Other - Society & Culture - 30 August 2006

I lived in the US for 2 years, and it's like this alot in films.
I'm just wondering, do grown American women in their tewnties (or any age above 12) really say Daddy? I know cultures vary, but I started saying Dad aged 9.
Also, if you're saying Mom (the grown-up version), then why stick to Daddy (the childish version?)

I'm not asking to be b*tchy, but as i'm 1/2 American (My Dad's side) I am genuinely interested in whether this actually happens or it's just a silly Hollywood thing.

Yahoo answers isn't 'yahooLetsBeSeriousAllTheTime'

so whats the problem if a question may appear to be stupid?

Maybe the one insulting the question isn't on the same wave length and their answer shows they don't understand.

lighten up people.

i saw a dollar bill on the ground today and i thought about not picking it up.....
then, i walked my dog around the block and came back and it was still there, so i picked it up.

i guess it has to be at least a dollar for me to exert the effort of picking it up....
thanks all!

I just like hearing about fortunate situations in one's life. It would get me into a better mood, maybe a little hopeful.

When asked what race I am, I answer "human." When trying to pinpoint my origins, I say I'm Illinois-American, as I was born in Illinois, as were my parents and grandparents. My ancestors came from so very many countries, and as far as I know, none came from the Caucasus mountains, yet people keep trying to pigeonhole me as caucasian.

If we're all desendants from the Tigrus-Euphrates region, as DNA tracking is discovering, where's the cut-off point? How many generations back do we go to categorize ourselves?

Why can't people accept the fact that I'm just a regular, proud American? If it's a continent they want, can't I just me a North American?

Not the things you hate about your pets but the little things that bug the hell out of you....

So far today mine are;
Automated telephone systems
Rudeness for no reason
People who park so close to your car you can't get out (This is my most annoying pet hate. I have been known to wait for the person to return to their car and have a go at them. It Infuruates me!!!!)

Come on - all false modesty aside. Do you? What rating would you give yourself out of 10.

I'll go first - I think I look pretty good sometimes and can still turn heads in my mid thirties. I'd give myself 7.5.
