- Your post, included comments, or your title/comment should include some kind of commentary or remark on the subject of the screen capture. Your title must include at least one word relevant to your post.
- You are encouraged to provide a link back to the source of your screen capture in the body of your post.
- Current politics and news are allowed, but discouraged. There MUST be some kind of human commentary/reaction included (either by the original poster or you). Just news articles or headlines will be deleted.
- Doctored posts/images and AI are allowed, but discouraged. You MUST indicate this in your post (even if you didn't originally know). If an image is found to be fabricated or edited in any way and it is not properly labeled, it will be deleted.

Honestly I wouldn't myself have done that to someone else, but depending on how the request was asked would depend if it was actually rude or not.
Just because it's in quotes doesn't mean that's how it happened.
Here's an example:
"it's a quote so that's probably exactly how bitchy she was".
That's an assumption, we don't know that.
Usually when someone's telling a story they want to put themselves in the best of light, especially if they are criticizing someone else in the story.
Literally asking any stranger to finish their food sooner so you can take their seat is unacceptable.
It just reeks of entitlement where you're more important than them. They shouldn't have to eat any differently because you want to have their seat.
I can tell this was asked by a woman whose dad gave her everything she wanted.
