"Love is not rude"
Rudeness is on the rise. It seems like people are more abusive

6. People who light their cigarettes in a restaurant and hold
it back in your area instead of smoking it in their
area.
5. People who let their children disturb everyone at church.
4. People who take more than ten items through the express
check out lane.
3. People who try to sell their products through a computer
generated
phone call.
