No clue if this will be unpopular, but it bugs me when people name their animals legit people names like, "This is my cat, Sarah." or "This is my dog, Patrick." It's just odd to me.
Obviously names like Max or whatever don't apply, and I don't expect everyone to name their dogs "Buddy," it just feels weird when someone's cat shares my same name...
My animals have always had real people names? I had a dog named Ollie (short for Oliver) growing up. Now I have dogs named Nixon (he looks like Dick and is always in trouble, so it seemed appropriate), Leela (after Futurama), and a cat named Marley.
I mean, they're not COMMON people names, but they're legit names.
My dog growing up was Bailey. I think it's more of the classic names where it just seems off to me.
Another UO about shoes - I love Crocs. They're comfortable, they float, they're easy to clean, and I think they're cute. My LO will definitely be wearing baby Crocs.
However, I can forgive baby crocs, because anything baby sized is adorable (this coming from a person who owns a collection of mini kitchen items because they're adorbs).

Have an ex who has a cat named: Richard Feces Cranium.
Yeah. Dick Shit Head.
He was a piece of work. (The guy, not the cat)

My husband and I came to an agreement that our next dog will be name "Doggie Howser M.D.". Yea... but the compromise is that if we ever have a son, I don't have to name him "Rory", which is a name I hate and he loves.
Possible UO: I'm at the point now where I'm too saturated with all of the researching of baby items. I'm hoping I'll get mostly everything I need from baby showers, and then I probably won't buy anything else until I need it. And I'll buy the first thing I come to.

i mean i get everyone wants a healthy pregnancy but you will survive with some caffeine, cold meat sandwiches, hair dye, etc. I mean really.
I am 100% using my pregnancy as an excuse to not color my hair (DH likes it when I color it). I'm cheap, so I do it at home, and sometimes I love it when I'm done, other times I hate it and wonder why I didn't just pay a pro to do it.
I've got gray hairs, and I don't even CARE!! I'm wondering how long I can keep using it as an excuse though.
I'm totally the opposite - I have a lot of gray hair and really, really don't like it. DH thinks the gray is just fine. My hair grows fast and I have to dye it often so I do it at home since it would cost a small fortune if I didn't.
It's going to get harder leaning over the tub to wash the dye out so I'm debating if I should make DH help me. He will really love that since he usually runs away from the smell.
Shit. I'm another un-fan of the cheesecake. It's just so RICH!! One bite and I'm good for a year.
I swear though, I don't kick puppies or kittens though; I don't trip old people who use canes to walk, and I donate to charity. So...I'm not ALL bad.

DS had two pairs of Crocs. They were both adorable and perfect shoes for the park last summer. Easy to clean and dump out when sand gets in them. Love them.
My UO: I hate seafood. I hate the smell and I can't stand the taste.
Please don't give me the "If it tastes fishy it wasn't cooked right"
line. Jim Gaffigan has a GREAT bit about it that makes me laugh because
it's TRUE!! Seafood=Eww to me.
I'm a lurker. I also didn't post to the "New to August 2014" thread, because...well, mostly I feel like I'm a lurker, so who really freaking cares (glad to know I guessed right!), right? Plus, I'm a little more hesitant to post on TB than I am on TK since my skin is a little thinner right now (yay hormones), so I'm not quite as capable of handling getting flamed. I own that. Plus, I'm still working on figuring out ALL of the hot button topics (so I can avoid) and anything that might be a potential landmine topic that might blow up in my face.
I do enjoy reading the threads though. I crack up over U/S pics since I like to see all of the guesses (my favorite is always T-Rex). And, it's always great for seeing what fun GIFs will be rolled out.
I hate seafood too! It is so disgusting! I have tried a bunch of kinds of fish, shellfish, etc., I hate it all!

I like almost too ripe bananas. If it's green at all, it's gross. A good banana should have freckles.
Also, the season finale of the Walking Dead was weak.

I always chuckle because it's clever. This is my dog Sir Gregory the 3rd.
Our cats have people names but they came with them... My BILs cats are Charles and Meatball, which I find hysterical. We used to have cat named The Prefessor.
My aunt just got a new puppy and named it Chloe, which was one if our baby name choices. Scratch that one off the list...
I LOVE over ripened bananas-they remind me of roasting bananas on a camp fire. Also love Greek yogurt-twice the protein! Now that I've shared my popular opinions.... U/O: I don't follow pop culture and I think it's annoying when everyone else in the room knows something I think is lame... Today I was telling a colleague about how we're skipping the infant car seat phase. She mentioned Brittney Spears driving with child in lap. Everyone chimed in. *eye roll* why the Ef does EVERYONE know about this?

We can never be friends.
Ever.
Cheesecake is awesome and Crocs are dumb.
