Now if I can do that when I feel like death warmed over, why can't people do that when they're feeling perfectly fine? Seriously, how hard can it be?
It's great that you were so pleasant when obviously sick, but you probably gave at least several people the flu. Was there someone else who could have done that run for you so you could have stayed home and kept some people well?

Being exposed to germs is much better than not...it helps to mature the immune system

Well, my wife was out all day at the office, I touched nobody, used germ killer on my hands, and only used my debit card. So didn't touch anybody, breath on anybody, etc. Doubt I did.

"Dating" no ring, no commitment, no bringing home the bacon. I am right now sitting on the soda g-friends couch typing this. I'm not singular, dating one doesn't mean you can't date two, three...except a lot of women figure dating means exclusive from hello.

And yesterday was monday.

This is absolutly true. Of course they're thinking Malaria, and TB, but we're talking regular everyday stuff. And I so enjoy the responce from ^^^ because he reminds me of Monk anyway.

Last week there was snow and it was dark and a peroxyded blonde in a brand new MiniAustin (the new version) failed to brake when I was crossing the Pedestrian Xing, so I made her brake to let me pass through, and of course she was unhappy which I can understand, maybe she was in a hurry, she lowered down her window and snapped "what's up, there's no pedestrian crossing here?" which I can also understand since there was snow covering the pavement she didn't see the white stripes (not the group lol) so I removed a little of snow with my feet and showed her the markings, she just stared at me, end of story, we each went our own way and then I heard loud behind my back "son of a *****!"

The lady clearly wasn't done shopping! So now she's ranting around about how the dumb girl started checking her out.

I wasn't in a big hurry so I said "it's ok, take your time." She kept growling about how dumb the girl was... And then another customer showed up and the girl called for another cashier. The cashier was an old friend of mine Mrs.M. who I hadn't seen in a long time.

So I was like "Hi ---- how have things been?", she said "Patttttt It's so good to see you, I still owe you some money from some stuff I sold!" So she bought my soda for me and paid me $20. And I grabbed a rose off the counter, bought it and handed it to the other poor checkout girl, who was shocked and said "You looked like you needed one after a rough day" She smiled broadly, then I turned to Mrs. Behelzabub and said "You have a wonderful night maam!

Just like a mento's commercial!

Depends on my mood and the circumstances. And what I think will bother them the most. Also am I going to have to deal with them on a daily basis. I dont like bullies so in that case I would have spoken up too.

When I was younger I was a lot nicer. Now Im old and crabby. I love getting older. Im looking forward to being crabby and eccentric. Its great.
