I mean we have to work out butts off taking the order, getting drinks and delivering food, plus clean the dirty dishes off the tables when they are done eating and wash the dishes our self and they will leave you one dollar, how cheap is that?? what if they had to do all we do for 2.17 an hour and they act as if it is a big deal to leave more than a dollar. Talking about some cheap individuals in this world. Why is that??? Do you do this in all dine in resturants where you get good service and will run the waitress to death, and then leave a nasty mess for her to clean up. I think it is rude. We have families too, and a dollar just doesn't cut it.

This is assuming that (you think) others haven't noticed yet. Do you just run? Or do you say, "Excuse me, I have to go, I just crapped myself.

I never know how to react to that, except to say something like "Oh, no your not." Alot of times women will say to me "I wish I was thin like you." What is the polite way to answer statements like that?

I’m just curious? We seem like a cosmetic society and I was wondering how others felt about this question? I can’t wait until someone of you out there in answers land labels me as a cartoon racist!

lol Just food for thought. The question struck me as a funny one!

I received an email from a friend chiding me for not sending him a thank you note. This friend, whom I shall call "Mickey" made a number of laminated bookmarks from a piece of Photoshop art that I had created. "Mickey" then sent these bookmarks out as Christmas gifts to our group of friends, myself included.

Today "Mickey" sent this email to our group: "To those who thanked me for the photo print images I sent for Xmas, 'Thanks for the thank you. You rock!' To those who didn't, I'm not going to go all Miss Manners on your *** but you should really click here , won't you please?"

I replied snarkily with "Thanks for the gift and for telling me how to thank you for it."

Nonetheless, I believe that it is far, far ruder to send a group email reproaching friends for not yet sending a thank you note (after all, it is only 2 days past Christmas) than to have not sent the note at all.

Any comments?

being excited for reaching level 5. I asked the question "Unlimited questions?" earlier. Mainly just being goofy because I reached level 5. I made the mistake of responding to one answerer who gave me a great answer. Someone reported me for being chatty and the question was deleted. Is that pitiful or what?

What is the proper etiquette for when multiple people want to use one computer? Is it mean to kick someone off your computer? If so, how do you do it without hurting anyone's feelings? Should they have to ask permission first? What if it is someone who does not even live in the house, but is a friend of someone else who does live in the house?

I live with my wife and step-daughter. My step-daughter has her own computer and there is the one my wife and I share, which used to be my computer before we got married and I moved it. My step-daughters friends come over and she does not let them use her computer, but logs them in to my computer instead. She got the password from my wife. When her friends sleep over on weekends, then I hardly ever get a chance to use my computer. They are usually IMing or using MySpace. So my question is what is the right thing to do? Am I being immature by wanting to use my computer? To controlling? Paranoid by not knowing what they are doing with my comp?

Or should you be honest with the person and not laugh. Would that be awkward?
