I don't want to hold in all day, and the bathroom is one floor below. If I close my office door and let it rip, then my office will stink, and everybody will think i'm gross when they come by for a visit. Help. What is the polite thing to do in my situation?

I have noticed a few people have blocked me.

Most of them I can work out the reasoning behind, others I cannot quite so easily.

Jack P is something of an enigma for example.

Im a christian and this what i've always noticed.Some Christians have labeled atheists as evil, stupid, devil-worshippers, or morally void. Though there may be some atheists who fit these categories (as would many in the general population), atheists are not categorically evil, stupid, devil-worshipping degenerates with no morals. Many of them are fine citizens, honest, caring, loving, and patient. For a Christian, or anyone for that matter, to make a blanket statement about atheists in a derogatory manner is wrong. It is the same thing atheists sometimes do when they accuse Christians of being irrational, psychotic, or stupid. Such accusations have no place on either side of the argument of truth.But will these labels ever disappear?

And ye shall eat the flesh of your sons, and the flesh of your daughters shall ye eat” (Leviticus 26:29). “And thou shalt eat the fruit of thine own body, the flesh of thy sons and of thy daughters” (Deuteronomy 28:53). “And toward her young one that cometh out from between her feet, and toward her children which she shall bear: for she shall eat them” (Deuteronomy 28:57). “And I will cause them to eat the flesh of their sons and the flesh of their daughters, and they shall eat every one the flesh of his friend” (Jeremiah 19:9). I knew they were in a strange cult with all the blood offerings and their god needing the blood of a human(jesus) to make everything okay......but this is going to far! How can they believe in such a sick god

I am an African American who could pass to be Arab. I have been told by middle eastern people that I look like them( mostly saudi arabian) my american friends tell me that it won't be safe for me to go to Israel because I look Arab, and most likely I will have trouble getting OUT of the country,but I will be fine fetting in. If anyone could help me with this issue it would be greatly appreciated.

We put our house on the market, moved out of state, and husband found a job 3 months ago and he just got laid off. Now we thought we still have the house, it had not sold yet, we agreed to pray and ask God to give us another chance in that house we own, to move back there, and he got his old job back, so our lives are gonna be restored! We are thrilled. God must want us to go back. Our house didnt sell, he got his job back, etc, and God provided the funds for us to move back. We were so lost in Arizona nothing was working out. God is good isnt he?

Why are it that our own women, despite so-called friendships, allies, exhibit no real respect towards other women, much less our own males in this country?

to indicate boyfriend/girlfriend/lover

If someone says to me " meet my partner" I always enquire , "What line of business are you in?"

Partner is surely for people in business/ sport's or stage duos, or Cowboys


Can't people come up with a better word like "Companion"

Admit it...at some point in your life you've made a racist statement, even if you "didn't mean to" you still said it and that means somewhere deep down you're somewhat racist...

So why is it that, even though you've made racist comments, you still judge people who publically make racist remarks like Kramer(although way over board) or Mel Gibson....

And not just racism, but sexist remarks, rude comments about gays or other people because of the religion the follow I know you've said SOMETHING that is wrong...do you chastise yourself when it "slips"?
