I would like to know if all who are present at the party are going to get lap dances, or have contact with the strippers. My boyfriend is going to one at a small bar in a few days and I am really bugging out.

How do we reduce the number of people who spit on the roads? Do you have any suggestion? I am sure most of us feel irritated when we see anyone spit near us or spit in front of us in the midle of the road. It really affects the hygeine besides the pollution we face day in and day out. My thought is why dont we join together and find a solution for this. I assume most of the countries/states face this issue. People who live in countries where this is not happ. provide your valuable thoughts. Thanks.

A couple of days ago my friend and I were planning on going to lunch. We planned this since Wednesday that we were going to lunch on Sunday. Sunday rolls around and I call my friend at 11am. She is still sleeping. Finally she calls me back an half an hour later and I remind her about our lunch date. She responds by saying she has to clean her room and wants to eat a late lunch at 3:00pm. I'm starving by then. But I tell her that is fine but, I felt a little frusterated because she ruined my day. I had to wait all day long for her to pick me up at my house.
She could of cleaned her room when she got home after lunch.
Was this rude of her?

My friend, she is so pretty.. Yet she has had the same hair style since high school (she is now, 40 yrs) and I would like to express to her in a nice way that the style she is wearing does not compliment her.. She has a round face but at the temples it narrows in.. When she pulls back her hair, it looks so good. Any suggestions? She is wanting it cut, I am sure the same style and I think she is secure with the style.. How can I address this to her? Or should I ?

Hi, I'm a girl. Just the other day I loosened my belt after a heavy meal and my fellow girl friends said that I should be doing that in the toilet and not in public. However another of my guy friend said girls looked sexy doing that. Is it wrong or rude to loosen or tighten ur belt in full view of the others? Is it sending a wrong message to the opposite sex? As far as I know, I'm not exposing anything.

For the past 4 months, my neighbors cat has wandered the neighborhood...and EVERY MORNING I come out to my car and see a fresh set of paw prints all over my car!!!

Each and every morning, I discover that this cat spent the evening walking all over my car. I can't imagine the havoc this is causing my paint job.

I've talked to them several times, and asked them to keep their cat indoors...all to no avail.

So, I went out and purchased a squirrel trap (the guy told me this is a humane way to trap cats)...I put some tuna fish in the trap and low and behold I found the cat in there yesterday morning.

I knocked on the neighbors door w/ the trap in hand, but they weren't home. So I left the trap w/ detailed instructions on how to open it on their doorstep so when they got home they could get their cat out.

Well, they were ANGERED with me to the point where they threatened physical violence. I didn't want it to come to this, so how can I correct this situation?

I had a birthday party for my son's 2nd BD on Saturday and want to know if I should write or call the invitees for coming, or should they thank me for inviting them? What is proper. Gifts were brought and I verbalized a thank you. One of the guest was a new friend I have met who brought her daughter. SHe has yet to call, email or make any communication since. More curious about her, should I take a hint that she doesn't want to be my friend because she didn't follow up? In addition, her daughter's BD (sameage) is this week and I have yet to be invited to that party. Weird situation.

A friend of mine has invited me and my family over to watch the Super Bowl. They are providing food and a keg. She is also calling it a housewarming party since they just moved in about a month ago and nobody has really been to see the new house. She told me that we didn't need to bring anything but, I just can't do that. So, since food and beer will be provided...what should I bring?

What do people give as housewarming gifts these days?

I think of myself as a postmodern ironic pedant.

If the sign says "wait here", I do. If asked if I can be helped, I reply, "No thanks, I'm quite good at waiting"

If the sign says, "Don't walk on the grass", I run/skip/hop/cartwheel instead.

At a Strbucks in Edinburgh there was a sign in the toilet saying, "Put only toilet paper down the toilet." So I pee'd in the sink and shoved a load of paper down the toilet.

I like to "Ring for attention", although I rarely get much attention for the little dance I then perform.

I see no reason why pedestrians should not obey "stop" signs - even if it means others have to walk around me.

As you can see, I like to be obedient in these ways.

Do you have any suggestions for new ways I can do as I'm told?

I need help immediately!?
I am thinking about leaving everything right now: my boyfriend, my friends and other selected people. I hate them all so much that when I look at them I want to shut my head in a microwave. I’ve never thought about hurting them, but every night I just want to punch myself in the throat. They are so ugly they make me sick. A particlar person I have selected is nick namedJFK-Just Fatty Kathy. She is so fat and there is nothing I can do about it. Besides telling her to stop eating and start exercising. As for my friend, I caught them kicking my dog, so I decided that I would give their cat up for adoption. Those b*tches. And for my boyfriend he is just a ******. I hate them so much. What should I do?

Why is this world so fixated on looks? I don't believe in god but I feel like I'm being punished by life. Maybe I deserve to be. I'm not the greatest person in the world but I can't do anything anymore because I'm afraid to go outside. People will judge me! I just want to stay in bed and cry all day. Why do I have to be ugly?! Why do I deserve this?! I'm going to be a virgin forever because nobody even wants to be seen with me! I'm stuck like this forever and it pains me everyday. I can't deal with anymore. I don't even want to live anymore because everyday is pain for me! It's eating me inside like cancer and one day I feel like I'm just going to crack!! I can't deal with it, everyone treats me like a disease, and honestly, my personality is becoming like one because of how I am treated... WHAT CAN I DO!?

is it true, that teachers who are touchy with their students and put their hands on their students shoulders, etc...are the ones who dont get enough affection from their wives, children etc...
If your teacher does this all the time to almost everyone of their students, and puts his hand on your shoulder, gives you mini hugs etc. and you can just tell hes not a pervert. Why would a teacher be so starved of affection that he does this. I also have a teacher like this.

I'm always putting myself down whenever I want to go up to someone and meet them. I always tell myself things like "they have enough friends, leave them alone, they're not talking to you for a reason" and "don't waste their time" and "you'll bore them or make them uncomfortable; don't be a burden"...

...I was wondering if writing them a simple not with a Hi-ish theme and just basically introduce myself, try to be the cute-funny, and just have a "I want to meet you but too shy to go up to you" line in there would work? Or is writing notes and giving them to people an extinct form of communication and, even more, be scary to strangers?

Thanks in advance.

Okay well I have this teacher in college, and he touches people all the time, both guys and girls. He puts his hand on ur shoulder, while hes standing behind you. Or if he gets a real happy moment he might hug you and I get the feeling if I would hug him back he might cry with joy. But I don't. Other times this teacher acts kind of depressed and sad. Myu question is, why do some rare teachers do this (put their hand on you), while others teachers are so stiff and no personality that they barely look at u, let alone want to touch you? What kind of personality will cause a teacher to want to touch his/her students not in a sexual or provacatative way? But just in a warm way.

I have a best friend and her birthday is coming up at the end of this week. She is going to have a birthday party. The only thing is I have an issue with one person she is inviting to her party. And, I'm thinking of not going because I cannot stand this person. This person have bipolar disorder and talks constantly. We used to be friends however, he would not leave me alone and called me every second of the day. He was just annoying. I'm not friends with him anymore. However, my friend is. We ended on very bad terms. He is most likely going to be at this party but I do not feel comfortable running into him. I bought my friend a present. If I did not attend this party would this be considered rude on my part?

I don't know if I'm wrong or not, but I don't like when people "I know" happen to come over to my house and start taking pictures without asking, don't you find this innapropriate? And, no matter how politely you sort of let them know you aren't pleased with that they get offended, (it happened when I was in another part of the house or busy on the phone, different people have done it) Any advice?
