I'm in the moderate group too.  I was taught "please" and "thank you" and to generally be polite.  But if I have a little too much to drink, my brain and my mouth are not always on the same page.   :question:
LOL...been there and done that. :wink:
Yes,I'm fine....as long as I don't look too closely.

I try to be polite.. I have no understanding of the fork thing or the drinking glasses and stuff.  I just try to avoid doing the things that I've been told not to do or that I notice other people doing that I find rude.. like I can't stand when people chew with their mouth open, especially kids.  I always say please and thank you.  I don't put my elbows on the table.  I don't talk about eating brains or anything like that when I think it might gross people out.

I burp a lot, not on purpose to be cool (although it's totally cool sometimes!!), I'm just very gassy.. but I try to do one of those silent nasal burps if I'm at a table even if it burns my nostrils and makes my eyes water.

DS - You're totally right about the table thing!  If I'm going out with friends or family and we meet at a restaurant we always ask whoever gets there first to get a table.  No one wants to wait!   It is rude to order before the other people get there.. maybe your wife was just confused.

I'm a lapsed high... my mother raised me up right and I know bits of etiquette you wouldn't believe, but I have backslid to a  moderate.   I do value politeness hugely though and i"ll never be deliberately rude to anyone.

PS Nice to see you Paquita.

One should never chew with your mouth open when eating kids, thats a horrbible thing to do.

Sometimes I breech etiquette for the sake of the... lifeplay.  I often am the only one amused.   :thumbup: :lookingup:

and if somebody says "make yourself at home," I only take off my pants and start scratching myself on the couch if I'm wearing clean underwear.

In fact, I am very comfortable around you guys.  I'm farting right now.  And enjoying it.

I have Asperger's.
I wouldn't know the difference.
Thank you, Sheldon.

I'm moderate most of the time, except with close friends.
