you picked a provocative subject, I do think the pandemic made folks anonymous, and thereby rude folks became ruder and nasty, can't count the times I was told I was stupid to be wearing a mask, by a complete stranger. Some folks are rude and entitled, they can block the road to go to Farmers Mkt. cut in front of the line because they are special, you were lucky the person didn't know the right of way., I have seen people just blow through a stop sign. In my head I ask are they stupid or entitled then in my head I call them a name, since they share our planet your suggestions are good ones...because it is not going to change anytime soon

I have either blocked and deleted them, smirked and walked away or retorted in a way that made the person think, hard. The rudest of the rude have been summarily thrown out of my life-permanently. It took a long time for me to think enough of myself to not be a punching bag, but here I am.
