    I actually kind of hate poas when I'm TTC. I feel like it makes me not pregnant. It's a hope killer.

    I'm sorry, Hun.

    I can't stand those articles circulating about how moms aren't enjoying motherhood properly or beat themselves up too much or are too judgmental and blah blah blah. They're all the same and all say the same thing in sticky sweet syrupy language.

    They're condescending in that this random blogger/writer for the huffington post had some dumb epiphany about how amazing being a mom is and you should all drink her tea of estrogen. Shut up. I'm loving being a mom and don't need to tell moms how to feel about their own children in some badly written "article" to be shared on Facebook.

    That article about how "marriage isn't for you" that is floating around on Facebook annoys the shit out of me and I think the guy that wrote it sounds stupid.

    Yes. We've scolded moms for improper love of motherhood so much that now we have to move on to marriage.

    @Medhp00 One thing that as really helped with the $ stress of Christmas for us is to do Secret Santa. We do it for each of our families (DH & mine) so we really only need to buy 4 presents plus ourselves and DS.

    You're insulting the passed passengers of the Mayflower! Don't you CARE about turkey?? And stuffing??? And pie!!! Don't insult pie!
    Am not!! I have stated before that Thanksgiving is my favorite. Christmas music, and anything by Streisand or Celine Dion, just happen to be the backdrop to which we give thanks. The music doesn't insult pie, it enhances it and reminds us we get to do it all over again in one month. What are we supposed to listen to, Miley Cyrus? Gag me with a wishbone.

    So there.

    I don't like turkey. Never have. I think it's dry, and tasteless. The only exceptions in my life have been my BILs smoked, and fried turkey.

    I have a hard time feeling sorry for people who use their "rough childhood" as an excuse to make poor decisions. DH and I have gone through some pretty tough sh** growing up, but we have never let that effect the life we strive to have for our future and family. Life is all about choices. Make the right ones damnit. Especially when you have kids. Ok, rant over. I promise my heart is slightly bigger than the Grinch's.

    I like some of the Pioneer Woman's recipes but I can't stand her. She's so annoying.

    I feel like not every law enforcement agent needs a weapon.   I really don't like the overuse of tasers.  I mean it is better than deadly force but is there really no other solution.

    I very much dislike the overuse of the word 'feel' instead of 'think'. 

    ie. "I feel like people who don't put their grocery carts back when they're done are inconsiderate."

    NO. You don't FEEL it, you THINK it.

    My UO is that I don't like kids at storefronts peddling for money for their organizations.  I never have change and I hate getting asked both on my way in and on my way out.  Ah. Noy. Ying.

    I don't have a boy so I don't have a leg to stand on here but why must every single baby boy be called "little man"? I don't know why this bugs me kinda the same way calling a grown woman "baby girl" would. It's just a silly misnomer but perhaps ridiculously overused.

    I cannot stand those "Do you have a minute for some cause?" people. I also think those boys collecting for their basketball team are part of no team.

    When I saw my kid did indeed have boy parts, I said no one calls him that. It makes my teeth itch.
