Acceptable Etiquette - November 2006

I get angry at my partner because he has a mobile phone but he leaves it at home or he has it on silent and doesnt pick it up. I always say to him "Why do you think its called a MOBILE PHONE? Take it with you!" Maybe I wouldnt be so angry if I didnt rely on my phone too much. I mean, why am I calling him in the first place? Is it really that important? I think the last call I made to him that was semi important was "If you get home before me, can you take the steaks out of the freezer please?"

I really don't remember what happened before mobile phones when you were meeting someone and they were late? I suppose you'd just call their house to see if they have left or not? What if something bad happened on their way to meet you? Then how long would you wait? I think I'd wait half an hour to an hour?


At least back in the days before mobile phones you wouldnt get loud obnoxious people yelling on their phones while in a small enclosed area like on the bus! I can not stand people who yell over the phone and other people are just listening into their conversation. The worst conversation I heard was this absoulte wanker infront of me on the train saying "Yeah, so we going out tonight mate? Can't hear ya, you driving mate? You got the grog? You been drinking mate?" Ohhhh his mate would be a police mans dream arrest.

I mean "yay" to technology. I remember when the first mobile phones came out. I was probably about 8 or 9 they were bricks! By the time I got to high school a third of the girls at school had one so Ive grown up with mobiles. I suppose if I grow up with them I wouldnt know what I would be missing?

I was shaving the other day and looked at my shaver and thought "This thing is getting bigger!". The "moisturising strip" was massive and the blades, well there were three!

Have you seen those ads on TV "Now with 4 blades! Quatro!"

I'm thinking, when will this craziness stop? Will we be seeing "Now with 10 blades as big as your head, shave in just one simple action!"

Whats with those vibrating razors? As if that does anything! I havent tried one but I'm sure they aint anything special. I think they are more dangerous than anything! I'm sure the ladies buy them for other reasons

Do you still lie to your parents?

November 28th 2006 00:50
I'm 26, I live with my partner and I find I still lie to my parents? Maybe because my parents have used guilt to bring me up?

Recently my mother called me and asked why I hadn't called or visited. To be honest I hadnt been bothered! So I made up some pathetic excuse that work has been extremely busy and I have had to stay back etc etc

Do you eat with your mouth opened?

November 24th 2006 00:37
I was waiting in a food court for my mate to return with her lunch. While I was waiting I was just looking around and noticed so many people eating with their mouths opened.

When I was little, my dad used to go off at me if I didnt eat with my mouth closed. It makes lots of sense now because you don't want to see what others are masticating! Intially, I thought it was a cultural thing. I thought, some countries accept chewing with their mouths opened but when I looked around at the crowd it was mostly westerners

TV Preachers? Money Makers?

November 22nd 2006 05:50
Ive been sick lately and the weather has been very warm so its hard to sleep. I get up or stay awake until some ridiculous hour watching really horrible TV.

After feeling like I need Pro-Active Solution, some random hard core American preacher appears on TV. Some of these people are jokes! Are they preaching or asking for ridiculous donation amounts
