What exactly does Yahoo! mean by "catching butterflies" and do you find the term derogatory towards women?

Especially in the ad of an Intenet giant as huge as Yahoo!?

I know a guy who will go into a restraraut and order a cheap entree, then he will eat only salad from the complimentary salad bar until he is full, and then takes the entree home for another meal.I think it is tacky and cheap as he makes a decent wage.

I have a female co worker who is a rude loud mouth. She says whatever is on her mind, politically correct or not, she doesn’t care. She is constantly taking jabs at me, like calling me” Baby di*ck” all because I forgot to lock the door to our unisex restroom and she walked in. She says it in front of other co workers who laugh; I guess the rumor has gotten around. I have spoken to my supervisor and I guess she hasn’t done anything because the girl is still mean to me. I was thinking of spraying her in the face with a super soaker full of piss. What are your thoughts? Yeah I will lose my job, but screw it.

send the food back if it's cold or cooked not to your order preference? Like a steak over done. Or a dish over cooked. I believe you should but some people are just to embarrsed. Why?

I went out with a few coworkers for some drinks after work a while ago and said a few things I probably shouldn't have to this hot co-worker of mine. Now she won't leave me alone, I understand that I started it but I was a little drunk and I don't want anything to happen now. I've already asked her to stop flirting with me and that I was sorry if I misled her, but she still does. Should I report her? If I do can it become public knowledge as my girlfriend works at the same company but fortunately not in the same building. How can I make this woman stop, It's seriously driving me nuts because if I wasnt so commited to my relationship now, I would seriously do some of those dirty things she says to me.

I've encoutered alot of crazy rudeness. People yelling out gentials (my bipolar mom did that), someone interrupting a cinversation between a couple and the bus driver (a chubby old guy burped sudenly and I delayed to laugh). When I was in middle school an aggressive perverted kid threw threw a math book at the teacher, but missed. He was busted! Another kid I just met starts drooling on the table and yelling like a maniac! He resembled somewhat some other kid I knew that would thow loose change donw the hallways after lunch.

My soon to be 7 yr old son wants to have a party @ a bowling alley, how do I word the invitations so parent don't bring sibling along w/the ones we've invited. The party size is limited to a certain amount of kids...and after that you pay more per kid. I really don't want to pay extra for ones that aren't friends of my sons.

A lot of people look down on my girlfriend because of that, but mostly the women...the guys can't keep their eyes off her when we are out but I don't care cuz she is all mine...and if you think she is easy...just try>

It is unfair for people to assume she is easy just because of what she like and I like..I think she is sexy in her tight jeans...and she has a naughty come hither look when she smokes cigarettes, but she is not easy.

A lot of the kids are asking and answering questions using the cell phone shortcuts of i's, u's, and ur's, etc. Although this may be cool and neat, I'm sad to think this is the result of our education system. Kids: this Yahoo site is an opportunity to use those grammar, spelling and puncutation rules you learned and hated. If you go for a job and express yourself this way, they'll never take you. Why not talk to the public using English, and talk to you friends using i's and u's? Comments?

I am so fed up with the way society has allowed total access to everyone. Why are individuals so important that they feel they have to have full life conversaions out loud in public on thier cell phones? Do we really need to discuss everything we talk about while driving through the neighborhoods where my children are playing? Is it necessary to take a call while others are watching a movie? Why do people feel it's teir right to act like this? Don't they see how rude it is? Maybe it's me? am I too sensitive? Should I say anything to them or let them go on being rude?

We just moved into a new community. My upstairs neighbor thoughtfully brought me a plate of cookies (wrapped in pretty yellow paper on a ceramic plate).

Of course I thanked her graciously. But do I follow up with a thank you card and do I return the plate???? Do I make her something from my house? What is the "correct" thing to do??? Do I just accept the gift and do nothing in return?

Ok a few years ago my wife and I were at a restaurant it was empty except for us and two other tables. I had a hard time deciding what to get between two things by the time the waitress came I made up my mind The waitress was horrible rude she never cleared our appetizer plates and never refilled our drinks. We had already decided not to leave a tip Well the wrong food came but I could not remember what I ordered because it was one of the two things I was choosing between. When the bill came I saw she charged me for the other thing which was less money we paid exact change no tip and left. While we were leaving the one other table was complaining about their food because they were missing an entrée the one I just ate

I dear say that you are so terribly arrogant and awefully rude. I am a trifle cross about your lack of manners and your detestable face.

Question:
what are you going to do to improve yourself and obtain my approval?
