I made a thread called "Rules of the Road" early on in our PGs in an attempt to be funny. The idea was to post board "rules" (jokes) to follow while posting (IE: stop asking people questions about your ute!). People took it the wrong way and it ended horribly, saying their pitied MH/LO because I must be such a controlling bitch, etc etc etc.
I just looked it up - looks like everything good got deleted by a mod. That sucks! Don't they know they fuck up our walks down memory lane by doing that?
That thread got mod-ed?! Badass! Now I need to look it up!
I'm pretty much embarrassed by my whole contribution to this board. I just don't feel cool enough for most of the regulars here and it's made me wander off at times because I feel like an awkward nobody every time I post something.
I just had a good laugh going back and rereading some of my earlier discussions and the responses. I feel like such a geek. I think the most awkward one that I posted was about mustard helping treat leg cramps. Everyone was like…EEEWWWW gross. LOL. There was also the time that I announced that I went to a wedding braless. I'm a dork.
I was totally the girl who asked about my cycles and how to know if I ovulated and the best question: Could I be pregnant?! WHOMP WHOMP WHOMP….
I had just gotten off of Implanon and was at a loss. Ah, so immature. I posted to the wrong board (didn't read the newbie link) and got my ass lit up. I stayed away for a while after, I didn't realize how much of a community this was until I really started posting.
ETA- I just pulled the post up (I sound like a little kid who's confused about sex.) @Californiadream87 and @Primrosemama participated in the replies lol.. Weird Cali is one of my really good friends now, funny how those things happen!)
I'm terrified to out myself but I posted once on one of the tri boards...I think 2nd tri...and I made up an AE to cover myself as I was so terrified/embarrassed. I am only outing myself because it ended well. I had a string of bad yeast infections and ended up having an allergic reaction to the prescribed cream. I broke out in a horrible rash and was swollen, I could barely walk. I went in to see the dr and had to go to the walk in clinic and see the on call dr. She took one look and told me that I had genital herpes. I broke down in hysterics. I honestly wanted to die. I asked her to run a test to confirm and I had to wait 3 weeks to get the results. Longest three weeks ever but all ended well as I DO NOT have genital herpes (diagnosis also confirmed with bloodwork) but I was terrified. I created the AE to cover my butt and ask the board if anyone had any experience with Herpes and pregnancy. I got some people who thought it was mud and then a few ladies pm'd me with their stories and experience. Every FFFC I've contemplated saying this but I've always chickened out. I promise that was/is the only time I've used an AE.
Holy shit balls. That was you @katies7? Meh, I get it though.
I used to get flamed while on the TTC board (with @primrosemama) quite a bit for "trying to be snarky". Joke was on them though. "Snarky" is apart of my personality. I don't have to "try" at all...
The only thing I can think of was I posted one time about me being pissed About co-workers expecting me to "fail" at breastfeeding and I said something along the lines of being offended that they thought I was that selfish that I wouldn't BF bc it would be inconvenient.. I think I got mildly flamed for indirectly insinuating that FF moms were choosing that out of convenience.. That was never my intention, but I posted that before I had any remote idea at how difficult BFing would be for me, how sensitive the subject of feeding really was, or any sense of how to communicate on TB. Looking back, I was so naive in general.. Crazy how much I've changed.. I hope :-)

This is me exactly!! Been on since my BFP but only show up now and again.
It wasn't on this board, but I got flammed so badly when I was on the knot. I posted about a co-worker that might have had a few drinks before coming in. She got called in because someone else called in sick on Memorial Day so her husband brought her in and picked her up. I failed to mention that she was dropped off. I was flammed so bad for thinking it was hilarious because she could have killed someone driving in or going home. I then deleted it because it was a local board and someone posted that she would go to my work and tell the lady I was spreading those stories about her. It was a clusterfuck.
I never introed and just jumped right in, but miraculously, I don't think I've ever gotten flamed. And I've asked some pretty stupid questions. My first posts were on 1st Tri asking about being sick and fluttering feeling that was gas. Cool story, Bro.
I don't know how I've never gotten flamed. Unless I just don't remember.
I DD a post in baby names since I had asked about middle names paired with Khaleesi and no one even addressed the question since everyone was convinced naming my dd Khaleesi was MUD which I didn't even know what that meant at the time.

I lurked for like a month before I intro'd. And I was super intimidated by the girls in here. So I can only think of one. I had received a barking dog complaint note for the Danes. I was pissed the neighbors just didn't tell me instead of calling the cops. I came on here to complain and peeps got all offended I wanted the neighbors to just talk to me. Then they started inferring I was a bad dog parent and that left a bad taste in my mouth.
I remember that post. I'm pretty sure I responded to it. Although I'm sure I was nice as a fellow dane lover.
Do you all remember someone posting on the 1st or 2nd trimester board as an AE that kept getting inconclusive HIV results? I worried about her for a long time, and wondered if her results ever came back conclusive (hopefully negative). Was there ever an update?
I have been flamed so much that I don't remember half of what it's about. Suffice it to say I've said dumb things, but there was also some wicked hate for no good reason IMHO.
