It is rude in my opinion as well Diamonds, but you will be amazed how many people think nothing of it.  |

It has always been acceptable to eat in the street in the far southwest, generations have walked around stuffing Cornish pasties in their mouths, no one bats an eye.  Fish and chips at sea side towns has always been the norm.
Maybe talking in acronyms? Lol  |

We were raised to eat with our mouths closed. Now I see people slobbering away, with accompanying sounds that have me ready to heave. If someone has such poor motor and behavioural control, this is justification enough to warrant straight jackets and paralysing darts, to aide society from ill begotten harm. In bygone ages it would also have been vulgar, to put it mildly, if a gentleman exposed his under garments before others, unless in a brothel. Now trousers are falling down by design, and calls to the police, informing of indecency remain unanswered. |

Trying to outdo everyone by having a bigger house, newer car, better clothes at the same time becoming uncivil and socially inept. It's all a lie.
Have we really progressed in the last twenty or thirty years? Technically yes, but I fear socially we are moving back into the dark ages! Keep on smiling though lol

I always stop and bow my head as a funeral cortege goes by. I rarely see anyone my age or younger do it. It's just basic respect, unfortunately not taught anymore. |

"Walking around with a fresh bag of dog poop. "
I find I feel a lot less conspicuous with a fresh bag of poop as opposed to a stale bag of dog poop. That would be just weird.  |

Being depressed - everyone knows someone on antidepressants
Landlords not giving a fuck!!
Councils not giving a fuck
Towns over run by foreigners - impossible to walk down my street with out hearing 3/4 different languages

People openly smoking dope in the streets without a care.
The socially acceptable use of the word 'fuck' and its loss of all impact. It lost Dave Allen his career at the BBC when said once, these days it's almost made it's way onto children's TV |

I always do a sign of the Cross and bow my head.
This is common place in Ireland |

And to flip the coin - used to be in and out of each others houses as a kid, now everyone keeps their doors locked and neighbours keep themselves to themselves |

"Shops open on a Sunday.
When I was growing up the only things open on a Sunday was the church doors and the pub.
"
And the Chinese take-away.
Which could sell fish and chips, but the fish and chip shop couldn't... |

When I was a kid all pedestrians would halt in their tracks, turn to face the road, remove hats and lower heads. It was considered poor form to look or stare at the cortege as it passed. |

"Swearing. "
Many people seem to think that using the word 'fucking' In every sentence is acceptable.
Men never used to swear in front of women, now many women think nothing of using the f and c word. |
