I hate having my feet touched. I've never had a pedicure or a foot massage. Makes me want to
I'm sort of the same way. I can't stand it when my feet even touch each other if I'm barefoot, it feels so gross. And I can't sleep without wearing socks, the thought of my feet rubbing against bare sheets makes me want to gouge my eyeballs out.
The first pedicure I ever had was when I was like 38 weeks pregnant with my daughter and my mom insisted. It was really rough at first but my mom talked to me to distract me and towards the end I even liked it. I've only had maybe 3 since then, because I still don't *love* it but it's not so bad, either. Oh, and if someone else touches me with their feet or even tries to, I get severe anxiety. It's so weird. People think it's funny but it causes me legit anxiety.
I can't even imagine this! I have been DYING to have a pedicure/foot massage but haven't had the time/someone to watch DD in so long. Wahhhh my feet miss it!!
Despite my frustration at what happened over on the-site-that-shall-not-be-named on Tuesday, and the anger and momentum it generated for me personally, I was a little disappointed in the "going down in flames" decision as it played out with all the individual insult posts. In my opinion, regardless of whether the call-outs were accurate and warranted, the only real outcome of those posts (other than getting out some frustration tangibly) was to solidify the accusation levied at so many members of the board anyway (the whole "y'all just revel in being mean" thing). I do believe most all of it came from a real and true emotional place and was done in the spirit of defending good people in honeylemon and irishvodkagrl (and others)...and hey, it's the innerwebz so there's no politeness rule in play here. I'm not here to say I love anyone any less or to confess feeling all judge-y and finger-waggy about it. To each her own for sure. I just typically am one to both err and advise on the side of taking the high road (especially when it comes to dealing with trolls like MissRissx and her band of lets-all-hug-it-out-newbies) and speaking with my actions/wallet rather than engaging in an exchange that likely won't end in a way that really feels satisfying anyway.

saltyh2O - I saw it in a different way. All of the glitter trolls and hug-it-out-newbs were calling us "mean girls" the entire time even when we were kind. So-- why not show them what mean really is? They probably actually miss the old board that was way more together, and only about 5% snark. Now that they completely pissed everyone off, they got to see everyone's REAL mean, bitchy sides. Some of us left and said nothing. Some of us snarked a bit but never got fully banned, and some went completely down in flames with a wanted banning. Either way-- I think they all got the point.
I want to hear! I'm obsessed with accents. I bet you sound so cute! I told DH we were raising our children to have accents.
I don't know how cute I am saying cunt all the time hehe. My DF is Canadian and as we are moving back to Aus to have LO he can't wait to hear his daughter with an Aussie accent
I have another one. I was just over on TB and I don't approve of people telling everyone to come over here. I mean it's nice to have a variety of people just don't want those stupid people here. :/

Totally justified in your own perspective on the outcome lgsdesigner and I don't disagree that many of the "fly by" posters had made up their minds no matter what was said or done before Tuesday. I just don't think there is or was much to be gained by, as you stated by "showing them what mean really is" via some of the more choice words that were selected. Like I said, we're all adults and can react however we see fit to any particular situation, so I didn't take any of it personally or anything. Emotions were high with the injustice of what happened, and I get that. I suppose when it comes to the internet and forum style discussion, I see it the same way I see Facebook rants about politics or religion (or similar subjects): no one is going to change anyone else's position on something by typing out a message in a text box, be it fiery, sweet, profane, gentle or otherwise. The dye is usually cast by that point. Walking away and taking your business with you, while hard to stomach when the other side is happily poking for a reaction, is, in my opinion, a more dignified and effective course of action. You can't fight with someone who has left the building...and it's even better when the building itself falls into disrepair as a result (kinda like TB is now).

I am completely flabbergasted (love that word) by everyone that dislikes chocolate, peanut butter and ketchup! My absolute fan condiment though is Frank's Hot Sauce. I literally "put that shit on everything".
But I guess my UO is that I hate Ranch. And bleu cheese dressing. And mayo. And sour cream. Basically everything white & creamy
Ok, I'll throw a log into the fire to heat things up!
Based off reading the birth photography, I'll confess my unpopular opinion/FFFC .... Ready, here it goes:
FTM, yes, would "like" to go med- free, yes I understand plans can turn to shit real quick.
I have asked DH to set up the video camera in a corner of the room so that after its all done and said, I, me and only me, can go back and watch what happened, what I said, watch the experience so to say. I think that during the excitement and the stress and all that new hoopla will mean I won't see the experience clearly, or remember it. I've had several close friends say they loved being able to go back and watch what happened and my best friend is on the "hell to the fucking no copilot you're fucking nuts wagon", but for me.....I wanna see, at least once. And once again.....just for ME, NO ONE else.
There ya go, I'm sure that's not popular!
I'm not interested in actually doing this, but you raise a fair point when I think about the moments after DS was born. I really don't remember every single thing super clearly (and I wasn't allowed meds), so the idea of watching what actually transpired has its appeal at least from the perspective of wanting to know what exactly happened and when. I get that.

I really dislike ranch. And many other foods, but I pointed this out in another thread.
Also, I can't freaking stand Zoey Deschanel. At all.
Zoey Deschanel annoys me too. I can't explain why, but she does.
So funny you mention her, I have big bangs and big eyes just like her (but brown) I got preg, then engaged, and now the same thing has happened to her. Obvi the bitch is stealing my life. I do love her sister though

I gave you a love tit, but it's a half-assed one, just so you know
I'm also a lover of chocolate, PB, ketchup and Frank's. But how dare you speak ill of my favorite creamy condiments? I could eat sour cream by itself. Or cream cheese. And I can't fathom eating a sandwich without mayo, or a buffalo wing without bleu cheese. And have you ever mixed Frank's with ranch? Mmmm.

Dislikes anything white & creamy..... Hahaha I'm giggling like a 12 year old. Edit wrong smiley face

I'm all "Meh" about the open invitation for others to come here. From my last BMB experience, some that you don't expect to be crazy cakes turn out to be so, some might come out of their shell that you don't expect and some will just completely disappear. I like the loose TOU here and if someone is truly a nuisance to the board here, it will be handled. As great as it is to be elusive, it does make you pull your head out of your ass and remember that there's a lot of people who have different opinions and such that will stretch your thinking.
PS: I'm not talking "you" to anyone specific. I have to pull my head out of my ass from time to time too. It's because of forums like this that I have constantly changing opinions on things from the other ways of thinking.

Good timing for my particular UO. Officially calling it: the 1-hour glucose test is totally NBD. I said so when I did it at 8ish weeks, then I had to listen to people go "oh you just wait and see, it's worse when you're bigger", so here I am, fresh from the blood lab, to tell you that it was equally uneventful for me at 24 weeks.
The only ones who get a pass are the people who said they can't stand orange because if I was forced to drink, say, a pineapple-flavoured concoction, I would gag and piss and moan about it too... but outside of that, no real sympathy from this lady!

I recognized everyone on the due date spread sheet! and then....

SassyPants150 - Agreed. I have a feeling MrsRiss is here, too. She posted today a "3 Facts" post just like the post I did on here the other day. Not saying other people can't think up a post idea like that, but it's very ironic.
For me, the roles he plays make him hot. Like in The Notebook (which I know a ton of people hate, whatevs) and in Crazy Stupid Love. Passing him on the street I wouldn't be like ZOMG there's the hottest guy I've ever seen, but after watching him long enough now I pretty much feel that way.
Similar to the skinny jeans on men UO above, I can't stand the hipster glasses trend. Those giant plastic frames look ridiculous on most people. They look like the glasses I was ashamed to have in 4th grade because they were the only ones my family could afford. I just don't get it.
YES! I remember when, one by one, nearly every girl in my office got them and I wanted so badly to say "you know those only actually look good on one of you, right?"
I despise peanut butter. I can't be near it. People always screwed with me and chased me with it, so now I just tell people I'm allergic.
On The Challenge the other night they had to lick it off of glass and it made me throw up. I'm getting nauseous just thinking about it.
I don't dislike peanut butter per se, but I think I could happily go the rest of my life without eating it and not even notice its absence. DH LOVES chocolate and peanut butter, or peanut butter on stuff, but I can easily take it or leave it.
