Funny (but true) story about this. Had a buddy I used to work with. So we''re all at lunch one day and he says he had to go to the emergency room over the weekend.

Being the concerned people we are, we inquired as to what caused the visit. He told us that he was at his in-laws on Saturday, and he had to drop a deuce.

So, he heads upstairs to the bathroom and takes care of business. Afterwards, he goes in their sink cabinet and sees a stack of wipes. He sataes he's a fan of baby wipes, so he gives himself a few sheets and gets to sanitizing.

He also gave the TMI that as it was a particularly 'dirty' deposit, he got up in there and cleaned it good. Well, a few seconds later, his donut was on fire. Sure enough, the box was clearly labeled 'Clorox wipes'.

So, he comes running downstairs half naked screaming like a school girl and it's him and his father-in-law sitting at the e.room. Well, the father-in-law was sitting.

The killer of it all? This kid was a highly paid Analyst. You know, people paid to pay attention to detail. Again, being the concerned co-workers we were...we cracked up for hours.

There isn't an iPod big enough, as all of my CDs are ripped in Apple Lossless (21,026 tracks, 543GB).

BTW, if you'd like to view my CD collection, here it is.

Very impressive, but you ought to put a "search" botton there on your library page.

5. Burping in public. Yes, if one slips out by accident, you should apologize, feel somewhat embarrassed, and move on. Restaurants are the worst; I've gotten up and got loud with people before for doing it. It's just rude.

6. Cell phones at the dinner table. Whether it's at home, restaurant, etc. They way I think about it: In 1984, when you went out to eat (those of you who are older), you did not bring a 2,000 foot extension phone cord with you. No reason your meal should be interuppted (exception: emergencies or bad dates) by mindless chatter.

Ok, I'm gonna stop before you guys think I stay locked in a room and keep poop in jars.

based on this post i would guess you're at least 60-65? #3? seriously? part of the reason she is your ex? that is beyond hardcore lol i prefer to shut them but won't let it ruin my day if one or two are open.

#5 can be a cultural thing. in a multicultural world i would suggest you get with the times, it ain't the 50s anymore! yes it's rude if someone is being obnoxious, but sometimes it needs to be done.

#6 fair enough, but i answer the phone if its my mom, dad or one of my brothers. it could be urgent, if it's not, i'll chat for a minute or two tops and tell them i will call back later.

Unfortunately, there's no way to search. That was created with Delicious Library. They really need a new template. The one on the iPhone is so much better.

It depends on the situation and restaurant for me. If I'm having lunch with my roommate at a sports bar or fast food restaurant and my phone goes off I'll likely answer it. However, if I'm eating with my family I probably won't answer the phone, and if I'm at a classy restaurant I won't answer it under any circumstances. I'll text the person explaining I'm at a restaurant but won't talk on the phone at a table.

2. I have to have my towels folded in threes in the house. For example, the dish towel must be folded in 1/2 length wise on both sides, and then folded over the cabinet door, rack, etc.

4. At a restaurant, I can't leave a mess for the wait staff. I know; it's their job, but at the end of the meal, I stack my plates, pick up the used sugar packets, and put it all in a pile for them. God, I'm starting to sound like I have a sickness lol.

Except for number 2, all of these apply to me as well.

Although I've been guilty of number 6 numerous times. If I'm out with a bunch of friends I don't mind pulling out my phone to answer a text (I try not to take calls at the table). If I'm at a more upscale restaurant, unless I'm expecting an important call, I'll silence my phone.
