We are in an rv park , 2 doors down there are nosy parkers, 2 couples always together, gossiping about anything and everything. Every move we make , they watch it all.Open the door in the morning , all eyes.Sit on our deck to enjoy a cup of coffee , same thing.Have friends over , same thing.This is a small park,,so what would be a good way to get them to mind their own business?I can`t tell them to go get stuffed, our son plays with one of their grand kids. I can`t put up a fence , it`s a trailer park.We don`t want to change sites because ours is a great spot. That said , any ideas??

One of my boyfriends friends girlfriend [that wasnt confusing, was it?] confessed to me that she has cyber sex at least once or twice a week.

Should my boyfriends friend consider that cheating?

Would you?

We've all had to deal with dumb parents who bring their crying pre-schoolers to the movies. Are they oblivious, idiots, or just plain inconsiderate? Where do people get the moxie to ruin the theater experience for an entire audience? I realize that parents want a night out, but hire a babysitter! If you can't, then wait for the DVD! So how do you handle it? Go up and ask them to leave? Get the manager, or just sit next to them and fart & burp a lot?

What would you do if you were a black person in a restaurant and you over heard your black server say 'I hate black people'? After you had a small complaint.

When travelling in India I like to look like the beautiful Indian ladies and wear Salwa Kamees, dupatta, anklets, toe rings etc. I am tall with dark hair so sometimes I am asked if I am from Mumbai. Do Indians find this strange or are you offended by us Aussies dressing in this way?

If a guy does something stupid or inappropriate-we call him an A$$hole.... but if it's a woman, we say she's a Bi-ch.
Why don't we call women an A$$holes if she does something stupid or inappropriate??

It's noisy, so you can be heard with effort, but it's slow and a hassle. You don't know her. You may or may not be on the dancefloor.

What are your moves?

I grew up in a small town of 2000 sure. I have a VERY faint accent. (b/c I have taken voice classes) I live in one of the largest cities in the USA. However, from time to time I hear "Wow you are so country". Or they are shocked when I say somethinng and I get "I thought you were country, I didnt know that about you".

You should also know I went to a top ranked University, I am a professional, and I am getting my MBA at another.

Just this week I had a friend over, we were hanging out, and she was going through my photo albums. She made this comment "OMG, You have so many friends of different ethnicities, did you date any of these Guys?" To which I replied "Yes" And she said "But I thought you were so country" I was shocked! I said," What? Do I look racist?"

Please, give me your definition of "country" b/c I dont think that of myself at all (I think I carry myself with a lot of sophistication). Have you ever called somone that? Should I be insulted when people say this?

Hi all, I'm writing a review and am basically making the point that I'm an unashamed admirer of America (I'll qualify that by explaining that I'm talking about the Apollo era). I know an American who appreciates we British is an Anglophile, but can anyone enlighten me to the opposite complimentary phrase?

Anyway no blows where thrown but we came awfull close.

I made a comment around the dinner table yesterday to some of my work colleagues and their spouses that created an awkward silence. I'm not American, and so after speaking to one of my friends, what i said was obviously misinterpreted.

After someone made a comment saying that the US would reinstitute the draft, i remarked jokingly "that would solve the mexican problem"

What i meant was that immigration would stop to a country with a draft, and i realized that the way it was recieved was that all the mexicans are going to die.

When i go into work on monday, should i explain my mistake to my colleagues, or should i forget about it? It obviously wasnt malicious, nor am I racist, i just dont want it to be awkward.

Thanks.
