Guide for Politesse

[JohnRogers]

Anyone use politesse in their everyday vocabulary??? Know a rock lyric that uses it?

 

What I put before you is my cigar lounge's Guide to Politesse. These "rules" will be posted on signs around the lounge. Please critique or make suggestions.

 

: The Golden Rule abides, treat others as you would want to be treated.

 

: A gentleman knows how to handle his liquor. We serve gentlemen and ladies.

 

: We don't pour shots. There are no shot glasses. Our spirits are meant to be sipped and savored.

 

: East Village Lounge is a free speech zone but please keep your speech among your own immediate party. No one should have to listen to your vulgarity.

 

: No beverages or smoking in the humidor.

 

: If you bring in your own cigar please inform one of the staff, then consider buying one of ours or a beverage from the bar.

 

: East Village Lounge is a cigar lounge first, second and third. It is not a rowdy tavern.

I looked up synonyms for etiquette and thought "oh yeah use this". The word adds an aire of sophistication.

I approve. It seems appropriate.

Politesse is in Sympathy for the Devil, but maybe you knew that already! ;) (And I'm not implying that you are the devil for asking others to use their politesse . . :D ) your list sounds like the cigar lounge is a very pleasant place to be!

"So if you meet me

Have some courtesy

Have some sympathy, and some taste

(Woo woo)

Use all your well-learned politesse

Or I'll lay your soul to waste"

For 29+ years I've been singing "well learned politics". :(

Me too, until one of my kids had one of those social studies "look up the lyrics" assignments, to find out about the St. Petersburg part, etc. I never really knew the words before that. Hopefully neither of us is singing, "There's a bathroom on the right!" :)
