My local newspaper runs a weekly poll question where they go into our local mall and stop people and ask them a question...This weeks question was "Are you upset when you buy someone a gift and they do not reciprocate"? Most people actually answered yes. That they do not like to give gifts to people unless they feel they will get one in return and they think its very rude to not get one. Have we totally lost what Christmas stands for?

What would be proper etiquette? I'm a little old fashioned so I want to be sure I do this right. Do you speak with the lady's father first about marrying his daughter or do you propose & then go talk with the father? Been through one marriage & I want to do this one right from the beginning.

I work nights in a lab. I am the only woman in the entire building. We have the freedom to listen to radios and cd's. We each take turns listening to our music each night. There is a guy that listens to really nasty X rated music. the subject is eating pussy, blowjobs, fake ****, ******* whores etc. Really nasty rap music. I have told him in a friendly way that it offends me, but he continues to listen to it very loud. It embarreses me. There is no supervisor on our shift. My question is, should I just let the guy listen to this offensive music, or should I talk to a mangager about it. I dont want to be too much of a prude, but it bothers me. If I cause a problem we could lose our radio priveleges all around. What would you do?

Smoking is a social habbit taken up by many people in the world however we have now been given a deadline regarding where you can smoke,

Y is it that the goverrnment want everyone to stop ? If all the smokers stop there would be a bloody nightmare with the econamy. The tax paid on fags go's to hospitals etc so why are smokers refused treatment.

I shall smoke where I wish and when I wish! - I have always respected others and not smoked in no smoking zones = it should be left up to the indevidual.

If someone doesn't like smoking - y don't they go somewhere else - always the smokers get the attack !

My scalp gets really dry and itchy in the winter, and tonight
it's driving me crazy! I can't sleep, and it's almost midnight.
What I want to do is pour a bath and get some medicated shampoo on my head,
but I live in an apartment, and I'm pretty sure the neighbours can hear the water running
in my unit (I can hear the guy upstairs peeing when I'm in my bedroom!) What should I do?

PS: I can't do it in the sink cause I've got a back problems, and leaning over the sink would be torture.

the type of questions she asks

2006-12-12 18:23:15 · 23 answers · asked by Anonymous

i play in a band with a girl a year younger than me. she only started this year, and i've been playing for seven years.

recently, she's gotten a bit arrogant, and tried to demote me to third trumpet from second.

i took offence, as every time i tried to get my correct folder off her (2nd), i was told to f*** off.

she thinks shes better than me, i dont think she is.
so, i swapped the folders around, so the 2nd trumpet music is in the third trumpet folder, and vice versa.

i do occaisionally make mistakes, but i count the bars and play the notes with no help, while she watches others so she doesnt have to count, or concentrate, for that matter.

is she really better than me, or just plain rude?

What's the point of pretending to be something you're not just because other people are oversensitive?

You know, overhanded, as if they were still two?

Is this a regional thing, or what?

Drop in visitors...do you open the door enthusiastically or close the blinds and hide quietly? Not that I don't love getting together with my friends/family however I myself would never DROP IN. To me the thought of someone dropping in unannounced is horrifying!! I like to be prepared for the experience not lept upon unknowingly. Any thoughts?

I have posted this interesting (to me at least) question in another catagory, and was given an opportunity to extend it for a few more days to others to have an opportunity to answer.

Given that we seem to be seeing less and less mannners being displayed by adults let alone children out there public, like covering our mouths when we yawn.

I have always wondered if there are any children out there still being taught basic manners these days. (and yes there are few children that do cover thier mouths to yawn, cough, etc.) I have seen a child as young as four/five year old covering a yawn.

So basically my question again is this, have you ever seen or know a very young child that does this display of good manners. I find it very cute to see a child doing this.

Thanks for reading this.

On the very rare occasion that my Aunt comes to my house, she doesn't get out of her car. She sits in the driveway and toots on the horn, wanting us to come outside and walk up to her car. She does this on my children's birthday and on Christmas. On birthdays she wants us to send our child outside to her car to collect the gift (which she calls for the next 2 weeks to brag about & ask if our child is still playing with the toy she bought). My mother thinks this is very rude and that my husband and I should no longer accomodate her by coming out to the car. ..but rather she should come and knock on the door and come in the house. I can see my mom's point and I tried that once or twice and my Aunt started skipping her once every other month visit. lol
