Where I live (UK):
Kids: "Fuck off paedo!"
Teens: "Cheers"
Adults: "Cheers"
Old People: *scowl*

In israel:
Kids: thank you
Teens: .....
Adults: thanks
Olad people: (what op said)

everytime I hold the door open, I get stuck because no one else will grab it.......

British Version: Cheers.

9/10 would play bingo with.

"Heey, i guess they are right. Senior citizen are the slow, and dangerous behind a wheel. Can still serve a purpose."

in my country

I don't always hold the door open, but when I do...


I'm holding it open for the entire population of MA.

I have never once had a teenager thank me for holding a door open for them.

Yep, it's story time.

So I was going back inside the school after a fire drill and decided what the hell, I'll be polite. So I hold open the door. As hundreds of people are filing in the door, this bitch walks up and says "I don't need a man like you to hold open the door!" and proceeds to punch me in the shoulder. So when she finally decided to walk inside, I slammed the door on her ass.

I don't understand why people do the stupid things they do. But they shouldn't injure people trying to do even slightly polite things.

in finland:

everybody: the fuck you doing?

Wisdom comes with age

girls: omg, perv !

This happened at work one day.
This one old lady one day was comming up from the stairs and I was going down. Because they were spiral shaped stairs, the other side is more narrow that the other. So I nicely went to the narrow side, while holding heavy boxes. Then the old lady stops, and I say: "Go ahead". And then she says.
"YOU MUST LET ME PASS, I MUST HOLD ON THE RAILING. MOVE ASSIDE!"

I was pretty confused.
So she went up to the office. And later when I came back, the old lady was yelling at this one woman who works in there.
Old lady: I WILL NOT PAY THE BILLS, I HAVE PAID THEM.
Woman: Ok, let's just print out the bills and watch what we can do.
Old lady: I WILL NOT WAIT HERE AND STAND, MY FEET ARE GETTING SORE.
Woman. Well you can sit down.
OL: NO, I WILL NOT SIT DOWN BCAUSE I HAVE PAID.
Woman: Well, lets just see what we can...
The old woman leaves in the middle of the confersation.
OL: I'll MAKE A POLICE REPORT IF YOU TRY TO BILL ME AGAIN.
MFW

Or when they just walk by, not saying anything as if you were fucking obligated to hold the door for them

Most teenage girls: "Whoa how do these doors work. They just keep opening randomly"

I opened a door for a woman once in college and she stopped walking and just glared at me, then she said "I'm not helpless, I can open doors myself!" It was at that moment I understood the phrase no good deed goes unpunished.
