These threads remind me of the title of an article written by probably the last statesman to sit in the US Senate--Daniel Patrick Moynihan.
The title was, "Defining Deviancy Down"--pretty much an overview of how cultural norms and standards of acceptable behavior have been devalued over the last 40-50 years.

We went to the spice place Saturday, I stayed in the car listening to the game. My wife said that a customer came back in and said that he'd bought the 7 buck teapot by mistake and had really wanted the 10 dollar one. Could he get the 10 dollar one for 7? They said no. He went into a tirade, had the little girl at the counter crying and the rest of the customers glaring at him. I told the wife that she should have come and got me. I woulda ruined his day and self esteem. I effin' hate bullies more than anything on this earth. There is something wrong in my gear box, God help me, bullies make me want to screw with them, and I'm good at it. "Let's go outside and I'll make you cry, too, you effin retahd...."
