I adore her children, they're cute and everything but for the past 2 years she's been sending me pictures of her children for my birthday, x-mas, valentine's, or any kind of celebrations, as gifts. It is very thoughtful of her that's why I really don't know how to tell her that I don't want to receive those framed pictures anymore. I have those pictures digitally saved in my computer (she emailed me) but then she still buy expensive (seriously expensive) frames and put the same pictures in them and send those to me as my presents. I am a minimalist, I only hang 3 framed pictures of my own wedding throughout the condo, and I really don't want to hang pictures of whoever else on the walls. I have stacks of framed pictures of her kids in the closet. If I don't tell her to stop now, I'm sure I'm going to get some more. How do I stop her nicely, very nicely?

Since taking my PSAT, I've gotten a whole bunch of e-mails/letters from colleges all over the country, advertising their "great programs". Is it rude to just delete these, if I'm never going to consider these colleges anyway? Thanks!

I work in a cubicle environment and the girl who sits behind me eats all day. Not only does she eat smelly foods but she eats with her mouth open and she makes a loud smacking sound with her lips that drives me crazy. I don't know her very well and I don't want to offend her, however, I feel I will snap at her soon.
Any suggestions on how to politely tell her to close her mouth while eating?

I work at a Ski Resort as a cleaning person...my boss is very unorganized. She never gives the schedules very far in advance...BUT, I called her yesterday asking her for my schedule for the week. She told me she would call me back and let me know...I could potentially have to work tonight at 5pm. It is now almost noon and she still hasn't called me. Would it be worng for me to tell her I can't work tonight if she asks. Should I call her and ask for my schedule before 5? I Need to know if I am being a b**ch or if she should give me more advance notice?

I recently went to Haulover beach which is a clothing optional beach in Miami, Florida. I was walking the shore and saw this 6ft 4 black guy with this short pretty slim blonde. This guy was extremely hung. He was naked and she was in her bikini. Are beautiful white women attracted to black men cause of theie penises. It made me sick that they were holding hands and he was kissing her on the lips. It didnt look natural at all. Why do white women go to black men? I know why black men go to white women and thats cause they are hot as fire!!!!

A girlfriend of mine, who is 33, is dating a 34 yr old guy. She's black, he's white. Well, he dresses like a 16 yr. old thug! Pants hanging down to his knees, baseball cap turned any way but the right way, he ALWAYS wears young, black inspired clothing, talks ebonics and so do all of his black friends that are all 5-10 years younger than him! I heard them talking about weed the other day, and I know my girlfriend detests drugs, so I told her what I heard. Now, this guy is threatening me like a gang banger would and calling me a "racist *****". I have a real hard time with this seeing that my friend of nine years now is a black woman and she's not the only black person I hang out with, or hispanic, or Jewish, or Canadian, or whatever!! If Im "racist", Im racist against punk thugs like him, don't you think??

Why do drama queens, that like to gossip and "stir the pot" seem to have a lot of friends? It seems to me that most people should try to avoid these personality types. It is due to the fact that it is very bad for their relationships with other people. Yet they seem to have a lot of friends. Why?

If I am on 'facebook' and my boss joined it too now, is it weird or incorrect for me to add him into my buddy list?

When I was young we were taught to be nice, like if you don't have anything nice to say don't say anything,
We respected the elderly, held doors for women and old people. We didn't snitch on each other. or threaten each other with guns. We knew how to be respectful. Now it seems as if all we teach kids is how to fight for what they feel their intitled to. They think we owe them somthing why is this?

His desk is near mine in the office, he almost never says hello. Different story is when the boss is around, fake laughs come out very easily whatver the boss says.
I shouldn't care I know but this guy is really nasty, he thinks he's all that. Most of the time I avoid saying hello but I don't like, on the opposite I don't like to say hello aloud so he's forced to answer.
He does like this with many people, especialy with people who can't help with his "carrier"...

Seriously...why do people insult eachother on-line, about nothing vitally important and with no reasonable solution in sight? Does it make them the bigger person? Do they not realize that it DOES hurt and that the person they deride will feel horrible as a result of their comments? Does it make the person insulting feel better about themselves or does it just make them feel angry? Does it really pay to be so intrusively hurtful? Does it increase their I.Q., make their waists smaller, make them feel more attractive or does it really delight them to make others writhe? Keep in mind...no one has DONE A THING TO THEM. How exactly does this "pay off" when all they're doing is hurting someone? Do they sometimes forget in the large scheme of things it's better to be nice than witty? Tell me why...tell me why anyone should listen to their hateful b.s.
