We sent out invitations and some people went up to my fiance and ask if they can bring their children. My fiance told some yes because he didn't know how to say no. We discussed it before the wedding, but he still can't say no. (Especially to his close friends.) Some of the guest just added people..e.g. children, significant others when they RSVP'd. We are on a budget and the place we are holding the reception at can only accomodate a certain amount of people. We decided that we'd keep the list to 300 people. We are now at 350 and we still haven't gotten back all of the RSVPs.

When I was cleaning the men's room at the bus station, I found a pack of Juicy Fruit Gum in the urinal. It wasn't pre-chewed, like you may have thought from my question (that would be gross). It was still sealed and a little wet, but it smelled ok. Anyway, it tasted really salty. Could pee have actually seeped into the package, or do you think that there was something wrong with it and thats why someone threw it into the urinal?

I know in some cultures/religions this is clearly acceptable but what about just plain ole Americans who want to keep their carpet clean? Does it matter if we are talking family thats over, a party with close friends? not so close friends? A more formal business type party (e.g., entertaining potential clients)?

I received an invite addressed to me and guest. My husband will not go, so is it appropriate for me to bring one of my girl friends, even though I'm married?

Men need the seat up, women need it down. Men don't nag women if they leave the toilet seat down but women nag men if they leave the seat up. Why?

I WAS MINDING MY OWN BUSINESS EARLIER TODAY AS I WALKED DOWN THE STREET ON MY WAY TO MY 3 MILLION DOLLAR A YEAR JOB. SUDDENLY FROM OUT THE SEWERS CAME A CRIPPLE IN AN ELECTRONIC WHEELCHAIR!!!! HE CUT ME OFF, AND SAID 'DAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRR' LIKE A FARKING MONGOOSE. THATS WHEN I DECIDED I WASNT ABOUT TO TAKE ANY OF HIS $HIT ANY MORE!!! IT WAS THEN THAT I LOST MY NORMALLY COOL COMPOSURE AND FLEW INTO A FIT OF RAGE!!!! I WALKED UP BEHIND HIS WHEELCHAIR AND TURNED THE SWITCH TO 'OFF' AND TOOK THE BATTERY OUT SO HE COULDN'T ESCAPE!!!! HE TRIED SEVERAL TIMES TO ACCELERATE (HE DIDN'T KNOW YET THAT I HAD DEACTIVATED HIS CHAIR!!!!) FINALLY THEN I LOOKED HIM SQUARE IN THE EYES AND SAID 'MERRY CHRISTMAS *****!'. I EXECUTED A GOVERNMENT-BANNED FLYING NINJA KICK TO HIS THROAT!!!! HE FELL RIGHT OUT OF HIS WHEELCHAIR AND LANDED ON THE STREET!!! I SAID 'IM SENDING YOU BACK TO THE GENETIC CESSPOOL YOU CRAWLED OUT OF' AND I DRUG HIM INTO AN ALLY BY THE CORD ATTACHED TO HIS FEEDING MACHINE.

The neighbor girl was leaning back in my chair during an unexpected visit to my apartment yesterday evening, and ended up falling backwards... That one clumsy moment of hers is not the reason I don't return her feelings because I am clumsy myself--there are other reasons; nonetheless, after her mishap, I apologized profusely, asked if she was well, and such even though it was her own fault.

...but then she tried to kiss me when I was helping her back up. I was chewing gum at the time; so, I popped a bubble right in her face so that she could not kiss me. Was this the appropriate thing to do? I've had to pop gum in her face when she tried this before...it works only temporarily.

I saw her today, asked if she was okay, apologized again, and she said she was perfectly fine; I just don't want her to kiss me or such...

He knew he was an egg and that gravity is bad. Yet he still gets up on the wall? Can someone explain the irony in this to me?

I want to put my education qualifications on my visiting card (personal one). In my culture it is acceptable to do so but I am not sure what the correct etiquette is. I did my Masters in the UK and my undergrad in the US - is that something I would include? Any help would be appreciated! ! !

I have an aunt in her 70's who smells really really bad. Somehow it doesn't bother her, but people often comment about this behind her back, because everyone is afraid to mention this to her. She goes to the hair dresser once a week to get her hair washed, and that is the only time she washes her hair. She does not shower. She cleans up w/ a wash cloth on Fridays, and that's it. It is sickining and unhealthy. What can I do? I've bought her bath and shower products, and they just sit in her bathroom unopened. There is also a handicap essable shower in her house, that she doesn't use. And she doesn't like to wear perfume, so that answer won't help! Yikes!

They usually take an age to mine their purse or cash from the mammoth hand bag that they threaten you with if you " tut".

I have a buddy who, for some go-awful reason, tells the most ridiculous stories which are completely out of left field, then tries to drag me into the lies. Is it better to call him a moron and make him look even more retarded then he's making himself look, or should I participate and look just about as retarded as he does?

My next question is for the actual huge stroller people.?
Why? Why so big? What happend to carrying or hand holding? Are you nice or mean with your double occupancy wide stroller? Isn't it just as hard to put all that crap back in the car as it is to take what you need?
