Etiquette - March 2007

I love the female form (too much) and my eyes are drawn to the sexy out on the street despite my discomfort.
My wife, 120# soaking wet, dresses modestly and saves the warm form for me. That's the way I like it. How about you?

Gosh, I can't stand the voice of my colleague... Not to mention the things he say. Help me...

I'm just going for support. I've met the family only once so I don't know them very well. What do I say to them? "I'm sorry for your loss" seems little cliche.. Anything else? Should a hug be given also?

Even though I dont really like kids, I get that they are loud and they play and scream and run around and all that. I cannot tolerate them playing in front of my bedroom window and waking me up several times a week.
Theres plenty of space to play outside, yet many mornings they climb up the little hill and stand on the small piece of flat land in front of my window. This morning they were dicussing how the 'wolf-man' sounds and all howling. They have done similar things before, and have knocked on the window.
I looked out the window and one kid yells to his mom that someone looked at him. She responded by telling him to get down before someone comes out and yells at him....why didnt she yell at him? in my neighborhood, all the apts have bedrooms in the front. and regardless, you dont allow your children to play a foot in front of someones window, my mama would never have allowed me to do that!
how do i handle this? i know people are defensive about their kids....

Not a server, just tired of explaining to people I know how and why to tip properly. Can you servers properly explain why to tip properly and how it impacts you so that customers who tip poorly or don't tip can understand? Thanks.

Personally, I could not come up with an answer to this one. The neighbor told me that her friends and her were discussing this at school. If they had to choose which one would they pick? Which one would You?

My aunt is dying of alcoholic cirrhosis. She is dying, but will be in and out of hospital for maybe 2-6 months until the end. I know she caused it herself, but I still feel sorry for her and her loss of life. A "Get Well Soon!" card seems inappropriate; any suggestions on kind, loving, polite things to write in a bank card?

I walk down the halls and block people out of my friends way like a football guy. Sometimes they are facing the other way, and I try to block them but I still fall down backwards because I'm a little guy. Plus I was wearing sunglasses but this one girl twisted them like a pretzel and put them back on my face.

I got sent to the principal's office and I told the principal to watch it so I got sent home for that. Now I'm basically just practicing in my front yard, but there is no one to practice on, so I am guarding a tree. Help. I'm in 4th grade.

When I travel by Bus or Train I always get the weirdo sitting next to me or in the same carriage. If I am enjoying a quiet pint and a cigar in my local, the weirdo always comes up to me and tries to start a conversation based around my Habanos Robusto... Why??????? Well I know one thing he has a name, it is SIMON R and he is right here on Answers. He's been a member for 1 week, has 103 points, does not allow e-mail or IM and has not asked nor answered a question. To top it all he has the audacity to add me to his contact list without my permission, making it look like we are buddies. WHY do I always get the bloody weirdoes???????????????????

And what the hell. Agree or disagree. And if you disagree are YOU prepaired to stop using your car are YOU prepaired to stop using aeroplane,s . Just putting a couple of glass bottles in your "green bin" Is not enough. Harsh but true.

It seems a lot of women wear hip huggers or something similar now. A lot of times they will be exposing a little bit of butt. I was in a store and the clerk kept bending helping a customer, exposing her butt several times. Should I say something or only if I know the lady?

Ok so I just moved in 5 months ago and my german neighbor was pretty nice. she started giving me things and telling me where i should put them in my own home and telling me i have to clean our community garbage cans out (which no one does but her) and saying how she refuses to do it alone. keep in mind i just moved in at the time(not the most polite way to get to know me). she even came over once bc their was a bumper to a car sitting outside our apt. building and she thought she would get in trouble for it being there, and practically accused us at our doorstep of it being ours. So now when i see her i try avoiding her, i still say hi but just a quick one. now she just stares me down all the time and won't even say a quick "hello". what is the deal? i try not to get close with neighbors bc then it turns into obligations and awkwardness if you butt heads.but we butted heads before knowing each other, Is it their culture to be so forward about things or is she just a picky neighbor?

Clean, I mean beautiful clean. Like the food is just clean. Make you want to eat the food, not the food eat you. Food this clean can make a messy chef a better one. Well yey clean food, thats a new way of eating now. Because I think eating healthy, is not really doing the job. But whoa eating clean food almost a new perspective about foods. Pravo.

For my birthday my boyfriends mother bought me the tackiest, ugliest, smallest, handbag, that was also very expensive. I feel like crying at the thought of actually being seen in public with it. Would it be tacky to gently tell her that I love it but would it be okay to exchange it for something more practical that isn't pink and purple and perhaps larger so I could use it often to remind me of her kindness???? I can't imagine why anyone would think that this is nice, but I don't want to insult her either.

I love the dessert, but I always end up making a mess of it. If I bite it, the shell cracks all over, and I end up with goo in my hands...unless of course pop the whole thing in my mouth all at once...which I don't think is the right way to do it either...
