it is a form of “proper” every human must try to succumb to. whether we like it or not it will happen. proper etiquette for a 3 year old is not to pee on the carpet; proper etiquette for a 20 year old is wearing a tie to a black tie dinner. it comes with time. it comes with age. it will happen.

is standard in households that see the proper action in things and fulfill the need to complete their duty inherent to them in society. It’s really a societal concern, it has nothing to do with me. its asking me again to expound on this but it seems to me that the trouble in thought here is the typing…or the ability to, as it were. There doesn’t seem to be a concern on the part of the machine.

Proper etiquette is something acquired. It is something most young children do not posses and must be taught. I do not like to be around people who do not have proper etiquette for I become very annoyed with them and their lack of manners. There is such thing called cotillion where kids can go to learn proper manners or etiquette, but I think that might be a little too extreme.
teaching my three year old how to say please and thank you seems like a simple request. but toddlers are not quite cooperative. you may find yourself reminding them often, though deep inside one knows “they know”.
“Don’t be stupid, brother,” she murmured, her green eyes piercing his grey ones. “Have you forgotten the meaning of the word ‘etiquette’?”
“I may be drunk, Liesel, but I’m not stupid!” he cried, standing abruptly and knocking several empty bottles to the floor. “I. . . I just hate sleeping alone,” his voice was now a harsh whisper as he stared at some stain on the old oak floors of his sister’s new home.
She cast him a sympathetic look before chanting her numerous apologies for his poor behavior.
GOOD MANNERED RICH PEOPLE.

Etiquette. I was forced to take a class for school in 6th and 7th grade for etiquette. Place the napkin in your lap while eating, on the chair while you’re away from the table, and on the table when you’re finished with the meal. Etiquette. It’s what’s expected in certain societies. What happens when you enter another? It’s foreign. Culture shock. Oh dear.
I never learned proper etiquette as a little girl, so I was seriously questioning why I was here now. Ah, right. To impress a girl. It was always a girl. But I never met a girl like her before. Stunningly beautiful, as kind as a goddess, she had quickly become the center of my Universe, and I’d never even spoken to her yet! The things one does for love.
She walked into the ancient family manor and gasped with awe. She saw perfect color combinations which took her breath away. To me in a home like this meant that she had to use her best etiquette. Sandra was then joined by her hostess.
Doug
Ughhh, what my mom says I do not have enough of. It’s for polite people. The proper people. WHICH IS NOT ME. Being prim and proper like at dinner. Blahh
Becca Robertson
I would like to think i have good etiquette, but when you are with people you know well, does it even matter? because if someone really cares about you, why would they care about properness?
Etiquette is a very much hyped word. Lots of things are forced upon you because of it. I feel the best is to behave in a manner which is clean and comfortable. It should not be offensive to the people around you. The civilised world has many classes for young ladies to learn proper etiquette
Abhilash
It was etiquette of her to say hello, although it was nothing special because everyone is suppose to say some sort of greeting either a kiss on the hand or one on both cheeks, i guess it really depends on the culture. I just hope we won’t end up spitting on each other’s shoes…
Zuzanna
Etiquette, me? oh that’s funny, real funny. Nope, I’ve never taken siquiera a whiff of etiquette in my life. Hell, I can barley keep my food off my hands and face or my back from hunching at all times. Besides, every time the word etiquette comes to mind it instantly transforms into fake, plastic, and fool. But to each its own. If you want to play up fantastic images of times ago then won’t you please be my guest?
it is always good to have impeccable etiquette. you will be more desirable if you possess good manners. if you have bad etiquette, you will not be invited back to any dinners and you will grow old and alone and eventually become a cat lady. nobody wants that!
Vic
your etiquette is horrible.
rawr.
hagface.
Rawrr.
‘Etiquette’ always seemed like such a fun word for me to write. I think I just like the way it looks on paper more so than actually thinking about what the word is, which is an action, of manners.
do what comes naturally, what feels right, what will please you and perhaps what will please others, be creative, be yourself, and screw the arbitrariness of etiquette – short of disrespect.
ps and qs are social mannerism which if not foolowed will lead to social exclusion and hence are highly regarded in interactions. they are of importance in any gathering and decide your stautus
Akshita
the style used to do things proper everything in its place. the way used by those rich and powerful the ones that have dinner partys and tea time. its what everyone should know and be aware of also be etiquette
Alanna
it happens at dinner. its common courtesy. you should have this at times of meeting people. its a life skill. it common to see it at the dinner table. you should always use it. its the proper thing to do. usually the younger you are, the less you us etiquette. now that i think about it, i havent used the word in this paragraph haha.
kelly
i am. you are we all should be. there is non left in the world except f a mighty few. those to claim to be are showing very little. but the claim is based off of experience and can be legitimate.

It is such a little thing of niceties. Usually dependent on a woman’s sensibilities. It sometimes hinges on unreality. These subtleties of pleasing and being pleased. My spoon falls to the floor. Clumsy a brute evermore.
A proper lady must always have proper etiquette. She must know how to dine elegantly and without dropping any food on herself. She must speak properly and use manners at all times. And, most unfortunately, she must know how to walk and dance like a proper lady.
“Kill me now,” he said to himself as he walked tediously across the room, pointed heels on his shoes, and a thick book balanced on his head.
Following the rules is boring.. Why should you do everything you are told to do? Life is about breaking outside the box, creating something new and exciting and revolutionary. No one has ever achieved their dreams by following everything by the textbook. Take some risks.
the fancy lady wanted the younger girls to pay attention to this class that she organized for the past few weeks. It seemed her time and effort was ruined by the minimal attention span of eleven through thirteen year old girls. Manners: a dying art form.
Layne
She sat straight and held the teacup daintily in her hands. One look from her Mentor and she puffed out her chest further, forcing herself to look regal and royal. If only she could escape this life.
Rynn J. Stark
She told me a hundred times that she would some day teach me strict, Victorian etiquette. She always scolded me for slouching, eating messily, anything she could. Now, I just wish she were here to teach me. I wish she was here, just so I could hold her one last time.
Katherine
sometimes etiquette is overrated. we don’t know where it comes from or where it goes but it’s expected of us all to be.. polite… all the time. and it makes no sense that we should have rules to this thing called life. because who decided that life had an exact set of dos and do-nots. the puritans, i bet. damn puritans.
Meg
alright so i’m pretty sure this means like manners or some shit. like table manners. i dont know. i’ve never learned this word and have never used it in my vocabulary. the end.
Jordan
this reminds me of england. americans dont act as etiquette as they do. my favorite dish to eat is lasagna. the princess just recently married the prince in england.
Etiquette. How can you describe this word? A lot of people want to have it, but most fail miserably. Some people think it’s over-rated and others think it’s a necessity. If you don’t show proper etiquette, what does that make you? Are you rude? Inconsiderate? How will your actions be taken?
Sierra
Everybody thought that just because she was from England, she was supposed to have superior etiquette, and to be very posh. That was far from the truth. She was, truthfully, quite rude. With a thick British accent, tattoos, and she sometimes burped out loud. The sweet, sweet irony.
emily
Strange concept. Etiquette. It varies so much from place to place — not even cultures, but home to home. Take bridal showers. Why bother? Do we really need such a thing in this
what people thinks you need to be part from the royalty, or their families. hm, I don’t really have it, LOL. But I want to have it. Like really. But if you’re poor you dont really need it, right?
Anna
He had absolutely no etiquette. He would climb through the brunette’s window in the middle of the night, burst into the room and shout obscenities for no good reason, and he bugged him to no end. Too bad Roderich loved him…
Raegan
i guess it’s nice. but i think it’s stupid sometimes. let people be the way they are. but everyone should have common courtesy. everyone should be aware of their actions towards other people. but, at the same time, do whatever you want and be whoever you want, don’t let society tell you what’s wrong or right.

She found the etiquette of this new society to be quite strange. Was properly trimming your mustache really that necessary?
I can, I can’t. Rules. How to eat. What to do in an elevator. God, what is this world coming to! Guess we do need it though!
A proper lady must always have proper etiquette. She must know how to dine elegantly and without dropping any food on herself. She must speak properly and use manners at all times. And, most unfortunately, she must know how to walk and dance like a proper lady.
