In an age where civility and charm are often left by the wayside, Miss Manners reminds us that etiquette and grace never go out of style. |
 |
Judith Martin, better known as Miss Manners, is considered the ultimate authority on etiquette and the modern-day Emily Post. Known for her practical advice and dry wit, Miss Manners is an advocate for politeness, modesty and thank-you notes.
Miss Manners provides examples of the following tropes:
- Brutal Honesty
- Cool Old Lady
- Deadpan Snarker
- Fee Fi Faux Pas: Her goal is not to prevent these, but to teach people how to handle them with grace.
