Push your chairs back under the table when you’re finished after eating or in a business meeting conference. ( Talking to all you inconsiderate tech employee a-holes).
Hold the door if people are direct behind you. Allow a pediatrician to pass or cross. Treat others how you want to be treated, don’t raise your kids to be assholes or hateful.
Return your cart to the cart return.
when someone lets you over on the highway/road- You wave the classic “Thank you wave”
stop throwing garbage out of your car- This is a spoken rule but apparently no one listens to it
Don’t sudden stop walking to look at your phone in public. ‘Pull over’ to the side, away from the flow of pedestrians. This also goes for people who approach train station exits without having their ticket ready for the barriers. You’ve had ages to get your shit ready, and now you’re causing a blockage. F*** you.
If you want to listen to your show or music in public, use headphones. Nobody wants to be trapped in public transit or out for a meal with your noise .
Also, announce your presence when passing someone on your bike.
Can’t tell you how many people out there just blatantly chomp away with that disgusting sound of moist food being squished around their mouths for all to hear.
A guy at work will sit through meetings at work chewing gum super loudly. It’s a quiet room and all you can hear is this disgusting sound of him chewing. Drives me insane
If a shop is busy maybe don’t stand in the middle of the aisle staring off into space while people are trying to get around you. General spacial awareness, too.
Ask permission before posting a picture that has someone else in it to social media. Best case scenario they don’t like how they look in that picture, worst case scenario they have safety/privacy concerns you just violated.
ETA: filming and posting random strangers should be included in this
When in a gym locker or dressing room, don’t pull your phone out for a selfie. People around you are in various stages of undress and have an expectation of privacy.
Not everything the news or media tells you is true.
Use your brains people (especially in the USA).
Second only to: Average intelligence is just that. There is half the population that are lower intelligence than average (well, mean/median specifically, before I get voted down. You know what I mean.)
If you offer someone food or alcohol do not press them to take it if they say no. You don’t know what they could be allergic to or if they are avoiding alcohol.
Use your god damn headphones. Get the cheapest wired ones with a $1.99 USB-C adapter if you can’t afford fancy ones. No one wants to hear grandma on Facetime at a fancy stakehouse or on the train.
When in a parking spot, don’t put your car into reverse until you are actually backing out of the spot! I absolutely hate when people put their car in reverse then sit there. Just when you think it’s safe to go behind them…they start to back up. Every time!

When walking on a sidewalk or the shopping mall, use the same general rules as local traffic. Eg, if you’re in North America, walk on the right side.
