I think my Opinion is Unpopular

I don't mind the TMI threads.

[sweetpies]

I think before calling CPS on someone, all facts should be gathered about the situation. Authorities should only be called if the child is hurt or in imminent danger. Authorities shouldn't be called because something bad COULD have happened.

I prefer them to having the TMI thrown into the randoms thread.  Some people need a place to share such things, and I'd prefer the heads up.

This. There is TMI and then there's good god you should never speak that aloud to anyone ever.

YES. I don't want a surprise TMI without a warning! Everyone has a different threshold for grossness, so at least you know what you are getting into with the thread.

I don't like Toms. Except on kids or babies. I rank them down there with Crocs.

girl, Toms and Crocs are not even close to being on the same level.

I think you should not wear sandals if your heels are dry and flaky.

This! I do wear croc flip flops though.

I bought Toms once and the two shoes were visibly different sizes. Never again! Not worth spending that much on a pair of crappy shoes.

I know this has been discussed before... I am all for moms being able to sah by doing direct sales makeup, jewelry, thrive patches... whatever pays the bills, BUT I am soooo over being sold. It seems like I am added to a sales group on FB or get a pm every other day trying to get me to buy, sign up, come to a party. Just stop!!

Yes, I have one obnoxious FB friend who always says something about supporting her so she can stay home with her kids. No!

Amen, sister. My favorite was being solicited to buy thrive "to lose a significant amount of weight".

Guilty.

But what about people with psoriasis? Should they be deprived of sandal wearing?

I have decided that people who send me a PM or add me to MLM groups from  now on are going to be deleted from my friends list.

I deleted my FB about a month ago. While there is a few things I miss about it, overall I'm glad I did it. I realized I genuinely DGAF about 50% or more of my "friends." Like, I don't care what someone I went to elementary school with is doing for Valentine's Day. I'm not missing those type updates at all!

ETA: I assume this is an UO because so many people IRL think it's weird I deleted it.

They can do whatever they want, but I wouldn't want to go out looking like that. They make sandals that cover the heel.

I'm going to take this to the next level, I don't think you should wear sandals without your toes polished.

Yes! At the very least, put a shiny clear polish on them. But, personally, I must have polish on my toes at all times. They've probably been covered in polish the last 20 years.

Yep, that too.

[bobloblaw]

I usually only have my toenails buffed towards the end of pregnancy since I can't always reach to touch up. I figured shiny and healthy looks better than chipped polish.

I always used to have my toenails painted, until J was born. Now I am super duper lazy about it. As in, I'm currently sporting this look - that's polish on a grand total of 3 toes - because I'm too lazy to remove old polish from before Christmas. ? I just put J down for a nap, maybe I'll fix my toes.

Ok, fixed! They are now a sparkly magenta, all 10 of them. Painted with all the skill of any random 4 year old.

I don't agree with piercing baby/little girls ears.

How little are we talking? I was 4 or 5 when I got mine done, but I asked my mom to get them pierced.
