Giving unwanted massages is rude:
As is publicly rubbing bald heads for sexual pleasure:
Eating with your mouth open:
Sitting with your legs far apart to demand admiration of your package:
Pretending to be a leader while playing dress-up:
Or maybe trying to run the press over while laughing:
Even invading a sovereign country is considered the height of rudeness and can cause international repercussions... so select your elected officials well or there could be difficulties.
