Here is my UO. There are couple Regs who I can't help but roll my eyes at them every time they post. I know people would totally disagree with me. I wish we could start Bitch out a Bumpie thread.
We all need to be knocked down a peg every once in a blue moon. It's good for personal development. I'm game (I don't have anyone in mind to bitch out, but I can take the criticism).
I think the Bitch out a Bumpie thread is best after the beginning of the 3rd tri. That way people know each other better and/or the person has been waiting to call out said person for something they did or said. Those are always fun. I already have a list going on my mental post it.
I am not going to remember in three months what I did a week ago to piss someone off lol! Maybe that is the best time to do it? I'll be like shit, did I do that? Sorry!

I really don't care much what people on an open, public Internet forum think of me. I'm FAR more concerned about the people I know IRL.
This and I don't give a fuck what people IRL think of me either. I used too, but then I ran out of fucks.
I was going to say pretty much the same thing. I really try to be nicer irl than I am here. But I think I fail at that most of the time.
My UO is that the whole Bill Cosby thing makes me sad. Of course for the women who were most likely raped/assaulted, but also because it ruins this whole idea I had of him. Literally the day before the news broke I was listening to an interview with him and his wife on NPR regarding their massive donation to National Endowment for the Arts and I was like, see there should be more people like them. Uh... Or not.

Oh ill remember. I have one poster who is on my permanent mental post it. I remember a few weeks back poster said that she hated her stepson and wish he would just disappear. I wanted to call her out so bad. Stupid bump waiting period.

@Y0urm0m and here I was nervous it was me you wanted to call out haha. Also I understand complaining but that seems a little out of line to say that about a family member...
My UO is also about Bill Cosby. While I think his acts over the years were inexcusable and I hope justice is served for his victims, Bill Cosby will not ruin my view of Heathcliff Huxtable and what The Cosby Show did for the African American family and community.

I know already there are a few regular posters who don't like me and I am totally 100% A-OK with it. I certainly am not forcing anyone to like me. Except @ButterMyBiscuit. She has to like me.
Y0urm0m I remember this. It is still f'ed up that she thinks that way. You have to know that having a baby with a man that already has a child will become your responsibility at some point. Whether it's on the weekends only or every single day you will have to take care of that child at some point. She is just a selfish person.

After what @Y0urm0m said... Did anyone else think immediately shit what did I say that may have pissed someone off and they didn't tell me ? Maybe I'm too self conscious.
I'm not even sure if I would call myself a regular poster haha
As someone who is a step child after readin that I genuinely worry! My step mom has kids of her own and she has never once said anything like that and she always makes sure I know that I am part of the family. I know that having a child of your own is totally different than a step child but you should never make them feel less. I hope that poster was just having a bad day and that's not how she really feels.

I work on the assumption that I have pissed off or annoyed quite a few people here at any given time. I know I have some less than desirable personality traits, and probably could work on becoming more likable, but I'm just lazy as shit. Besides, it's not really my issue if someone doesn't like me, right? I'm the one occupying space in their brain, not the other way around.
That being said, I also don't reserve any energy for disliking anyone. I may dislike what people have to say, but the only two people on here I really dislikes have either been banned or ignored by me. Again, I'm just way too lazy.
@msuzannah I'm also a stepchild with step siblings, but thankfully I always felt loved and wanted by my stepmom. But my dad and stepmom also both came into the relationship with equal numbers of kids (3 each), so they put themselves out equally.
As far as anti-vaxxers go, I totally don't get it. The worst part is that over half of my friend group fall on the don't vaccinate to delayed schedule vaccinations spectrum and even though I agree with them on most of their other parenting decisions, I have A LOT of side eye for that. And yeah, stop trying to convince everyone else to stop vaccinating because the safety of your child depends on the rest of us making the responsible choice.
@elenabrent I'm going to sound like a terrible person but maybe a few antivaxers need their kids to get sick (then cured) but if stop thinking they are invincible because most responsible people vaccinate they would realize the idiocy of their ways.
Every time I hear someone go off on an anti-vaxxer tangent I think of Dr. House and his talk of 'itty, bitty, baby coffins' and I get smad (sad/mad). My cousin stopped vaccinating her kids because one of her kids was diagnosed super high functioning on the spectrum (he really only has aversions to the way certain things 'feel'), but she also thinks her oldest son might be gay because he prefers the female family members over the male family members. The logic(?) is mind boggling.
Honest question, is delayed schedule for vaccines really bad? I have a friend spread them out a little because she just hated seeing her son go through so many at one time. I didn't think it was that big of a deal? Not sure now.

The saddest part is that it's not usually the kids of the anti-vaxers that get sick. Some good friends of ours lost their infant daughter because she was exposed to whooping cough before she could get vaccinated. That's my beef with it - fine, make stupid decisions for your own kids, BUT the reality is that it affects other people that don't have the choice or ability to get vaccinated.

The main risk I know is it just leaves them vulnerable for a lot longer than they have to be. I guess while no one likes shots I would rather soothe my little ones tears than risk not having them.
@fleurdelakeview Most people aren't scientifically literate enough to understand how 'herd immunity' is designed to work. I'm so sorry to hear about your friends' loss. That's awful.
@Nerdchild That's part of it but a study recently showed that the majority of people who choose not to vaccinate are educated, white, and wealthy. It's actually more likely to be associated with privilege, which means they should know better but are just ignoring the science because "OMG vaccines cause autism" (which they don't) or whatever.
**packs up soapbox bc I don't need to preach to the choir** Speaking of which, it's nice to find the bump NOT full of crazy anti-vaxxers because I would have run screaming in the other direction!

At least based on the topics covered this week. And I say this as a completely obsessed mother to my pug.
