~ Do you ever have to tolerate noise levels?

~ Would you allow someone else to cook in your kitchen? ALL of these questions are about family members!

~ Would you allow loud guests to come to your home if they are all coughing?

~ Wouldn't it be wrong to talk outside loudly about 'black' people when you have black people living right by where
you are seated outside?

~ Wouldn't it be wrong to have loud conversations about whom a deceased and dear family member 'had sex with' while
they were alive?

~ Would you allow loud, coughing people into your home ever?

Thanks for coming, I need these answers very much! Have a great week! Not my family, it's my wife's.

~ Do you ever have to tolerate noise levels? - Never had to deal with that. Unless a loud and abusive father counts...

~ Would you allow someone else to cook in your kitchen? - If I had one or talking about the past, very highly unlikely. But certain situations, maybe...

I didn't count a former spouse as that would be different...

~ Would you allow loud guests to come to your home if they are all coughing? - Excluding maintenance I haven't had any guests in any apartment I've lived in 15 years.

~ Wouldn't it be wrong to talk outside loudly about 'black' people when you have black people living right by where you are seated outside? - I don't and wouldn't hang with racist people.

~ Wouldn't it be wrong to have loud conversations about whom a deceased and dear family member 'had sex with' while they were alive? - I can't even imagine.

I do remember having a brief conversation with my brother that our worthless father did cheat on our mother. My mother told me that about a month before she died.

~ Would you allow loud, coughing people into your home ever? - Heck no. I'm very particular with who I associate with. Rude / inconsiderate people like that would have no room in my life...

Thanks for coming, I need these answers very much! Have a great week! - Sounds like a very depressing situation. It's your life, Roosty. You don't have to put up with this unless you want to...

Since you added this after I answered...

I'll still stand with my closing remark that you don't have to put up with it. Family or not you help pay for your housing. Also, it's your health which is both physical and mental.

A lot of germs and rudeness that I wouldn't put up with under any circumstance.

I have very low tolerance for any hassles or conflicts which is why I'd rather be lonely. At least I have my peace of mind...

~ Do you ever have to tolerate noise levels?

Have to? No. But sometimes I can't escape noise.

~ Would you allow someone else to cook in your kitchen? ALL of these questions are about family members!

Oh, yes!! My son is a great cook. My SO cooks pretty good too.

~ Would you allow loud guests to come to your home if they are all coughing?

Not really. I would ask them to stay home till they feel better.

~ Wouldn't it be wrong to talk outside loudly about 'black' people when you have black people living right by where
you are seated outside?

It wouldn't be right to talk about any people sitting close to me.

~ Wouldn't it be wrong to have loud conversations about whom a deceased and dear family member 'had sex with' while they were alive?

I don't discuss other people sex life - dead or alive.

~ Would you allow loud, coughing people into your home ever?

I will tolerate family members and try to help them feel better. Other people would send home.

Thanks for coming, I need these answers very much! Have a great week! Not my family, it's my wife's.

Thank you, roosty!! I didn't know you're married

~ Do you ever have to tolerate noise levels? Only in public places, where a lot of people are talking at the same time. I have a hard time hearing the person I’m with.

~ Would you allow someone else to cook in your kitchen? ALL of these questions are about family members! Sure.

~ Would you allow loud guests to come to your home if they are all coughing? Well, if they’re already there, I probably wouldn’t say anything.

~ Wouldn't it be wrong to talk outside loudly about 'black' people when you have black people living right by where you are seated outside? I would be embarrassed and tell them to shhh.

~ Wouldn't it be wrong to have loud conversations about whom a deceased and dear family member 'had sex with' while they were alive? Awkward.

~ Would you allow loud, coughing people into your home ever? Yes, but then I wouldn’t invite them back.

Thanks for coming, I need these answers very much! Have a great week! Not my family, it's my wife's. Sounds like you need to make excuses that you’re busy next time they want to come. How does wifey feel about them?

Noise- I only tolerate noise related to work, (machinery), never would work in a position that allowed radios or elevator music. I suffer from Hyperacusis, so do not attend loud worship services. But I do attend, and perform instrumental, and vocal classical music events. I treasure my hearing in spite of Tinnitus 100% of the time. (Such as now, totally quiet in the darkness of my remote cabin, but ringing ears are roaring.)

Home- our family homes have been open to any and all guests for generations.(Including the kitchens). We have international guests often. Some guests have stayed 3 yrs. No one has been obnoxious. MIL was a difficult person, but she had mental health barriers that required tolerance and explanation, rather than confrontation. She often stayed for several months and was only difficult 98.5% of the waking hours.

Talk- Murmuring, rumors, sleaze talk not allowed. Only words that edify and encourage. (Family, friend, or foe.... ). Incompetence of professionals (?)... That's a challenge to accept.. - but those are not rumors, they bring sadness to those lives they destroy. (bosses, school administrators, medical professionals, ambulance chasing attorneys...)

Do you ever have to tolerate noise levels?

### Years ago when they were working on a runway on one of the Metro area airports some flights paths had to be changed and it was noisy.

~ Would you allow someone else to cook in your kitchen? ALL of these questions are about family members!

### My wife, myself and an old family friend are allowed.

~ Would you allow loud guests to come to your home if they are all coughing?

### No.

~ Wouldn't it be wrong to talk outside loudly about 'black' people when you have black people living right by where you are seated outside?

### It would be wrong, my wife and I would put a stop to it at once. I don’t care who it is, we ask people who come into our house to have respect. In our culture we tend to have only close family and very good friends come inside our home.

~ Wouldn't it be wrong to have loud conversations about whom a deceased and dear family member 'had sex with' while they were alive?

### I would find that type of conversation wholly inappropriate, would ask to stop talking about the dead’s sexual life.

~ Would you allow loud, coughing people into your home ever?

### Both being elder where we seem to catch just about everything we ask they stay home and give the a rain check.

Thanks for coming, I need these answers very much! Have a great week! Not my family, it's my wife's.

### It’s your home, your safe space and you call the shots not to put up with manure.

### Good luck, mr roosty. All the best to the furry prince.

sure. As long as they're cooking for me.


~ Would you allow loud guests to come to your home if they are all coughing?
probably not. but not all coughs are contagious.


~ Wouldn't it be wrong to talk outside loudly about 'black' people when you have black people living right by where

it would be wrong, rude and disrespectful.


~ Wouldn't it be wrong to have loud conversations about whom a deceased and dear family member 'had sex with' while
they were alive?
dead or alive, I can't imagine a reason to talk about someone's sex life.


~ Would you allow loud, coughing people into your home ever?
probably not but there might be exceptions.
