September 2011 Moms

I cannot take the 1st Trimester board.

My patience for questions like "Can I paint my fingernails?" and "Can I eat Chinese food?" is completely nonexistent today, and I didn't have much of it to begin with.  I popped over there for a few minutes and I think I'm already done for the day.

ARGH!

  • I AGREE 100%  I try to wander over just to see whats going on and I realize why my stay there was so short.  I know I have asked very stupid question, and im sure I will still ask them, but some posts I just want to respond....SERIOUSLY!?!?!?!
  • Glad to know I'm not the only one.

  • I know! It's so stupid. I really wanted to punch the nail polish girl. Seriously?! Fumes? From nail polish?! Ugh. There are way worse things out there that no one blinks at, but nail polish fumes worry people.

  • I was just going to post this same thing. It's not that they are annoying me, I'm just not interested in those types of questions anymore-it's so boring over there. I have been checking out the second trimester board lately..

    Those posts ALWAYS turn into a shitshow.  It's amazing, especially once the Pets board on TN gets wind of it.

  • I think it's hilarious.  Just start answering things that are completely ridiculous and wait for the shiitstorm to start.  I just told someone her baby will be born with colored nails if she paints hers.  Devil
  • Amen sista.  I seriously feel so dumb after five minutes there.

  • YesYes

    I usually go over about once a week to remind myself why I don't post there. 

    My favorite was someone who asked if she could be pregnant.  She was something like one day late for AF (gasp!) and had other "symptoms"  Anyway, someone replied by telling her to pee on her keyboard and if the monitor turned blue, she's pregnant.  Wish I could remember who said it so I could give them the proper credit for that response!

  • geek - do you remember when mistyl asked in 1st tri if cold water was ok, and we were all, um, of course it's ok.  you aren't going to freeze your baby.  and then she clarified that she meant swimming in cold water (which really...not much better).  lol.  bless her heart, she's so sweet, but i will never ever forget that.

    When I said "Drinking water?!?!" above it was a direct reference to that, I just couldn't remember who said it.  Angel

    I remember someone else asking if they could go to a bonfire.  Um... why not?  Are they burning tires? A giant pyramid of weed?  Just don't stand downwind of the smoke, for Christ's sake.

  • Agreed - I get dumber just clicking on the 1st trimester board link.  It makes me remember why I never started spending time on the bump until well after DS was born the last time.  Thank goodness for month boards.

  • The dog one really got me yesterday...but I didn't post. And, I also think the whole deli meat coffee stuff turns into a shtshow too. It doesn't matter what side of the coin on that issue that you fall, why do we have to read about each side flaming the other about meat and coffee constantly. We all pick and choose what we are comfortable with right now and probably in most of things we do in life!

  • I can barely handle looking at 1st tri board. The thought occurred to me the other day that these people are reproducing and will probably reproduce at a faster rate than normal, sane people.

    What do you know anyway?  Your baby probably has two noses.  

  • Yo, I triple dog dare someone to register a Cruella De Vil AE and respond to the "What to do with dogs" poster with something like, "I may have a solution for you.  PM me, please."

    I'm LOLing at the thought.

  • My faves are people who get pg "by accident" and the flames..

    Does anyone get pg by accident? When I see that, I have to write...how is it possible that you didn't realize you were having sex?
