Etiquette - May 2007

For me it,s when i,m in a cue at the post office,shop or somewhere and the person behind stands really close to you so close you feel them breathing on your neck ,then you move foward and they instantly move foward too,there toes are right up against my heels.

What is the proper etiquette to pulling up your zipper in a public area when it is down for males or females? I try to always remember to pull my zipper up before leaving the house, it's one of my worst nightmares if I go out and my zipper is down and it has only happened about 5 times or so. But it is embarrassing. If I'm in a room with other people or public area I usually hide my problem til I am away from those people and then I pull my zipper up. But can't I just pull it up without having to be alone, though this is very awkward? Please, what seems to be the proper etiquette when it comes to this? Thanks.

.... look at other people's shopping and judge them based on what they're purchasing? ;-)

How would you feel if you were shopping last minute. You had a deadline for a wedding so you did not have time to dress up as you usually would to go shopping. So you don't look your best
When you go to pay for the purchases the cashier brings out the counterfeit marker and marks the 20 , 10, 5 and 1 dollar bill you gave her to see if they are counterfeit? I have never in my life ever had someone to mark that small of denominations of money!

It seems that in some cases males are raised with little concept of modesty. I remember that as high school baseball players, a friend of mine and I stopped at his house after practice. My friend undressed for a shower, and his mom came into his bedroom with towels. After my friend was done, he made no effort to cover up; his mother apparently saw nothing unusual in the fact that he was naked. Things were different in my house, although I recall that my sister and I were treated quite differently in that regard

As we may know the recent massacre at Virginia where 33 people lost their lives was the deadliest in US history.America having easy access to guns and ammunition and carrying out atrocities on their friends and classmates--the Columbine school massacre in 1999 is one that also stand out, though fewer people died than ata Virginia Tech....

How do you think about the gun problem in America:--tell me the truth

Should the average American be allowed to carry a gun?Why?

or violence is part the definition in American society?( the sum total of its art -movies,literture,hisorical identity..etc)
(or you can watch the documentary Bowling for Columbine )

It all started when she was hired to decorate an entire apartment of newly weds, but unfortunatly she was very bitter about something she keep babeling about i don't know. She didn't get her work done because she was being such a les about her work. Well she didn't show up on time at the apartment she was decorating and I was forced to make small talk with these two love birds and they asked me what ideas I have for their nursery so I told them and they loved it, I ended up designing the entire apartment because Grace just didn't show up. Well when she finally comes they are telling her how thankful they are and all that crap and she takes all the credit for it. She thinks if Kurnal Sanders was stoped on the street and complimented about his chicken he woudln't say thanks but Ramone made it. She thinks she is Kurnal Sanders but shes not, I am. It was my original recipie. She is Ramone! Am I right or what? Should I quit?

I have a problem with a moron who drives a lifted dodge ram pick up who has no respect for children. We live in a neighborhood in the outskirts of San Antonio and this red neck zooms through our neighborhood, probably going to the same house to buy drugs. I've called the sheriffs' but they didn't do anything. My husband wants to shoot this guy in the a** but I am too afraid since I stay at home taking care of our son. Any suggestions, or do I have to resort to tire slashing or rock throwing?

My friend invited me to go to the salon and get our hair done for promotion and she offered to pay. I don't want to look cheap, but then it was an offer. Should I pay half? All? let her pay it? Should i do something similar and treat her next time? What is the most polite thing to do?

Help - I put it on my cat's collar last night since I've always wanted to marry him instead, and had a mock ceremony. I fell asleep before I took it off. It was gone this morning. I looked all over the house for it, and I can't find it!

What should I tell my husband? Or should I wait to see if it turns up?

It won't be a gag gift.

In the past year (since she got divorced) or so she's really been sleeping around a lot, and I'm worried about her.

She's gotten pregnant (had an abortion), and she's caught an STD.

Do you think an adult toy will help her control herself a bit more?

after i said a commet when i saw this really slow guy walking on crutches, this guy i work with, who's 24, while looking at my breasts, said"i'm surprise you could walk on crutches faster than that guy since all your weight comes to the front"..and he says after wards.. "i'm trying to make a point , dont make fun of people that cant help it"

i asked my friend what this ment and she said he ment since i have big breasts and can't help it, i shouldn't be making fun of a guy walking slow on crutches because he can't help it, but i wonder if that guy also got horny while saying this comment to me, since he did look at my breasts..

he 's known to be a horn dog

I'm not saying this to be hurtful to women. I am currently going to College for a degree in Engineering. The ratio of men to women students in the engineering department is 8 to 1, meaning that for every 8 men, there is only 1 girl. The girls that I'm in classes with do just as good as the men. I'm just curious if women are being told to stay away from engineering by there parents or they are just scared. I know it has nothing to do with your intelligence. If you’re a girl, what do you think the answer to my question is?

I'm a 26 year old indian male. I live in an suburban area with predominantly white american population. In the past year, I've started to notice that kids (from toddlers to roughly 6-7 yr olds) in public places (like the mall, department stores, grocery stores, restaurants) like to get my attention and smile at me. They are usually with their parents. I'm not sure how to respond.
I've smiled and waved back only to get mean looks back from their parents. Am I doing something wrong? I'm just trying to be friendly in return.

If someone types a memo with no mistakes should they be tipped? If the mailman delivers a package right to your front door should he be tipped? Why tip the pizza delivery man when I am already paying $2 for the delivery? Why should some get tipped for doing a good job, some tipped for just doing the job and some don't get any tips at all? So again... why do people tip?
