For real,I didn't go to college and I feel like the underdog sometimes.Also I had some medical issues that caused me to gain a lot of weight fairly quick and as soon as I found out how to get rid of it I got pregnant.I am losing again but its pretty sh!tty when I see people judging people for their weight when some people can't help it. I'm not a fvcking marsmallow man,but I have some weight to lose.
At least you have a "reason". I'm just fat and lazy...and I'm this big after losing 30 lbs.
Francesca Pearl is here! Josephine Hope is almost 3!
I large groups I get drowned out. I'm a quiet person and generally pretty shy. But in a small group of people you can't shut me up.
This is me to a T. I am so shy around large groups or people I don't know. People mistake it for b!tchyness. This is probably part of the reason I love TB.

I always start stories that I think are hilarious, but then half way through I realize they are lame. I still keep going because it's too late and then I look like an idiot!
This. Hahaha In high school my friends would always be like "Here we go..." when I'd start to tell a story. I suck. Hahaha

I am a very loud person - I seriously have two volumes - loud and louder.
This makes it very awkward when I try to tell inappropriate stories or gossip about people at restaurants. Everyone can hear me and I don't realize it.
Some people do not get my sarcastic sense of humor. I'm never sure if I've just offended them or they just didn't get it...
I wish I had awesome fashion sense, but I would much rather wear jeans and t-shirts/sweater or sweatshirt than anything else. Wearing nice jeans makes up for it, right?

I do this all.the.time!
I also tell really long, drawn out stories... I guess I talk more "circularly," like talking around a point (think vince vaughn) than getting straight to the point.

My friend is like that. I have to try to look disassociated from her when she's ripping people and I'm sitting next to her.

ITA. I went to college but didn't finish and I'm the only one. Sometimes I feel like finishing my degree but there's no time, money or point. I wouldn't use it anyway.
And also, my 6 yr anniversary is coming up.... and in 6 years I've gained 60lbs, mostly from ttc. Yeah, I'm dreading the digs about it from my family already.
That my XH chose a computer game over his family, and I worry that it'll happen when I get married again (which I why I said yes to the engagment but don't want to pick a date to get married ).
I suck at spelling.
I see you mention this a lot and I wonder why it makes you so self-conscious! There's nothing wrong with leaving douchebags and procreating with better people.
I've gotten lots of crap from people for it, things like "I told you not to get married so young", "you should have gotten to know him better", "K must have been an accident because you're not married again" so it kind of makes me feel bad.

This exactly! It's not like you are out sleeping around and getting knocked up on the sly.
I have a certain laugh that DH calls my "inappropriate laugh". It's an all of a sudden, super loud, obnoxious laugh that usually happens in a public place. That's my inappropriate laugh. Gets me in sh!t sometimes.

Does a degree in cellular and molecular biology count?
Bah!! ME too!! wait, here's the kicker... I think I'm cool because of it. Well... there's my answer, I like being a nerd. Oh and I have never been able to do anything other than blowdry my hair or ponytail.

I am always hours late to the party, and everyone has moved on by then!
I don't wear makeup or get all dressed up. And my biggest one is that I desire so much to be witty, but I end up a big FAIL.
Haven't read through yet, but had to comment. ME. This is totally 100% me as well.

I'm super pale too! I don't tan... I burn. Sun exposure without sunscreen causes hives on my left arm... and my blood vessels to suddenly be visible. Hell, even sun exposure WITH sunscreen can do this sometimes. But I don't let my paleness bother me. You're beautiful Chrissie, pale or not!

Sorry I had to giggle. Your shorts are almost the same colour as your skin.
I try to use sunless tanner to soften the blow a little bit. Turns out, the lotion I was using was ineffective ... I realized it must have expired or something once I got a new bottle and it actually starting making a difference.
In this picture I'm like the Emperor's New Clothes.

This. Most of the time I'm terribly under dressed (slouchy looking), never wear my hair but in a crazy fly away infested ponytail bun type thing, and am a total nerd. Jokes I make aren't funny most of the time. Plus I have no rhythm and can't dance.

IMO yes you are pale, but you have gorgeous skin. Like a doll. I am pale and awkward. Like I have random thoughts of tan in weird spots. So I am all over unevenly pale. I will wear pants ALL SUMMER LONG to avoid people seeing my pale.

I have 0. Partly because I'm not cool enough for that and partly because I'm still leary of people on the interwebz knowing my personal info (I don't even have a picture of DS in my siggy!)

There's no one specific thing, but I hate looking back on something I did 5, 10, even 20 years ago and cringing in embarrassment. Often, I didn't even realize I was doing something embarrassing at the time. I wish so hard that I could go back and undo those things. Like that ten-paragraph email to the ex-boyfriend. Like that time I hit a parked car with my bike. Like all those times I thought I was being funny with the TMI.
The worst part is that I pat myself on the back about how I've gotten much better at not embarrassing myself, but I'M STILL DOING EMBARRASSING THINGS. I just don't realize it until I reflect on it later. And then I cringe. Ugh.
I worry too much about what other people think of me. And I am ridiculously shy, to the point people think I am a snob. Also, since settling down and having a family I have become very anti-social...it sucks!

LOL okay, now I'm blushing.
And, to be fair, something that makes me feel incredibly uncool is the fact that I have to be THE PALEST person EVER.
Seriously, if God told me I could either have a permanent tan or permanently lose my baby weight I would pick the tan.
Wearing shorts in the summer causes major anxiety.
PS. It is stupid that we haven't gotten together yet. I think it's time for a CLE-CAK GTG. FFS. TIA.
