Does it piss off anyone else when someone kind of holds open a door for you? You know like they hold the door open kind of so that you don't have open the door kind of... That really doesn't make sense to me.

Like when they see you coming and give the door a final shove before going inside, so that it closes right when you get there anyway?

Yeah, that's what I get.   :x

I'd hold the door open for ya, for a fee.

Seems like I have to pay people to have basic human decency toward me anyway.  Thanks, but I'll open my own door.

A couple of days ago I held the door open for some guy and he just kind of looked at me.  I don't know why I did it, he was just...there, and I was in a good mood.

I will hold the door for women, because I'm old and I was raised that way. I'll also hold it for elderly men, and for someone in a wheelchair or walker.

I didn't.  I held the door open for the guy because he was in front of me, but I walk fast.
