I said you were complaining that a dead couple in their 20s didn't have funeral insurance. AS though that a normal thing for anyone under 40/50 to have purchased. All this while a member of one of their families was in the thread.Then you act all "Yes, i'm a caveman hoho. you all need safe spaces".No, you are just a dope.

You might need to reread those posts...Name calling now?Move along...
So we move into a new place that had been occupied by some Korean girls before us. Was pretty okay except there was blood all over the bathroom. No matter how many times I scrubbed, I couldn't get all the bloodstains out. Or the mold. At least there wasn't visible mold in the living areas, though...

However, posters from the "peanut gallery" start chiming in "wish pecan were dead" etc. :)

Like an argument thread - no rules, always disagree, always debate. It would be like Battle Royale, who will survive? but no hard feelings held outside the thread. I love having a good row sometimes. There used to be one on Expatkorea called 'Fight Club' which worked well.Bring that here and Pennypie would be hitting me with her Daily Mail, while swigging from her Bacardi Breezer and calling me a tawt. I'll just be sitting here drinking ovaltine and waiting for Marks and Sparks to open to 'get me bitz'.

I mean, anybody that construed waygook.org user Pecan's cancer comment as being anything beyond a joke is seriously just looking for something to be upset about.
I love how "is English not your first language?" reigns as the Ultimate Siq Burn around here.
One of the things that irritates me more than almost anything else is people complaining about something, being shown a simple solution, ignoring it, and continuing to complain. It's seriously maddening. People would rather gripe about something than fix it and have nothing to whine about.
One of my CTs refuses to sit next to me at lunch and I have no idea why. It sounds really petty, and honestly I didn't care very much at first, but it's starting to seem a little mean spirited. We sit at a table with several other teachers. We all sit wherever we want and get up and leave whenever we want, there is no usual seating chart although I do tend to set on the end with one of my other CTs since we both eat fast and leave early. Other teachers sit next to me no problem although I know they'd probably like to sit next to the teachers they are more friendly with. Really though, not much chatting goes on, and the CT who this comment is about is definitely not a big talker. But she does things like taking the only empty chair next to me and moving it to a spot on the other side of the table that's missing a chair and sitting there instead of just sitting next to me like anyone else would. She has done this a couple of times, moving chairs or sitting in inconvenient places so she doesn't have to sit next to me. I didn't care at first but when she does these things it's kind of embarrassing because it's really obvious what she's doing, and the other teachers probably wonder why my direct coworker is avoiding me at lunch. Like I said, it sounds soooo petty but I have to admit it's slightly hurtful when she does things like moving the chair or sitting at some weird uncomfortable corner spot where no one else ever sits and the only other open seat is next to me. She's been doing this since I got to this school so I don't think I did anything to piss her off. The way she set things up for our class is I run the whole thing alone and she "helps" so I never even have to talk to her about lesson planning. When I go to teach in her room, she always leaves the class during break time and comes back several minutes into class so we have no small talk or even any greetings. I'm not a big talker so it's not like I go out of my way to say much more than the standard polite things, she doesn't have to avoid me out of fear of speaking English... Is being around me really so terrible? Geez.Maybe I'm too sensitive but just the fact that she's a grown woman avoiding me like I'm a damn leper makes me a little angry. I've never had any co-Ts act like this before, so it doesn't seem very mature or professional.
Yeah, a long time ago, I got told that it wasn't polite to speak English at lunch because not everyone can understand it.
