@TheTinyMan Draws jian You're on!
 
@Catija Hmm. I haven't been trained to fight with any weapon at all, so you've got one up on me! xD
@Mithrandir24601 Uh, um, uh. starts flailing his stick wildly

Q: I've repored my neighbor's abusive behaviors towards their child to their relatives. Should I report this to the authorities?

OokerAround six months ago the wife in my neighbor used bottle to hit her husband. Their two daughters (one ~16, one ~10) cried a lot and I was the one who gave them words of comfort, and my mom talked with her. Their close-by relatives (seemingly paternal side) did actively involve to stop the fight,...

> “Silence is only awkward if one cannot feel a connection with the other.”
@Tinkeringbell Isn't it a nice quote? ^^ ;)
 
11:58 AM
@AJ It is :)
 
A J
@Tinkeringbell Let's add it into the room topic.
 
@AJ Yeah, that would be cool :-)

@Tinkeringbell Done. :)
 
@AJ Cool :D
Now, I really really really have to go outside.... and I don't wanna, it's freezing..
 
A J
Put your coat on and go.
Who's stoppin' you? ;)
 
12:04 PM
Doesn't that look awfully cold? :P
 
A J
Hmm. Yeah.
 
That's not going to be fixed with a coat alone :P
 
A J
I live in a hot province. I don't usually see that much cold.
10 degree is freezing for us.
@Tinkeringbell I'd not have said that it is too cold after looking at the tree on the left one, but then I saw the tree on the right in the back.
@Tinkeringbell Did you see Ankit with a stormtrooper?
Seems like she went outside and froze. :P
 
@AJ I did :P
I'm not frozen yet, mom wants to come to. Hopefully we can do 'March of the Penguins' and stay warm :P
 
A J
@Tinkeringbell March of the Penguins?
 
12:13 PM
It's a balmy 8 degrees here :)
 
@AJ It's a pretty famous documentary :P
 
A J
Ohh
 
One of the books I ordered just came in, and it's the wrong colour :/
 
A J
@Mithrandir24601 It went down to 0 here but only for once. I remember seeing snow on the guava tree in the frontyard.
 
@AJ The last time it was that cold here was... about one and a half days ago...
 
A J
12:20 PM
It's only 7-10 degrees these days.
 
I hate the cold :/
And the problem is that anything less than about 20 feels cold to me :/
 
A J
We get to eat so many delicious things in the winter, which doesn't add the weight. So, I love it.
@Mithrandir24601 Ohh
 
@AJ I'm currently heating some paella I got down the street 10 minutes ago :)
 
A J
Sounds yummy.
 
@AJ It most definitely is :)

Q: Should I share problems with my spouse with my friends?

user9748Suppose you're living with your spouse and going through some problems with your spouse. You've addressed the problems several times with her but your spouse has been unwilling to pay attention to you and has been ignoring you. When you talk to her she simply tells you to shut up. Part of the pro...

 
2:28 PM
I also hate coldness. The temperature I like is over 30 C.
 
@AJ thanks:)
 
it's only 20 C now.
too low temperature weather brings me the desolate feeling.
 
2:42 PM
This kind of desolate feeling can be relieved by being surrounded with people.
when being isolated from people in winter with low temperature, I feel melancholic particularly.

This question interpersonal.stackexchange.com/questions/7506/… just made me realize that we have a tag neighbours (12 questions) and neighbors (2 questions). I can't seem to do some synonym stuff with it (not enough answers/questions).
 
@AnneDaunted I think you need a mod for that ;)
But it's a good observation :-)
 
4:19 PM
With sufficient reputation you can recommend tag synonyms. Mods can do it, too.
 
Thanks! I just thought I bring it to someone's attention.

Ehh... I don't know if a similar question has been asked before, so before I ask it- How do I disband from someone I seriously dislike, but they like me? I'm roommates with this guy and like, he's a proper nasty person. Everything I dislike about people, is a trait he has. But he actually likes me as a friend. I'm going to move out of the house and I don't know how to do it in a way that doesn't make this dangerous psycopath of a man come after me.
Should I ask this as a question and add some more context?
 
@DCON If you fear he might come after you, and you're afraid of the guy that much, it'll probably be closed as 'needs a professional' (either lawyer or police)
 
@AnneDaunted officially, tags should be AmE
 
It's not really that I'm afraid of him; but from his past history, I don't want to find out what he might be capable of.
 
6:57 PM
@DCON Hmmm... just focus on the 'end the friendship part as soon as possible' part, don't go calling the guy a psychopath (assuming you're not a shrink so you can't be sure of it... :P )
Don't go ranting about all his bad habits
I don't think we have a question like it yet. So feel free to ask :)

Q: Answer to: "Why aren't you with your boyfriend right now?"

HekxI have a boyfriend, but still live with my parents and siblings. It seems that every time I have a spare moment with my SO not present, someone's bound to ask me why, i.e. "Why are/were you not with [boyfriend] right now/tomorrow/next weekend/yesterday?" Sometimes even adding the question if we'r...

@ExtrovertedMainMan that one feels like an XY problem...
 
in Tavern on the Meta on Meta Stack Exchange Chat, 21 hours ago, by Shog9
I haven't watched Disney's animated "Robin Hood" since I was a kid, but apparently there's a lot more going on in it than I recall.
 
:facepalm:
 
@Catija ugh....
That's helpful
 
@apaul did you read the rest of the conversation?
 
@Catija not yet
 
9:09 PM
@apaul it's interesting at the least.
 
@Catija Kinda what I would expect.
"Fortunately, I don't think most people take furries seriously" isn't great, but whatever
 
@apaul yeah. But I'm glad it's not generally as concerning.

Q: Communication while setting up an information interview via email and after finishing one

SnowingSilentlyFor a class I'm taking, I've been interviewing experts in the field. One place I contacted by email just set me up with a specific person, cc'd this person, and told me to contact this person by email and arrange the date and time. How should this email be written?

Q: Could/should we work this into our help center?

apaulCatija said something in a comment yesterday that really struck me as something we could all stand to keep in mind: You don't have to vote on every question and answer posted here. When you downvote because something makes you uncomfortable, you are hurting the person who has asked the questi...

Q: How to handle someone doing an exercise dangerously wrong?

anonImportant context: The gym I go to is a powerlifting gym. Not your everyday example when you think of a gym. It's a lot smaller and the people who lift there are typically professional body builders/wrestlers/professional athletes/etc. who warm up with half the plates in the gym. However, the gy...
