@tyrion_ SOrry I missed the Peggy!  I've been out sick... even got some steroids today and everything.  *sigh*   What 'kind' of hateful was she?

@b_1029 you too!  

@millpe Actually, back earlier in my days of TTCAL, when I was a lot less jaded than I am now... DH continually would be like "I don't feel like it" during my FW and then during TWW he was ALL over me.  I irritatingly went along but explained multiple times how important it was to DTD during the FW.  So, cycle three rolls around it's the FW and he's all like "I'm not interested... wah...." and I'm like, "mofo, this shit is happening tonight or tomorrow night. Get it together!"  The shit did not happen.  Legit 2 days later he's like "OH, you're soooo sexy" and I was like "BITCH, you are now gonna WAIT 4 weeks... we aren't doing it til a few days before O."

@dpchickens she was a “you don’t deserve kids and lol I can get pregnant and you can’t” Peggy. The worst kind. 

inthewoods23

I can't decide which was worst, the Peggy who wished infertility on all of us, or this last Peggy saying we don't deserve kids 😕

gingermama29

@inthewoods23 both Peggies are "fire-them-into-the-sun" worthy in my book. 

dpchickens

@inthewoods23 Ugh. Yuck!  Well, I've already got both of those, which is why I've no problems wishing things back on them... 

inthewoods23

@gingermama29 sadly that's not even the worst! The worst Peggy was the first thread they had ever deleted. It was like 300+ comments before they finally shut it down. She was the definition of nasty.

mvt2003

@inthewoods23 Dang I feel like I missed that one! I feel like things have gotten much nastier in recent months - way more deleted threads. 

kpearse99

I'm way behind but @tyrion_ HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! I hope you had a wonderful day!!!

inthewoods23

@mvt2003 I don't remember when it happened, may have been the beginning of this year or late last year. I didn't even see the last 150 comments or so because I was driving home. I had to ask what had happened and found out shit REALLY hit the fan after 1 particular offensive comment from the Peggy.

But from that thread, before it went crazy, I found out from said Peggy that there's a chart of penis girth to length with colors in the chart indicating what combinations of length and girth are the most satisfying and she was looking for a man who fit into the combinations of most satisfying. So first it was she's quite the wacko to very hurtful and crazy wacko.

b_1029

@inthewoods23 this sounds vaguely familiar...was that on the BOTB board?

mvt2003

@inthewoods23 Now that is very interesting info to have! I do get some of the weirdest info on here, like the girl who told me about the existence of a "pregnancy psychic." I came darn close to parting with the $30 just to hear the crazy for myself, until that girl left TTGP to join the next month's BMB but the psychic had told her it wouldn't happen until December.  

emeraldduchess

@inthewoods23 I think I remember that thread. Was that the same one who was just looking for someone to knock her up, no strings attached? 

inthewoods23

@b_1029 I think that may have all been on the MC/loss board but I can't remember. I think she had posted both here and there. I'd give the specifics of the comment she made but I don't want to trigger anybody.

@mvt2003 that reminds me of the chick who was absolutely convinced she was having twins and that they would arrive on her birthday which was 3 weeks after her due date. Like yeah ok, twins, if that is in fact what you're having, typically come a little early. Also even with a singleton nobody goes 3 weeks past their due date. This gem may have been in the 1st Tri board from a while ago but I really don't know. But it was a great read lol

dpchickens

@emeraldduchess Yeah, the no strings attached chick... BUT only if he had the 'correct' penis size.  If not, apparently she was gonna tell him to zip up and take it elsewhere.

inthewoods23

@dpchickens @emeraldduchess lmao yep! It was bonkers. She wanted a guy with particular traits and also a particular member because she didn't want her sons to have a small one. Man did people rip on her about that.

emeraldduchess

@inthewoods23 oh yes...I remember when she posted in the loss board. That was awful. 

inthewoods23

@emeraldduchess that was not a fun day for anyone 🙁

mvt2003

Side note: 1st Tri is having The Invasion of the Peggys! I'm over here like: 

dpchickens

@mvt2003 Right!?!  I personally loved the 'I apparently can't find the PG test thread, so I'll just create my own!'  Like... seriously!?!?  
PLUS, if you had a quantitative HCG blood test... why the F are you peeing on sticks anyway!?!?  

mvt2003

@dpchickens SERIOUSLY!!!!! And not only did she create her own, she did it a freaking second time!!!! 

I weep for humanity. 

dpchickens

mvt2003 Wish I'd gotten in on that action before it was closed.  *sigh*  REALLY wanted to ask her some things. Like, WHY she got a quant test in the first place. If it's been 2 days, didn't the re-test (like, the ENTIRE point of a quant test to begin with?), and like, her history, cause as far as I'm aware, doctor's don't just go handing out quant tests like candy...  esp not with a result like 7... 

ETA:  Cause if she's a RPL sufferer, then she should KNOW how PG tests work... and quant tests.  So I just am CONFUSED

tyrion_

@mvt2003 I remember her. I remember being like “a psychic predicting pregnancies. Now I’ve heard it all.” I’m glad someone here called her out for being upset she might have to try for a few months.

**Lurking

@inthewoods23 I was born 22 days overdue.  And still a c-sect.   But you're right... they don't do that anymore. 

ETA clarification

tyrion_

@shamrocandroll WHAT 😳😳😳😳

shamrocandroll

@tyrion_ Yup!  Due May 1, born May 23!  😳

saladflambe

<-- that cat has stolen my arm & is using it as a pillow.

Evidence:

Carry on.

inthewoods23

*TW just for referring to other people's kids*
My cousin's wife both times now has gone 2 weeks over. And actually so was my sister but my mom got induced because the sac was running out of fluid. My sister probably would have never left if they didn't jump start it.

mvt2003

@saladflambe You didn't need that arm anyway, and it rightfully belongs to your cat regardless (that was part of the cohabitation agreement that you signed if you recall) so tough luck getting it back.  

inthewoods23

@saladflambe it was nice knowing you 😆

saladflambe

@mvt2003 ...but...but...

saladflambe

@inthewoods23 tell my husband I loved him.... and to take out the goddamned trash

mvt2003

@saladflambe

dpchickens

@saladflambe Not only will he NOT take out the trash, just to spite you... he'll probably light some incense for your death shrine to 'cover' the smell... 

gingermama29

@inthewoods23 omg I think I remember that Peggy thread about length. I was lurking during that time and it was insane. I think the BGs deleted most of the threads that Peggy had participated in. Didn't she supposedly have some sort of science degree? 

inthewoods23

@gingermama29 yes that was a whole thing too that everything she stated was fact with sited studies and references and apparently all the sited studies the regulars would post were false and blah blah blah or she'd post some study that proved another study wrong. It was madness.

inthewoods23

I found the perfect Halloween costume for all of us!

emeraldduchess

Haha...discount Winnie Sanderson!
ETA my students requested that my computer wallpaper for October be a scene from "Hocus Pocus". 😁

PSA: Trader Joe's has chocolate hummus. It tastes like brownie batter! 😍

mvt2003

Coming up for air and a quick Bump break during this massive work project. Let's just add in the fact that I'm now going to have to work this weekend (but will get overtime for it because I'm hourly, so oh well) and now I need wine. At least MH won't be able to get pissy about how much my girls' dinner will cost Sunday because I'll have gotten a few hours of overtime to offset it haha!

NYTino24

*TW others’ announcements mentioned* 

Two coworkers wives are KU. Found out #1 after my negative beta and #2 after AF came. I am especially happy for them because they went through IF, but I’m also happy I work with the guys and not the women so I don’t have to actually see it. Maybe that’s a FFFC.
