Why do people say 'long time no talk' ? it really bugs me!?
I've never really heard that one before... I have heard "Long time no see" , but I'm used to that. Relax, it's just a phrase that suggests that the people have gone a long period of time without speaking to each other. No, I don't use it.
Why is it that we can remember words from songs 20 years ago, but often forget things that happened yesterday?
I'm sorry... what was the question again?
This may be the weirdest thing you ever hear?
Ok, so here's the problem. You have a behavior that you have done for so long, you can't stop, it is a habit and you do it without even thinking about it. So the question is..,..Do you really want to stop? Is it affecting your life in an adverse way? Sounds like it isn't a huge deal, I never heard of anyone getting a belly button infection from picking too much...If it is bugging you that much, then it might be time to alter that behavior. You shouldn't need to see a doctor unless you think there might be an infection. People have little habits all the time. I bite my nails constantly, so there is a similarity there. You are picking for some reason, to keep your fingers busy, to feel your belly button, anxiety,...there can be a ton of different reasons. The idea is to find out why, and attack that side of the problem... Whatever you do, DON'T try to substitute something else to pick besides your belly button, like a bracelet. This isn't stopping the behavior, but transferring it. Eventually you will have to stop picking at the bracelet and won't be able to stop. here are some things you can try.... wrap a string around the finger that you use to pick at it, this may remind you to stop. Try to keep your hands busy doing other things... Chart when you do it. Is there a pattern? Are you more likely to do it at certain times of the day? Reward yourself with something - Say if I can go the whole day without picking, I'll get a mocha...or something else that you really want. Have other people remind you. Talk to your family, though it might be embarrassing, tell them to swat your hand every time you pick. This will become annoying, but it is effective. Hope this helps some! :-)
Why do people say "sorry to hear that" when they mean "I am sorry that happened"?
I’m generally not sorry about things that happened, of which I had no control. I usually say, “I’m sorry to hear that” for lack of a better verbal phrase of condolence or sympathy, for a situation that I haven’t enough experience to which to relate, nor can I offer empathy.For example, when my grandmother died, I had only met her three times in my life. She lived some 11,000 miles away from me, and while we enjoyed each other’s company when we did meet, she was not really in my life when I was a child growing into adulthood.So when I hear that a friend has lost a grandparent that he was close to, I can’t really empathize with him to the degree that I wish I could. So, out comes that trite statement, “I’m sorry to hear that,” along with a hug and a, “Let me know if there’s anything I can do.” My feelings, actions and intentions are genuine, but sometimes any amount of words that come to my head in the moment are simply inadequate for the occasion.
What is the polite / nice way of replying when someone says they had a long, tough day?
Offer them a huge smile and a cup of tea. Sometimes when you say nothing, you mean everything.
It's been a long time since I've seen you, oh I hope you didn’t forget about me, what song is this from?
