How to Tell if You are a NEWB

sleepy33

As a spin-off from the UO about the recent influx of randoms (which I totally concur with), let us define what we are talking about, so all of our lovely ladies who may not be every-day posters do not worry.

Do you have roughly > 100 posts to your name?
Do you have a real avatar pic?
Do you have a ticker in your sig?
Do you post on the board at least once a month, unless precluded from such due to extenuating life events (move, extended vacay, etc)?

If the answer to these questions is YES, then you are NOT A NEWB!

@MrsStuessyWI and @CMireles2 : not newbs!

Sidenote:  if your nursery is wicked, magazine-quality cute and/or your L&D story is super interesting (I'm thinking of you, bowel obstruction lady) then I will prob still read your AW post.

Lol "bowel obstruction lady". Such a sweet nickname.

MrsStuessyWI

Good. I was legitimately worried there for a few minutes. I freaking love this board so it is nice to know I am a part of it.

I know, I should look up her actual SN. Which I don't know, cause she's a newb, but she's interesting, so she gets a pass.

I definitely agree. I mean deft.

Adding that to the list. If you use 'deft' appropriately in a sentence and know what Moon Moon is, not a newb.

i hate tickers (for me), but i like seeing every one else's so i know how far along they are. unless they have more than one ticker for the same baby/child. then it's not okay.

This sounds a little like a Jeff Foxworthy skit.



I'll get us started.  You might be a n00b if
...you insult @petdocd or @kimbo1216 and don't realize that's gonna go south real fast for you
...you aren't sure who @cousinvicki is
...you don't know why I get called out every week on HDBD

LOL . . .

 

Thx for that.

 

Can we add this to the smilie thingies?

 

 

tmccord21

Also if you are unaware of 

1- who Batmandi aka BSCmandi is

2- Why we use Deft instead of Definitely 

3- What a moon moon is

4- Have not read the infamous Pram Post

If at any point you say to yourself.

Then start your research cause you will not get the jokes.

You might be a newb if:
-You think @huntjul has a vet
-You don't know that @DH13 has a pool
-You think that @Gwyneddlesliegrace doesn't have a recipe/sewing pattern for a single thing on your baby registry
-You did not know that @sooner1981 's husband is a neonatologist
-You don't know about @Amjoy25 's "name thread-gate"

I could do this all day

All day, son!

...when you hear "the wolfpack" you either think of The Hangover or Twilight.

Confession: I may or may not be planning a post-baby drinking game involving some of these frequently-posted items.

This is my favorite thread ever.

You know you're a newb if @cousinvicki hasn't called you out to insinuate that you are doing life wrong.
