    You guys were vicious today, I can't even go back and address all of that.

    UO: Soda is bad. Not like unhealthy, not concerned about that. I don't drink it because I think it tastes bad. All soda tastes bad to me.

    I have crazy sensitive sinuses and carbonated beverages burn and itch, and that throws off the taste of the actual drink. I've apparently thought this way since my first sip as a child.

    I was never much of a soda drinker either. Now that you mention the sinuses aspect of it I had a physical reaction to reading that and remember that pain. I'd completely forgotten that was a thing! It's almost like getting chlorine in your nose...
  • FFTC- what is Moe's?  I've never heard of it before. 
  • @mileswithmyles - Moe's is where you go if you want something that's a small step above Taco Bell but not near as good as Chipotle :P
  • This discussion is part of the reason I don't have a dog and if I get one I would like a golden retriever. And I will pay for the training. 
    I like cats more than dogs generally.

    Another UO- I don't understand the hype around it and I have no desire to see "It." I also need all the scary clown crap to get off my social media!

    I had to read this twice because I kept asking myself "what is she talking about??" Than I figure out you meant the movie IT.

  • @lincbeesmom sorry!  Autocorrect uncapitalized!
  •  I live in the southwest.  The tacos I can get here are amazing.  Taco Bell, Moes and Chipotle are just awful.  I will miss this the most when we move again.

  • I don't like Taco Bell or moes and I have never ate at chipotle  :#
  • @yesthisiskim0401 - LOLing over your "this is where God gets his burritos" comment :lol:

    @Poppy715 - you and MW would get along famously. She was a Pinterest Mom before Pinterest was even a thing and she's been a Disney Mom for at least a decade. And yes, I still describe her as a "mom" before she had kids because she always has snacks, chap stick, and tissues in her purse no matter what. DW also loves a clean house. And honestly, cleaning up after our animals is much, MUCH harder than cleaning up after the toddler. The animals shed, poop, pee, chew, scratch, and leave trails everywhere. The child, while he makes a clutter mess, doesn't make the house dirty. I think I spend 20-30 minutes cleaning up after the animals, 15-20 after ourselves, and 10-15 after the toddler. I hate cleaning, though, so I often take DS on an adventure while DW scrubs down the house. Everyone wins!

    6. Obviously I love LLR but I think it's unnecessary to rag on direct sales companies all day. We don't sit around and discuss our hate for Kohls or something. Maybe I'm just sensitive about it because it's literally how I feed my family. (ETA I know the clothes aren't for everyone. But a lot of us are moms just trying to do something for our families so we can stay home) 
    I totally get this. And I should explain more I guess. They're not for me. I can't wear them to work 90% of the time because I only have so many long shirts and they aren't thick enough to constitute pants on us bigger girls. I also do enough nature walks and hike with my boys that they're too thin for so my fall back is my thicker danskin yoga-type pants/capris. And personally- whether lularoe, fabletics, danskin, it doesn't matter- I am not big on the busy patterns. Some are really cute, but the majority are just to loud for me.

    Now, with that being said, I am all for supporting friends who sell it. I am part of a LuLaRoe group that my friend from high school runs. She's a SAHM of 3 girls age 2-7. Do I buy from the page? no. But anyone that I know who is looking for leggings or is interested in even asking questions, I send her way because she runs a great business and I know she's doing it for her family (as well as supporting her own LLR addiction lol)

    So when I say I hate LLR, I mean the actual leggings, not the company itself and certainly not those who are using it to support their families :)

  • @ladystinson Have you tried any of the shirts or skirts? I like the solid leggings and have three or four pairs and only two with a pattern. I don't like the loud obnoxious patterns either. I like the solid shirts too. I only have two with a pattern and they are subtle. So I can understand those reasons for sure. But leggings are only one thing they offer.

    @sparkymcgeee I have. The solid black leggings are really comfy but too expensive and hard to come by to have very many. And the shirts are too clingy. I have too many lumps and bumps lol I dont want to have to wear spanx under something so relaxed  :D

    edit to add: I only wear skirt on special occasions. if my thighs touched anymore I'd be a legit mermaid lol so no skirts are comfortable to me. I also used to be a zoo keeper and a park naturalist, then I was a chef for a while, none of those really lend themselves to skirt so I've always just been more comfortable in pants

  • @kpc914 I only donate to serious misfortunes like illness, death (specifically seriously tragic and unexpected), and I've considered loss of property because of natural disasters. 
    Everything else just because you don't want to work for it or you manage your money terribly is not my responsibility.

  • @ladystinson TOTALLY understand that!! Like I said, it's absolutely not for everyone but I love that you support her on her page! Some of my biggest Supporters have never bought a thing from me. I don't care how much money someone spends. I care if they pop in to say hi on a live or comment or something. That makes a big difference!! 

  • @yesthisiskim0401 as I current consultant, I 100% agree with you. I didn't even see the new policy until you posted. That is the single most ridiculous thing I have ever read.

    I don't know any consultant that is happy with it. 
    It makes me so worried for all my current consultant friends and old downline. So many feel so insecure knowing they can change the rules without notice or care. The whole "blessing women's lives" tag line doesn't exactly work when you do this to people who have been in the process for over 4 weeks and had to click buttons and send emails saying they agree to the 100% buy back policy. 

    I wish you the the best with this company. I truly do. My hate for the company is more geared towards the high up people. 

  • @yesthisiskim0401 my sponsor's husband just got assigned overseas so she has to leave and I've been stressing out about that with her. I love love love what I do for my customers but I was pissed when that all came out. No one is happy with it.
