Repondez s'il vous plait.
He joined the festivities after all,
a direct text message, a bit stern, asking if he was coming
I had not received a response.
No need to respond - it was a group email
(three people is hardly a group message, I retorted in my head)
No need to RSVP if there is no specific request,
the other said, an older male.
I always respond, I retorted
If someone has thought of me, shall I not thank them
for thinking of me, even if I cannot attend.
It's not a generational thing, it's a matter of manners.
