Miss Manners suggests you continue to feign gratitude for unwanted gifts to avoid rudeness. Despite being creeped out by items like gnomes, expressing thanks, even if insincerely, is proper etiquette.
Hide the remote next time when guests disregard house rules, like changing the TV channel at an event you are hosting. Avoid creating a scene by discreetly managing situations with tact and grace.
In situations where the gender of a person is unknown, address them respectfully without assuming gender. Avoid potentially misgendering someone by finding alternative ways to politely grab their attention.
