Re: Lurker Call Out-Cdn Thanksgiving edition
::Lurking Here::
I guess I lurk b/c I feel like I don't have much to add most of the time. DH and I have no children yet. We will hopefully begin TTC after Christmas. I have learned A LOT from all you ladies, I was pretty clueless when I first came here.
Pumpkin Pie is my favorite thanksgiving food.
I lurk from work. I am in and out a lot and really only check in a couple times a week. So, I feel lost a lot of the times.
I don't have a lot to say. Plus, I feel like if I just pop into a conversation without anyone knowing me that I will get the side eye.
Chicken and noodles!
FancyPants is lurking.
I lurk because I'm a newbie and I'm learning about the boards.
I post sometimes, usually polls or recipe stuff. I feel like I'll begin posting more as I've been here longer.
Butternut squash and stuffing.
Psssshhh. I spell it correctly. Just like colour, honour, and neighbourhood.
Yessss, I love it when you talk Canadian to me.
::snickers::
I am.
I lurk because most of you ladies are hysterical and keep me entertained.
I dont post because I come on at work and would have to post and run all the time. There have been times I want to add to the conversation but since I have yet to introduce myself I don't feel it's right to just butt in.
My favorite Thanksgiving food is mashed potatos- 2 scoops. One with gravy and the other with corn. Heaven.
Who's lurking? Moi.
Why do you lurk? It is easier for me to open posts and read than to one hand type while I nurse the baby.
Why do you not post? I do when I have something to add. But most of the time someone has already posted something similar, I am sure some would get annoyed if I only quoted and wrote "This."
Name your favourite thanksgiving food. I am going to pick a category. Dessert, I do not discriminate when it comes to sweets.

my currently-reading shelf:
:::raises hand::: I lurk regularly.
I started lurking because you ladies make me laugh. Then there were a few people on here whose stories I started following and have continued to follow for the past year or so.
I don't post because DH and I aren't thinking about TTC right now and I am not pregnant, so I don't "technically" have babies on the brain. I only have my baby on the brain right now.
Hands down - stuffing.
I lurk because you all rock
I just posted today. I was just waiting on the right time when I had something to say because I think intro's are dumb
I love all thanksgiving food, I just can't pick one!
I am lurking.
I lurk because the women here are an amazing bunch of women and are very entertaining. I don't post very often because no one really "knows" me and I don't really have much to say.
My favorite Thanksgiving food is Apple pie.
tamhen is lurking....
I am a quite person in real life and you would think I would be different online...but nope.
I don't post often because I feel some of my replies would go over like a lead balloon.
I love pecan (pronounced PA-CON, not pee-can) pie.
I'm here.
I lurk and not post because I feel like I don't have much to offer. I used to be a regular a looong time ago, before I got pregnant with my 2.5 year old. I like to keep up with the stories of some of the people on this board, as creepy as that might sound.
Green bean casserole.
I lurk because I usually don't have anything worth posting about, but I like this board and the ladies on it.
Favorite Thanksgiving Food: Potatoes, in any form, although my MIL's Cheesy Potatoes are quickly becoming my favorite
Why do you lurk? At the moment? Because it's slow at work. In general? I follow a couple BOTBers blogs so I come over to catch up occasionally. And I mean that in the least creepiest way possible.
Why do you not post? Hmm, IDK. I think intros are kind of lame but no one really knows me either.
Name your favourite thanksgiving food. Mac & cheese and my Gran's Oyster Dressing are the top two contenders. I can't choose between them.
Who's lurking? sevans is a lurky-loo
Why do you lurk? I enjoy the posts and also the bond that a lot of you "regulars" have...how you stick up for and support each other
Why do you not post? I don't know that I really have much to contribute and feel "dumb" that I'd never heard of charting until I lurked here.
Name your favourite thanksgiving food. Stuffing!
::waves::
I'm lurking
I started lurking because DH and I recently started ttc, so I was checking out the boards for info. I have continued lurking here because I enjoy reading all the different posts, and like the camaraderie on this board.
I haven't posted yet because I feel like I am still learning the ropes, and don't really have much to add yet. I'm also terrified of saying something incredibly newbie...ish and getting the side eye!
Favorite Thanksgiving food: sweet potatoes!
I'm lurking!
I lurk because y'all are hilarious and i like keeping up with everyone's bumps and babies
I'm not posting because DH and I are still several years out from having babies and so I don't feel like I have anything to contribute but I lurk to learn. Though I guess now after Leslie's comment I should start posting anyways
Fave Thanksgiving food: mashed potatoes and gravy and green bean casserole!
Who's lurking? I'm here off and on today.
Why do you lurk? I love keeping up with everyone!
Why do you not post? I'm afraid people won't "know" me because I'm not a regular and wonder why some "stranger" is responding the their post.
Name your favourite thanksgiving food. Dressing!

Lurker here...
I have been lurking for awhile now and I don't post because DH and I aren't TTC yet (January 1st!!). Because of this I'm not really sure which board I belong right now.
Cranberry sauce is my absolute favorite! yum!
My Blog
Dream of a better world...where chickens can cross the road without having their motives questioned.
Oh, and what leslie said.
If you aren't TTC right now, you are welcome here. This board has people from every walk of baby life.
Who's lurking? I am!
Why do you lurk? I lurk to learn. DH and I are at least a year from actually TTC.
Why do you not post? I post sporadically but I mostly lurk because I don't have anything of value to add.
Name your favourite thanksgiving food. Sweet potatoes. The kind with brown sugar, marshmallows and pecans! YUM.
I'm late but I want to play!
Who's lurking? Me!
Why do you lurk? I lurk because 1st tri and my month board are slow. Also because I follow your stories, and I love how you guys interact with each other (totally not creeptastic, I promise)
Why do you not post? 'Cos I feel like the shy new girl
Name your favourite thanksgiving food. dutch apple pie!
:pops head out the shadows:
I posted on BOTB at the beginning of the year but have been posting more on another board. I lurk because I have always been highly entertained by the posts here and because it isn't always about babies.
I just felt it would be weird for me to pop up again since I hadn't posted in a long time. I also commented more on people's posts instead of creating my own when I was on BOTB. Plus my siggy and avatar have changed since posting here so I am sure no one would recognize me.
Favorite Thanksgiving foods would be pecan-topped mashed sweet potatoes and pumpkin pie

Who's lurking? Dirty lurker Amelia here
Why do you lurk? Because y'all are entertaining and make my work day go by oh so much faster
Why do you not post? Because I'm skeeeeered! Y'all are like the cool clique in school and I'm afraid of rejection
Name your favourite thanksgiving food. Grandmother's dressing, or the crescent rolls. Carb addict right here.

Who's lurking? Me! I'm Becca.
Why do you lurk? I love the atmosphere of this board and that you have ladies with kids posting along with people who are pregnant, trying, etc.
Why do you not post? I have posted before and gotten great answers, I just don't like to post if I have nothing to add to the conversation.
Name your favourite thanksgiving food. Turkey- 100%...we don't eat it a lot for some reason so I always look forward to it!
Who's lurking? It's me, Lainie.
Why do you lurk? I like it here. Everyone is hilarious and I like keeping up with everyone.
Why do you not post? I post on existing threads every few days, but don't really start new posts because I rarely have anything that great to say.
Name your favourite thanksgiving food. That's a toss-up between oyster dressing and my turtle pie.
Who's lurking? tis me, melissa
tee hee
Why do you lurk? because a lot of you ladies are ridiculously entertaining
Why do you not post? i'm a bit intimidated
Name your favourite thanksgiving food. stuffing!
Why do you lurk? I don't know where I fit. I have shamelessly been lurking since 1st tri. I went to the loss board for a little while and then I found myself following the tri-boards along with my EDD and all the "regulars" I recognized from 1st tri. Now that they all have outside babies, I don't know where to go.
Why do you not post? I've only been lurking on BOTB for a few days. Since have seen some bad burns on other boards for newbies acting crazy, I am being cautious. I need to know how to ease into the BOTB scene. Name your favourite thanksgiving food. Turkey and dressing. These are eaten together as one food item. Now I am hungry.
<--------- Mittens is(was) lurking off and on today.
I mainly lurk b/c I can't consistently be here. I'd hate to add something then have someone ask a question or start flaming me and not be here
Same reasons as above.
Piiiiiiiiiiiieeeeeeeeeeeee. Pie! Pie! Pie!
Who's lurking? kristen!
Why do you lurk? Because this board is fun. A funny/random/interesting/awesome mix is so much better than anything else. I love the way everyone just seems like old friends.
Why do you not post? I get on at random times, and don't like to bump old (and I consider posts with no replies for hours "old," because I'm silly) posts. Plus I'm scuurrrred.
Name your favourite thanksgiving food. I. love. all. food. Except peas.
