Etiquette - January 2007

I sit across from my boss and he shakes his leg constantly which causes the floor to also shake. This has actually made me nauseous. There are others that sit near me that complain about this habit of his as well, yet will not say anything about it.
I like my boss, and do not want to upset him, but I also do not want to deal with the constant shaking any longer. Any suggestions as to how I can approach him on this tactfully?

Should there be a law against the contemptuous wearing of baseball caps backwards ?
Why ?
Because it looks obnoxious and distasteful and is totally offensive.
Agreed ?

Sometimes when i am in other countries i am mistaken "im British" for another citizen of another country , are all those people who make that mistake racist.? because we are what we are the difference between a Pakistani and an Indian are not so obvious , its NOT an English issue why the two countries dont get on. All of you with a different colour skin to me are guilty of not accepting that this is cultural difference and is prevalent in any country , however , repeat however , only England has the freedom of speach that allows you to discuss these matters ,as we do now , dont abuse this freedom.

I am used to buying gifts for friends, relatives, children, its just my nature. I have been buying several gifts for my lover and I really don't expect him to do the same to me, one day he asked me why I am fond of buying him gifts. I explained that its just my nature and I feel thats one way of expressing my love. I don't know if he appreciates them at all, am I just wasting my money or I should carry on doing what pleases me?

I fell in deep love with my friend's bro...(more of an acquaintance now) ...I seriously thought I was over him...I was enjoying life and all was good. So, I finally decided to befriend him, but I have come to realize that maybe that wasn't such a good idea-this made me inadvertently start thinking about him, and it hurts because I never see him at all....God only know when I'll see him again. It's not like we're buddy buddy with each other. He accepted my friendship via myspace, I'm sure he doesn't like me like that-plus he's 24, and I'm almost 20-and I have known them for 6 years, and well him-he wasn't around much when I was close with her, so it's not like he knows me. Any who, how did you deal with this? I think time and prayer. Thanks.

As a black man or woman, do you give elderly white men or women the benifit of the doubt if they use words like colored boy, or colored girl, or ***** when talking about someone of color? That is, do you consider they grew up that way or do you still find it offensive, I'm talking about just the use of the words and not being used in a derrogatory way, or mean spirited.

If we can have ventilated smokers' lounges, then why not a place for everyone to vent in safety?

To contain one's wind is unhealthy and potentially dangerous; a farting room would be a like a breath of fresh air to the office, or other enclosed public place.

What do you think of a provision of ventilated farting rooms in larger workplaces or other public places?

ok, i go to a private school, not a fancy one, but just a skool for kids who are having problems with public school, or, in my case and others, the legal system. as much as i hate to say it, and as politically incorect as it is, theres quite a few 'retards', outcasts, idiots, and autistic kids. i have nothing against these people, except that they wont leave me alone, drool, smell funny, or **** all over the bathroom floor. please, dont judge me harshly. theres this one girl there, who keeps sitting close to my 'group', doesnt have a CLUE. she keeps trying to talk to me, and it makes me sick just to look at her. ( a teacher will explain something, she'll kinda sit there half asleep with her mouth open - she looks like kim jong il or whatever) every time someone is absent, she will announce it to the teacher 'oh, _______ isnt here today' as if she was freinds with them and knew what they were up to. i know it sounds aweful, but i just dont want anything to do with them. any suggestions?
