I'm pointing out what is acceptable to me or you isn't what is always considered acceptable to others. Berating (posters word) someone is trying to force your view on them. This wasn't a simple request to remove them that could just be ignored.

Personally I have no expectation that the table surface would not be germy so I would not eat food that touched it directly. Same with restaurant tables. But why would anything touch it when plates and napkins are available? You can always spread out a free newspaper as a placemat if you are phobic about it.

Would you be offended if that guy decided to sit naked in that chair? What if he used his bare hands to handle the buffet food instead of the tongs? What if he sneezed in a crowded elevator and didn't cover his mouth? You see where I'm going? It's okay for a civilized society to have some standards and expectations of basic decorum on an individual. Sadly, as a society, many people have forgotten their public manners and treat all public places as extensions of their living rooms.

If more of us spoke up about this kind of behaviour - not in a blaming way, of course, just a nice instruction to a poor hillbilly - there would be fewer examples of boorish behaviour. Idiots push society as far as they can, and if nobody stops them, they just push some more.

Last week I was on a flight to NRT with a couple doing that in bulkhead. The Tokyo-based crew must have been aghast. Beyond me why anyone thinks that is okay.

Was at a Doctor's office yesterday with my wife for her appointment. We arrive 30 minutes before her appointment time. The receptionist is handling the only other patient in the waiting area. A few minutes later, a mother/daughter arrive for the mother's appointment and she was already 30 minutes late for her appointment. The receptionist asks my wife if she would mind letting her check in these other people first. Being the nice person she is, my wife lets her do it. Meanwhile the daughter is speaking loudly on her phone to someone, then decides to play videos/snap chats/whatever very loudly and is loudly laughing at them. Her mother, after checking in, then starts an app on the phone like she is learning English. In the middle of all this a few more people come inside and have loud phone conversations on their cells. Luckily, my wife gets called in before the late person and I am able to go outside to get some peace and quiet.

apart from being forced to spend a brief period of time in a public space with some people whose first language mightn't be English.

Yes. As I pointed out I agreed with the poster on it being acceptable. As for being naked that's against the law. The handling of food likewise would be a health violation. Yours and mine public manners expectations are just that, yours and mine. A simple hey that's not the norm here is fine. Berating someone isn't. It crosseseems a line IMO, when it goes from suggestion to trying to force the change. In Turkey I frequently see people in airport with no socks/shoes lounging around with feet up and walking through airport. I find it disgusting, but that's my social norm, not there's.
