RANDOM PERSON: AXS says you hold the power to issue refunds, yet, we are well beyond the 30 day frame as promised. When will we be getting the refund? Or do we need to cancel y'all too?

ME: Erm, I'm a publicist. I'm not a refund guy. Where is the AXS article you saw my name on and what show are you talking about? Please let me know so I can fix that listing. Thanks!

RP: Found you at the bottom of the main website. Just hitting all bases since AXS wont help us. And you just sound like a snotty shit yourself.

M: Hi there. I kinda have no idea what show you're talking about and I’m trying to help you. So, fill me in, ok?

RP: So very fucking professional of you. Mind you have ZERO idea who you're speaking to. This has been noted.

M: Oh? Please enlighten me.

RP: Correct, Rey. I've been a part of the artist relations and hospitality industry probably longer than you've been alive.

M: Well, then. You should realize that a publicist does not handle refunds. Or perhaps they didn't teach you that in your curriculum? And RE: your fifth attempt at an insult, if that is the case, you are probably pretty damn old because I'm not some spring chicken. If you are honest that have been doing "artist relations and hospitality probably longer than [I've] been alive,' you should have known that calling a peer a "snotty shit" in your reply isn't exactly a prime example of "artist relations and hospitality." Perhaps a refresher course is needed. So, move along and reach out to someone who handles refunds because, as you SHOULD know since you are such a model professional (especially in your language skills... eek! That needs a LOT of work), a publicist does not engage in refunds.

RP: I apologize. I thought you were an intern. Can you help me get a refund please?

M: Whether or not I'm an intern should not determine how you treat people. Now, go wash out that mouth before you kiss your mother and, while you're at it, tell her to break out The Amy Vanderbilt Complete Book of Etiquette for you because you, my child, need to learn it... and QUICK! THEN and only THEN when you're all prim, proper and professional, you can come back to me with your question. K? Besides, you never told me what band you were referring to when you acted like a petulant child. That would help.

Do you have any good book recommendations for proper etiquette and basic skill learning for women? I'd prefer an older book but any book would be amazing.

hi! here are a few from my to-read list that might be helpful! (i haven’t read these yet, but i’ve read good things about them)

hey doc, i keep thinking about your gravity falls etiquette tangents, and it's got me inspired to finally dig into that stuff! are there any books you'd recommend? i'm assuming emily post stuff is a given, but anything that might not be as household-name-ish?

Yes! I own the oldest copy of Emily Post’s etiquette possible, but other great old classic etiquette books:

The Gentleman’s Book of Etiquette and Manual of Politeness 1860: https://www.gutenberg.org/files/39293/39293-h/39293-h.htm

Amy Vanderbilt’s Complete Book Etiquette, a Guide to Gracious Living, 1957 https://www.archive.org/stream/amyvanderbiltsco00vandrich/amyvanderbiltsco00vandrich_djvu.txt

Debrett’s Etiquette and Peerage is EXCELLENT if you want stodgy British/Continental shit, as I often do. Like Emily Post, it’s still published so it’s hard to find online texts. I cruise ebay and thriftbooks llooking for old editions.

Read an etiquette book

Catherine Garcia, The Week, July 11, 2018

Dressed in your finest ballgown or tux, you sit down at an elaborately set table, an array of utensils spread out in front of you.

You take a seat, and a waiter soon appears, placing a plate in front of you for the salad course. Quick, which fork do you use?

A: The small salad fork to the left of the fish fork and dinner fork. This is because the salad is being served before the entrée; otherwise, the salad fork would be placed to the right of the dinner fork, next to the plate. Duh!

B: The fork that’s closest to my hand and easiest to grab.

C: Um (looks at the person to the left), the smaller fork?

D: I’m good, my fingers will work just fine.

Etiquette books say that the correct answer is A, although you won’t be shunned from society if you went with B or C. It’s true that most people won’t find themselves at a formal dinner on the average Tuesday, but etiquette is not just about knowing which fork to use. Etiquette makes you a nicer person, and we could use more nice people.

When I was a child visiting my grandmother’s house, one of my favorite books to read was Letitia Baldrige’s update of Amy Vanderbilt’s Complete Book of Etiquette. I am fully aware of how weird that sounds, but etiquette books are fascinating. You learn about the proper way to behave if you are ever invited to dinner at the White House, and how to have a polite conversation with new acquaintances that doesn’t automatically descend into awkwardness.

Baldrige described the difference between etiquette and manners being as such: Etiquette is protocol, while manners are “an expression from the heart on how to treat others whether you care about them or not.” Presumably, we all follow the firm rules of etiquette, but manners are ours alone, and it really doesn’t matter if you poured your red wine into the proper glass if just moments earlier you berated someone for accidentally knocking into your chair.

I think everyone should read an etiquette book, even those who are quick to say “please” and “thank you.” Etiquette may have a bad rap as being stuffy or old-fashioned, and yes, some of it is (think receiving lines). Sure, you probably won’t need to know how your domestic staff should address you (I did wince at that section), but etiquette books cover so much more than that. What’s so bad about sending thank-you notes and knowing how to give a toast? We learn the basics when we’re young, but it kind of stops there. It shouldn’t--your manners should get better the older you get and the more you interact with others.

Just looking through the table of contents of Baldrige’s New Manners for New Times, she goes over so much--how to tip literally every person you might ever encounter in your life, announcing your engagement, preparing a guest room, telephone manners, how to send your condolences ... the list goes on.

It’s easy to be thoughtful, and being mindful of others isn’t hard, either. Etiquette is ever-changing. As the world evolves, so too do our manners, and Emily Post would probably have a hard time wrapping her head around the polite way to end a disagreement on Facebook or how to best respond to a message on LinkedIn.

You can’t just read about etiquette; you must practice it. Make it fun! Go out to a fancy restaurant and use the right utensils, and buy some cute cards so you can jot a quick note thanking your neighbor for that bag of avocados he left on your porch. When you answer the phone, even if it’s to find a telemarketer harassing you for the billionth time, be kind as you firmly tell them to stop calling your home, thank you very much.

How you interact with others is like your calling card. Do you really want to be the guy that doesn’t hold the door open, whose rudeness is the talk of the office? Or, would you rather be known as the considerate guy who never arrives at a party empty-handed, and is quick to reassure a waiter when he accidentally drops his dish on the floor? Knowing that you are treating people the right way boosts your confidence, and makes you someone others want to be around.

Showing compassion--to friends, family, complete strangers--is one of the most important things we can do for one another. Think of all the people you encounter in a day, and how terrible it would be if no one ever looked you in the eye when they asked you a question, or said “thank you” after you handed them your change. Let’s make sure we all do our part by minding our manners and extending grace--even to a person who uses their soup spoon while eating dessert.

Hey everyone, I found this full book of etiquette which was published in the 50′s.  It has a lot of relevant information (dress, manners, how to graciously host or attend a dinner party, the role of a butler, and quite a bit more).  I’m going to be writing some more condensed and specific posts pulling from the information here in the weeks ahead, but figured I’d show you all the link in case you want to do some more detailed research.

Here we go! We’ve said “so long” to our last summer holiday and now the Autumn kitchen awaits! Today, we are officially racing towards Fall with a pumpkin colored cookbook and a little kitchen story about an etiquette guru and an artist. The etiquette guru is beloved 20th century authority Amy Vanderbilt and the artist is revered pop culture icon Andy Warhol. 🖼 Not many people know that before Andy became famous, he went by the more formal name Andrew and was a freelance illustrator for hire.🍴In 1961, he teamed up with Amy to produce her first cookbook following the wildly successful 1952 launch of her Complete Book of Etiquette (also illustrated by Andy). 🍳 Amy at that point in her career was a consummate home-entertainer, a world traveler, a wife and a mom. Andy was a thirty something artist working to pay his bills and develop his own unique style. Amy loved cooking but also understood that it could be a daunting, boring and tedious task. 🎨 Andy loved art but also knew that there was a fine balance between working to live and living to work. It took Amy 9 years to write this cookbook. It took Andy 30 years and one serious illness to develop his style. 📖 At the time of this book’s publication, Amy was already a beloved success and a national treasure. Andy was just one year away from producing his famous attention grabber - the Campbell’s Soup Cans. With this cookbook project, Amy wanted to inspire with recipes that removed the daunting, boring and tedious connotations that came with preparing meals every day, every week, every year. 🖌 Andy wanted to illustrate all the important details of the kitchen... how to cook, how to eat, how to cut a steak, frost a cake, set a table. Both were into delighting the minds and spirits of cooks at home. Together, A+A took readers on a spin around the world and the drawing board, culinary style, and made a fun 811 page cookbook packed full of adventurous ideas and whimsical storytelling. That’s what happens when an artist and an etiquette guru get together. They create a little magic, 1960s style. Find this book in the shop! . . . . . #andywarhol #amyvanderbilt #1960skitchen #1960sart #popculture #vintagecookbook https://www.instagram.com/p/CE4pvvdAtiF/?igshid=mu46ykev1lai

Class Rings Anyone

On the top is a Men’s (A11) Class ring in 10K Yellow Gold starting: $755.00 and on the bottom is Men’s (A11) Class ring in White Lustrium silver-toned metal starting: $292.00

Class ring

A class ring (also known as a graduation, graduate, senior, or grad ring) is a ring worn by students and alumni to commemorate their graduation, generally for a high school, college, or university.

"There's not as many class rings that are sold today as there were 30 years ago," confirms Ann Carr, the chief marketing officer at Jostens, one of a few companies that dominate the U.S. academic memento market. The Minneapolis-based company now also sells things like yearbooks, letterman jackets and professional sports and military insignia, but became a pioneer in the class rings business in 1906, shortly after launching in 1897.

The tradition of class rings originated with the class of 1835 at the United States Military Academy at West Point, New York, making it an historically American tradition. At the time, students only had one class ring option for their graduating year.

Today class rings can be customized, from the material and style that the ring is made of to the color and cut of the gem in the center. There is a wide selection of emblems, pictures, and words that can be added to the sides of the rings and even inside the center gem.

Ultimately, what Jostens and its competitors have to market (and hope never dies out) is the emotional significance of class rings, and that's been an easier sell in the parts of the country you'd probably guess. "The traditional ring itself, it's so powerful down in some parts of the country," says Carr, referring to the American South, "where the tradition is so strong they have ring ceremonies."

As in years past, graduates frequently wear their rings on the left hand in observance of the ancient belief, which also underlay the Anglo-American custom of wearing wedding bands on the left hand, that a vein connects the left ring finger to the heart.

The Complete Book of Etiquette by Amy Vanderbilt indicates the following protocol for wearing of a class ring. For as long as the wearer is in school, the insignia should face the wearer to remind him/her of the goal of graduation. Upon graduation, the class ring gains the status of a "badge of honor" similar to a diploma, with the effect that graduation entitles the wearer to display the insignia facing outward so that it faces other viewers. An additional justification for this practice is the rationale that the ring also symbolizes the graduate him/herself: During the wearer's time in school, he or she focuses on self-development and goals specific to the insular academic environment; upon graduation, the wearer enters the wider world and puts what he or she has learned to work in shaping it.
