Still I Wonder...

What in the world makes people behave the way they do? Are there really that many people out there with NO Social Skills?

For most of my adult life, I have been made fun of because I'm from Jersey. And ya know people from Jersey are...well, you know the stereo-types loud, big-hair, rude, pushy, foul-mouthed, really we could go on for awhile. While all of those things may be true, I for one, am aware of my company and act appropriately. While I did have dinner at the White House in Flip-Flops, I never uttered a foul word within those walls:) Because there is a time and place for manners and I actually do know when that is.

While you may think I "say-it-like-it-is" I really don't and again, this is because I actually DO have social skills and know that telling someone that they are fat, ugly, stupid is just not something polite people do. Oh, I think it just like everyone else, but common decency calls for some control over ones thoughts ALWAYS come out of ones mouth! And sometimes I do say it, but I KNOW what I am saying when I say it!

I know that I complain about this often, but I am just so blown-away by peoples actions and statements, that I have to keep reminding myself that people from New Jersey are often criticized for their lack of class, and that might be true, but I sure as hell know when I am being classless and rude. So, I am of the belief that having the intelligence to understand that I am being rude is better than you being to stupid to see that you are rude!
