Meaning
Rude, disrespectful, or badly out of line — behaving in a way that oversteps decent bounds. To be 'out of order' is to be forward, insolent, or to do something improper: cursing an elder, butting into private business, or acting with no manners. It is a strong charge of bad conduct, close to 'facety' and 'rude', and to tell someone 'yuh out of order' is to accuse them plainly of crossing the line.
