I was at a concert tonight, it was a smaller venue, for an Indie band. The venue was maybe half full, and only holds about 300, but had a small vertec system and about 5 commercial subwoofer. we were nearthe front row....the band started and 2 girls behind us immediately started having a full on shouting conversation. We could clearly hear them over the band even though they were 10 feet behind us.

I nicely asked them to stop or at least be a little quiter twice. they'd stop for half a song and start again....the thrid time I finally turned around and told them to "Shut up, or move to the back of the space".

My wife felt this was aggressive, and that I was an asshole...I maintain that a concert, especially near the front row in the middle of the crows is not a place for a conversation when the band is playing...I feel like I was probably the asshole, but maintain it was warranted, and multiple people even said thank you.

Im just so tired of poor etiquette at shows.

I work the night shift (9 PM–6 AM), and after work this morning, my friends and I stopped at a food stall near our office for breakfast.

The place was busy because it was early morning people were eating, and others were out for their walks and jogging.

An man was also sitting there eating. He farted once, and nobody really cared. But then he kept doing it over and over while everyone around him was trying to eat.

It got so uncomfortable that a few people actually moved away and gave him space. The whole atmosphere changed, and honestly, it ruined our appetite.

I know farting is a natural bodily function, and sometimes people can't control it. But if it keeps happening while you're sitting in a crowded public eating area, does it cross into being a hygiene issue or is it just bad manners?

Curious how others here would feel in this situation.

Do they sell it this way, or is it something you can ask them to do when you order one?
