On Courtesy

People are taking this holding the door open thing too far. Somebody's 30 feet ahead of me, they walk through the door, and they hold it open and just stare back at me with a stupid smile. I've got alot of ground to cover to reach the door. Meanwhile, my door-holder-opener awaits. What does he want me to do, run? What's so courteous about that? Screw it, I'm staying at my pace. Make the mofo wait.

Here's a rule: Don't hold a door open for someone unless they are within 10 feet or two strides of you. Got it? Good.
