Etiquette - June 2006

One day my cousin (who lives next door) came over and when he saw all the movies that I have, he asked to borrow some, he said he hadn't had any TV for some time now and would like to borrow some movies for the weekend. I felt sorry for him, so I let him borrow some. This was a couple of months ago and he continues to come over every couple of days, gets about 10 or 12 movies and then disappears for 2 or 3 more days.
It doesn't bother me to let him borrow them but, everytime he comes over he asks for specific movies and then he expects me to go out and buy them so he can watch them, these are movies that I have absolutely no interest whatsoever in and have no intention of buying, I have told him so several times, that I wasn't going to purchase these movies. But he still persists, like he thinks if he aggravates me enough, I'll give in and buy them.
My question, what would be a good way to handle this situation that would NOT cause any trouble between myself and my neighbor.

a pizza delivery person usually takes the phone call, makes the pizza, tends the oven, gets it all correct and out the door in a timely manner, drives across town in all traffic and weather (which is why you order deliver, cuz you don't want to go out in these conditions)and to your door usually in 30 minutes, and you usually give them a buck or two?? how many wait-staff do you know who actually take care of your entire meal???

This is what I do. I put a teabag, milk and two sugars in a mug, pour boiling water in it, then stir it for a minute or two until it's the colour of my garden shed (which is reddy brown). Am I a heathen in the world of tea-making?

I mean, why isn't it easier? Both could want it, but because of lack of courage to ask for it, it may never happen.

My husband and I are going to a wedding for someone that works for him. We are driving two hours to get there. This person is very nice, but my husband doesn't socialize with this person outside of work. What is the proper amount to spend on a wedding gift? Thanks

I have an infant whose bedroom is on the side of the house next to these neighbors. The neighbors child is 12 yrs old and screams while in the pool. He wakes up my infant napping during the day. These neighbors are not the kind of people who would easily cooperate, therefore how do I tell them to have them quite their child without starting a war?

Curious, because it seems as thought it would be hypocritical for a smoker to complain about bad odors....

I work in a call center & take on average 50-60 technical calls per shift. From time to time get calls from Doctors (mostly males). How do I know this? Because they feel the need to let me know.

I always wanted to ask them why they felt it was necessary for me to know they are a doctor of whatever. Are they expecting extra consideration?
