I don't have a problem with people arguing that their opinion on the matter really changed (although I disagree with it and think it's bs). But the guy said they covered it. Dismissing sources as having an ax to grind when the guy said they covered it is a bit far out. I now have to go for the weekend so thankfully I will be missing the rest of this thread. goodbye everyone :)

So when people have multiple articles with sources we're misinformed, those people don't fact check, so on. But one magazine (with no link, of course) that supports your opinion is true. Okay..

You did a great job of ignoring her point, which was people and businesses have always paid for things that go against their conscience.

I don't think they're being rude just to be rude. I think they're rude to waiters because they look down on them, for whatever reason.

I'm sure this is true for many people but I've also met many people who seemed perfectly nice until I went out to eat with them or went shopping or something. I know people who are angels to everyone until they go to a restaurant and they're always rude to waiters. It's pretty strange to me.

I'm pretty surprised that there aren't any dots in the carolinas.

Yes, this is what I thought. But people are linking to graphics of where creationism is taught as if it's the same. I've never actually heard of there being a big battle about YE being taught in public schools.

Hmm, I never knew this. I never really thought about it and assumed teaching creationism most often meant teaching OE creationism.

Is teaching creationism always teaching YE though?

Lol, that was what I was about to quote to you. It all seems pretty on point with the research I've done before.

I of course could be missing something but I've never heard of YE in Islam. There's a lot about Islam/the Quran being very compatible with science.

House Hunters annoys me to no end. Every single time there's 2 closets, someone makes a joke about the wife using both of them. Ha ha! Women have more clothes! Good joke. It's totally not as if women are expected to look different a lot of the time when men can wear the same clothes a lot and no one will notice. Nooooope. Good one guys. Please repeat that every episode.

I never thought about this, but I've heard it too with the hairdressers. Never waitress. I'm sure it happens, but it's always been hairdresser for me, nothing else. And it's often from stay at home moms. Now as a stay at home mom I obviously don't think there's anything wrong with being one, but why is that inherently better than being a hairdresser?

I believe you can request the item bought be made private? I know it's possible to have it as private because in my listed feedback some of the items bought are private. Yep. I bought several things recently and each one left feedback on me. It said things like quick payment, easy to deal with, so on. Never knew they did that!

No clue. I mean I don't think any wait staff has the right to spit in your food or anything, but doesn't it cross people's minds when they're yelling at the servers for no good reason?

I'll never understand people who are rude to people just because they have a certain job. I've seen people be awful to waitresses, cashiers, people on the phone, so on... It's like they don't realize that they're humans with feelings too.

:iagree: :iagree: :iagree: :iagree:

I wouldn't let it go. A hotel isn't just about a room. When they offer things like a pool I expect to get them along with a nice experience.

This kinda came off as acting like anti YE people haven't looked at the other side of the debate. They have, and believe it's wrong. I don't think most anti YE people haven't even thought about it. I've read their supposed evidence, and I don't agree with it at all. I view their evidence like the evidence from people who believe we never landed on the moon. Each thing can be proved wrong, I don't need to think about it in my day to day life. I'm not really offended by it because I can easily disregard it, but I see how some people who spent their whole life working on the thing could be offended by someone else coming along and saying nothing happened.

If you look here it says: Physics A First Course: Grades 8-10 Sorry if you wanted an answer from personal experience or something! Also I can't take italics off. Cool.

I don't even know what you're talking about now. You seem to be responding to something LucyStoner said even though you quoted the OP, Alicia64.

I think your perspective is valued. I was interested in everyone's response to this. Those who thought she should hide the cat, those who were LL's and shared their perspective, those who told her to come clean, so on. I do not think anyone needs to be rude about their response. She asked a question and you replied as if she was arguing something. You also seem to be taking out anger about past tenants on her. She made a mistake, and admitted it. Can that not be the end?

She was asking a question, not arguing anything. You are seriously being rude at this point, and Alley certainly doesn't deserve to be on the receiving end of it.

Yep, I've had this happen to me too. People are amazing to say the least. Honestly, I would end the friendship. That could mean quietly stopping talking to her or telling her directly. Either way I don't think people should feel obligated to stay in situations/friendships/relationships that are toxic for them.

TranquilMind, I'm sure you don't mean to be rude. But your posts are coming off as very aggressive.
