not a fuckin toddler, I can do it myself

The point isn't that you're somehow lesser than that person, it's less work overall for someone who's already opened a door to keep it open for the next person if they're close than it is for the next person to open it

Humans, being naturally social and helpful creatures (generally), will tend to do this subconsciously

and I dont need your bitchy attitude when i dont thank you for something i didnt want.

I legitimately have never heard of this happening. I can believe it did to you once, or that someone you knew did it a lot because they were a prick, but I doubt it's a regular problem at all.

these things ARE related dammit!
