  • I've browsed most of these responses and don't think I have anything to add.  Well done, ladies!  =D>

  • The BLW thread also reminded me that I can't stand when people pluralize words using an apostrophe.

    It's purees, not puree's.
    I will admit I am bad about this. I try to proofread, I really do. Even more shameful is that I have a degree in English.

  • Not a pet peeve but what happened to the post about the girl who had family drama over her cousins wedding? There was nearly 30 responses and when I tried to open it the thread was gone! Anyone?

    @SuperTinkerham When you call your DH/SO 'Mister'.  I don't know why but this makes me irrationally annoyed.  I call my DH 'hon' IRL but you won't see me referring to him like that on here. 
    Yah, I have mentioned this, too.  I don't know why but it annoys the crap out of me.

    There's also someone who says "cos" instead of "because" and it makes me want to rip my hair out.
    LOL. I'm not fixin to change any time soon. Wayyyyyyyy back on the Snot, I was on there before we were officially engaged. So he wasn't a Fi. So I have always called him Mister or Mr. online for close to 10 years now. I am irrationally annoyed I got banned from the Snot, and now my SN is SuperTinkerham instead of just Tinkerham.

    So.... he was your BF? Or your SO?

    The "mister" business annoys the hell out of me, too.

    WTAF? It's totally gone. I can't even see the replies I made on it in my reply list anymore.

    That's really shady.


    Exactly! That would figure though, something crazy probably happened and we were so busy being bored we missed it! Ugh.

    He was boyfriend/SO. We were looking at venues and budgeting for a wedding, he just hadn't actually proposed. So now we are hitched. I joined the Snot 10 yearsish ago, and we will be married for 9 years this coming March, after a 6 year courtship.

    I think the question is why not just call him your SO for short if he wasn't your DH of FI yet. Is there really a need to call him Mister?
    I'm glad my point wasn't lost entirely.

    Also, repeatedly referring to the knot as the snot is really original and funny 8-|

    I don't know - Mister just fits. BF seemed not right, Fi wasn't right, but Mister was right. SO seems overly formal. *shrugs*

    @kmawb and @ghostof5letters, aw, that's so sweet!  I <3 you ladies!  
    I think we all sit at the cool table. Unless you're on the post-it. 
    :P
    That post about the wedding reminds me of another pet peeve: people who DD.  WTF?  Also it bugs me that the bump won't let you just cancel a post.  Sometimes we change our minds, y'know?
    ETA: Hopefully it's obvious that I don't count someone who changes her mind and puts something in the title to let us know the post is empty as a DDer.  I've had to make 1 or 2 kind of inane posts b/c I realized I didn't want to comment...stupid bump.

    Totally unrelated, but @LoisLayn23 ROFL that is the best meme ever!

    Last I checked people were talking about wedding cake in that post.  Did something else happen at the end?
    She went back and removed her entire first post and then got called out on it.
    I'm really annoyed about this.  Do you guys (besides those of you who heard my rant) have any idea how long it took me to read through her defensive, not making sense, totally fucked up timeframe of posts before I wrote a lovely, direct, straight to the point post which I feel was both loving and caring and fuck offish all at once.  Does too many adjectives make something a run-on sentence?
  • kleMcK said:
    Dammit, am I going to have to start posting more so that people recognize me and I can sit with the cool kids?

    My pet peeve lately is that this board is so boring. IDK what it is. I recognize a lot of the ladies here and like some of them. But I just can't get interested in most of the crap that's posted.

    Also, I don't really care that you had a great appointment and heard the heartbeat on the doppler again, there is no need to create a SS brand new thread for that.
    Girl...you can totally sit with me...or better yet, man the treadmill next to me :)

  • IMO, "Mister" is not near as annoying as "Hus". That one makes me cringe.

    Yeah, I have to agree with this. Hus is weird.

  • I noticed the cousin wedding post also...I think she got her panties in a bunch because the vast majority of people said she had been selfish and she was looming for a pitty party

  • Hubs, hubby or mister. Why can't we just say "my husband"? Does it really take that much extra time?

    For me, bad grammar.  I have to correct my student's grammar on discussion boards all the time, it's not much to ask for a little basic proofreading.  I'm not asking for flawless dissertations, but it really needs to be intelligible if you want me to even consider reading through it.  Rant done. :-) 
    *students'  (assuming you have more than one student)
    :)
    Honest, swear to GOD, that's what I TRIED to type.  REALLY REALLY REALLY.  OMFG.  ::slams shamed head in doorway::  That's what I get for bitching about it, huh?  That said, my phone has decided that "their" is the only permutation of the word, and autocorrects it to that, no matter what I typed.
