I agree with Karbird5: I hate when people say stuff like that about girls. You don't know how any little girl will grow up to be or how they will act. People say stuff like that to my husband and I all.the.time. And now that I am pregnant the comments only get more annoying. "What if it's another girl? Oh my gosh the money, the weddings, the drama, the bathroom time."
Well this is ridiculously annoying. My fear of having a daughter doesn't have a damn thing to do with any of those things.
I know. I am so tired of hearing it. This baby could be a boy and be a ton of drama. I know my H caused his parents a lot more grief then his sister ever did.
I am so proud of my DD and what she does so I get all irrationally offended when people make ridiculous comments. I honestly dream of my DD becoming president...yes I am one of those parents.

I have two girls. Combined, they give me less drama than my friend's one son.
I farking LOVE Pink!!! I think if I had a little girl and she wanted to emulate someone famous I would say Pink.
I watched her BIO (after baby) and she is just awesome.
ETA- Her video to "So What' is HA-Larious
Her songs are catchy, but I feel secondhand embarrassment for her with the new ones. I mean, she is back with her husband now but she will be on stage singing about his whiskey d!ck for a lifetime.
I get the whole you don't want to stereotype thing but it is usually true.
Backpack shopping with boy - "I just need something to carry my shlt."
Same with DD - "I don't want a character backpack because that is so last year and I am a big kid now. Do I want this one? Does it come with a matching lunch box? How will it look next to uniform? Can I get my name on it? Does is sparkle? Let's see how it looks on."
I just stand there sometimes in amazement.
This will be DD1. She already makes me take out three or four dresses before she decides which color, style, length is right for her very fashion foward day with the rest of the 2-3 year olds.
Seinfeld is awesome. Most things in life can be related to a Seinfeld episode.
Absolutely. It's just so spot on.
Told you it was a UO!
As far as some of the other topics go, here is where I stand:
I do not purposely fart in the presence of anyone. Nor do I find it funny. If it slips out, I say excuse me. My DH and I are very comfortable with each other, I just prefer to keep bathroom type stuff in the bathroom.
I had a cheesecake once with Nutella as the topping, it was yummy and I'm not a huge cheesecake fan.
I am an extremely picky eater. I hope my DS eats like DH, there are only like 5 things he doesn't like.
If men's toenails are gross, get a pedi! Yuck.
Two pieces are cute on little girls.
Kanye is an a but I like his music.
Did I miss anything important?
First we had eachother.5.27.11
Then we had you.6.16.12
Now we have everything.
My wife wants me to get a pedi. I am still skeptical. Someone here had an UO a few weeks ago where they got mad if they had to wait for a guy to get done with a mani/pedi for some reason lol.
this is me waiting for you at the nail salon RTV...
Her songs are catchy, but I feel secondhand embarrassment for her with the new ones. I mean, she is back with her husband now but she will be on stage singing about his whiskey d!ck for a lifetime.
It's just for awareness now. Whiskey d!ck affects everyone.
Seriously, I always sing about my DH's whiskey ***. Actually, I can't sing so I just talk about it.
KB - you must not have not seen the BIO I was referring and don't know what I'm talking about so STFU.
ETA- just in case you don't know I'm joking...

IT WAS YOU.
Hahaha. I am going to go get a pedi to spite you.
Also, whenever I see your username.. I always think of the Louis Gosset Jr character "Chappy" in the Iron Eagle movies lol.

Totally me! My only beef with guys getting nails done is that when I go for pedi, I'm normally going some place (like wedding or something) and need to wear open toe shoes/feet need to look presentable. A guy going to a wedding is going to wear closed toe shoes/don't "need" pedi as much as me = come back later. It's ok... I don't have anywhere to be any time soon. Go RTV. Go and get your pedi.
Also, feel free to call me Chappy. IRL "happy chappy" or "chaps" were used on a daily basis.
I like Rihanna's music. I don't care. I love me some "cheers to the frickin' weekend."
"Where have you been all my life"
"We found love"
The list goes on. If a song come on the radio me and the children can sing along. DS will say "loud mommy." I turn it up and we go.
I like a LOT of music like that. Chris Brown too. I won't buy the album, but that's a different story. (Cheap!) Plus, I don't want to actually give them money. Also, I still am seriously considering the purchase of a Flo Rida album because P loves it.

I have a neighbor who's daughter only wears hand me downs. She NEVER gets anything new. It's not an issue of money. I feel bad for her.
Awe I would feel bad too. It is nice to have some new stuff of your own.
She did get the American Girl doll she was lusting after for Christmas so there's that.
Some of the stuff they give me for hand me downs (DD1 is a year younger than her DD) is unsuitable for donation. Seriously. That stuff has been through 2 toddlers at the very least.
Meh. Everyone has different spending priorities. We can afford new clothes, but when I am lucky enough to receive hand-me-downs, I am happy to take them. I'd just much rather spend the money on fun activities or books or educational toys. My kid appreciates all those things much more than clothes at this age...when he's a teen, maybe not. We'll see!
On a sort of food related note: I can't stand when people refer to kinds of foods as carbs or protein. I assume they mean grains and meats or alternatives but there are carbs in lots of non grain foods and protein in non meat foods.
For example: people making New Years resolutions to eat better, cut out the carbs and eat more veg and fruit. Uhhhh what do you think you're eating if not carbs??
Also using the term "omegas" to refer to that kind of supplement.

I'm a hypocrite in a weird kind of way. I'll explain.
Sometimes (usually in a playful way) I like to be a devil's advocate. In some conversations it can be quite fun, so long as it's not a very sensitive topic and everyone can stay jolly. And I often appreciate others who play devil's advocate in the same way.
But my younger brother and a handful of other people I speak to on a regular basis take playing devil's advocate to a whole new level. They'll do it just for the sake of being contrary, and to get a real rise out of others - as in, make them angry on purpose.
For instance, my brother may not have any particularly strong feelings on Topic XYZ but as soon as someone who does feel strongly about XYZ brings that topic up he will jibe and argue and poke and prod and do everything he can to contradict that person and try to prove how completely wrong they are for ever feeling the way they do. Then he'll just shut down and walk away, without a single care for the fact that he just seriously pissed off/insulted that person. I seriously cannot stand it.
I don't know why I stuck that in here, I just noticed this thing done got all slow and sh!t. So there.

Generally, if the person is trying to get a laugh. As it is, my brother is just being a d!ck. I'd actually respect him more if he were being a troll, lol.
My UO is that I hate Seinfeld, the Simpson's and Family Guy... DH enjoys all of them.
I do not find any of those funny. I find them horribly annoying! DH hated Seinfeld, but does like the occasional Simpsons or Family Guy. I cannot stand them!
OMG! Obviously, I disagree. See username. I think Seinfeld is the single best TV show ever created.
See, I love some pie. In fact, I ate approximately 2 a week during my 2nd tri. It's a mystery why I gained more than my fair share of pregnancy weight.
Pancakes are gross with chocolate chips in them.

For some reason not liking chocolate chips in your pancakes is the most shocking thing I have read all day! I literally gasped when I read it. That's my favorite kind of pancake but Belgian waffles trump pancakes any day.
You wanna know something really shocking?! I don't really like chocolate unless it's dark chocolate. I could probably go a whole year without eating chocolate, and I'd be perfectly fine with it. The most shocking news I saw on TB was someone telling me in the UO thread on SAHM that she doesn't like gifs.

Dark chocolate is the only way to go, especially with a glass of red wine. I gave up sweets for Lent and I'm already craving some chocolate. I definitely couldn't go a whole year without it!!
Not liking GIFs is crazy. If I could incorporate them into face to face conversations, I totally would. I guess I could carry my iPad around with some saved on it, say hold on a second in the middle of a conversation, and pull up an awesome GIF.
That gif is amazeballs. I had a post it ready for that UO, lemme tell ya.
Dark Chocolate for everyone!!11!!!!!1!!!111!!!
And I really want some of this for my ice cream:

A lot of stuff sold as milk chocolate in the US isn't even real chocolate.
Dark chocolate covered pom is my favorite sweet indulgence lately. I've tried to stay away from sweets recently, since I ate my way through 2011 and part of 2012.

This is one of the main reasons we're friends, of course. My DH swears I am a female Larry David.
