If you're reading this post, then you're conscious of the Art of Sprezzatura.
But while you're out there developing your aura and fine tuning your sophistication, surely you've witnessed some peers that just don't 'get it'.
Well today, we take action.
Someone recently suggested that we should break down the codes of conduct. Think of the rulebook in Wedding Crashers.
We'll keep a running list and work together to make it as thorough as possible. Send your suggestions to sprezzcentral@gmail.com ( feedback@sprezzcentral.com is experiencing technical difficulties).
Here are a quick 3 from Pilar (Editor in Chief) and I:
1. When you're out with friends DO NOT pick up your blackberry and start sorting through e-mails. It's rude to your guests and annoying as hell. Stay present!
2. If you're part of a couple and out with a single friend, MINIMIZE the PDA (public displays of affection). You have NO idea how awkward it can be for the other party. Make sure that they are comfortable so that EVERYONE has fun.
3. Don't be the "One-upper". If I just told you a story about an accomplishment, just acknowledge it and be happy for me. I REALLY don't care about your 'superior' story. It actually pisses me off that you can't enjoy my moment with me!
Keep these in mind over the weekend and send over your own suggestions!
... Stay sprezzin'
