I am still learning manners even this late in life. Slow learner + a bit aspie + manners not taught much in school :(.

Moving to San Francisco from Missouri was a huge politeness shock lesson for me. Just now recuperating to Missouri-levels of expressiveness.

Oh, extremely way more polite (at least conversationally). On-the-street impoliteness seems like an overblown complaint to me.

Huh, never heard someone describe one place as more polite than another. And your transition difficulties were in adapting to the new norms?

Interesting; New York frequently cited to me as highly combative culture. Most travelling naturally bumps against unknown sacred boundaries.

Ok yeah, don’t know what I was thinking. Also “Southern hospitality.” Guess I just never heard SF described as polite.
