14. Maybe it's an age thing, but I have a real problem with people throwing things on the floor for others to pick up.

Maybe some fellow senior DU'ers can tell me if this is just a generational thing or what, but I absolutely HATE things on the floor. I don't put blankets, etc. on the floor because the floor is where you walk.

In the same vein, I consider it a very demeaning thing when someone throws something on the floor for someone else to have to bend down and pick up.

Am I surprised that Trump does this? Of course not. He's an entitled asshole slob. But I am not going to stop calling out bad behavior and give him a pass just because he is an entitled asshole slob.
