I judge people who put their purses on the ground when they use the restroom, gross! Also I judge people who bring work related things into the restroom. Like they have to run something to another department on the way they stop in the washroom and brings the files with them in the stall! Ewwww!
I really dislike Abby, Rosita, Zoe, Murray and Baby Bear, bleh! I like my Sesame street Characters old school.
I totally agree. I also don't like that they don't play the old song at the end of the show so I can sing along. Just a saxiphone solo. What the hell? I wanna sing!

I hate the way Baby Bear talks it is so annoying... Zoe sounds like she's an old lady, and I have no idea which one Murray is. The other two don't bother me haha.
Glad I could get my Sesame venting out of the way, thanks PSD lol

Vom! One of my former coworkers would take her phone and eat while in the stall. Whothefuck eats on the toilet?

While we are venting about children's stuff, can I vent about The Going to Bed Book? Why do the animals get showered, put on their PJs, brush their teeth, and then go exercise? Aren't they just going to get sweaty again? Why didn't Sandra Boynton think of this?
Lo LOVES Elmo and Abby Cadabby but I don't put Sesame Street on in our house because it drives me crazy. I can't watch that, Bubble Guppies or Dora. I can do Mickey Mouse Clubhouse all day long.
If you post a picture of your kid and it looks like you have sh!t everywhere in your house I totally judge you. I'm not talking about toys and everyday stuff. I'm talking about when someone posts a picture of their kid and every surface in the room has lotion bottles, junk mail, magazines, just general crap. I'm sure everyone's house gets messy but why would you post a picture of your house looking like an s-hole?

I'm judging a friend on my FB who posted a picture of his DS on the toilet. Nothing was showing (thank God), but still... a simple status update saying something like, "DS is learning how to use the potty!" would've sufficed. No picture necessary thank you.

ETA: I though tErnie song was newer but it came out in 1978, huh. I remember it from Oliver watching Sesame St. not my childhood.
Nice Penny!! I totally remember the Ernie song, and kinda remember the lady bug picnic. Kinda makes me think of School House Rock, which I totally showed my students when I taught. They couldn't get ENOUGH!

I don't have a good UO yet...
DH and I have discussed exactly that! And you're not supposed to exercise right before bed 'cause it wakes you up too much. I feel like Boynton just needed to make the story a little longer and that's all she could come up with.
I like Abby, but that's all. Unfortunately my DD loves Murray, Zoe, and Abby. Also, Baby Bear is like her freakin' favorite! She named her big huge bear stuffed animal Baby Bear. She watches the freakin' movie "The 3 Bears and a New Baby" all.the.time. I hate Baby Bear, his voice drives me insane!
We are Super Why, Dinosaur Train and Mickey Mouse Clubhouse fans in this house!
Also, exercising after shower in the Going to Bed Book has always driven me nuts. I just read it for the sake of the rhyming.

Lady Bug Picnic is pretty much the only song that will calm DD down. She's never seen the video and my voice isn't that good. I don't know why it works but I'm so glad it does.

Along these lines ... My BFF and his girlfriend have a daughter the same age as DD. They've been doing EC, and his GF posts pictures onto FB of their daughter's poop in the potty. WHY?!?! He gets so mad when she does this, but she doesn't see anything wrong with it because she's so proud. I gag at least once a week when I open FB. I would take her off my newsfeed, but MH and I are good friends with them, and I love seeing new pictures of their DD because she's adorable. I just don't appreciate seeing what comes out of her. ::insert a vom face for me since I'm mobile bumpin'::
I judge MH for waiting until he's been sick for nearly one month with his man cold turned sinus infection before going to the doctor. Finally got some antibiotics! Maybe he'll quit griping about not being able to breathe!

Are there any Fraggle Rock fans? I love the Doozers!
We watch Yo Gabba Gabba in this house. DS is obsessed!
My UO is that I hate the circus groups that have animals. One is coming to town soon and DD is begging me to take her. I always say no every year. I feel bad for saying no, but I can't bring myself to support that circus group. When a nonanimal circus comes, I will take the kids.

I don't have a good UO yet...
Ha, it's so funny that you said this. Every time we read The Going to Bed Book my DH says to my DD, "In real life you should exercise and then take a bath and put on your PJs."
I judge people that get dogs, keep them until they are no longer "new and exciting" then get rid of them.....only to get another dog 6mo later.
I have two friends that do this. One is on her 5th dog in 6 years. Each time, she claims she doesn't have enough time to give to the dog and is "devastated" that the dog has to be given up. Only 6 months later, showing everyone she has a new dog. The other friend just stated they were looking for a dog. The first dog they had, they claimed they were allergic. Only they admitted to me later they weren't, they just wanted a smaller dog. The second dog they had was so laid back and AWESOME...total lap dog, small, and soft as hell. They gave it up saying they didnt have enough time for it. Now they are way busier than they were when they had the second dog, and they said on FB they are "looking for the perfect lap dog!"

There really should be more of a process for letting people get animals. I see this crap ALL THE TIME. Also the, we had to get rid of our lab cause we had allergies so we got a _______ instead. Seriously? You're gonna be just as allergic to a yorkie dumbass.
I agree entirely. We knew our Aussie was going to need a lot of exercise but really didn't understand HOW much. We suck it up in the freezing cold and snow and spend time throwing a ball/Frisbee with her in the yard and walking her. She's inside with us the rest of the time and follows me room to room and plays great with DD. I couldn't imagine just getting rid of her because she's more work than we expected.
There is a deaf boy that goes to DDs kiddie gym place. Usually our nanny takes her, but I don't work on Fridays, so I took her to open play one week. He was there with his nanny, who totally paid no attention to him (was listening to her iPod the whole time, ignoring him running like a crazy person, jumping on/into other smaller kids, etc). He doesn't speak (he does have hearing aids and she was talking to him) and is totally wild, and she just ignored him the whole time. My nanny met another nanny at the gym who had a playdate with this boy at his house-and said the nanny totally ignored the kid (and her) the entire time there too. You can just tell she is someone who does it for the money and really doesn't care about him. I judge his parents for not making sure he has someone who can not only handle him, but also help him with his special needs.

This. Did any of you guys see the nannycam video of the nanny hitting and throwing a ball at a 10month old baby? The parents had no idea until they installed a nannycam and caught her on film doing it. I hope the boy's parents don't know she's like that...This really upsets me.

I've never seen the parents unfortunately-me and my big mouth (my nanny too) would totally say something if we saw them!

This is really upsetting to me That nanny should be helping him interact with his peers and incorporating ASL in playtime so he can communicate. I pray you run into the parents and your big mouth does it's job
Re: Judgments or UO, anyone?
I really dislike Abby, Rosita, Zoe, Murray and Baby Bear, bleh! I like my Sesame street characters old school.
I totally agree. I also don't like that they don't play the old song at the end of the show so I can sing along. Just a saxiphone solo. What the hell? I wanna sing!
We have the old school videos. Elmo is still a bit obnoxious, but he doesn't drive me nearly as crazy as Dora did when SD watches her.
I hate the way Baby Bear talks it is so annoying... Zoe sounds like she's an old lady, and I have no idea which one Murray is. The other two don't bother me haha.
Glad I could get my Sesame venting out of the way, thanks PSD lol
Vom! One of my former coworkers would take her phone and eat while in the stall. Whothefuck eats on the toilet?
Best sesame street songs:
Alligator king -clicky

Burned by the Bear

I wish Sesame Street had more episodes with Barkley and Snuffalupagus. They were always my favorite!!
Red was my favorite character on Fraggle Rock. Can you believe DH never saw a single episode! He was a deprived child.
