As a Project Coordinator, at no point has any of my superiors asked why I did something that I've done, and my response been "Men devise many plans, but only God's plan stands", "Trust in my work with all your heart and question me not" or "You don't understand what I'm doing, but someday you will." Yeah, this would not work out at all. |

This is why I couldn't be a cop. Anything to do with children and I become over emotional. I saw the video of the 6 yr old girl who was rescued from being kidnapped in Kentucky last week. Watching the full police video camera footage had me choked up. I would have beat that man to oblivion for traumatizing that little girl, like he did. Momma bear mode would have activated. Amygdala hijacked.. |

Driving home tonight in New Orleans I see a woman get out of a new Nissan Altima (didn't have a license plate it was that new) and change places with a man who was panhandling on Earhart Blvd. She took the sign he was holding that read "I AM NOT FAKING. I REALLY NEED HELP", covers her face, and sits on the plastic crate in the median
Thou shall not judge, but sweetheart.....you need help paying for that new car or something? If you're going to scam people, make it a little less obvious! |

"No worries" is even more nonsensical
I like the way the Brits do it.."cheers". Makes me feel like they're raising a glass to me for my contribution |

Yeah, giving to reputable charities is the way to go. Having said that, I did spot a fellow the other day who was being honest: Cardboard sign: "Why lie, I need a beer." That's about the closest I ever came to giving a panhandler some money.

The primary ingredient in Spam is chopped pork shoulder meat mixed with ham. About 90% of Spam is pork from a pig's shoulders. The remaining 10% (or so) comes from the pig's buttock and thigh, better known as ham.

We had a panhandler sitting at the end of a busy exit ramp near where I work for several years. At the end of his begging day, the dude walked across the street to a small shopping center, got into a Mercedes, and drove off to the north (all affluent neighborhoods).
My philanthropy only goes to vetted organizations.....

The generational thing is obvious here as well, us old guys don't look at "you're welcome" as going above and beyond, it just means "I'm glad to do it (my job). I think I'll rethink "you're welcome" to young people and find something better

How about "no worries?" I know it's originally an Australian English expression but we use here in the US a lot now.
