I will now always strive, with little effort, to be a White Trash Mom. I’ll pick up that book for sure.

I’m going to buy this book right now. I was the only mom at gym class the other day wearing ripped jeans. We were in gym class and I didn’t know I had to wear makeup and high heels.

you’ve hit on one of my pet peeves–my opinion of people goes WAY down if they are not nice to the checker at walmart or the server at a restaurant. its just bad news, man, bad news. best way to piss me off (besides leaving your friggin grocery cart away from the rail so someone else’s vehicle can get hit, arseholes)… i digress

Gosh, I’m gonna have to go buy that book! I must have missed it at BlogHer.

Just to our defense, though…Alot of Southerners still use hospitality and manners.Not all, but most.

Thank You Mam,
Jen

I loved Michelle’s book. I read it for PBN a few months ago and couldn’t put it down.

I agree with using manners at a restaurant. We always say thank you to the waitstaff. You know how the waitress/waiter always asks ‘how are you?’ when you first sit down? We always reply and then ask him/her how they are doing as well. I think it is just common courtesy and respectful.

I think there’s something about Chuck E. that brings out the killer instinct in all of us. Probably subliminal message through their sound system.

I run from the Muffia here, to hook up with other spy-moms.

I will have to check the book out. I am surrounded by the Muffia! Beware, they lurk in upper middle class subdivisions and run the PTA!

I’ve stood in line at places like Quizno’s, and listened t every single person start their order this way: “Let me get a…” I can’t imagine why it is that all of the manners-deficient people in a given area have managed to somehow assemble in one area.

Sounds like a good book. I’ll have to read it. And I totally agree about the whole manners thing. It is shocking to me sometimes how rude people can be. I become embarassed for them.
