He smokes non stop about 50 a day,and my lungs HURT if I walk out of my bedroom. Im staying in my room with the window OPEN all the time. How can I approach this subject, smokers are selfish idiots, who get so defenseless if you question their obsession with killing themselves and pulling everyone down with them.

And what can I do to stop this vile stench permeating my innocent nostrils and asphyxiating me? I am moving out when the lease is up as I also hate his guts.

why is it so acceptable for people to message and email each other and use only partial words? it's so unprofessional ,feels almost disrespectful and just looks plain ignorant. for example"i think dat B da truth, cuz its what evry1 thinkz anywayz."
is the education system failing everyone so badly? or is that the cool thing to do now?...look like an idiot, get more street cred?

I am from Egypt. I come to America to try fine dining. I go to fancy restaurant and when check come it say "Tip:" but space was too small to write any good advice. So I write, "Line too short".

Waitress come out and yell at me saying she need buy diapers! I say, "I guess you need get back to working!"

Why are waitresses so rude? It's not my fault the lines are too short!

and they said it was disgusting. To me, it just seemed logical.
What is your opinion?
(Obviously, I defecate on the toilet).

I share an office with a lazy and dishonest co-worker. She has the nerve to actually falls asleep at her desk! She burps loudly and just the sound of her voice puts me in an awful mood! I just found out that this co-worker has been adding additional hours on her timecard that she did not really work for the week, and I'm sure it's not the first time. It really irks me because I'm honest and account for my hours accurately. Our boss' office is not near ours so she does not know when this co-worker comes and goes. I feel strongly that I should notify the boss of what's been going on but I don't know how I should approach the boss about it. I feel like my boss should be made aware of the situation. Any suggestions?

life, like, whether or not you wanna keep being single, etc. I've met a lot of people as said above. They're really annoying. And, they know that they've crossed the line into other's privacy. But, they keep pushing.

There's one day, such and such people were just so obnoxious. They're really slutty. They just kept asking me about my own privacy although i'd tried to say to them very politely to just mind their own business. But, they just kept pushing and pushing. They did that for like again and again and again. It seemed and seems FOREVER!!! Once, i said sth very rude about their behaviour that went really over board. They made their faces as if i was the one who did mistake or sth. And at that point, they really pissed me off. And i thought to myself "What!!?!?!?!? you said i made the mistake?? This is my own privacy!!" Gee...if you were me, what'd you do about this? Please help!!! 10 points for those who can answer best! Thank you in advance. ;)

Recently on a long airplane ride I was seated next to an obnoxiously talkative man. I was obviously immersed in a book but he asked me a bazillion personal questions such as my AGE and kept commenting on my small stature. Is this acceptable airplane chatter or would you say he's downright rude? How would you have handled this situation?

When my fiance and one of my best friends are around, they tend to just listen and only say something when they really feel a need to. They are looked at as laid back, mellow, smart,etc. I tend to be more conversational but find that people sort of poo-poo me sometimes and have less respect. How do I go about changing this without people thinking I am trying to "keep information" from them. to go from being a talker to being more quiet.. which I prefer anyway! I am not as outgoing as people think! Hope this makes sense!! :)
