Let's be judgmental!

The Oct 2011 ladies (who are hilarious and I have a total girl-crush on that board) do this and I thought it might be fun for us to try on our lil BMB.

Any takers?

I judge my BIL and SIL for babying their middle son. Initially they only wanted 2 kids, so he was babied. Well, now they have 3 and he is being a total PITA about accepting the new baby.

I judge my friend who still hasnt had a drink since her son was born (7 months ago). Dude, have a beer! Take the edge off! Its good for boobie milk (and your sanity!)!

Re: Let's be judgmental!

  • I judge people who put up pictures of just themselves on FB...that they took themselves. Especially entire folders titled "Just Me."  Clearly their only source of self-confidence is in glamorizing themselves and reading all the nice things other people say (some of it in pity).

  • I judge women whose toes go past the edge of their sandals. They didnt fit in the store, and they dont fit now! Why the eff did you buy them?! Now your feet are gross, which in turns makes me think the rest of you is gross as well.
  • I really try hard not to judge people and think maybe there is another side to the story I don't know about BUT I always judge my SIL. So I'm really going to enjoy this post Stick out tongue I know more than enough about her life and how she treats others especially family and most of all her 3yo son!

    She's the most selfish person I've ever met! She thinks she's entiteled to everything and that it's her parent's responsobility (She's 32!) to make sure her son has health insurance, new furniture, that her bills are paid, her car maintained and repaired every time she hits the f'n side of the garage or clips another person. And when they dare saying they won't pay for it she threatenes with not ever letting them see her son again, calls them names and how should her son be hungry the next day it will be their fault. Yet she goes and gets her hair done at one of the most expenisive salons once a month, while at it she also gets a mani/pedi, has new clothes all the time, has been working on multiple tattos the last year, goes out multiple times a week etc.

    Also, she is constantly dating other guys and has them around her boy.

    She also shares custody of the boy with the father and has him every other weekend. During this time, she drops him off Friday's at my ILs and doesn't pick him up until Sunday afternoon!!! Her reason: She has to get up at 7am Saturday morning to go to work and Saturday evening is the only time she can meet up with her boyfriend so she needs that time off and then b/c she works so hard (part time waitress) she needs also some time to sleep in. So she NEVER sees her child! She always claims that she's this single supermom yet she spends the least time with him out of all people involved in this boy's life.

    I know many single moms and what they do is amazing and I wonder if I'd be strong enough to handle all that they do. She's nothing but a parasite.

    Wow, I've gone crazy with this one huh?? LOL

    Ugh, how could I forget! That's my SIL as well!!

  • I judge women who wear sweatpants with "Juicy" and "Pink" written on the a$$. It's like hanging an instant "we will never be friends" sign on your bum.

    I also judge people who give me the side eye when I'm wearing DD in a sling or Ergo in public. No, she's not uncomfortable. Yes, I own a stroller. No, I'm not impeding her ability to crawl, walk, run, go away to college. Yes, she can, in fact, breathe. No, I won't throw my back out thankyouverymuch.

  • Hmmm I might like this post a little too much:)

    I judge the hell out of my friends when they choose to go out to the bar instead of spending the day with their kids who are stuck in the house alllllllll d@mn day!!! I had free tickets to the Zoo last weekend for Family Night ($100 value) I called a few friends to see if they wanted to go and bring the kids. Their reply "NO I can't I have plans to go out tonight" Wth? Might I mention it was like 11 am...I just don't get it...You can take your kids places and then go out if you choose to later. Ughhhh thanks I needed to get that out!!! This happens all the time smh!

    I love you, Smitty. There is nothing written on my sweatpants so we can be friends.

    Do people really comment on your babywearing? Odd. The only comment I've gotten was from my alzheimers-ridden grandmother who told me I looked like "an African woman in a field" while wearing my ring sling.

    I didn't get any comments regarding my Ergo yet but I do get the look every once in a while... wtf

    And LOL

  • I judge DH's best friend and his girlfriend.  He has a 3yo daughter with another woman and his girlfriend constantly is trying to get the daughter to call her mama.  If DH and I were to split up and his new girlfriend tried to get DS to call her mama, I would be beyond pissed.  Seriously, she's not this girls mother or step-mother.  It annoys the heck out of me.

    Lol, for real?! I'd like to be at a dinner party with your grandma. That comment makes me think she'd be like the grandmother in Wedding Crashers.

    And yeah, I've gotten a few comments, mostly from older ladies in the grocery store. Although, one older woman in Pier One told me that it's a beautiful way to bond with my baby.

    Im a germaphobe too so sorry but I judge moms who let there kids touch everything in sight and don't use covers or sanitizers.

    I also judge my friend who devotes her every waking breath and attention to her 2 year old daughter. She refuses to talk more than a couple mins on the phone because she feels like she's ignoring her. Also if we go out for lunch it is impossible to hold a conversation because she will stop the conversation if her daughter makes a peep. I think while it may not matter right now but I think she is raising a kid who will be incapable of playing on her own and needs to be entertained at all times.

    I also judge my other friend who lets her 6 year old interrupt adult conversation constantly. There is something called "excuse me", use it.

    Celebrities always seem to wear their shoes too small and I notice their toes hanging off their shoes. Also when did Victoria's Secret become a pre teen store? I don't like seeing girls wearing their clothes.

    Isnt LinkedIn for professionals? Yeah, I'd judge that too. I used to have one of those "Master of the home" or something like that SAHM things for my FB job description, mostly to be funny, but also 'cause I'm kinda jelly of people and their cool careers. I don't think I had it up for very long Stick out tongue

    On the flip side of this, I judge parents who go out to dinner, or are in a store, and completely ignore their children until the kid is either screaming or bleeding. If you would interact with them and proactively give them something to do, or even just ANSWER them when they talk to you (I can't tell you how much I want to slap parents that stand their just openly ignoring a child asking them questions in line at the grocery store), then they wouldn't throw a tantrum.  Or, better yet, don't drag your kid around to places that you know they are going to be miserable in the first place.

  • I too judge people who leave their kids at home and go out ALL the time! It's one thing to go out every once in a while for A night out with friends it's another to have weekends away multiple weekends in a row when your kid is only a couple months old. WTF, you work all day so your kid is in daycayours someone else raises him from 7am-6pm (you gotta do what you gotta do to pay the bills), but you should at least be home with him on the weekends, not send him to a babysitter for the whole weekend so you can go on mini vacations with friends two weekends in a row! If you're never gonna be home with your baby why have one to begin with? This same person is talking about having another baby already too! Grrr! 
  • I judge people who can't afford to support themselves and the child they have and are trying for number two. A friend is constantly complaining about how they are able to  live paycheck to paycheck because her dad helps out and is trying to get KU. WTF.

    well, i do actually wipe it down before she gets in. I do think carts are pretty gross, but wiping it off with sanitizer is more convenient for me than carrying the cover. but in my saying that i wasn't trying to be mean, I was just following the suit of the post :/

    and about your friend who hovers over her kid, that is too bad because you're right she probably won't be able to self entertain... I know quite a few older kids like that and the parents say it's cuz they were constantly in their faces. I love my baby and I love to play with her, but i do leave her alone to play while i do dishes, am online or cooking etc and i really do think it's good for them :)

    I hope I didn't come across snarky, that wasn't my intention. I'm sure the sanitizer wipes are more then sufficient but I just get freaked out in public about stranger germs. I have anxiety thinking about the day that ds wants to go into a ballpit but I know I have to let him do it. I'll just be crying in the corner, hugging my knees and rocking ;)

    I think people like this should be investigated by child services. It's one thing if the child has a medical condition that makes her put on weight but if it's a result of poor diet then that's child abuse as far as I'm concerned.
