Etiquette - September 2006

For example, Wallace from Wallace & Gromit says, "Cheese and crackers!" I say "Cheese fries!" in place of the "S" or "F" words if I'm in a situation I can't let the real words fly.... My cousin uses foreign substitutes. And the tourettes syndrome guy (have you seen his videos?) seems fond of saying "Bob Saget!" LOL

My husband and I came home from dining out one night, and my neighbor lady - who I get along with, drink at her house on the weekends, play cards with - asked to "see" my leftovers, and upon doing so stuck her fingers in my noodles, pulled one out and ate it!

What would you have done?

Does sex and becoming parents make people evil or good.
I heard having children is selfish.
I heard in horror movies the virgin never dies.

I know i can always leave a tip if i want to (and this is not the answer i'm looking for), but there are certain times where you are "supposed to" do it.

For example, when i went to the car wash for the first time, i didn't give any tip at the end. Later, i found out i was supposed to give him. I really didn't know about it and felt sorry.

So my question is how do you know if you are supposed to give a tip at certain places (for certain services)? Could you list some of the services if possible?

By the way, am i supposed to give a tip after the oil change too? I don't think so.

When I'm walking down the street, I'm constantly having to move over to pass people because I get the feeling that if I didn't move over, they would walk right into me! Even when I have to literally stop and smoosh myself against the wall to let people past, they don't say thankyou! Has anyone else got this problem!? Rude people are starting to piss me off!

So there is a stalker-like broad that scans my profile, follows the questions that I have answered and reports everyone if she doesnt like what they have asked! It's like EDNA but starts with an A!!!! Annoying, irritating but most of all, she is trying to take the fun away! How can I hide where I have been so she can't report the askers?

I heard that the big charities are absolutely loaded and only half a penny out of every pound is being used. And when you think about all the money they spend on advertising, and how much the managers and that are being paid, is any money actually being used for what it's meant to?

My husband's ex manager(he quit after being confronted) forked girls in the breasts and threatened their jobs,but my husband and his co-worker,who was flicked in the privates and pushed and shoved and had coins thrown in his face along with years of daily putdowns and harrassment has less of a case- and no! He couldn't go to the good ol'boy network at HR as the others who did got fired and laid off and NEVER worked in the industry again----any court rulings for this?Oh, forgot the 3 guns and 300 rounds of hollow points the guy brought to work-where no one seems concerned about the relative DANGER the guy could be---

I think we should have showers for the recently divorced (or dumped) They surely need some new kitchen tools or fluffy towels. How about a six-pack and some cheetos to go with the porn? (naturally,these would be for the males as the females get most everything of worth in our country.

You get all your answers during the first ten minutes or so and then usually nothing. So is it alright if I repeat my question a few times looking for some more responses? Or do you think that's annoying and rude?

I think the reason people post questions here is because they wish to gather an assortment of opinions based upon personal experience. Or they are having difficulty finding a particular bit of information on the web
I find it unhelpful in the extreme to read answers that are prefaced with "This is just a guess...." or "It might be...." etc
So what prompts people to answer questions about which they have no knowledge?

I'm very courteous and have great manners. I'm not too proud to pull out the chair for my man or open doors for him, as he does for me (sometimes). I rarely see anyone acting in a chivalrous manner anymore...when I do, I'm like "awwww, that's the sweetest thing I've ever seen!"

Yesterday I introduced myself and said hello, 5 minutes later my post was removed.

However, someone answered another question I asked by calling me an idiot. His answer to my question is still there.

This is a pretty messed up site if it's a worse offense to be nice and say hello than it is to insult people.

I was watching Oprah last night, it was about the sexual predators out there, and them being caught. What is it with all the sicko's in this world today? Grown men wanting to have sexual relations with children, and them thinking it's okay, and that children should have the right, because they actually want this? Do they just have no clue what right, and wrong is? And half these guys are married with children, and more often then not, teaching children in our schools!! WTF is their issue! And then to get caught on camera, butt naked, and then go and get caught the very next day by the same people, I think this world is becoming more sick every day! And even a firefighter, and police officer helping a youth group got caught! I just don't get it, what the hell is their problems?
