Not suggestive or sexual in any way. Just crude. I don't get the problem, but yes it is just a mug. I don't feel like getting rid of it but if it really means that much to her it is just a cup. My biggest handicap is that sometimes the hole in the front of my head operates a tad bit faster than the grey matter contained within.

I appreciate your advice. I still have a hard time understanding it, this thread seems to be split on the issue so I have to at least give consideration to the fact that it might be more of an issue than I initially considered it to be.

Nah. We actually have a great marriage (not many people would put up with me). I might have inadvertently given the wrong impression with my initial post. This is not causing a marital rift or any sort of bitterness around the house. She admits that it seems a bit picky but it bugs her. She is not giving me any ultimatums though. Either way it is not a catastrophe, it is just one of those things. My biggest handicap is that sometimes the hole in the front of my head operates a tad bit faster than the grey matter contained within.

Thats my position. Generally she is usually not like this. I have female freinds (and she has guy freinds) and neither of us has any insecurity but for some reason the cup bugs her. Cheers My biggest handicap is that sometimes the hole in the front of my head operates a tad bit faster than the grey matter contained within.

It doesn't sound funny to describe and you would probably have to know me well to find it funny but I will describe it anyway. Basically this cup has a hole through the centre (like a tube from one side to the other so I can still drink out of it) with the word "Ass" above it and about 6 exclamaition marks (!!!!!!!) after it. Basically it screams that the owner of the cup (me) is an asshole. Most of my freinds found it quite funny and said it was perfect for me. There is nothing "special" about the cup. I just find it amusing. Nope. I have neither positive or negative feelings towards this ex. She is simply a part of my history and I do not think about her. It was a very long time ago and I maintain no contact with her and I have no intention changing that. My biggest handicap is that sometimes the hole in the front of my head operates a tad bit faster than the grey matter contained within.

Well obviously if it were to turn into a crisis the cup would go. At this stage it is something she simply would prefer I got rid of. It's not actually causing fights or anything, just minor complaints and some subtle pressure. My biggest handicap is that sometimes the hole in the front of my head operates a tad bit faster than the grey matter contained within.

I think I may have given you guys the wrong impression of her. She does have a bit of a hang-up about this but she really is a wonderfull person. She supports all of my ambitions even if they are not the best career choices. She is just bugged by the cup. It might also be an aggrivating factor that the cup is somewhat rude. But yes, I do not like throwing stuff out and I think she may be overreacting to this one. My biggest handicap is that sometimes the hole in the front of my head operates a tad bit faster than the grey matter contained within.

I don't know. I never thought it would be that big of a deal. If she had a gift from a former boyfreind it would not bother me (unless it was a ring or lingerie). No sugar coating there eh. My biggest handicap is that sometimes the hole in the front of my head operates a tad bit faster than the grey matter contained within.

That is my take. It is an inanimate object of no emotional significance to me. I just find it funny and cannot find one that would replace it. Sigh. My biggest handicap is that sometimes the hole in the front of my head operates a tad bit faster than the grey matter contained within.

Are you trying to get me killed? My biggest handicap is that sometimes the hole in the front of my head operates a tad bit faster than the grey matter contained within.

It's not that big of a deal to me. I will just be disappointed to lose a good cup. My biggest handicap is that sometimes the hole in the front of my head operates a tad bit faster than the grey matter contained within.

Gracias, She is actually really great. She just seems bugged by the cup. But you bring up a good point with the replacement. I doubt she can find one exactly the same but I will suggest thet she get me one that is funny and I may be willing to lose it. My biggest handicap is that sometimes the hole in the front of my head operates a tad bit faster than the grey matter contained within.

That was my default position. If it has to go it has to go. I guess I figured someone here might have had a similar experience and might be able to suggest something I could say to her that might make her less bothered by it. Either way it won't be the end of the world but it is a nice cup so it will be disappointing to get rid of it. My biggest handicap is that sometimes the hole in the front of my head operates a tad bit faster than the grey matter contained within.

But it is just a coffee cup. Do you throw away everything that you received from your ex? My biggest handicap is that sometimes the hole in the front of my head operates a tad bit faster than the grey matter contained within.

Do you retain gifts from your Ex if they are good gifts even though you are now with someone new? My ex from a long time ago gave me a really funny coffee cup when we were dating. My wife doesn't like that I still want to hang on to it. It's not that I am trying to keep it as a memory of my ex (I really have no interest in remembering her); it is really just a funny cup. Am I being an insensitive dick or is she maybe being a bit too sensitive?

Beautifull dog. Really sorry to hear that. Richards My biggest handicap is that sometimes the hole in the front of my head operates a tad bit faster than the grey matter contained within.

Good for you. Too many people take a condescending elitist approach to non-jumpers. I imagine that many of the questions I may have for a base jumper or surfer may seem stupid. Why make someone feel like a dumbass when they are genuinely curious? Be an ambassador and when they hit you with the age old "perfectly good airplane" comments smile through the inner groan and feed their curiousity. A polite skydiver entertaining my whuffo questions got me into the sport and I in turn have got a couple to try it also. It really takes no great effort to be polite.

Holy cow! Thank you for acknowledging that!!! Some of the winners I had were from another planet. Apparently good researchers but no-one could follow a thing they tried to teach.

Regrettable. In fairness to the cops (devils advocate position) they probably hear the same crap all the time from jackasses they arrest. Every time I see an arrest and both times I did the citizens arrest thing the bad guys started crying about medical emergencies. Not sure what the end game of doing that is (probably to distract whoever is detaining them). She had quite the record of tickets, they just saw her putting a false liscence sticker in her car. Then rather than being panicked like someone with a medical emergency she kept blandly repeatng it like a mantra. Given her size and the fact that she was only 4 months pregnant she was not showing from what I saw. I can see why they might have thought she was under the influence and/or playing games with them. They did not handle it well but I do not think they were being deliberately cruel. This is one to learn from but I do not think the cops should be fired for it. Maybe some sort of supplemental training and chalk it up to experience My biggest handicap is that sometimes the hole in the front of my head operates a tad bit faster than the grey matter contained within.

My only concern with this is that it might make doctors overly cautious. In every profession people will make mistakes (even dumb mistakes) as will doctors since they are still only members of the human race. If there was a malpractice witch hunt many doctors might try to avoid doing anything that might work for fear of charges if their gamble doesn't pay off. This is why for example in Canada we have a "good samaritan law" that says if you stop to render first aid and act reasonably and in good faith you cannot be sued if anything goes wrong. This was done to prevent people from standing by and doing nothing when someone was dying. So yes if a doctor is just being blatantly stupid, negligent (not just a dumb error, it would have to be something extreme like drinking on the job), or malicious then fine but do not make doctors afraid to take calculated risks. I had a doctor make a procedural error that caused me some minor discomfort and a second minor surgery. Everyone I told insisted that I sue the guy for making a honest mistake. Needless to say I did not sue, but it was an insight to me as to the unrealistic expectations people have in doctors.

Genuinely hope you don't actually believe that. Again it sounds like you do excellent overall, this particular subject seems to cause you unusual difficulty. The school allows you to replace a grade if you get an F, but not if you get a C? Correct me if I am wrong but does that not discourage a student with a bad midterm mark from giving it their all? If I interpret that correctly it basically says that if you are marginal and won't likely get the grade you want, you are better off to quit than really give it everything you've got to bring up your grade in the course, since at least if you fail you get a second chance. Odd incentive program. Anyway, enough about that. I am sorry that things did not turn out well, and hope things do improve in the near future. Given the obvious stress you are suffering from, you sound like you should go get really drunk with your freinds/family and get it out of your system unless there is another pending exam in the immediate future.

Just wait for it, it is not too far off. My biggest handicap is that sometimes the hole in the front of my head operates a tad bit faster than the grey matter contained within.

Doh!!. My dumb. I thought maybe something I said got taken out of context. Completely missed who it was you were referring to. My biggest handicap is that sometimes the hole in the front of my head operates a tad bit faster than the grey matter contained within.

Right. My error. Just skimming through and I saw the post. Obviously made the mistake of not following the whole thread through. Anyway, I was not trying to be obnoxious, I was just curious. Never had too much problem with criticism. I was pretty passive with my progression and kept within the limits that were advised to me by the DZ staff.
