I am a male teacher, and whenever I look at her I am distracted and my seriousness as a teacher is affected too. I don't know why she wears that type of dress.

Would you share with your family, church, charity, friends, organizations, hospital, police, etc. or keep all of it for yourself?

A lot of women cross their legs for a long time and they get a large round red spot on both their legs, on the calf and knee on the other leg. how do most women ignore that spot? i dont mind that spot at all. i was just curious how women walk around with that for like ten minutes?

Whenever there is a complaint about sex, profanity, drugs, violence, etc. to be made, the complainant always seems to have great knowledge of the incident/TV programme/ question on YA, etc that caused offence. Obviously, these people continue to expose themselves to material they find offensive way past the point they realised it was animal porn/snuff movie etc. rather than Wogan or "Songs of Praise".

Now personally, I would not go to church because I would find the activities there to be sanctimonious, preachy and dull - at best - and should I accidentally tune in to "Songs of Praise" I would change channel. If I instead were to sit through the whole programme, I would not expect any sympathy if I found it to come across a bit holier than thou.

So are these complainers just too thick to realise that "The Helmet Rides Again" is not going to turn into a war epic after the fifth nob gag and second gratuitous tittie shot, or are they just closet perverts protesting too much?

really, why bother, this place is for help and info. not top put down someone elses knowledge, who has enough intelligence to ask about what they dont know in the first place. If half of you people who are so politically correct are really that perfect.. you must have really boring 9-5's to have the time to put me down. and i'm a student before you ask what i do!!

Ok well my husband and i both work very hard and we have 4 children. anyway we are having some financial problems but were working on it. We went to my inlaws today for Thanksgiving (i diddnt come empty handed mind you) I know that my husbands step mother has been talking to his sister about our delema. well today when we got there his sister did everything possible in her power to try and make me feel inatiquit. from my job right down to my parenting skills. she diddnt come right out and say it but just coments that were made and glares. this really confuses me because they arent very well off and she doesnt work. a year ago they were having worse troubles in fact. after a while, my daughter started acting up so i excused ourselves, appoligised, thanked my mother in law for dinner and we left.(couldnt hold my tounge any longer had to leave) was it rude of me to leave? should i have told my husband how i felt because i did?

It's been 60 days and not one room in the 3 bdrm home is packed, they claim it's because no one has helped. Spending 2 hrs helping pack I them realized why no one else was helping. My Friend had to be included in the packing of each box, specifically telling me how to wrap items, how to tape the box, and all the reasons why. I am 40 yrs old and worked for many packaging companies...I've even moved a few times, this was very insulting to me and I really feel I need to tell her how she is overpackaging everything, getting nowhere fast, and why she has no help. I need to get the point across for productivity.....not to make her cry and don't know what would be the best way to approach this situation.

last night i had my birthday party.
I tried to invite all my best friends, but i had to omit one because i knew if i didnt invite this one girl, who we will call X, she would nag me and beg and what not.


So i invited X.

During my party, X missed a call from her friend.

Instead of being polite and waiting until the party finished,she walked outside and called her back.

I went out to see where she had gone, and she was chatting away about pretty much nothing.

I was really offended and hurt,
do I go up to her and tell her that what she did was really slack?

was it slack at all???

We had my sister and niece visiting us this week. We went to my parent's house for thanksgiving since most of our family lives two hours away from me and my boyfriend. We planned to spend the night at either my parent's house or my grandparent's house. Since there was a lot of confusion, no one knows who was staying where. My sister assumed we were at my grandparent's houe.

My sister forgot medicine for her daughter at me and my boyfriend's place. Since my sister's niece have really bad asthmas problem and my sister cannot get ahold of anyone. So she end up borrow my mom's car to drive to my house.

My sister went behind the house to break a large window and start to look for the light switches. So my boyfriend got scared and pulls a gun out.

From what my sister and boyfriend told me, my boyfriend went down and sneak up on her. My sister didn't even see or heard my boyfriend until he shine flash light in her face with a gun pointed at her face.

My boyfriend say she should've not

When we were younger we were told 'Do Not Bob Out Your Tongue' because it's rude.
Why is it rude?

some of the people at my job are so lazy. I work to pay for college and despite my hectic college schedule, I never call in sick. Haven't called in once in the 2 years that I have worked there. There people who are not going to college and do not have a second job are calling in sick at least once a week. When they do come to work, they work hard not to work. Then they wonder why they get fired. What is so difficult about showing up to work and doing your job???

I am getting sick of many companies referring to their employees as associates! As an example I have called companies where I have been put on hold and while waiting I have heard the following ridicoulous statement: 'all of our associates are busy assisting other customers - please stay on the line and an associate will soon assist you'. What is wrong with the term 'Customer Service Representative'? Places like Wal-Mart and the HomeDepot like to call their employees associates. The other part of my gripe is why do many retailers refer to their customers as 'guests'? I am of the old school where I may be a guest in a hotel, a patron in a restaurant but in a hardware store or a department store to have 'associates serving guests' seems to me to be too politically correct. Are they trying to placate minimum wage employees by giving them titles but no real pay and elevating the status of the people they are dealing with the patronizing title of guest?

Two individuals attended our wedding reception and caused scenes. Neither brought a gift, so I am not required to thank them for that, both got very drunk, and one of them called a mentally challenged guest (my husband's coworker!) a retard. She also made a rude comment in front of others about my best friend; the comment nearly had my friend in tears. Neither said congratulations or thank you when they left. I am genuinely not thankful for their presence at the reception, and neither is my husband.

I thanked the female guest for attending a wedding shower even though she did not bring a gift. I thanked her for her support or something like that (she is actually my sister in law).

I want to do what follows etiquette best, and what will minimize drama. Help!

My friends mother passed away. The funeral is soon. His parents were divorced years ago. The father will most likely attend the services. The problem is that the father can be obnoxious, especialy after a few drinks. Should my friend tell him not to come to the funeral? If he does come to the services, how could he get him to leave if he becomes unruly? Are there such things as bouncers for funeral services? And if there arn't how could my friend be expected to lay hands on his own father? His maternal grandmother will be there too - we don't want her to have to witness any drama than she has already just had to suffer. So what would you all do?
