40 Of The Best Answers To “What Is One ‘Unwritten Rule’ You Think Everyone Should Know And Follow?”

It can be funny, but there's a big difference between making fun of someone's laugh and laughing WITH them.

I wish I could - I'd tell her that's it's bullying. If she's a bit of a bitch, there are better uses for that. I knew someone who was quite mouthy, but mostly used her big mouth to defend weaker people against bullies. Is your sister brave enough to do that?

on Japanese public transport, there are signs up telling people not to use their phones and the conductors will tell people to stop if they are using them.

I second that infinity times!

Are you refering to talking on speakerphone or just talking to someone on the phone in public? Because there are people who get annoyed that someone would talk on the cellphone at all but don't seem to have a problem with people speaking at the same volume to a person sitting next to them.

There are some good leak-reduction headphones out there too so people have no excuse!

My dog is extremely possessive of me. She would not like having another dog in the house.. (heck.. we have a cat and chickens here and she is jealous of them too)

Wow !!!! You're so lucky, I've always wanted a leopard gecko but I don't think I have the time for it.

But again, that's a pet owner's choice based on their current pet and whether it would be a good fit or not. We had a cat who was so happy being our furbaby. We "inherited" another cat several years later from a friend who was moving into a situation where they couldn't take their cat, and our elder kitty was miserable. So he took it out on the newbie cat and on us. They never were friends and he never forgave us. It would have been better for him if our friends had found the other kitty a different home. (Not so great for us, because we loved both kitties, and were glad to have the second one, except for how badly that affected the elder one and the fact that the younger one got bullied a lot. After the elder kitty passed, the second kitty really blossomed into a happy cat, and we were glad we'd kept her.)

Awww I have one too his name is Alex :)

The size of one's family is a personal choice and NOYFB.

I'm not meaning the same type of animal; my grandma's dogs are even playful with my geckos; one dog stares at their cage all the time n is desperate to play with em! Lol :-D

I want to see a picture of a leopard gecko

Kids are a want not a need. Pets are a needful comfort and you save a life.

Yes! Cats/kittens come in pairs.

My cockatiel is terrified of other birds so I wouldn't be able to get another one to keep her company.

Leopard geckossss <3 I had one named Seojun... and I still have him! He used to get stressed at the breeder I brought him from because there were other geckos around him, and he’s much better now that he’s alone. I guess it differs from gecko to gecko!

Anyone who refers to their animals as kids definitely has issues.

Exactly, my wife and I don't have kids for a good, and very personal reason. If people press we'll sometimes tell them, and then they are sorry they asked.

I'm glad to hear things like this. My daughter is an only child and we couldn't have another. She wants a sibling so bad. I always feel terrible about it because I'm the one with fertility issues and feel responsible for her loneliness. I'm glad to hear from only children who find the positive in it.

I agree, I spent a lot of time in the garden as an only child observing insects and plants, got my curiosity towards nature early on because of that.

Yeah, sometimes kids are lonely and it’s horrible to be the only child, sometimes it’s horrible when they have siblings. If the kid doesn’t care and the parents don’t have another kid, then oh well.

Oh yes! I could definitely do without my narcissistic younger sister. She ruins most family get-togethers with her selfish drama and nonsense. I have avoided the majority of those for years. I gave my partner the okay to never go again if they didn't want to.

While I agree with being kind to people, I think saying " we are not get paid enough" is stupid. So, in your opinion, how much must someone earn that it is ok to insult them? Just be kind to everyone. Period.

Hear hear

It's a dirty job but someone has to do it!

Same goes for customer service/tech support.

You're right and that's what I actually do. If they insist, I tell them I'll check it out myself when I have free time. I hang up when the one answering is an actual prerecorded voice. Having said that, beware that sometimes these calls will be by actual scammers and real thieves.

When those call centers calls become so frequent that you recognize the workers voice and can identify them by name, and you have repeatedly told them you are on the national do not call list so by them calling they are violating federal regulations, then yes I may get a little frustrated and lose my temper from time to time and hangup sometimes.... So sue me.

And to yourself... exclamation point.

Good God, K!! Reading your messages, I had a hunch it must be cancer. Take care my friend, and stay strong. This time will pass, I wish you a good luck and good health. It's always nice to hear from you. And to the people downvoting K, what the hell is wrong with you people? K was just answering to something I asked.

Ugh the people at my old apartment were SO bad about that. The elevator would stop, you’d wait for them to get off the elevator, they wouldn’t, you’d squeeze your way to try to get on, and THEN they’d get off. Or if I was on the elevator, EVERY TIME they’d just squeeze on immediately and then not move. I used the stairs as often as I could after a while.

Hello friend. I got your message last week, and I sense the genuine concern in them. Being on the younger side, learning I have metastatic cancer in the early days of the pandemic while recovering from surgery...it wasn’t easy. It was hard to ask for what I need and be vulnerable with what’s going on. I found myself reassuring others more. Your messages of hope and concern reached me. I’ve been doing so much better. My health and sleeping improved. Thank you for checking up on me.

THANK you!!!
