Lets get a little crazy--UnPop OP and FFFC

Since we're coming up on a holiday weekend, I propose we throw caution to the wind and do an end of the year free for all.  Bring on your Unpopular Opinions and your Flame Free Confessions!!

Re: Lets get a little crazy--UnPop OP and FFFC

  • I don't want to be a stepmom. I know I have to be nice to FI's older daughter, but she is a spoiled brat (not FI's fault) and I secretly have a low tolerance for being around her.

    pampyles! I sent you a PM yesterday after your "tease" post. Not sure if you ever saw it.

  • I can't stand the behavior of my maid of honor's little girl and I cringe at the thought of her being in my wedding. I am allowing her to be in the wedding because both of her parents are in the wedding party. I blame the parenting though. The girl lacks social skills and is quite the difficult one.

    Unpopular Opinion: I can't stand Blue Cheese

  • I get really sick of BF moms making FF moms feel guilty.  I seriously want to throatpunch a lot of the BF moms I come across because they keep trying to make me (and others like me) feel guilty about FF.  It's not poison, and I have my reasons, so STFU.

  • FFFC - I am super pissed and hurt that SO's ex didn't get DD anything for Christmas. I have gotten his 2 boys gifts every Christmas since we've been together (11 years) and my family has gotten them gifts also. You would think that their biitch of a mom would be considerate and send something for DD. Nope, nothing. I truly, TRULY, dislike her and not just for this. She's an all around pain in the ass, but I think this was really low.

     

  • my ffc is that i haven't driven since 2000.  it wasn't really an issue until we moved to the suburbs this summer and I am still not driving...

    also dh is making fun of me right now saying i'll make ds crazy b/c I am wearing a mask while I nurse him b/c I have a cold.

     

  • I can't stand my little niece and nephew sometimes.  They are out of control and always up in DS face at family get togethers.  "Back off kids".

  • Here's my UnPop Op--I think some of the bumpies majorly lack social skills and class.  I can't stand for someone to vent or to come to the boards looking for support and the response they get be "I'm a perfect mommy, sorry you aren't."

    (I'm not referring to the whole Lilly thing.  There have been several posts in the last week of ladies saying they felt overwhelmed, etc and there is always a "I love being a mommy and my whole life is perfect." response.  If you don't have anything supportive to say, then STFU.

  • I already did my FFFC, but my unpopular opinion is that I think people can get a little too "self-righteous" about parenting on the bump.

    I get the same *** from some FF moms who think that BF is "ridiculous" and that trying to go for the full year is "gross"

    Who cares how people feed their kids right?? As long as they are being fed.

  • I have another UnPop Op--I can see both sides of not putting the PPD board in the left column.  No it isn't anything to hide and putting it out there for everyone to see in the left column shows that it's an issue that LOTS of new moms face. 

    But I could also see that not everyone suffering with PPD would want their thoughts and feelings put out in public for anyone to see.  Yes it's a public message board, and anyone can look at it, but not making it super easy for everyone else to look at limits that.  You know there are some people on the boards (not ours but across all the boards) that would repost something and make fun of it (insensitive and classless, yes, but we've seen it before on other issues)  It's kind of "out of sight, out of mind" to the snarky biotches that like to start drama.

  • my ffc is that i let truett watch tv...often, probably more often than he should, but he loves it!

    I don't post much (shyEmbarrassed ) but I notice this too.  I now of one post that someone did that and I immediately thougtht "WTH kind of support is that".

    Exactly!  I want to say, "When I stop feeding my child altogether, then you can talk."

  • I think the "Should I POAS" posts are annoying.  Why ask a bunch of internet strangers if you should POAS for any other reason than call attention to yourself?

    As someone that doesn't care when you last had unprotected sex, go ahead lady, POAS.  Go nuts and pee on 12 of them.

    Wow...um thanks for your honesty? In all reality that is some uncalled for shizz.  I know it's unpopular opinion but seriously.

  • I secretly like the drama that the HAB stir up every now and again...not all of it but some of it.

    I think it's effed up when people complain about being asked to donate to charity. If more people donated they wouldn't ask for your help...

    Even though I know my husband loves me, I secretly worry that if I dont lose weight, he'll stop being attracted to me even though we hump like rabbits now-a-days

    I really dont care when you start solids so I dont really care to hear about it

    Im sad to see so many bumpies graduate to 6-12 but there are one or two who simply cannot leave fast enough

    LOL!

  • Sometimes I get the urge to post a picture of a horses azz just to see how many responses I get. I am pretty sure I will get more relipes on that picture than I do with legit questions I have about my DD and it pisses me off.

    You should do an experiment. Post a random baby question and then later a horse-ass pic. Fun on a quiet day :)

  • 1 - Anti-vaccine nonsense makes me see red.  Vaccines have saved more lives than anything except clean water in this world; they are not a conspiracy dreamed up by the CDC to poison your child.  No one has yet been able to articulate to me why they think the government has an interest in protecting bad vaccines or bad ingredients at the expense of kids' lives.

    2 - I am not enjoying the newborn phase with DD#2 (didn't much with DD#1 either).  I am climbing the walls at home and am SO happy to be going back to work next week.  Any yearnings I may have had about ever having a third kid are COMPLETELY gone.

  • My brother is an idiot...I won't go into details, but last year he "forgot" to get my mom a gift for Xmas and in the family drawing with extended family, he "forgot" to get a gift for his person and my mom had to give a way a $50 gift certificate she had received as a gift. This year, he didn't get DS anything and forgot to bring bread and a salad to Christmas dinner. He did bring a dessert though...he was assigned a pie, so he brings a graham cracker crust and a can of peach pie filling. WTF can you make with that???

    Annoying. I strongly dislike him.

  • It annoyed me on the tri boards when someone would post about all the crap they ate, like, "Ha, I ate lunch meat four times today and washed it all down with three cokes." Like, we all took risks we were comfortable with but it's like some people like to brag about how much of a rebel they are...seemed childish to me.

    Oh, me too!  It was also kind of insulting to any moms who did try to stay away from those things.

    I couldn't agree more! Good for you. You're comfortable eating those things. Don't we all feel like arses for being cautious...riiiight.

  • The guy who attempted to blow up the plane over Detroit was taken to the hospital, where our tax dollars went to care for him.  WTF?  I don't want to pay to have his poor burned legs looked after.  They should have thrown him in jail with an ice pack and gauze.  The jack@ss nearly killed 250 people.  He doesn't even deserve that.

    You DO ask the most interesting questions that are on people's minds!!!

    Oh and if it weren't for 'less than photogenic babies' the world would be a boring and homogenous place non? To each his/her own. If that's unpopular, I'm totally okay with that.

    Coffee later?

    FFFC: DS has ptosis of the eyelids (droopy lids) and I worry that rude bumpies (like pp) think he's not cute. What's worse is that I don't want him to run into people like that IRL. Luckily nobody has said anything to me IRL but even after it's corrected his eyes wont look  completely "normal." I don't want his eyes to be the first thing people comment on.

    unpopop: I think body scanners at airports are complete invasion of privacy and are against my constitutional rights.  I get pissed everytime I go to an event and have to open my purse for security while DH can walk in with a gun on his belt and hasn't been stopped once. (he's in law enforcement)

    1st of all, your son is gorgeous and if ppl don't first see that beautiful smile than they are ridiculous!

    But ..... really? I hate that we have to have scanners at airports. But much rather have my privacy invaded than die at the hands of a terrorist... kwim?
