So I saw the news tonight about the illegal alien costume. I noticed that some people found it offensive due to the fact about immigration and many people going to other countries illegally. However, the description had sad that he is illegal alien from another planet and has come with his own illegal green card. I could see how some people may be offended. However, it didn't offend me at al...

Congratulations! I'd recommend talking with your doctor (it seems like you did that) so you can get approval to go. If the winning ticket was under your son's name then you may want to consider that your son picks another person, maybe his father or best friend. If you had the winning ticket then you'll have to go with him. Most of the time they don't let you substitute the winning prize since ...

Well I don't have a car so luckily I don't have to pay for those stickers or license plates. However I did notice they raised prices for drive license ID card. My father and grandfather had to renew their ID and their sticker and each one paid over 60 USD. While I don't think it was as much as yours, it was much more than last year, at least by one third increase or more.

No, I wouldn't accept it either. Explain to the manager that a) the transportation, fuel, and food expenses would cost more than what they are paying you, and b) you cannot accept a job that's paying under minimum wage. Try to find a job that plays at least minimum wage, and if transportation is an issue, close to your home.

No, not personally. However I've know family and friends who sued or who were sued. One of my friends got into an auto accident and sued the people and their insurance company. She won over 11 000 USD from the lawsuit. However, I believe her lawyer charged a lot of fees so I'm sure she only got about 75% of that. What is your lawsuit about? There are some good websites and forums about laws...

Yes of course that happens before to everyone! I left my keys on the dresser. I looked and looked. I tore the whole house up. It happened before with my wallet. It's all annoying and it makes me upset sometimes, right? I try to keep my items all in the same place so I don't misplace them. It is a good strategy.

I see what you're saying about that it has to do with immigrants. I guess the design is stupid, but it seems like people are buying it.

I didn't think it was such a big deal, either. However I can see how someone could be offended. My opinion? If it offends you then don't buy it. People are buying it otherwise they wouldn't be selling it.

Exactly, in a way that's what I thought. If we complain about every little thing that is offensive I think we would lose lots of time in our lives. We must pick and choose our battles. I don't think this one would be one worth fighting for.

Well it totally depends on the perception and original cause for me to be "offensive". If it was made to offend then I'd be upset. However, it appears by the owners they weren't trying to be offensive. I guess, as you say, immigrants could be offended due to the fact that many people have used similar images before to make fun of them. Some stores are not selling them due to the feedback they h...
