I am about to get my first tattoo in a couple of years (once I move out of my house and all of that jazz). And, of course, I'm pretty nervous.

I've never been able to relax around needles...although I could tolerate it...but still...so I was wondering...

Was your first tattoo expirence painful to the point of tears or was it peachy keen? Where do you think is the area of the body that'll be the less painful to get a tattoo at?

if you could magically make your bellybutton disappear, would you?

I watched a show about plastic surgery and they talked about how when you get a tummy tuck, they sometimes have to cut out your bellybutton and make you a new one. I was like "Fuck that, I don't need a new bellybutton". Ever since then I've wanted to get rid of mine.

Do you have any friends who have REALLY annoying habits that almost overshadow their good qualities?

A friend of mine is always bashing skinny people and talking about how they're not attractive to her and how only Queen Latifah sized people look healthy and calling me a stick (even though I'm a round size 6-8). It really irritates me! But she's also always dieting and used to be anorexic and bulimic and complaining when she puts on weight. I just want to slap her sometimes and say CHOOSE BITCH!  EITHER SKINNY  PEOPLE ARE UGLY AND YOU'RE HAPPY BEING FAT OR YOU'RE NOT. She also constantly talks about her double D boobs and how much guys love them and how fantastic huge boobs are and wouldn't everyone love to have boobs that big. She also thinks her boss is just jealous of them and that's why she asked her to stop wearing cleavage revealing tops into work.

How can I tell her to STFU about all of this without coming off as the bitch I secretly am?

Assume for a moment that you're walking to your parked car (if you don't have a car pretend you do) in a dark abandoned parking lot in the middle of the night (don't ask why you parked there you just did). As you get to your car a man of average height and build steps out of the shadows demands you give him your keys or he'll shoot you. He has his hand in his pocket but you can't see a gun. There's no one in the general vicinity so yelling for help will do you no good.

In this situation what would you do?

I can't afford any Christmas presents for my friends this year (bad economy and all that jazz). The question is should I ask them not to give me anything, tell them it's optional if they want to get me something (though it would make me feel guilty if they did give me something and I could give something in return), or ask them all if they would rather do a homemade Christmas gift exchange this year (I can bake half way decently but I don't want to put any pressure on anyone to make presents if they don't want to)?

I have a meeting tonight with students. The last time I had a meeting with the same students (class representatives) I brought them all treats in the form of a pastry. But it's kind of a hassle and we feed them tons and tons of pastries every semester. I bet each of them gets at least one pastry every couple weeks (or more often) anyway.

So, should I bring them pastries anyway or just forget about feeding them? The meeting is at 4:00 and should run less than an hour.

Or do you have more creative ideas about what I could feed them that won't require utensils?

I have a couple of Thanksgiving questions I don't think have been asked recently!

I have quite a few friends who haved moved to the U.S. from other countries. They seem really split on whether they celebrate it or not.

Some say, "Eh, even though I'm naturalized, it just isn't part of our tradition. We've never done anything".

Others point out that even though the true history of it is somewhat biased and problematic, part of the "original" spirit of it is moving to a new country, dealing successfully with change, and celebrating with the ones you did this all with. So it applies perfectly. Plus, hello, an excuse to make an awesome feast!

My family, second generation on my mom's side, tends to take the second view. If applicable, what have your families or your friend's families done? Personally, I think it is great when you can merge the different cultural traditions together.

Feel free to answer if you're in Canada or a different country that has a similar holiday, even if the roots are different.

Second question: What kinds of beer and wine do you find pair well with a Thanksgiving feast? I'm pregnant, so it is a bit of a moot point, but I'd like to live vicariously and prepare for next year.

I'm the office manager at a small regional office, and our holiday luncheon is next week. It typically falls to the people in my position to put together small party favors for everyone. In a bigger office typically they buy something like a store-bought ornament or a cd of Christmas music for everyone, but since we're a smaller and more personal office I want to get something maybe a little bit more interesting.

What kinds of interesting things have you ever gotten as a holiday party favor? Any cute DIY ornament or other ideas for around $5 pp?

Strange doggy behavior

My pitbull/lab Sydney is about a year and a half old now. We got her at 6 months, and she's been the sweetest thing.

She does something strange though. When we got her a fuzzy doggy bed, she'd clamp down on it and suck on the pillow. The doggy bed now no longer exists (thanks to her pitbull tendency to rip her toys apart), and she was fine for a while. But now when she sleeps on my bed, if I have a fuzzy comforter or blanket on top she'll clamp down on a mouthful of blanket and suck on that, sometimes making "nom nom" motions with her jaws. I found tooth marks in the blankets a couple of times.

Why would she do this? Is it a loneliness thing (I don't see why it would be - we pay lots of attention to her), or maybe she was weaned too early and she's unconsciously kneading for milk?

I'm not really sure how to approach it, if it's actually a problem or just a weird dog thing. Advice?

HYPOTHETICAL SITUATION.

Say you are a college student, junior year and you are busting ass to graduate on time. You have no time for electives and are taking an extra class for a couple quarters to get out on time.

How pissed would you be to find out that the registrar messed up and placed you in a class you don't need, through no fault of your own? (You find out with 2 weeks left of the course, so there's no making up for lost time)



(If they don't give me credit for what it was supposed to be, I am going to raise hell/demand a refund for my tuition)


EDIT: I don't think I was very clear.
My adviser told me to take EDU T&L 489.01. So that is what I signed up for. It is definitely required for my major. However, T&L 489.05 is not required, but it was mislabeled as .01. That happens to be the class that the registrar thought I signed up for when I chose .01. I didn't know I was in the wrong class because they are both math teaching field experience courses, with minor differences. One of which being whether it's required to graduate. All 30 students in this class had the same thing happen.

The last few times I've taken my toddler to a movie, she slept through the whole thing. So I'm thinking about the option of bringing her with me to see twilight with the hope that she sleeps through it.

But... in the event that she wakes up, is it too scary of traumatic for a little kid? If you have seen it, were there any small kids in the theater?

I'm hoping that the worst case scenario is that she would just be bored if she does wake up.

Or I just won't see it if it's kid-scary. It's not worth the sitter hassle.
