I love the smell of my own farts. Sometimes I fart in my hand and take a big sniff. Should I offer to share the stench with others around me?

I really like my job, but i can't stand the people I have to work with. They are really childish and love to talk behind your back. Then when you are around them they are as nice as they can be. Also, when someone talks badly behind someones back, anyone that hears what that person has said about you, they make a bee-line straight to you and tell you what they heard. I have tried to talk to my boss about this but he just blows it off and I don't know what to do. Help me please!

When my sister decided to get married she, of course, sent out invitations to everyone. Well.....the invitations were really nice, but on the right hand side of the invitation at the bottom was a sticker that said "In liu of gifts we would like money for the honey moon". Do you think this was totally tacky of her?

I'm holding back from telling a shocking traumatic lie in response to a question I was just emailed from a guy I've worked with... The question was so personal and overstepping boundaries, it seriously offended me.
How do you respond? I'm really tempted to make up something traumatic so that next time he wants to ask an intrusive question he'll think twice!!!

My mother decorates eggs via Ukrainian egg decorating technique (real eggs with wax, dye, etc.; it's a complex art). She is very good at it, and she gave me some as a gift several years ago. I brought them with me to wherever I go, but I broke my favorite one today...

I was running to answer the door, and I tripped on a rug, but I didn't fall then. Instead, I stumbled into the counter, stumbled backwards into the table, got my foot caught around a chair leg somehow, and tripped on that. On my way down, I grabbed the cloth decoration which is under the decorated eggs. Then one of the eggs fell off of the table--my favorite one.

Should I tell my mum there was a hurricane here or should I tell her the truth the next time she calls me? I accept and am not ashamed of my clumsiness, but I think my mum is.

I was also already punished for it...the delivery man at the door asked what was going on because the egg smelled when it was broke. I lied and told him I was cooking.

Okay, ever since elementary school I've been bullied like crazy because I was always the kid into music instead of sports. I tried to compromise with them to stop the abuse, but they just laughed me right out of tryouts and made me miserable for years. This carried on through middle school, and now in High School it's paying off and I'm getting calls from all over the state to sing and perform at people's private events and I'm singing in musicals and plays in the big city and concert halls. Now they're trying to act like my best friends, and it doesn't feel right. Any advice?

mine:

"don't get your panties in a bunch"

the people who would actually utter that phrase are people who I don't want even thinking about the fact that I am wearing panties... makes my skin crawl!

And why do you do it? I can honestly say I NEVER litter. I am so good about it, and set such a consistent example, that my daughter actually picks up litter she finds and throws it away. I will hold onto whatever trash I have until I find a garbage can, and I teach my kids the same, so why can't other people? And laziness is not a good enough reason; we need to all work together to keep the earth clean. So do you litter? And if so, why do you think you have the right?

I've just got a new chair with wheels...and I am very excited about it!

I haven't danced with it yet, but I am very tempted to; I just worry that someone might catch me doing this, and then I wouldn't know how to explain myself...or is an explanation even needed--should I sit down on the chair, ask them to hold onto my legs and spin in circles for an even better time?

In the past year and a half I gained 22 pounds. I love my new fat, the bounce of it when I walk, the comfy roll of it when I sit. But how do I expalin it to my friends who haven't seen me. Should I bring it right up, or should I wait for them to say, "You've gained weight!" and then I can tell them, "I LOVE my new fat!"

They really deserve the Grandparents of the year award. They were watching my 2 year old today. After he was down for a nap, he called for them about 20 minutes later. When they went into the room, they were overcome by the smell of poop. They found him covered in poop. He had smeared it all over the crib. He smeared it into the blanket, sheet, stuffed animals and flung it across the room. They cleaned him up and his surroundings and handled it without yelling, spanking or laughing. They deserve something special. Any ideas?

I get really stressed when I drive. In my driver's ed. classes AND during my driver's test, I was always taught to get up to speed right away when the light turns green, to go no less than 5 mph under the speed limit, and to not linger in the left lane. I've always been taught to be a very assertive driver. So, I recently moved down to Kentucky where he people are extremely passive drivers and they lag in the left lane, and cut people off like it's going out of style. It drives me up a wall and I will probably lose hair over how stressed it makes me. Any advice?
