Anal etiquette

Anal etiquette is simply asking if the partner has a clean poop shoot. The last thing anybody wants when they go anal is dookie on their finger and or penis.

Hi as we agreed on anal tonight. How is everything looking? Is everything clear? Are we in there like swimwear? Or do we need to wait. That is the proper way to do anal etiquette. Nobody wants a surprise .

escalator etiquette

Rules of courtesy for using an escalator, particularly in Japan. Essentially, if you are not going to continue walking while on the escalator, stick to one side (in Japan, the left side) so that walkers have room to pass.

"If you're going to treat the escalator like a theme park ride, at least have the decency to observe escalator etiquette."

joke-etiquette

The concept that when presented with the set-up for a joke, the listener willingly moves the joke forward toward the punch-line in a timely manner. Poor joke-etiquette refers to the practice of the listener attempting to figure out the punchline or delaying the telling in order to steal the teller's thunder, thus spoiling his/her efforts.

An example of good joke-etiquette.
bob: knock, knock.
neil: who's there? (=good joke-etiquette)
bob: go fuck yourself!

An example of poor joke-etiquette.
bob: knock, knock.
neil: go fuck yourself, I hate knock, knock jokes! (=poor joke-etiquette.)

Facebook Etiquette

The definition of what is acceptable protocol when using Facebook, specifically whether or not it is acceptable to ask someone out through this forum or if that would be perceived as stalking and creepy. This relates to someone you have not yet met properly.

Facebook Etiquette: hypothetical situation as follows: guy meets girl but has minimal opportunity to communicate since the meeting point thus far has been in a loud bar, albeit a top, top place! Girl has a particularly gorgeous smile! Guy takes matters into his own hands and plans a surprise delivery of flowers and a package to said bar during a charity event (is this poor timing?) Guy & girl become FB friends. Is it then acceptable protocol to pursue further contact via FB or should they wait until the next chance encounter at the noisy bar?

Consensus is: Nothing ventured, nothing gained, & Life is too short. ***This is contingent upon girl not being easily offended & a tad on the adventurous side.
