If I may, I would suggest that your brother try to participate in some posting in the forums. Maybe put himself out there a bit more readily & openly...?
I never thought of it as being an insult, actually. If the clerk has his/her hand out, I'll put the money there. Otherwise it goes on the counter, no insults intended.
When I'm all alone... I behave however I feel like behaving. I always have good table manners, as a rule. Sometimes I do stay in my jammies, but I've been known to answer my door still in my jammies - and even after I invite my company inside, I'll probably stay in my PJ's.9 times out of 10, I know who the people or person is coming to visit - and they know me, so it doesn't faze them to see me in my PJ's.
I'm a pretty predictable person, home alone, or not...
Wait. That came out wrong - it depends on what it IS that I'm specifically doing. I suppose a better way to put it is: I don't keep kicking a dead horse (so to speak) over & over, expecting it to get back up again...
What comes around, goes around. Karma. Here's my mind-set regarding this thing called "Karma" - do good things, and hope for good things to happen. Or... do good things with no thoughts or expectations of a return. Treat others as you, yourself, would want to be treated. Maybe I am a weirdo - wait, scratch the "maybe" - but I certainly do not keep doing the same thing over and over again, all the while trying to achieve a different or better result. I try to learn from the mistakes I've made, see if there can possibly be a remedy -a change for the better, improvement, etc.
I really have a billion other things I could say/post to this particular topic. I'll not, though.
Alrighty. I've just prepared and I'm about to sink my teeth in to some lovely scrambled feta eggs cooked with asparagus, fresh ground pepper, and sprinkled with a few crushed red pepper flakes - along with a wonderful slice of toasted Greek bread...
