professional courtesy

A form of mutual respect among people in the same line of work.

As Dan finished plowing his driveway, a county snowplow came along and threw more snow into it. "Dammit!" he yelled. "How about a little bit of professional courtesy here?"

courtesy laugh

When someone tells an absolutely terrible joke, and no one laughs, you give them a courtesy laugh. This should not be mocking and done very tastefully.

Jim- "...And so the atom says, 'I lost an electron!' And the bartender says, 'Are you sure?' and the atom goes,'I'm Postive!'"

Jake (thinking)- Holy fuck that was a horrible joke, he needs a courtesy laugh

Jake- HA HA HA
*silence*

Mosh Pit Courtesy

The gentlemanly and friendly attitude that exists within the violence of the mosh pits.

Whether you are in a fast paced circle pit, or a wall of death, or in the regular pits, you can be as violent and crazy as you like, but if you see somebody fall over (especially if it is a smaller guy or a lady), you do not hesitate to get them back on their feet.

This courtesy also applies in open pits when there is one on one moshing, and, even if you beat the crap out of the other guy, at the end of the song and the mosh breaks up, you give the guy you've just been pulverising a hug, and tell them well played.

its moshpit courtesy :)

I was in the middle of the pit and saw a kid on the floor, i decided to be a gent and lift them up onto their feet. Its mosh pit courtesy.

*thump**smack**kick* nice one man (gives hug)

Courtesy Rev

An old car or hot rod's way of expressing respect for another car the driver thinks is sharp. The courtesy rev is often returned.No horns are involved because most vehicles who use the courtesy rev have long been without a horn.

Levi: "Damn look at that 69' Z/28"
Cody: "Courtesy Rev man!"

Courtesy date

A charitable second date one offers just because they slept with the other person on the first date; used to block feelings of 'being used,' not to be followed up by future dates.

Person A: I don't really like her, but I definitely slept with her the first time we went out. Do you think she'll feel used if I don't ask her out again?

Person B: Don't worry about it! Just take her on a quick courtesy date. All it takes it one chai and you've got a free pass out.

Person A: Awesome.

Courtesy Creep

After someone adds you on Facebook and you immediately check their posts, look through their pictures and just generally creep on their profile for the first time.

John just added me! I saw that picture of you during the courtesy creep.
