I got a free zippo in the mail from Marlboro and thought it was pretty cool. Now my boyfriend teases me every time I use it saying "oh you're big and bad" or "you're butch". I am like, whoever said it was for guys? I am a very feminine woman by the way and yes I know smoking is terrible for me, but I just want your opinion on the zippo.

In your school what would the consequences be if you did this? On the last day of school I am going to walk into the teachers lounge with a big box of doughnuts, greet teachers by their first names pour myself a cup of coffee, sit down at the table with my leg slumped over the other and act like one of them and just randomly butt into conversations and agree with things they are saying.

I guess they have no control over there own lives or aren't happy and have to be rude to everyone else!! What ever floats your boat!! To the ones that are nice, keep it up because theres very few of you!

At a party when there is 7up and sherbet scoops in a punch bowl are you supposed to take some of the sherbet or is it just there to keep it cold and add flavor to the 7up as it melts?

Do you reject them?

Do you put them in but never contact them?

Is there an "acquaintance" section?

What if you really don't want to be associated with them due to their politics, their beliefs, or how they treat your mutual friends?

I asked my Mom what she would like to do on Mothers Day, I said anything you like. She told me she wants to go to the cemetery to give flowers to her Mom and my dad who are buried there and then go out to eat at a nearby restauarnt.
Its her wedding anniversary to on Mothers Day...
We never did this before, I just find it depressing. I wanted to take her to a lunch in the park and shopping. But i just said ok and didn't argue. Should i just say nothing and go along with this?

I quit smoking over four years ago. I now find that I constantly argue with my partner because I can't stand the smell of smoke when she's smoking.

I really have a problem with smoking now I find everything about it disgusting.

She calls me a hypocrite as I was once a smoker.

Am I a hypocrite?

The way I see it is that I was smart enough to make a choice to quit because I saw it for what it was.

Disgusting, and unpleasant for people around you.

If you smoke it should be done only where it doesn't choke-out other people.

What do other people think on this one..

My mom does that, just to ensure that I'm paying attention to her while she's talking a hole in my head, gossipping about her own children. I don't wanna hear her gossip about my brothers & sisters. I love her & them, but I have better things to do with my time, like study in school so I can make a better living & support my poor family.

I moved them in 2 years this august because they were losing their apt.My wife was not happy with this but knew they were in a desperate situation so she agreed to allow them to move in temporarly.The temp situation has now become 2 years.They have no drive to find a place of their own since they have it so good here and get away with only paying $350/month for both! My mortgage alone runs me $1600/month.The rarely help with paying for food and contribute nothing towards the utilities.They have taken over my family room and have basically forced us to live in our bedrooms.I set their bedroom up with a 27 inch television,stereo,cable,dvd player and vcr to give them a hint yet they refuse to give my family the peace and quiet and together time we deserve since both me and my wife both work a full time and part time job.I have made all the steps for them by sending for apt applications and have sent for the paper work for assisted housing yet they still don't take a hint.I need advice.

Ok.. Here is my situation. My mother in law has never liked anything I have ever bought for her. She never even says "Thank you" after she opens a gift from me. She knows that in my marriage I do all the gift shopping so she always acts like she hates it. I bought her a beautiful diamond necklace for Christmas and she has never even taken it out of the box. I went to over 15 stores to find the right one for her, and I was so hurt that she didnt even say thank you. Now, here is my problem. Obviously, I should get her a gift for Mother's Day, even though I dont want to. I dont want to make my husband look bad by not sending her anything. I have totally run out of ideas and I am tired of shopping for days with no appriciation. What should I get her for Mother's Day?

This may seem like an odd question, but my manager (who happens to be a women) left me a note after finding some new, clean in a package femenine pads in the back of a drawer at work, " TAKE THESE HOME OR PUT THEM AWAY, GROSS!!! NO ONE WANTS TO SEE THAT."

With that said let me explain why I had them at work. I work at a hotel at the front desk. I get all kinds of weird requests at the front desk, but the most common is, by all means is the femenine pad. So I went to the drugstore and I bought some cheap kind so when women ask me, I give them away (I don't even charge for them because being a woman I understand that problem). The only reason I put my name on them is so they wouldn't be tossed thinking it was a lost and found item.


Well now, I'm really upset because I think the note by my manager was rude and sounds like its coming from an ignorant person. I'm a right to be upset?

Last night I was sleeping with my boyfriend when I have a nightmare. During the nightmare, I accidentally bit him.

However I didn't really realized it because he keep one arm behidn his back most of the time and I was really sleepy at the time.

So I only found out when I woke up this morning to find his arm wrapped up with bandage that have blood stain. I feel so bad about this. Especially since he was incredible nice and sweet about it and more worried about me than himself. He even let me sleep with my head rest on his chest for the night right after he got bit.

So I would like the best way to apologize him. Keep it PG rated please. Thanks.

so today, i attended to some folks for dinner. they bought $87 worth of food and only tipped me 5. I go to the gentleman and asked him if my service was ok. he said i was ok, but i then went to ask if it really was because he barely scratched the %15 gratuity fee. he said it was ok and that hell come back. i was so furious because the tip is not affecting me but my coworkers who work for those tips as well. how can i prevent this from happening? i.e. how can i make the person give more tip because we dont get paid by the hour but by the tip. on a side note: if youre going to barely tip at a restaurant, learn how to cook but dont waste our time coming to a restaurant if youre not going to tip.
