When people almost walk into me and I apologize. What are you doing, self? Stop that!

If you think that's bad, I've walked into an object (a chair?) and said "Oh, I'm sorry, honey." :lol: I must've thought it was one of the kids at the daycare I worked at.
Exactly.The_Brown_Fox said:When my ride says to be ready at 10:30 AM, and then at 10:14 I'm told we gotta go RIGHT NOW, or I'll get left behind. So then I have to stop what I'm doing on the computer, and properly shut down the computer as fast as I can.
Actually I'm pretty sure hearing "I love you, Henri" would weird me out so much I might laugh. I need to get in touch with my emotions more, by practicing yoga and things maybe.SweepTheLeg said:Saying the name once, makes it sound more serious. "I love you, Henri" over "I love you, cuddlebuns." but saying it repeatedly every sentence, I get your point.
disclaimer: I don't love Henri.
I think it depends on how it's used...like ONCE in a conversation, at the beginning, say, a "Good to see you Henri! Did you get that crate of Apples I sent you?" would be perfectly cool... but yeah, I've noticed when people are arguing in particular, especially online, some people tend to start every sentence with the person's name...or end it with their name. "you have to agree with this, don't you, Henri?" I think it's a form of passive aggression.FrenchKitty said:The weirdest I have is this one: I hate it when people say my name during conversation.
Anyone else finds it deeply condescending?? "yes, "henri", but you must understand that it is in your best interest! you know what I mean, "henri"?"
i mean, stop repeating my name like i'm too stupid to understand you.
argh.
disclaimer: my name isn't henri.
Yeah! Kinda sad. It reminds me of an old friend, who when I called him, I'd always begin with the conventional pleasantries... small talk really, but the kind that most every normal human begins a conversation with... but this friend would always interrupt my greetings with "what do you want?" :lol: Now this wasn't an angry rejection thing with him, he REALLY, APPARENTLY wanted a summation of the reason I was calling. I'd even tell him sometime, "Norm, for fucking fuck's sake, it's conventional to greet people when you call them...life doesn't have to be all germane data flow!" And then he'd laugh and say, yeah, you're right," but next time I would call, it'd be the same thing all over. lolFrenchKitty said:Oh another one: you think , happily, "hey i'm in a good mood today! oh i haven't called my uncle henri for a few weeks, i think i will do that!"
*ring ring*
-yes this is henri
-hey, it's me!!!!!
-.........you? well helloooo, I thought you were dead . Why are you calling NOW precisely? In need of something?"
good mood and affection: killed .
For me it can even equate with cutting you out of my life until the day one of us dies.

If you touched the handle to flush the toilet, if you wiped, if you're in a public bathroom and if you've touched the handle on any of the doors, wash your hands! Doesn't matter if you peed or just went in there to fart. :naughty:The_Brown_Fox said:I just liked someone's FB status about washing your hands after you pee...lol. I know I've mentioned it before in this thread, but.....
That deliciously scented hand soap is right there in front of you, and you won't even PRETEND to wash your hands for 15 seconds?
"But...I pee without even putting my hands on my dick." Good for you! Wash your hands anyway, nasty. :lol:
