Politeness

The thing about Britta is that she is uncivilized, for lack of a better word. She will happily keep eye contact with strangers until they feel uncomfortable. Once they break her gaze, she often will full-on invade their personal space in an all-out index finger assault.

"Dis! Dis!" (see prior post for explanation)

Britta has been heard to eruct during dinners with guest, without so much as raising an eyebrow of apology. If only that were her only gaseous emission! Ministers' prayers have been disrupted by rumbles-in-the-bumble to the disdain of staid ladies with hatted heads.

We, being responsible parents, take this with the utmost sobriety. Where could Britta be picking up these barbaric habits?
