Some people are rude to everyone, and you have to feel sorry for them, really. (They tend to have few friends.) But what really bugs me is people with the Eddie Haskell Syndrome. Eddie Haskell, of course was a character on the '50s sitcom Leave it to Beaver. A friend of the Beaver's older brother Wally, he was a two-faced weasel who'd be an unctuous toady with the Cleaver parents, then turn around and be nasty to Beaver. (Lumpy Rutherford wasn't as nasty, though he tended to give Beaver the brushoff.)
What I mean by the Eddie Haskell Syndrome is people who are perfectly polite to those they see as their equals, and especially to their superiors, but feel free to be perfectly rude to people of a lower status. One example of people considered unworthy of courtesy is the servant class. Being rude to servants is the one of the worst things you can be in this life! Billy Wilder was one of Hollywood's great directors, but according to Frank Sinatra's valet he was rude to servants. (Maybe that's a Continental European thing. And great directors are often pain in the neck types.) I've heard that Leona Helmsley--pray for her worthless soul--couldn't keep any domestics for more than a year, and i doubt that's because she was too polite to them.
We hear of Manhattan millionaires who'll chew out the servants in front of guests. Even if they don't care about their servants' feelings, you'd think they'd at least want to avoid making their guests uncomfortable. But maybe some of them are doing it, in an odd way, to impress their guests. You know, it really isn't hard to make an impression on people--if you don't care what kind of impression you make! (Like when schoolboy Marlon Brando wrote the word "shit" on the blackboard in really big letters with kerosene, then set it on fire.)
Another example is people being rude to children. I mentioned Eddie Haskell, and you often get teenagers, in particular who refuse to grant to younger kids the regular courtesies they know enough to give most people. They have a semi-mature attitude: "I'm older and wiser than you, so it's up to you to earn my respect and not vice versa." In this sense age is a bit like class, where the worst snobs are the upwardly mobile: they don't feel completely secure in their new class and want to keep their old class at a safe distance. They feel like an adult when they treat someone younger as a child. The truly mature don't have such a need.

Florida Georgia Line is my favourite contry band. Headliners Brian Kelley and Tyler Hubbard are those people that could make anyone sing along with them. It's the reason I like to attend their concerts. And - that's surprisingly beatiful - in 2019 they have CAN'T SAY IT AIN'T COUNTRY TOUR which covers all the USA towns and cities.

Breaking Benjamin is my favourite band of 2000s. Breaking Benjamin had so many hit songs! The ones I remember are 'The Diary of Jane', 'Tourniquet' and their hit 'So Cold'. These are real songs, not fake ones like today! And it is sooo good that Breaking Benjamin have a tour in 2019-2020! And I'm going to attend Breaking Benjamin concert in 2020. The tour dates is here: Breaking Benjamin tour dates 2020. Click on it and maybe we can even visit one of the Benjamin's together! |
