A guy named George went into the bathroom, there was only one other guy in there, they both were at the urinals, and George just stared at the other guy the whole time? Just like staring, not saying anything to him.
AHahah I think that would be funny.

instead of trying to force their customs upon us?

After all, it does not speak of good manners for guests to insult their hosts

I have known this girl getting married for many years and I have helped do alot for this wedding, I just don't know what the appropriate wedding gift would be. It is helps, she is the only child, has had 3 wedding showers already and her dad is a top doctor. This wedding is very costly and black tie so I never thought I would be invited not to mention all my co-workers and other doctors from the hospital. If anyone has any ideas I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks

to think someone gets to the front of the queue, sitting in their underpants at home, when the person at the front of the queue has walked all the way in to see you in person?

This isn't meant to be racist, and if you think it is, I could care less about your narrow minded opinion, I'll just give you a thumbs down and avoid reading your retarded answer. with that out of the way...

I was reading on another board that black people as a whole LOVE shrimp. I've never seen a black person at red lobster on the all you can eat shrimp thing(which as a white guy, I dominate btw) so, the question is, Is shrimp a well liked fodd with black culture?

Also, while I'm at it. I rarely see black people eating mongolian or mexica food. is this a cultural gap, or is this a geographical gap?

I may have made a rude comment about a freind of mine in front of some people. I made a rude comment about a male freind of mine with a lazy eye in front of another female freind of mine with a lazy eye, forgetting that she was there. This male freind that I made the comment about, knows me really well and we joke around with each other all the time, but other people dont know that, including the female freind that was there. I am afraid that I may have really insulted this female freind, and I am not sure what to do. Please help....

Just as an example..... Let's say you were invited to a friends house for dinner.When you get there.. You discover that they are making a meal that you despise.SOmething that you cant even get within 5 ft of because the smell or the sight of it would make you gag! For example ..Liver and Onions or if you live in the southwest like I did.. Cow tongue tacos.
Of course nobody would ask if their host has anything else that would be rude!
My question is .. what would do? would you eat it and suffer the consequences later? would you politley tell the host that your allergic to it as to not hurt their feelings? Or would you suffer through it as to not be rude or hurt the host feelings! Honest answers please

Essentially what I mean is if they turn their noses up at it and say "I don't like it....haven't you got anything else?"

I try to acknowledge and be appreciative when I receive superior service in stores like WalMart, BestBuy, etc.

I've done the obvious:
* said thanks to the person (pgo)
* mentioned their name to their manager
* if in a rush, made a note to myself to call later before I forget
* gone to store website to use "contact us" (time consuming ... but perhaps there is a better way)

Other suggestions: I'm looking for the best r.o.i. .... easier and less time consuming so I will be inclined to do this more rather than less.

I am planning a surprise dinner/birthday party at an exclusive and extremely expensive restaurant for a friend that I have known since childhood(only because it his favorite restaurant). I don't have a problem with the cost. The problem is the guest list. I have had a person who I really don't want to invite to request an invitation. It is his cousin. I really don't care for the man, he is moody, critical and we mix like oil and water. Although he has had several gatherings and parties at his home, I have yet to see an invitation sent my way. I don't feel obligated to invite him but some friends say I should since he and my friend are rather close since he moved to the city we currently live in a few years back. Should I give in and let him come or should I ban him from the festivities?

Do we really need political correctness, couldn't people just appreciated that people don't want to be offended by certain words. Couldn't people just have consideration for others and just be polite, instead of being PC. Or am I wrong? I know that it is there to protect people from becoming offended, but now a days some subjects are so PC that people won't speak about certain subjects as they are deemed as taboo.

I have an old friend whom I haven’t had much contact with over the past several years due to respect/trust issues, sent me an invitation to her daughter’s communion. I have sent presents in the past out of good will to the little girl and have never received a thank you from the parents or the child. I understand the child is not at fault. Due to other plans, I can’t attend the party (phew). I wasn’t sure if I should send a card with money, just a card or nothing at all. Should I continue being the nice guy or tell them non-verbally that the gravy train stops here?

Honestly it seems everybody plays the victim card somewhere. Always saying things like "I am fat because my parents put too much food on the table when I was little". People are always willing to blame someone else but never take any responsibility themselves. Why is this in American Culture. What ever happened to the days of people taking responsibilty and not blaming it on a sickness or hardship or other problems or people?

How do you handle snobby co-workers? You know the kind that talk about you the minute you turn your back. The kind that talk down to you or like your 2 yrs old by saying "Oh I like your hair..." I'm sorry but my work place hired a young girl right out of college to be our public relations manager and this girl is a snob! I'm almost positive that she said something rude when she took my photo id but I couldn't catch it.. she said it under her breath.. l cringe going into work but I need the money.

Hi. I live with my sister and dad (divorce). Me and my sister get along ok (we have the occasional sibling fights, but thats about it). Lately she seems to be following the trend of low-rise jeans. Frankly I wouldn't care, except she's ALWAYS SHOWING HER BUTT OR HER UNDERWEAR!

Honestly, some days if say we are doing spring cleaning, I'll unintentionally get half mooned at by her or find out what color underwear she is wearing. I feel tempted to yell "crack kills" or make fun of her underwear, something like that.

Real reason though, I care for my sister and she being 16, I do not want other guys (or older men) to look at her as a sex toy.

How should I convince her to stop wearing low risers, or at least get a belt? If I can see what color her underwear is and what brand it is WHILE she's standing, or if I can see her butt...that's a problem.

*Sigh* Seriously I am tired of seeing her underwear/crack...

Thanks!
