Wicked lessons in urban culture
From cellphone etiquette to how to react when someone introduces a colleague to you as “my lover” (Step one: Do not spit out your drink), this one has it all.Rules of the road:
- No raking women with your eyes; glance quickly and respectfully.
- Offer to share a taxi rather than fight over it.
- Babies in strollers get right-of-way—until they abuse it.
- Still no ogling girls—c’mon!

- No bicycling on the sidewalk unless under the age of 6.
- Pedestrians can die of secondhand smoke, too.
