Golden Rules - your argument against these need not apply.

This list could probably be a mile long but I'm trying to keep it basic and simple. I feel like (most of) these apply to anyone, regardless of their gender, age, race, religion, ethnicity, culture and believe me, these are hard to argue. Try me.

1. If you are the last one to arrive anywhere, YOU are the one greeting the crowd, not the other way around. 
2. If you are getting on the train, elevator, bus – you let the crowd exit FIRST, and then proceed to enter. 
3. If we are standing in line and I can feel your breath at my neck, you are too close in my personal and bodily space.
4. Swedish meatballs are bullshit. 
   
5. Sneezing, coughing, yawning – cover your mouth
6. Farting and burping – literally the same from two different body holes, and only uneducated TRASH do both in public areas where people can hear you. And smell you. (The ONE and only counter argument for this is health reasons – anxiety, stomach issues etc. If you’re physically suffering, let it rip.)
7. If you’re having a meal with a crowd and everyone is eating french-fries or salad or chicken sandwich, and you’re eating steak and lobster, you better f*cking contribute more money to the check (if the crowd is not splitting the bill.)
8. Never EVER comment on someone’s appearance. Someone’s skin, hair color, weight and what they are wearing is not your business. Rule of thumb: if you point out something  on someone, it better be something a person can fix in FIVE SECONDS or less (examples: food stuck in teeth, toilet paper stuck on a shoe, unzipped pants, skirt lifted up in the back, lipstick smeared all over chin.) If I can fix it in 5 seconds or less, tell me. Do not tell me “you’re wearing too much make up”, “you are too fat/skinny." FULL STOP. 
   
9. “If it’s not happening to me, it’s not happening anywhere and to anyone else.” FULL STOP. Your experience is not universal. Either you help/educate or stay in your lane.
10. Wearing white dress to someone else’s wedding. I am a raging intersectional feminist to my core – and this is ONE old school rule that will never ever die because it is not detrimental to anyone’s gender. Human eye can perceive 7 MILLION colors and you chose to be tacky.
11. If I hand you my phone to show you a photo, DO NOT SCROLL THROUGH MY F*CKING ALBUM. Do not go through other people's stuff without their permission. Yes, its mostly cats, recipes and memes, but that don't matter, do not just scroll through my shit...I will eat your heart.
    
12. If you have to ask yourself "will this make someone uncomfortable" - don't do it or say it. 
13. Someone's income, choice of partner, level of education, job, parenting ways - not your business, keep your shitty opinion to yourself.
