communicating to them that while they are free to drink, pressuring someone else to drink makes them an AH and they need to STFU.
I mean, as someone with a drink problem I've done my share of passing doctored drinks off as plain soda, when I've been aware I've had too much... But people having to do it in reverse to fit in is just wrong.
Load More Replies...Former bartender here. I have several names for non-alcoholic beverages (known as mocktails in the USofA) that sound like they have alcohol in them when they actually don't. It's another way of getting your pressuring friends off your case. My two favorites are Sonic Screwdriver (orange juice and Fresca) and Virgin Mary Undone (Bloody Mary but substitute the vodka for Fresca).
Top tip just order whatever you want and discreetly slip ‘that one friend’ the address of the nearest AA meet-up. I’m glad to say I actually don’t have a single friend that’s ever pressured me to drink, or been ashamed to get juice/soda/water/tea if they didn’t feel like drinking, not even during my wild college years.
Why give your friend a cult card? And why do you have cult cards on hand? ! 😭

Ah, of course he is spineless, even to friends. So what's the etiquette on coke?

Respecting people’s personal space is also important. “Be mindful of personal boundaries and avoid invading other people’s personal space without permission,” says Akanji. And when someone is speaking to you, try to listen, avoid interrupting, and show that you value their input.
Muscles > Mussels
Or I can just put the empty shell off to the side and continue to use the fork. Seriously, who makes this garbage up?
Regardless of if it is considered good etiquette or not, this is how I was taught to eat mussels, and it makes sense. You use the first empty shell as pincers to eat the rest. It makes it very easy to get into the shells and detach the meat, works better than trying to scrape them loose with a fork

Where Can You Put Your Bag When Sitting At A Table
No, honestly, until I got my hook, I was always struggling with what to do with my purse. I hate putting it on the floor in many places - it's just... Ew! And there's usually not enough seating for a bag of any size so it ends up on my lap which is uncomfortable. I keep my bag hook in my purse so I have a place to put my purse.
Load More Replies...If you put your bag on the floor, the money will run away. Old Spanish superstition .It'll also make the bottom your bag gross
I think this might be a superstition wide spread in South America also when you put your bag on the floor does it not become easier to steal it?
Load More Replies...I repeat, NEVER put you bag on the floor - people walk there, with their dirty shoes!
See, my purse is a big black fluffy chicken with dangling legs (not a joke!). If there's room, I perch her on the edge of the table with her legs dangling ever so coquettishly. Otherwise, she gets her own seat or hangs on the chair (if her feet aren't dragging), but never on the floor, yikes! I have employed a similar bag hook as the one in the last pic. They come in all kinds of colours and designs.
Hang from the chair if there's room, or my lap if no. Definitely not on the floor, ew!
I have never seen British men carrying such large bags, but you do you.
I love my bag hook, especially when you think how dirty all the floors are everywhere you go and then you go home and put your bag on the kitchen bench...
I have been given a few over the years, but only used them for going-out bags. Nowadays, they've been made redundant by my wheelchair, which carries my bag for me.

But you said that a knife isn't supposed to touch the bread! Make up your mind, man!
Jeezus! What kind of Neanderthal are you? You use the knife to put the butter on the bread but you do it carefully, so as to avoid letting the knife actually touch the bread. The butter is a buffer between the knife and the bread.
Load More Replies...Ideally, you are served with a small plate with a butter knife. You will be served bread from a basket and there will be a butter dish. You take your butter knife, cut off a bit of butter, place the butter on your plate, break the bread and butter it with the butter knife.
Are we buttering every single tiny piece of hand-pulled bread? That's going to take forever!

If you find yourself eating with this guy, take a bite of a chunk of bread, spit it onto his plate, and politely say, "Butter this."
This one goes back to the medieval hall, where the bread that you left would go to the people further down the pecking order. So instead leaving buttered bitten pieces, you left broken pieces that was not so nasty for the servants etc

How To Eat An Unpitted Oliver. Spear It In, Finger It Out
Lift your chin until your neck starts to stiff. Inspire. Spit launch the pit in an upward parabola calculating height and speed so it lands on the side of your plate. Push your seat back gently to receive the standing ovation of your fellow diners.
un-pitted olives shouldn't be served. Already the attempt to spear it typically sends it flying into the enticing cleavage of my date. Best case, if I attempt to "scoop" it up with a fork, it drops on the floor causing the waiter from Bologna to trip.
Who is Oliver, and what if I don't want to eat him?
No eating necessary - just spearing and fingering.
Load More Replies...No. You use your tongue and lips to place the pit onto your fork and then onto the plate
Or you shoot it upwards in the air rolling your lips, as long as you shield it with your non dominant hand, all's well lol

Technically, twirling with a spoon gathers too much spaghetti and then you look like a squirrel with its cheeks full of nuts (no comments. I said what I said.) However, he is giving us "British Etiquette", not American. But you SHOULD keep your twirls much smaller in a restaurant.
What IS the correct way to eat spaghetti? I always twirl a little onto my fork with the tines against the plate.
Disagree with this. My uncle is Italian and uses a spoon.But yes move the pasta to the side

These Puns Are Getting Out Of Control
As somebody who *loves* risotto, the only way to eat it is with a spoon. Using a fork risks leaving some of it behind.
Are you lifting your pinky while typing it with the third finger of each hand? Then yes. :p

Okay, check this: (to the very attentive waiter) Do you serve risotto? - Erm, no. (Pause) Perhaps if you visit Milan (with disdain in his voice and hand movement). We serve food from Bologna.

Extra if you blew your nose in it, sounding like Nelly the Elephant!
Load More Replies...I get his point, and you could also remember what your date wants to order and tell the waiter. With eyes closed ;-) After you gave her a chance to place her order herself. Which works like this: Waiter arrives (you discussed the menu with her). He looks at her. She looks at you, closes eyes. You order, both meals. (this is a test guys!) Then she unrolls the printout of your narrative and your CV to initiate a loose chat for the night.
I've seen this a lot when people get nervous, they open up the menu again so they have something to focus on

Load More Replies...I get all his tips. Thank you. But some dishes you should just not order on a date, or business lunch
Agreed , a knife should never touch bread or a byproduct of bread. The whole loaf should always be consumed in one big gulp
Like, what´s the deal with never using a knife on bread? from what deranged world did this guy come? Is he just eating loaves of bread whole?
He used a knife already to break off a piece of bread that he had already broken by hand in an earlier panel.
Rip it apart with your hands. You don't cut it with a knife because usually it gets smoked while cutting and it's harder to spread the butter.

It Is In Fact Improper To Use Sweetcorn Skewers To Hold The Vegetable In Front Of You And Knaw!
How about don't serve corn-on-the-cob at a fancy dinner function? Maybe already cut that s**t off the cob BEFORE you serve it to me. Become if you serve it on the cob, I'm going to slather it in butter and salt and gnaw like a beaver.
I only clicked this article to say that I will always go full beaver on a corn cob.
No, just NO. You serve me corn on the cob, it's gonna be eaten like God intended corn on the cob to be eaten.

In the US south, you pick that puppy up and eat it from right to left. It's called corn on the cob for a reason.
First of all, you leave the best, most nutritious part on the cob. Second, corn should never be served 'on the cob' at any fine dining venue. Don't order it!
One Of The Most Difficult Dining Situations There Is, You Definitely Shouldn’t Swallow So This Is The Most Discrete Way To Dispose Of Any Gristle
That *is* discrete. In fact, using your hands like that is so discrete that you can also pick your nose that way, and I guarantee that nobody will know what you're doing.
It actually looks like you are trying to pick your nose when you do this, so I am thinking you might forebear eating an olive in public if you do it this way..
Putting both hands up to your mouth surely won't draw attention, right? How about using a napkin and leaving the detritus folded in the napkin? Who is serving you gristle?
