Maybe one of our greatest social ills today is inappropriate social behavior.
People don't respect others and make it a point not to be considerate at all, it would seem.
When you do a good deed, or you act kindly to others, it seems as if you are going against the tide, against the mainstream.
Here are some of the most common examples of bad manners:
- speaking loudly in public
- cutting someone off in a conversation
- staying in your seat on a bus or a train while an older person is standing
- playing music on a loudspeaker
- singing out loud while listening to music
- deliberately rubbing up on someone in a crowded subway car
- looking down a women's cleavage
- not cleaning your dog poop
- hogging or not sharing a seat on public transport
- doing "exercises" on public transport: pull ups for example
Here are some more, but this time you have to find the words or expressions on the right that match with the verbs on the left:
Did you know that there are fines for some of these anti-social actions?
But what is more important in your opinion, having a rule that prescibes a fine or having someone to enforce the rule?
