Does it drive anyone else crazy?

Lose - Like to lose a game or a bet
Loose - my tie is loose, breathing room

Okay, here is the problem. My birthday was yesterday and my boyfriend's sister, (whom I also consider to be my friend)
came out with my boyfriend and I to the ESPN zone to play and have some drinks. She didn't play one game and the whole time we were sitting down eating and drinking she texted on her cell phone continuously. I was getting pretty upset when she said "God why do these people keep texting me?!" So I said (very calmly) "Why don't you just tell them you're busy?" She said "I have been" I said "Then why don't you stop answering them?". She never did stop. I shrugged that off until later when she got an attitude with me because my friend called and hurt my feelings. She told me to stop with the attitude. How rude is it that people have the brass rocks to tell you to stop being rude when they are inconsiderate themselves?

Should I bring something i.e. a cake, or donuts, or something else in the afternoon from the bakery? I don´t have time to cook something since I meet her in an hour?

I have a new cell number, about two months old. Within the past week someone who obviously knew the last person to have the same number has tried to contact me. To anyone this has ever happened to, what did you do? How often does this happen? I have no desire to play pranks on this person, as she contacted me innocently enough, wanting me to go on a blind-date with her friend but how do I break it to her that this 'great' friend of hers, didn't let her know that he'd changed his number?

I am writing a paper about cultural influences in infants and toddlers. : ) Thank you! Sorry to ask, just always better to be well informed! Thanks!

Just curious, if you are Black or African-American, which do you prefer? I am white, or Caucasian, or an eighth German, or German-Irish-Scottish-Welsh-English. I personally don't care which ya call me. : )

Have a good day!

Why or why not?
Does it matter what the consistency of the booger is?
How about color?
Nostril angle?

The mother of my friend passed away about two weeks ago and I didn't see him immediately after so I didn't see him again until we were both drinking at a party and I didn't think it would be appropriate. I am considering sending him a text/card. Is it better to do it late or just not bring it up? I mean theres no way he isn't thinking about it I'm thinking maybe getting a card would brighten his day.

i ask my self why mu
but when u see a jew men with a long beard pepl say he iz just letin it grom.

when u see a muslim gurl with a hijab u say why she gota wear that. pepl dont think iz her choice they think she iz forst to wear it.


i am a muslim sister and i wear my hijab cuz its my choice
no one told me to wear it. i am not all about my beuty just my brain. pepl stare and laugh and say why is she coverin her hair? y iz it that when pepl see a muslim guy with a long beard and head wrap they think he iz a terist and when they see a jew or other guys that r practicin other religion
have a relgouis close on they think is jus their culturel believe

well let me tell u somthing peple that dont noe anything about muslims
What do you see when you look at me
Do you see someone limited, or someone free
All some people can do is just look and stare
Simply because they can't see my hair
Others think I am controlled and uneducated
They think that I am limited and un-liberated
They are so thankful that they are not me
Because they would like to remain 'free'

Well free isn't exactly the word I would've used
Describing women who are cheated on and abused
They think that I do not have opinions or voice
They think that being hooded isn't my choice
They think that the hood makes me look caged
That my husband or dad are totally outraged
All they can do is look at me in fear
And in my eye there is a tear

Not because I have been stared at or made fun of
But because people are ignoring the One up above
On the day of judgment they will be the fools
Because they were too ashamed to play by their own rules
Maybe the guys won't think I am a cutie
But at least I am filled with more inner beauty
See I have declined from being a guy's toy
Because I won't let myself be controlled by a boy

Real men are able to appreciate my mind
And aren't busy looking at my behind
Hooded girls are the ones really helping the Muslim cause
The role that we play definitely deserves applause
I will be recognized because I am smart and bright
And because some people are inspired by my sight
The smart ones are attracted by my tranquility
In the back of their mind they wish they were me

We have the strength to do what we think is right
Even if it means putting up a life long fight
You see we are not controlled by a mini skirt and tight shirt
We are given only respect, and never treated like dirt
So you see, we are the ones that are free and liberated
We are not the ones that are sexually terrorized and violated
We are the ones that are free and pure
We're free of STD's that have no cure

So when people ask you how you feel about the hood
Just sum it up by saying, 'Baby its all good'

Im 18 and at the store I work at, a lady today asked if I was the owner. Do I look old or something? I mean i think i would be odd if an 18 year old owned a store!! And a few weeks ago, I was helping a couple pick out a baby bag and they asked me if I had kids......i think 18 is too young to have kids! What's wrong with me?

Why do people even bother commenting if they don' wanna help? Some situations I go through, I REALLY need helpful advice.

I'm strapped for cash. My cousin and I rarely see each other, not even for Christmas (but I see the rest of her family). I can't remember a time we have both exchanged presents. But, this year I'd like to buy her children something now that they are getting older and like toys.

Should I? Or not? Maybe buy her and the boyfriend something small?

Mine is when people don't have basic manners, like when you hold the door open for someone and they don't even acknowledge you or say thank you!!!

What's the deal. Shut up and wait until I finish talking. And servers in restaurants. Nobody writes the order down. Half the time they get the order wrong. I will order the simplest things and they will screw it up. You have to fight to get what you what. They won't just shut up, listen to what you what, and bring you what they say. They wanna "take charge," push the order so they can save 2 seconds, and then mess everything up and get it wrong. We have a service based economy, run by people who have no concept of how to serve others. Or am I am just foolish to think that competent, intelligent people take those kind of jobs? Is it just that people who have their act together don't take service industry jobs? Is that it?

just asking for opinions. i know some people think it's rude because basically the other person is asking/demanding for a congratulatory comment, which is sort of like fishing for compliments...

My little 6 yr old wanted to invite her entire class for a b'day party. There will also be the parents and some siblings as well. Being that I'm budget conscious, is it rude or poor etiquette to not hand out party favors? From past experience, it just ends up on the floor or the landfill.

I plan on feeding all 54 guests (27 children/ 27 adults) as well. There will be appetizers, pizza, cake and bottled juices/water/sodas. The venue is at an indoor playnasium, where they charge $7 per child admission.

So, party favors or not?
