When I run the world

Take Turns and Play Nice

It is true that some things we really did learn in kindergarten, and again, I can't believe we'd need to have rules about such things, but I look around every day and see I'm mistaken.

If two lanes on a road are turning into one, we all get where we're going a lot faster if we just alternate. There shouldn't have to be a rule or a law, it just makes sense.

A single line where the first person goes to the next available cashier gets everyone through the line faster. If people have naturally organized themselves that way, don't be the jerk that goes and stands behind one person at the register and ruins the system.

And seriously, what are the odds that you're the only genius that sees the empty lane of traffic? Chances are you're the only one that doesn't see the obstruction half-way up the block and then you get annoyed when no one wants to let you over.

Again, we're trying to have a civilization over here.
