My FFFC is I don't understand why people post half the shiz they do on this board. I mean I get the board is dead, but do you really have to ask for thoughts or opinions on EVERY LITTLE thing? Do the opinions of internet strangers mean that much to you? I feel like the board would actually pick up if there weren't so many annoying, pointless posts.
I totally agree... Too many pointless posts. No one cares about what you wear, how tan you are, or anything about your make up. Get over yourself
LOVE IT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
OH jees! I guess there is no point in anybody posting anything at all then. Everything has been asked/discussed/talked about before... I still like it here and get great info!
You get great info on what to wear? If that's what you are looking for, you should just go to pinterest.
Don't like pinterest. And yes, I got helpful info regarding MAC makeup, the self tanning lotion and if it works, I got great info on baby carriers, (thank you everybody who recommended ErgoBaby) baby monitors (I love my Angel Care monitor) car seats etc. And it helps to vent and share your frustrations with women who may be going through something similar and understand if you don't know many people IRL who are experienced in this....
Sorry everybody if I've annoyed you, certainly wasn't my intention, I also sometimes wonder about certain posts like everybody else, but at least I don't say anything hurtful, I just move on. And no, I'm not looking for sympathy LOL
My FFFC (actually, go ahead and flame me if you like) is that I am completely over the facebook clique that shows up here occasionally to terrorize/ run off the few posters who are left. They remind me of a bunch of high school bullies.
I think we need an outline, bullet point presentation, or maybe even a video about what are, and what are not acceptable subjects to discuss on this board. I'd hate to think I'm boring someone.
Get over yourselves.
Every so often the same women come on this board and post about what we're all doing wrong. It's so flucking eye roll worthy.

No flames here. I absolutey agree. I always wonder if they are that rude to people in real life.

Yup. Stuff like this just proves my point. It's like trying to have a conversation with 13 year olds.

I'm sorry for being mean!! It's just that this board is for the babies, not about what we should wear, etc... I'm sorry for being mean and I hope you accept my apology.

Huh...is that why the board is named "January 2012 Moms?" I guess they should post their girly stuff in the "Babies: 6-9 months" board instead. That makes perfect sense.
Anyway, my FFFC is when people quote fifty other people in one post, all the boxes confuse me haha.

If we go by this logic, they have a Fashion & Beauty board on TN.
Namara I was thinking of starting this thread and then thought it was too early and no one would be up! Then I realized we have small babies and I cannot remember the last time I slept past 6:15!
Anyway, my FFFC- I'm irrationally fired up about the freaking Penn State/ Joe Paterno thing. There was a debate on the radio this morning about whether or not Penn State should take down the Joe Paterno statue- people were actually calling in trying to defend JoePa and his "legacy" at Penn State. WHATTHEFUCKKK.... take the damn statue down, I don't care how many people JoePa helped, he is now proven to ahve systematically covered up child abuse for years and years so as far as I'm concerned... that is his legacy... Also I hope Jerry Sandusky gets murdered in jail...
So that was my rant/confession...
I haven't read this entire thread yet, but I'm assuming this post is why there are 89 comments (unless people are really upset with those of you putting a blanket in your child's crib).
I 100% agree with your statement. I can't believe anyone would defend this man for covering up for a child molester. Those poor children (10 that we know of, probably many more) are scarred for life. He should have put them above football. Football is nothing more than a game.

I think its great. People take stuff too seriously. This is the most action the board has seen in awhile. All because I snarked on someone's fashion crisis.

Definately. This thread made me laugh. It's drama free entertainment! I'm all for building a quote pyramid. :P
Holy cow, the queen bee is back . I am also here (almost) everyday, but rarely feel inspired to comment. The board turned lame for the most part. Maybe it's my own fault? The world may never know.....
*Imagine random funny gif here since I am on my phone*

Wait! Your dh's know where the sink AND the garbage are? Mine needs reminding all the time
I let ds sleep with a receiving blanket over him at night. He sleeps in the pnp next to my bed and is more than capable of moving the blanket if it rides up on him.
I also will not let mil babysit under any circumstances. She's crazy and I can't stand even being in the room with her (and I don't feel bad about it at all).
I could care less what people post about. I just skip posts that don't interest me and it doesn't bother me at all if someone wants to discuss something non-baby related. I was one of the first January 2012 moms on the board and stuck around after the majority moved to Facebook (I missed the migration and then didn't get a chance to join before it was closed). True the board is slow but instead of lurking and not posting because you think the posts are lame, why not post something worth talking about and get the board hopping again? As much as I don't like drama, I am loving the activity on the board.
Here's my FFFC, every night I tell myself that when ds wakes up I'm just going to rock/nurse him and put him back in his bed. Then when he gets up I'm so sleepy that I just pull him in bed with me, stick my boob in his mouth and go back to sleep. I usually wake up a short time later and put him back in his bed but he ends up in my bed every morning. I swore I would never co sleep but it's so much easier and I hate that I do it.

When did this migration occur? I don't remember any such thing, but I wasn't an original Jan '12 Mom. I was supposed to be Dec '11, and was also MIA from TB for the first month of DS's life...

It wasn't long after the board got started. Some of the first women on this board started a Facebook group. They felt the board was too puppies and rainbows and too many dumb questions so they stopping posting on it. In an attempt to keep dumb questions off Facebook they made an announcent that after a certain date no one else would be accepted into the Facebook group. I think I got that all right.

That is correct. Also, soon after our LOs were born, some ladies started a second facebook group. I was a part of it, but I guess I got booted because I never post. Not sure what's going on with that, but the board did slow down again after the 2nd group was made.

All true, except I believe the original intent of the FB groups was safety and easier posting. Safety doesn't bother me because I'm incognito on TB.
The second FB group did do a house cleaning to make sure anyone who was in it is an active participant, but it isn't closed to new people.
Re: FFFC
