New Year, No Impressive Changes

While I may not be an uber optimistic person or Emily Post, when it comes to etiquette (although it's top 5 for my favorite books), I do think society has lost some of the good old fashioned traditions about being a decent person.

So my question is when did it become okay to just do whatever? Ya I get the whole "do what you want, do what makes you happy, do what moves you, etc". But when did it become okay to do any of the following? What is wrong with people?

• When did it become okay to...not RSVP to events, showers, weddings, etc?
• When did it become okay to...not work?
• When did it become okay to...be on welfare?
• When did it become okay to...not to stop at stop signs?
• When did it become okay to...have children and go out and party every weekend while your kids are home?
• When did it become okay to...wear pajamas in public places? For real, keep that crap at home
• When did it become okay to...bring your dog to the store? Ya know, Nordstroms, Safeway, etc. 
• When did it become okay to...not follow rules of any kind?
• When did it become okay to...not respect police or law enforcement of any kind?
• When did it become okay to...not help with anything when you were invited to be in a wedding party?
• When did it become okay to...not make your child's Halloween costume?
• When did it become okay to...play video games all day instead of work, have a hobby or anything really?
• When did it become okay to...judge people who produce your food, when you could have no hope of ever providing for yourself?
• When did it become okay to...not write a thank you card when you receive a gift or gesture? (No a Christmas card with a pre-printed thank you does not count)
• When did it become okay to...to sell any kind of product just so you can get it cheaper? Ya know have parties and beg friends to buy the crap-- I don't want it, can't afford it and don't need it
• When did it become okay to...not cook? If it started in a box, it doesn't count...
• When did it become okay to...get high just to get through the day? We all have issues... Work your shiz out some other way
• When did it become okay to...spend un-godly amounts of money on livestock, just so your kids can win? 
• When did it become okay to...have a reality TV show about literally anything?! NO ONE CARES
• When did it become okay to...expect something in return for doing community service or making a donation? You know what you get? A good feeling for doing something for someone other than yourself...
• When did it become okay to...let your children make the rules and never say no? They are children...
• When did it become okay to...become a "photographer" and charge people money, when you have no training or education?
• When did it become okay to...create a blog about nothing?? (HAHAHA guilty!)

Whether you agree or disagree, well that's up to you. But seriously consider what is wrong with society... Because none of this is okay...

Just remember, it's all in good fun!!
