I don't know. We live in a pretty rude world. I am always glad whenever someone is polite. And I do see the question as a way of trying not to impose.
Buffy: How was school today? Dawn: The usual. A big square building filled with boredom and despair.
Buffy: Just how I remember it.

Helicopter has been circling my neighborhood for 45 minutes. Wonder why? Should I turn the news on?

Yeah, as much every time the civility guy P.M. Forni start pontificating, I want to curse and be really rude (seriously, every time he comes on the radio, I can't restrain myself from saying "FUCK YOU FORNI! SHOVE IT You POMPOUS OLD WINDBAG!!!" It's quite funny) it does often smooth things.
And my little black heart gets evil satisfaction at maintaining that smoothness in the face of rudeness. Little black heart hopes my civility makes 'em feel small. Bless their hearts. And in the face of rudeness, kill 'em with kindness often does ratchet things down.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
tommy, I can't quite believe I'm getting into this, but is it supposed to be a replica of the cake from the episode where Picard had to deal with the kids?

Ha! Tommy, that's funny! Only the emblem (insignia?) on the shirt gives a hint of Star Trek!

I don't know (I don't remember that episode) - I found it here: Captain Picard Day
eta: btw, Captain Picard Day is tomorrow.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
In Leverage news (reported by Perkins in the Cable Drama thread), Chris Kane just got 17 stitches in his forehead (cut to the BONE) and then took them out himself early. I can't stop wincing. [link]

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Whereas I'm still bitching and moaning about my teef being taken out a week ago...
