DEAR MISS MANNERS: I recently encountered a very rude line-jumper. I said nothing to her, but wish I had, and I wonder whether Miss Manners can suggest a polite statement for some similar future occurrence.
I was about to tell her that she could go ahead of me, but then she simply did -- without bothering to ask. Then she departed without apologizing to me or thanking me. But a few minutes later, she and I were outside for about 10 minutes, I on a bench and she in her car about 15 feet away. Her windows were open, so she could see me, but she still said nothing to me -- no apology, no thank-you. She did strike up a conversation with two strangers, complimenting their motorcycle and their garb, offering them blessings, reiterating that the blessings were sincere, saying that she wanted a similar bike when she was older, blah blah blah.
