In another thread this morning, I wrote an agreeing and commiserating rant about people who have bad manners. These clods are inflicting themselves on others, more and more, and everywhere. I try not to rant. But sometimes I just have to.

Anyway, I almost deleted what I wrote because......why bother.......but I decided instead to come over here to "Girl Talk" to recommend a book on the topic of my rant.......

The book is Rude B**ches Make Me Tired: slightly profane and entirely logical answers to modern etiquette dilemmas by Celia Rivenbark. (The title says it all.)

Celia Rivenbark is a southern writer with a bit of a mouth on her and an insightful attitude......I like her. I am just aggravated because she writes stuff I think but I did not write a book. Dammit. Oh well, anyway........One of her other books is Stop Dressing Your Six-Year Old Like A Skank. (I have not read that one yet.)

Rivenbark says things that need to be said. Sometimes her writing makes me laugh out loud.
