How To Be a Gentleman


  • Suggest to split a cab once we realize there's no way a train's passing at this hour.
  • Ask if I'm not cold when we get up to the street.
  • Hail the cab. Open the door for me.
  • Turn off the cab's TV monitor the minute we get in.
  • Let me prattle on, and when I stop, ask a follow-up question.
  • Have the cab stop at my place while you walk the last two blocks to yours.
  • Dismiss my protest and cover the cab fare. Open the door for me.
  • Don't ask for my name or number; do wish me a happy new year's.
