Question by No: What is it called when Nurses/Doctors go to Drug/Alcohol Treatment? It has a name that you don’t associate…?
What is it called when Nurses/Doctors go to Drug/Alcohol Treatment? It has a name that you don’t associate with rehab… It is a cute little euphemism for “Rehab”.

Does anyone know what I’m talking about?
I found it! “Diversion Programs”.

I needed an euphemism for “Recovery” to put in the list of potential dietary requirements for a b-day party I’m planning.

“If anyone has any issues with the set, family-style menu, I was told they can request a plate off the regular menu and (as long as it isn’t lobster etc.) it will be covered by the $ 16.95 a head so vegetarians, theistic requirements, anyone on Diversion, Allergies, etc. etc. etc. can be accommodated without a meltdown.”

Question by jennilaine777: “Stop making that noise or you’re going to drive me to drink!”?
I heard a woman say this to her toddler inside Target. I spun around and gave a cold stare to the woman. She didn’t take away the toy that was making the noise, but kept yelling at the toddler to stop making the noise about 5 times. I was offended by the woman’s actions and words. Am I wrong for feeling this? Do you think the woman was saying and doing this for my attention? (I was the only one around in earshot.) Was she trying to get sympathy from me, or to strike up a conversation so she could vent to me? What do you think?
DDaring… no, you’re wrong… I wanted to ask a question in Yahoo answers. This is the first thing that poped into my head. Assumptions can lead to people making asses out of themselves. Holier than thou never works, dear sir. The question is… what do you think about HER actions, not mine.
