I’m loving the fact that the number of love tits on a post tells me right away if a UO is in fact popular. I’m assuming most people aren’t persnickity enough to be like “I only love it if I think it’s a truly UNpopular opinion...”
I’m lifting my self-imposed ban of recapping food UOs. Don’t make me regret it. ETA: I regretted it. Ban is back on.
Executive Summary:
Re: UO Recap: Happy August Edition
Page 1:
acaudill75 feels glazed donuts are far superior to all other donuts. Mixed.
BostonKisses2 thinks scrunchies need to come back in style. Extremely popular, just like she is.
Mom2Oli thinks donuts are nasty. Mostly unpopular.
Brandi Bee still thinks skinny jeans are stupid. Still fairly popular.
Soxgirl07 hates the word cunt. Fairly popular.
sgreen13 is a secretary who is fine with being called a secretary and not an administrative assistant. I like it. To me a secretary is a person who keeps secrets. Sounds all spy and shit.
pearlsonthebeach hates animal print. I think we’ve done this before, it’s always fairly mixed.
CinemaGoddess thinks Mission Impossible 4 is better than the previous 3. I haven’t seen it, but it’s not unusual for a part 4 to be able to go in a new direction and refresh a series.
CinemaGoddess doesn’t want to choose between Chris Pine and Paul Rudd.
kellijo1013 doesn’t fucking like casual use of the word fuck. That’s fucking crazy! I’m not sure she will get along with us. Unpopular. “Swearing is jewelry for sentences” - CinemaGoddess
Packerfan79 doesn’t think veterinarians should hunt. Controversial and Discussion Inducing
Page 2:
Manneek1977 liked the first Aliens v. Predator movie (I thought it was entertaining but flawed, particularly the happy feel good ending). She liked it more than Prometheus or Predator.
kimandhuck doesn’t like tits and pussy and thinks they are unlady-like. Ladies are overrated. Not popular.
shanado thinks just because it’s summer doesn’t mean every single minute of every day has to be filled with fun activities for the kids. SUPER Popular.
M&MHaveMyHeart thinks having a job is overrated. She’s right, but having money is perfectly rated. Fairly popular.
Page 3:
-discussion of what you call your bit during lovemaking fucking
KaramelSutra won the thread, possibly the internet today.
Page 4:
Existentialist thinks dirty talk is unnecessary. It’s not “necessary”, but it can be hella fun. DISCUSSION INDUCING.
Darbie loathes lingerie showers. I’m a lingerie fan, but yeah, the shower aspect seems really unnecessary. Especially if it’s a grown ass woman with a drawer full of lacy underthings. Maybe if the bride is like, 20 or something? Then again, there probably are some ladies who seriously need to upgrade their mojo in that category. But if there is food at booze at the shower, it’s just a party excuse, right?
-more sex talk. It’s Parenting’s third favorite topic behind fangirling and food. fredalina’s H prefers cock.
KlondikeBar is upset people were giving Amanda Berry a hard time for attending a local music festival. Seriously? I hadn’t heard about that but holy shit, that makes me mad. She should go to all the music festivals ever, for free. She deserves to have all the fun and feel normal. And seriously, she’s brave being able to do that. I have to imagine crowds and public spaces where she is vulnerable would make her feel uneasy.
Page 5:
-deer jerky!
-meat processing talk. The Jungle, anyone? Fast Food Nation? (that book kinda sucked, TBH)
Page 6:
mandelbread thinks adult women fawning over teen sensations is a bit ridiculous.
mandelbread had a bunch of other minor UOs that have been discussed in recent weeks (50SOG, new format).
kimandhuck likes fruit in desserts. I do too!
Page 7:
jak554 doesn’t like how celebrities set a high bar for how fancy you must be on everything. Or, you could just consider saying “Fuck Kim K and Gwyneth’s overpriced tastes”?
EllaHella hates black tie weddings. I’ve actually never even been to one, because SoCal. Flip-flops are formal wear, yo. Fairly popular
Betsy Scoutkate thinks Waterbugs are sweet and should be named and kept as pets. D’Awwwwwwwwwwww!
Manneek1977 thinks RPM was the best season of Power Rangers. ORIGNAL SERIES 4 LYFE! I still wanna Pink Ranger Amy Jo Johnson... I mean... gymnast?
-types of meat we eat
ReeseFox doesn’t think kids should get paid for cleaning their room or doing their laundry. Seemed popular
Page 8
ReeseFox doesn’t find most of the men posted about here attractive. Nor my taste in ladies.
-oh look, more food talk. Ban reinstated.
-epidural talk
Page 9:
Wine O Mite thinks being single is better than being married. Mixed.
Onederful Mother thinks sometimes you just have to resort to name calling. It can be a useful tool, but you have to make sure you keep the high ground and are the more clever one.
LuckyDad thinks the world needs more fun exercise video games like DDR. Somewhat Popular.
Page 10:
sgreen13 thinks Perkins is way better than Waffle House or Cracker Barrel. Perkins is ok, Waffle House is the bomb, yo. Best southern road trip food.
-more food preferences, guise.
kiraliz2 hates 2+ story houses. But how would I get exercise otherwise? Although in the Summer, man, the upstairs is an oven!
ItsAllGravy7 is super sad for Summer to be over. She also points out how weird it is that it’s the start of August and people are talking about Summer like it’s over already. Fucking back to school shopping and football training camps.
Page 11:
-Summer talk.
"Man, be creative. Like the stuff you do. Do nice things. Love respectfully. Laugh a fucking lot. Curse when you feel like it. Life is cool." - Jean Grae
“I’d marry again if I found a man who had $15 million and would sign over half of it to me before the marriage and guarantee he’d be dead in a year.” - Bette Davis
Have you watched all the episodes to make up for it? Some of the references are a little 90s, but some are KLASSIC!
Andplusalso @cinemagoddess I think you are quite witty!
I'd like to go this direction too. We'll see how we end up playing it down the road.
