Let's hear them! 
**Not guaranteed to be flame free**

@gingermama29 LOL looks like we both changed ours at the same time, too. 🤣

Regarding yesterday’s driveby.... I definitely didn’t know or missed the hocus pocus “rule” but I was pretty stoked everyone thought I knew what was going on lol

mvt2003

@b_1029 take the credit and run, girl!!!

Mine is that I am probably going to be that person that ends a friendship over the status of our womb(s). You can see my rant in the WTF thread that I keep resurrecting from Wednesday but *TW*  the moral of the story is one of us is KU and the other one isn't (me, if that wasn't obvious lol) and the pregnant one is acting super insensitive about it. I can't even blame jealousy, I'm just mad that she doesn't seem to give a f*** about my feelings.

@b_1029 It’s not really a rule, I was being silly to draw away from the awful Peggy. Someone suggested that for the month of October we respond to them with Hocus Pocus
gifs. 

mvt2003

@kiki047 Dude, mute that convo, walk the eff away. You are allowed to protect yourself!  

kiki047

@mvt2003 oh she's been muted for a while so I can decide when and how I want to interact with her but her responses were a real wake up call. I felt like I was overreacting but then I was mad at myself for dismissing my own feelings. Pretty sure I'm done.

@kiki047 - I’m sorry but that’s a dick move on her part. I don’t think you’ll get any flaming here for that. 

I have a friend from grad school who has been TTC for over a year. She found out she has an autoimmune issue that was destroying her eggs. They are on round 3 of IUI with plans to move to IVF if it doesn’t take. I am so scared of causing her more pain that I sometimes block her from my FB posts so as not to rub my child in her face. My heart is just breaking for her. I haven’t at all mentioned to her that MH and I are planning on TTC starting next month. I’m sorry that your friend is not being considerate. 🙁

mvt2003

@kiki047 I think the worst part of it is that you had a plan in advance!!!!!! It's not like you're demanding she never speak to you about being KU ever again, just that she be a little more thoughtful about it. 

emeraldduchess

@kiki047 I know you weren't swearing at me. You are right, she should absolutely know better, especially since you had a conversation about this beforehand.  I am so, so sorry you're dealing with someone like that. 💚

meri-mac

Man, I always miss the drive-bys. What am I doing with my life ?

kiki047

@krystrist2014 that's so considerate of you to be aware of your friend's feelings like that. I want to believe I'll be like that in the future too but it pains me to know that my world is about to get even smaller because this "friend" is one of the reasons I've retreated so much from my social circles already.
@mvt2003 exactly! I had every intention of asking her about her scan because I knew how she was feeling going into it with TTCAL brain. But nope. 
@emeraldduchess thanks friend   you guys just brought me back down off the ledge. 
@meri-mac lol I also missed it. Probably good because I was fired up and ready for a fight last night. I probably would've gotten banned like our friend chickens.

babyodo

Oh, no! Did @dpchickens get banned? Tbh, I was fully expecting a PM from BumpAdmin giving me another warning for being a bog monster in that thread because Little Miss Prissy Peggy got her feelers hurt by our gifs, but what I said wasn't as bad as what has gotten me in trouble in the past.

And while we're on the topic, I wish I hadn't come back after the thread had been closed because her little nonchalant "I got a BFP" fly-by post really got my hackles up. Like, gee thanks for reminding me that yesterday would have been the start of my second trimester, but here I am on day 14 of bleeding after my recent MC. But, go ahead and enjoy your teen pregnancy, you insufferable twit.

bluetickgal

@kiki047 I’m so sorry your friend is being so inconsiderate...especially considering you talked about this beforehand! Sending so many hugs!! 💜 I don’t have much else to add that hasn’t already been said...but I don’t see much remorse in her comments and that would definitely sting! Hopefully distancing yourself helps...and maybe she will realize how hurtful/disrespectful she was being and actually give you the apology that you deserve! Hope you can work through it in the end, but if not...then I’d say it’s her loss!

*lurking*

@ttcbabyodo I don't know that I believe she was telling the truth about a bfp. I think she was trying to be hurtful. Just tell yourself she was lying, which makes her pathetic.

Line/group dances have been mentioned twice this week so I feel the need to confess my sins...

I will stop and join any and all line/group dances. I just can’t help it! Especially if I’ve had a few drinks. It’s on. It’s what I look forward to most at weddings. 

emeraldduchess

@tyrion_ my DH doesn't dance and I do, so a lot of the time group dances are the only thing I can do on the dance floor at weddings.

@ttcbabyodo I was definitely rage-y after the teen flyby, too.

When I first joined TB a few years ago, I thought QFP stood for "quit f*cking posting." Honestly that would work great for the Peggies though. 😂
