DEAR ABBY: Is there a rule of etiquette for changing seats in a bar setting? I enjoy going out to eat occasionally and, when I do, I like to sit at the bar and eat while having a drink. It seems lately, more often than not, I'm asked to move down a seat or two to accommodate another two or three people. Depending on my mood, I may or may not do it. Since this happens to me quite frequently, I am declining more and more often. Either way, I think it's rude to ask a stranger to move just so the other party can have enough seats. By the way, I have moved out of courtesy if I am not eating, but to ask me to move while I'm eating is unacceptable. Your thoughts? -- IN PLACE IN KENTUCKY
DEAR IN PLACE IN KENTUCKY: Bar seating is always a first come first serve situation, and if there are seating issues the bartender will bring them to your attention. However, you sound like an obstinate prick and a cry-baby, obviously without any friends who likes taking your loser-ness out on couples and groups wanting to sit next to each other. I wonder how many friendly groups of people you offended between the time you wrote this doucheknob letter and today!
Good Luck and Keep in Touch! Dear Mike Cares is also on Snapchat, Twitter, Instagram and Facebook (whatever they are.) Email me your stupid questions at DearMikeCares@gmail.com
