9. As an aside, LOVE your name!
The Apartment made me fall in love with Shirley MacLaine, and want to be Jack Lemmon.

13. I am quite aware of what passive aggressive is...
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Passive-aggressive_behavior

However, due to the fact an Internet Forum is an active process it does not lend itself to
a true display of 'passive'. A 'passive' response would be to not post at all.

:hi:

15. I...your responses to the thread aren't passive agressive responses
Edited on Fri Oct-05-07 10:32 AM by janesez
They're more like nagging, or something. Like a stereotypical Jewish mother, maybe.

Listen, I'm really not trying to give you grief, or make you mad. I just...you don't really get the humor, I don't think. If you read the other responses on the thread, it might help. Radfringe and Corgigirl have it nailed. :hi:

18. I will quote directly from the DSM-III...
"Does not express hostility or anger openly - (ex. expresses it instead by leaving notes)"

I am leaving whining notes about various pet peeves.

Have a nice day. :)

24. Italian Catholic here too...
Typical quote: "No, no, don't worry about me. I'll be fine. You go and have a good time. Don't even think of me for a second. It's time for the young people to have their fun. Comes a time when all that's over. But really, go. Have a wonderful time. I'll be here. Alone."

:rofl:

Man, aren't you a lesbian? How'd THAT go over? :D
