At the risk of stirring up a political argument, my in-laws. Honestly I love them, but I've never seen such a close minded group of fucktards. You'd think I'd learn to not engage them in political arguments by now, but evidently not. ::deep breaths::
Windows is a TW. I lost all of my work from yesterday because Windows shut down, without notice, for "updates" and didn't auto-save the work that I'd done.

I've banned political talk in front of DS1. FIL says some really asinine stuff that if DS repeated it I would be mortified. And its certainly not values that DH and I believe in.
DH is on my list. I've asked what he wants for his birthday again last night. He says he told me 4 things. No sir, you did not. You told me one and you said you would email a link so I got the right one. Also, stop trying to home projects with your dad. I've asked for a YEAR for ceiling fans. They are still not done. Oh, and you need to fix our porch stairs 5 months ago. These things aren't done because you want to do them with your dad who just came over to cut down some tree limbs cause he felt like it. How about the projects that NEED to get done rather than the projects your dad wants to do because he wants to play with the toys?
Customers at work. I set up a closing with you for today on Friday telling you everything you need. I confirmed with you yesterday and again said everything you need. You call me this morning because you can't find your title! You were explicitly told I can't do this loan unsecured! Thank you for wasting my time.
My SIL's cervix. 63 hours into induction and 1cm. Cervidil overnight twice, several doses of a pill (not sure which one) to help ripen the cervix over the last 24 hours, 3 days of pitocin and lots of labor ball bouncing. Craziness.

Maybe this is more a FFFC but I plan of letting DS hear all the political BS. My parents worked really hard to confuse the shit out of me. Some nights they'd turn on MSNBC, some nights it'd be Fox News. Then when they would start talking about political stuff in front of us they would argue one way, and then the other. I never knew who they sided with or what party they affiliated themselves with until I was much older and I told them I think if I could vote in this election I would vote for ____. It was confusing but it meant I had work through a lot of things. Today I'm really more of a libertarian but I normally choose a major party candidate when voting in elections.
yeah that was definitely a FFFC.
TW for the day is me. I have a charity fundraiser tonight and a ton of shit to do for our next event as well and I really just want to curl up in a ball and stay hidden until after Christmas. I'm being a shitty person about it because I know these are good causes and I honestly DGAF right now.
My twat. It's not working, it's hurting, and I may have to have it ripped open again and restitched.
I cringe every.single.time. you talk about this.
I am sorry you are going thru this.
I cringe every.single.time husband asks me to use it. Hehe, your post made me laugh hard though, so I promise not to talk about it again til it's fixed. Until then, thanks for the sympathy!

So being new, and apparently old, I'm struggling to figure out what the acronym TW Tuesday is. Also due to being new, and not sure what you are completely going through, this did remind me of when I had DS1 (hmmmm 16...cough cough....years ago...lol) and my incision came 'apart' in a half way point and my OBGYN used like a 'glue' to put it back together...no joke....It was one of the most bizarre things that have happened to my body and I completely forgot about it until this post. Anywhoo...sorry you are going through this. Good news is they should probably be able to fix you up....bad news is you will never forget about it...

abvintage, the problem that I run into is with in laws is every political discussion have some pretty ignorant comments about people who aren't white, middle-class Christians. While DH and I point out the ignorance in these comments during these conversations, I do not want DS1 to think these comments are ok or that DH and I agree with these things. DS1 is also at the stage where he is repeating everything he hears even a few hours after you don't think he heard it. So while he may not understand the impact of what he is saying, he thinks for world of his grandfather and would think nothing to repeat something that his grandfather said that had gotten some sort of reaction (be it positive or negative).

redandblue TW is twat waffle. And your glue story reminds me that I forgot to tell your guys that they used glue to "stitch" A's stomach after the second shunt was placed. He said it would fall off, and sure enough, two days later, I went to change her diaper and the purple glue ball was gone. I was digging around in her sleeper for like 5 minutes trying to find it lol. DH wasn't there when neurosurgeon said it would fall off, so when I said I was looking for the glue from her stomach, he flipped out. Lol.
That's not a TW story though. So I'm a tw today for being so all over the place.
My twat. It's not working, it's hurting, and I may have to have it ripped open again and restitched.
This happened to a lady on my first bmb. I think they used silver nitrate to fix hers, or they could cauterize it. I know that sounds awful, but I don't think they would reopen the original tear. I popped a stitch and never had it fixed after number two because I knew I wasn't done having kids. All the hugs to you.
I had extra tissue where they stitched me that had to be cut off and cauterized with silver nitrate at my 6 week PP checkup. It was not fun! FX that you can find some pain relief, anaberry!
stop it guise!! I cannot handle this talk of cauterizing down "there". ewww, cringe, cover my ears and sing mary had a little lamb her fleece was white as snow....
(says the lady who loves watching bloody horror movies all.the.time. but seriously no cauterizing the hoo ha.)
Me. I somehow deleted ds1's speech therapist's number from my phone. I need to cancel tomorrow's therapy because I have a doctors appt. So now I'm going to have to wait until she texts me tomorrow to say she's on her way to say 'hey, about that.. "
MIL's friend is a TW. She gave us a present for B I that included a Jesus Loves Me piggy bank. Ugh. I really don't like when people give me religious presents. I'm not religious. H is mildly religious but never ever speaks of Jesus or the Bible, etc. MIL is the same. So why do people assume we'll be raising our child as a Christian? I know she's just trying to be nice... Maybe I'm a TW. It just rubs me the wrong way.

Yeah my parents friends bought us a "crib cross" and H and I are not religious. I'm smiling an nodding and trying not to be annoyed.
I thought I was going to say my team leader is the TW this week. She's still a giant TW, but turns out my husband's boss wins. He gets two weeks of vacation per year. He put in to take a week off in December and his boss said no because they're really understaffed.
She's on vacation this week.
ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME??
Edited to clarify: she said no one could take any vacation at all for the rest of the year, and she said that to him in August when she grudgingly gave him time off to help me after I had a C section. So she's not talking about a holiday shortage. It's an overall problem because they're down 3 physicians on his team. And yet... she's allowed to take vacation while my husband works 100+ hour weeks. Awesome.

Yeah that is weird. The only time I give people religious gifts is for christenings, first communions, and confirmations.
I have two that are connected. 1)cold sores (I've gotten them since I was a kid and one popped up yesterday. 2) my GP for telling me all the awful things that can happen to W if he gets my cold sores and after I tell her I've been washing my hands like crazy and not kissing him she tells me it's probably too late anyway. No emotion, doesn't even look up from her computer. What is the point of telling me that if I can't do anything about it now (other than worry)? 3)the seemingly constant state of anxiety that I am harming my child in unknown ways. Eta: my GP also sucks because she left us waiting for an hour.
My mom. At every meal, without fail "Oh Eliza, would you like some of (insert whatever I'm eating)?? Oh wait, you'll get some later!! Tee hee!!" That "joke" is barely humorous the first time. By the 385927492th time, it just makes me stabby.

+1 and a WooHoo for open political discussion of both sides in front of the babies! Also yay libertarians!
