I was invited to have dinner with Tarja Halonen, the president of Finland.
I'm really worried about my table manners. I'm a penguin so I usually don't use a fork or a spoon, I just pick things off my plate with my beak.
Will that be OK to do in front of the President of Finland or will she be offended?

What's the best way to introduce yourself to strangers in a public place? I'm talking mainly about coffee shops. If a group of people are talking about something you have an interest in, is it rude to jump in? What about introducing yourself to someone who's alone? Is that more rude than bothering strangers, or is it better? (Is it better to interrupt someone's solitude or a group of people enjoying each other's company?)

I went to a nice restaurant today and the hostess and one waiter was very rude. She did not greet me, did not give me a menu (she just pointed at a table and did not walk me there). I had to walk to the table myself and she didn't give me a menu. Customers that came in AFTER me, she walked them to the table and gave them a menu and they came in. I had to walk up from my table to the front and ask for a menu after waiting 5 minutes. I finally complained to the manager. I have ears and I could hear the waiter (The waiter was not my waiter but guy standing next to the hostess) talk about me and how I complained to the manager. Mind you this is a hispanic restaurant and everyone working there is hispanic and I am asian.
I complained before I got my order, does this mean they spit in my food? someone else served it to me from the kitchen and maybe I am paranoid. The food looked fine but I was just wondering if they retaliated.

I can't believe the rudeness of people who feel it is there duty to indirectly making fun of the tallness of your child. Afterall they can't help it. They boost how tall there child is. Some people say guess they are 2 years younger than they are. Right to their face to make them feel bad.

I would love a good come back. One person is my sister in law so it needs to be tactful.

I'd love to say something like, at least my son has personality, but I can't say something that obviously mean.

So heres the deal. Most of my friends I have been friends with for about 12 years or so and really close. Well my best friend in the whole world about 3 years ago was dating another friend of ours. It was wrong at the time because they were both cheating on thier spouses. They had sex a bunch of times and then ended it. Well I just found out last week that this friend of ours that my best friend had sex with had discovered right after they ended thier relationship that they were HIV positive, and never told my best friend this. I want and need to tell her to get tested but she has a very big mouth at times and I dont want her telling everyone that we know that our mutual friend has HIV if it turns out that she is negative. So how do I go about telling her. I am very very scared for her.

The people on here are so mean. I asked why no good looking guys ask me out and a couple people said I'm ugly. But I know I'm not ugly because the guys at my job always say "Hi, beautiful!" and "Morning, sexy!" to me and then they laugh really hard about it. I just wish they would ask me out once. Why do people think they have to be mean to other people when they ask a question? they also think that im lying or something..Im sorry for being totally honest..next time i will put up a "pretty pic" that is not really me maybe a guy with hot abs or something..then i will ask something like "im 19 and my peniss is 12 inches is that normal" is that what you people want?

not out in the open, like in an alley or behind a bush because you HAD NO OTHER CHOICE.

Do you say Please and Thank You and May I, are you courteous to other people including other drivers? Do you like it when other people are polite to you, or is it a waste of time?

"Where's our food? We've been waiting 45 minutes! If we don't get it soon, we'll leave!" (This is what my dad said)

I saw a sign that said " OPEN HOUSE DRINKS AND SNACKS "

So I got my husband Argus, Friend Donna Jeane, Shirley, Anna, Wilbur smith, Aggy and her 5 children, steve, Hank and his wife and kids and we went down to get free snacks and drinks at this open house. It was in a rich neighborhood.

Well, We went in and grabbed plates and starting eating all the great snacks and drank all the Hi C Lemonade and everyone was staring at us there. WHY IS THERE FREE SNACKS AND DRINKS IF WE CANT HAVE THEM?

Argus had to leave and 5 minutes later the Realtor kicked me and all my friends and their children out and when I said no that I wont leave till we eat more, the lady realtor grabbed my hair and pulled me out and called me a piece of crap horse lady.
She then startd to spit all over my face and kicking me. One of the men there unzipped his pants and peed all over me and other people just laughing. The cops even stood in the crows and did nothing. They just watched and laughed
