"Now say Thank You"

"You know what grinds my gears ?" (True Family Guy fans stand up)

I hate it when someone does something nice for you, you say thank you because your mother raised u...not dragged you up. And you don't get as much as a head nod for being polite. Under normal circumstances I wouldn't rant about this minor infraction, however it happened to me three times in all of 3 minutes; needless to say I was a little overwhelmed. (Sidenote: you can only be overwhelmed or underwhelmed, never whelmed)

Newho. I think it is completely ridicilous for adults to constantly make an effort to make children say please and thank you over and over again when they are young for things such as bottles or food, when these sayings are lost in infantile amnesia or just plain forgotten as you get older. For those of you in blog land please remember to be polite and say please and thank you for they trully are the magic words.
