Etiquette - December 2006

that I have a "freaky" habit. You see, I absolutely love whipped cream. I buy tubs of whipped cream and eat at least one small tub a day of it. I am not kidding! My problem is that my boyfriend thinks that my so called "fetish" is a sign of sexual freakiness that I am just
not realizing. I tell him that freakiness has nothing to do with my sensation with whipped topping. I do not eat it with cakes or put on desserts. I eat it straight out of a bowl. I told him I would write a question to yahoo readers to find who is right? Please tell me what ;you think, thanks

Should you allow her to open it in front of the gift giver or is it better to make her wait for xmas; with the risk of offending the neighbor?

When I say if it is okay, I mean is it looked down upon because of Christmas Eve or is it normal?. I would really appreciate your opinion. Thanks.

I'm never good at coming up with something to say in a sympathy card. I want to keep it short and sweet, but meaningful. It's to a former co-worker and her husband whom I also know. What should I write?

How come I always see people taking strollers on escalators with their infants/children in them when there are signs two or three places stating that it is not permitted? I could understand if all those people where illiterate or the signs were only in one language but the signs show pictures as warnings. I never see people trying to push up wheelchairs with someone in them mostly only strollers. I just don't understand it with all the people that die in escalators and the children that get killed or injured from the parents constantly doing exactly this why do they still insist on trying it and "hoping for the best" especially when there is an elevator a few steps away. It just doesn't seem like something I would take a chance on, even if it wasn't for all of the people that get shredded in the escalators but for the signs alone, obviously they have the sign for just that reason, I just don't understand how so many people can do something so harmful.

If a man was brought up with the idea to never hit a female no matter what the reason was, would that affect the situtation or would it be different based on what he believes. When a person is brought up, whatever he is taught is not always what he believes, now if this person was caught in a situtation where a female was acting up and decided to hit a male, let's say the male hit the female back for the attack he recieved, how would you react to the action if you were a bystander? Take in mind that males are usually taught to never hit but defend themselves unless it's a female, they are taught to never hit a female no matter what, yet females are taught to never hit but always defend themselves no matter what. It is a double standard that can create confussion and it seems a bit unfair.

We're not christian so im not sure of the ettiquette. She has two small boys. Shall I get something for them? Or just something like a houseplant? Oh, Alcohol isnt an option.
I'm just worried Ill show up with nothing and she'd have gotten something for my little boys. Any not too expensive ideas?

I was shopping today and a women brought her (what looked to be a 13 year old son) into the ladies restroom with her. They went into the stall together. I think that he is old enought to wait outside of the bathroom for her. It did not LOOK like he was handicapped so even if you were paranoid of him getting kidnapped dont you think that is way too old to accompany a parent into the opposite sex restroom.
There was a 13 year old girl in to bathroom and I thought her eyes were going top pop out of her head.
What do you think?

We have a woman who lives with us, she's a friend of my parents, and has no where else to go. In her 50's, her kids deserted her, and she recently lost her youngest in a plane crash. She has health issues and cant work, so we just take care of her.

I know it sounds like a free loading situation, but its not like that. Theres more to it than the above, but it comes down to us providing for her, and her feeling really bad that she has no other alternative at this point. I mean, she feels so bad that she never comes out of her room. EVER. she's perfectly mobile, but she NEVER comes out. just to pee.

Anyway, she eats the WORST things.... like, for a few weeks she might just eat avacados, or just lettuce, or just roasted chickens. Literally tahts all she'll eat, all day.

She eats garlic powder and onion powder on EVERYTHING, and usually its not that big of a deal, but lately, for a week at a time, she'll do stints of canned salmon on lettuce and DRENCHED in garlic and onion powder.

I HATE it when people do that!!! THAT'S IRRITATING!!!!!!!!!! I know it's ridiculous, but that's one of my pet peeves. Why? I don't know (other than that they don't have any consideration for other people). I guess it's just in my nature!
