Exclamation Etiquette Police is Recruiting!

If any of you guys are interested in joining Etiquette Police you can
register at their website: EtiquettePolice.com. It's a pretty good
online Etiquette course that is free and designed to upgrade your
etiquette IQ. I got myself registered and passed their 100 MCQ test
that includes questions on dining etiquette, wedding, business, flag
etiquettes, netiquette etc. On passing you'll also receive a
certificate in your email. It's definitely a very useful course,
however, just wondering why they have named it EtiquettePolice.com.
Perhaps policing the etiquette is bad manners

WTF are you people talking about?! We are the kings and queens of etiquette around here! We could do a great job of policing this board. Besides, I always wanted a pair of handcuffs...

Okay...let's face facts here. How many people really want to volunteer to be the most annoying person in a gathering of people? hmmmm? Anyone?

I find this entire idea sad for 2 reasons.

First of all, if you haven't figured out how to be polite when the need arises by now, you were meant to be a dick...or a bitch on wheels... Having somebody express their concern that you may sound like a dick....or a bitch on wheels, is not only redundant, but serves absolutely no purpose whatsoever. It changes nothing.

Secondly, who wants to be a guy at a bar making sure people drink with their pinky up? Huh? Anybody? Waiving their finger and "tisk tisk"ing around the room? Yer liable to get your Cosmo shoved right up yer rectum!

It is complete and total crap that anybody would declare themselves to be the official gold standard of interpersonal relations. That very declaration shall be the reason why you're standing in the corner of a crowded room by yourself. When I feel the need to be judged I will surely let you know!

:gets off soap box:
:smashes soap box accordingly:

Is this for real? The etiquette police? What do they eat while on duty? Donuts made from whole wheat and decaffeinated coffee?
