  • I think my teacher made a racist comment?

    In class we are making an essay and poster over a topic that interests us. I chose the culture of Mexico. I personally think my teacher is really nice and laid back but today left me a little confused. When she came to ask me what my topic was I told her my topic and she answered " well all you need to put is that its the place where people go get wives that will cook and clean for them, thats pretty much it". When she answered that I was really surprised and kind of felt bad honestly. I never expected her to answer that especially since she really likes me. I wasnt sure if she was joking or not. What do I do? I kind of weary of doing my topic though even though Mexico's culture is so interesting!

  • centipede bite at store?

    When i came back from work, i found my sister on the bed with her foot as red as a tomato and the size of her head. She says that a large centipede bit her in the store while she was looking through the clothing racks. It is a large well know chain store. After a few minutes she fainted. The store was 2 mintues from closing and she says that the employees seemed annoyed because they wanted to leave so they just gave her a number to call and asked her to make her final purchase and leave. Is this legal?

  • I don't want to be friends anymore?

    I have a friend, lets call him Bob. Bob has been my friend for 3 years. At first we were really good friends. Bob would say really dumb stuff once in a while but I wouldn't mind, I'd just laugh a bit. He invites to his house a lot, and when i say a lot I mean A LOT. At first I would go all the time but then I got to be too much. I actually care about my grades and I like being healthy. Bob on the other hand is very obese and is failing every class. He looks like an ogre. When I would tell him I couldn't go he would make a big deal out of it. He would tell me that he knew I didn't want to come and sometimes he would ask me If I even wanted to go. Like always I would tell I was busy because i was. By the way Bob is extremely immature which is partly why I don't want to be friends anymore. The other day we were at a church retreat and our host was talking to our group, he leaned over and told me " Ask the host If I can shove my pen up his A$$". I just ignored him the whole retreat and hung out with another friend because he was really irritating me. At school he started hanging out with the bad crowd a few months ago so I starting sitting with my other friends (My other friends hate Bob). When ever his friends skip school he comes and sits at our table and says " Well everyone else is gone so I'll just sit with you today". I now ignore him but what bothers me is that my other friends walk away if he sits with us. They really don't like him and they always tell me " I can't believe a person like you would talk to such a person". Bob is overly immature and always makes really sexual jokes that go way to far. They really bother me. He is a bully and bullies people that he doesn't like. Thats what bothers me the most. He recently started bullying one of my friends because his gangbanger friend is his cousin and doesn't get along with him. When I tell him to stop and get get along with my friends he says it was their fault (How is it their fault? They don't even talk to him). Bob has a strong inclination toward Screamo music. i personally don't listen to Screamo but that doesn't mean I hate it. I listen to Rock (Rock n Roll, 80s). When ever I listen to my music he says Its lame and that screamo is better. I need help making a decision. Is it really worth being friends?

  • Am I infected with chicken pox?

    I know this isn't the category to put it in but the health category doesn't get many answers. I went to my friend's house and his brother had chicken pox. I wasn't around his brother very much. But yesterday my friend texted me and told me he started with the chicken pox. Am I going to get the chicken pox? I've never had them before.

  • What to say when handing in a job application?

    I went to Dairy Queen about an hour ago and filled out an application. When I was going to hand it in, the employees said to hand it in to the manager but that she would not be here for another hour. I waited an hour but she did not show up so I have decided to go in about an hour. What should I say when handing in my application? Anything special? Or should I just hand it in and say something like "Hello ma'am, I came in to turn in a job application I completed earlier today". Please help! Past experiences are greatly appreciated!

  • should we stop being friends?

    I have a friend that I have known for 4 years. We were really good friends but I really don't understand what is going on. I used to go to this house very often but I turn him down now becausd of what I have noticed. I have noticed that he has started hanging out with bad people at school. We used to hangout at school everyday but he has ditched me ever since another of our friends moved. At school he has no idea who I am. Ever since he started hanging out with the crackheads he pretends like I don't exist at school. I pass by him and his friends in the hallways and he pretends not to see me. I have gotten into a new group of friends at school who I actually really like alot. I am a very calm, funny and family oriented person so I seek people who have these values. When ever I hang out with my new group his new friends tease me and he also joins in which really makes me mad. To add to this, I have a religious class on Wednesday and he is in my class. During the class he talks to me alot and actually gets along with the group im in. he invited me to his house last Wednesday so I went and i stayed there a while. The next day at school he completely shunned me. I really don't understand, should i just keep a distance or conpletely destroy the friendship? Any advice or personal thoughts are greatly appreciated

  • Please help me i need some advice?

    Hello, well here it goes. Ever since I was in 1st grade I was very lonely. I would spend all my time alone. I never felt bad about myself, i was only a kid. I remember i would sit under the playground equipment and watch everyone play around. I didn't really care I was lonely and probably didn't even realize it. All I cared about was making good grades to become a dentist and go home to see my dog. I reached 5th grade and I still had no one to talk to but It didn't bother me one bit. I then entered middle school and I began to feel uncomfortable. I saw people having fun with friends and I began to feel a little left out. I tried making friends but I was always the one that would occasionally get left out so I decided to give up on making friends. I spent my day in the library reading books about Italy. I was very interested in Italian culture ( I now learned the language and speak it fluently). I did this to avoid the lunchroom because I felt an uncomfortable feeling there but I was not sure what it was. I dreaded the rides home because I would remember my whole day during the ride. I wasn't very sure why I felt that way. I would get home and feel really good because I would be away from school and I would get to see my dog. I was really attached to my dog and we got along great. I could tell my dog really liked me because he would always get really overjoyed when I got home. In reality he was my only true friend. So then high school started. My freshman year was horrible. I was picked on by others probably because I was quiet and vulnerable. My dog passed away that year so I felt extremely lonely and dead inside. I felt like there was no longer any happiness since my only friend died. My parents are very supportive but I didn't want to worry them. I would feel like a bad person if I ever made my parents worry about me. I would spent my whole lunch period in the library just sitting there and feeling like a complete faliure. Sophmore year was by far the best year of

  • does making others laugh satisfy you?

    I used to get bullied a lot for being really quiet. As I grew I was always put down and insulted by others. One of the few ways I feel better is when I make others laugh. It really satisfies me. It makes me feel good because I dont want their lives to be as sad as mine so I try to make others happy. Does making others laugh make you feel good?

  • Parents are forcing me to be Catholic please help?

    My family is all Catholic. They believe in the Sacraments such as Confirmation and so on. I personally lead to an agnostic lifestyle, I mean I believe in the Catholic saints and things like that but I do not believe in organized religion. I have gotten in big trouble with my parents because I have not done anything to finalize my Confirmation. The parish my parents go to forces every Confirmation candidate to do 50 hours of community towards the church (food stands, cleaning the church, kitchen etc). I personally think that the church just uses us candidates so they won't have to spend any money on workers. My parents have noticed, specifically my mom, that I don't put any emphasis towards Confirmation. I don't want to tell my mom I don't want to keep on following the Catholic religion because she would get furious (she is already mad enough about Confirmation).

    I kind of don't even want to get confirmed. Please someone help me, I am really confused.
