We live in a community that is obsessed with health and wellness. DD gets teased at school because we eat at McDonald's sometimes...to the point where, when we eat at McD's, she gets this ashamed look on her face and her entire body language changes. (We eat at McD's about twice a month.) DD is one of the healthiest eaters I know. I hate that she now feels guilt associated with any part of her diet. She most likely has a healthier diet (overall) than the majority of her classmates. It makes me SO angry.
That's a rather grand assumption, no?
I thought your community was the epitome of diversity? Except when it comes to food choices, I guess?

I'm sorry if it sounded like I was shaming you guys on spending money on underwear. That was so not my intention. The sad hand raising gif made me feel a little bad! I am sorry!!!
$14 is just way too much for me. But, I spend money on things that I'm sure other people would never do. We all do our thing.
Oh my!! No shame implied from me either!! Go forth and purchase your fancy panties!!! I fully support it, though I would rather spend my money on Lululemon

I love lululemon, but I buy most of it on sale. I stalk their online sale section.
I'll take this one step further, and say that I love going to the dentist.
I like going to the dentist too. Not love, but like. My teeth always feel so clean after!
That being said I'd never had a cavity. My only major problem is my gums, but that's due to other medical issues. I have to go every three months to keep everything in check, so it's a good thing I don't mind going!
Gesh that is a little pushy. Are they betting big money or do they just like watching it? If your dad prefers baseball that is definitely what should be on!
Dad would MUCH rather be watching the Astros or Rangers, for sure. They don't bet anything on it. My MIL just likes to watch the horses. She does the same with the dog show every year. Her mom even goes to their house to watch it with them. Sidenote: my MIL doesn't even really like dogs, or didn't until she met our pup. My in-laws are strange like that. We went away for H's 30th birthday and invited my family and his (he and my grandpa share a birthday). The second night, my entire family wanted to go out to dinner, and my in-laws dragged their feet because the Auburn football game was on and FIL didn't want to miss it. Even though they were up by 30. I was nearly in tears because my other grandfather had recently had a stroke, and all he wanted was to go get a hamburger and I could tell he was getting frustrated and couldn't find the words to say he was starving, and still my in-laws kept putting off dinner.
My great grandma always wanted to watch the races, too, but she would ask about a zillion times if people wanted to watch something else. We would never let her change it, though.
Aw that makes me sad for your grandfather. The world doesn't revolve around your in laws and they should learn to be more accommodating. Especially if it is a family gathering and not just hanging around the house with you and YH.
I'll take this one step further, and say that I love going to the dentist.
I used to hate it and would only go every other year. Once I started going every 6 months it doesn't seem as bad anymore. But that's probably because they aren't scraping at my teeth forever.

Once upon a time I loved going to the dentist, until I had a shitty one who promised I didn't need to be numbed for a tiny cavity. Um... ded. It hurt so bad, and when I flipped out, he was like "whoah, sorry! Got a little lazy there!" WTF

I volunteer in their class every week and see their snacks and lunches. It's definitely an assumption, since I don't know what they eat for breakfast or dinner, nor do I know what they eat the other four days of the week. However, if they eat similar things at those other times, then I can say that my daughter is definitely in the top 10% of healthy eaters in her class.
She chooses only fresh fruits, veggies, and yogurt for snacks. She takes her lunch every day, usually whole-wheat crackers, a hard-boiled egg, cheese, carrots/broccoli/celery/salad, fresh fruit, yogurt, and water. When we go out, she almost always orders a salad with a side of fruit. She only drinks milk, water, and lemonade. She happily consumes a green smoothie every day.
Her major vice is ice cream. She'll eat it any time, any where.
I *wish* I had her eating habits. I don't know where she got it from.

Oh! I had a small cavity once and they said they could try without numbing. As soon as they started drilling I was like NOPE you need to numb that shit stat.

This is the shit nightmares are made of.
I am still terrified of the dentist, even though I know it stems from a one time thing as a child. When I was about 10 I was getting something drilled and for some reason the gas wasn't turned on all the way or was out and so I wasn't numb when they started. It took two aides and my mom holding me down to get the mask back on. I will go, but I'm anxious the whole time.

Jealous. I have fairly bad teeth and get cavities often. I hate when the dentist/hygenist will wait until the very end of my appointment to tell me whether or not I have a cavity. I spend the entire appointment being nervous and dreading what the outcome will be.
I had to get a filling once, and while trying to freeze my mouth, the dentist froze my eyelid open. Like, I couldn't blink at all. He tried taping my eyelid shut, but it kept popping open.
We decided that instead of trying to administer more freezing, it would be best that I came back at another time.
LOL, I realize that this makes me exceptionally crazy for loving the dentist, even after that!
Love-titting for the last part because that made me chuckle. I don't love that your eyelid was frozen open!

My mother was a dental hygenist for 30 years. One year, when I was 5, she had do to her CE's and the babysitter was a no show. She had no choice but to bring me along. So there I was, 5 years old, sitting in a lecture hall looking at giant pictures of oral cancer. And people wonder why I'm completely disgusted by spit.

I've had a filling done without being numbed and it was the easiest one I've had. The needle is what scares the crap out of me. And it was like $50 cheaper.

I usually buy most of my underwear from VS. I usually hit up their 5 for $30 or 7 for $25 sales on the cheap cotton undies. Every once in a while I will buy a fancy pair if it matches a new bra I am buying.
I don't mind the dentist. I have had only 2 visits where I had to have something done. My wisdom teeth removed (I wish that pain on no one) and I had excess gums on my front 6 teeth that they lasered off. Other than that I haven't had anything major done. I go my required once a year and thats it.
