How much do you modify your behavior?

I modify my language and some attitudes.  Cant say why exactly, but I am a bit impressionable, so that might be it.

I do the same, grin, apolgize and alugh again.. :lol

I guess this shows you how much I modify my behavior to others standards.

I modify.  If I'm in a public bathroom and I've got the squirts or a large amount of intestinal gas, and there is some poor unexpecting dude in the next stall, I give a courtesy flush timed to coincide with the first explosive release.  After that, though, he's on his own... :D

I am socially acceptable at all times under any circumstance.  My character is basically flawless, even under hardened stress.

Your at a dinner. Your plate arrives. It has a big steaming dookie on it.

I send it back...its overcooked.
Political correctness is a doctrine fostered by a delusional, illogical, liberal minority and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.

I had an interesting experience over the past 13 years. I had a female Cocker Spaniel growing up from 3rd grade up all the way through college. Before her, dad would come home all pissed off going on a tear - and then Angel showed up. And even when she was just a little puppy, she would jump on his pillow with legs spread - when he would come home on a rant he'd look at her - her legs noticably shaking with "i'm gonna blow...just say another word." And magically, the yelling went to "angel...please get off my pillow." and of course she did it.

She died a week before I got diabetes in 2003 - but when I lived at home, even after she died - her cage was always in front of the door so it was impossible to get inside without setting her off.

And when i'd come home late at night, i'd find myself tiptoing not to wake her up, completely oblivious to the fact she was no longer there.



Case and point - i think the idea of training animals is a misnomer. They train us.

I moderate myself considerably. I don't want to see people picking their noses, so I don't pick mine. I don't want to see people scratchin' their balls, so I don't scratch mine. I've never really thought about it until this thread... but I guess that's probably how I govern myself.

Well.....who cares what you do, if it feels good do it.  Heck I saw a 40 something couple in Vicky's secret picking out thongs one day, me and my friends chuckled and went on our way.  If you are comfortable with yourself, it doesn't matter what others think.....or does it?
