    My FFFC is that I am really happy that DS basically took over our iPad. I wanted to get one that has cellular service and now I have the perfect excuse.

  • My FFFC is that I have a cold today. I could have worked from home, but my Mom is at my house watching Finn. I decided I'd get more rest sitting at my desk all day versus being home with my Mom and sick kid.

    @Tanisha417‌ I was behind someone that hit a goose once. They didn't even slow down. The goose wasn't dead so I pulled over and called animal control. In the meantime I grabbed a blanket out of my car and wrapped it up and tried to keep it calm. The worst part is, it's mate was with it and was making these terrible screaming honks. Just walking around in circles, screaming. By the time animal control got there, the goose was dead. He told me that the female died, they lay their eggs in the woods right behind there, and that the babies probably wouldn't make it now. I cried for days. Literally. I guess my fffc is that I'm way too sensitive. But the thought that the person that hit it never stopped, or even hit their brakes still makes me ragey as hell to this day.

    That is so sad.

    So glad the theme of the day is "dead animals." 
    :-S

    Ha! I just spit my coffee out.

    I am Going to New Hapshire for the weekend to see my nephew perform in a show and it was just going to be my mum, LO and I but SO said he would come. Yesterday he made a comment about maybe staying home and I said no you have to come. The flame part is honestly I didn't ask him to come to begin with because he NEVER does family stuff but now that he has said he would I really just want him to come to help with LO. She has been so fussy lately and mamma needs HELP!
  • I'll change the topic slightly...so I got bit by a squirrel a couple years ago while we were feeding them. Yeah it was really bad, hurt so much!
  • cboinkcboink member

    Uh, a bird flew into my windshield once. I was pissed. Cost me several hundred dollars. Bird was dead because parts were still stuck in the windshield. Hope it was worth it, stupid bird. Survival of the fittest in action. Ha. I can see getting upset over an animal of yours but a rodent? Or random bird? No. And all summer long I curse the bugs as they dirty up my windshield.

    We get upset because most of us still have a soul!

    I confess that I hate birds and I think they're gross. They used to randomly fly into our front window of our house when I was little and their guts would be smeared all over. So gross. I don't get how people have them as pets, squawking all the time with their grossness. Ughhh

    Yes because not having a breakdown over a dead squirrel totally means someone is soulless. 8-| I'm assuming you must be a vegetarian, too... Because animals have to die for chicken nuggets. Mmm.

    Oh hell no! I love meat. As long as I didn't kill it, its all good.

    Birds as pets is strange. I could never have a caged bird in my house.

    But it's ok to eat fish because they don't have any feelings.

    Fish freak me out. I am weirdly afraid of them.
    I have a lot of issues. ;)
  • My FFFC confession is that I am super terrified of anything biological that flies...birds, butterflies, moths...you name it, it will send me into a panic attack. I think I would still be upset if I saw one in pain and dying.

  • Yesterday I hit a squirrel, and I balled like a baby.

    I can relate. Years ago I ran over the back end of a squirrel by accident then when I looked back to see if he was okay he dragged himself across the street, up onto someone's lawn, then collapsed. I still feel like shit about it.

    But still not as bad as dead animals.

    Careful @Herc I see a repeat of the cat killer thread ;)

  • My FFFC is I lied and told DH that I may be called in to work on Saturday just to avoid going to my in-laws house for the whole weekend.  I have 2 reason why I hate going there for 2 days: 1) My MIL does not wash the guest room sheets even though people stay at their house all the time.  It's disgusting - one time I found dried leaves in bed when I pulled back the comforter.  And 2) They watch my SIL's 2 sons on Saturdays and I don't trust the 3 year old around Julia.  He is very territorial of his grandparents and would not hesitate hitting or punching her if she was getting any attention from them (he has tried before).  So I would rather just go down for the day on Sunday to avoid both sleeping in dirty sheets and possibly knocking out a 3 year old.

    My FFFC I refuse to turn the heater on. I paid over 400 a month during this past horrible long winter we had. Last night it got chilly and when I woke up my LO's leg were freezing even though he had a onesie and a blanket. I felt horrible.

    I judge people that hunt for fun

    Me too! I don't understand killing anything just for fun.

    I don't think anyone does it just for fun - they do it for the food. But it is a fun way of getting food. No more in humane than how hamburgers get on your table... And cheaper!
    I know a ton of people who hunt for fun. They'll eat some of it but give most of it away. Or hunt ducks. No one I know who duck hunts does it for food. And the same with wolf hunting here. Everyone is so excited to wolf hunt but it's seriously for sport, not a single person eats wolf. And they just were removed from the endangered species list. Ugh. Sorry. It makes me mad
  • I used to nanny for a family that had a massive floor to ceiling window in the back room of the house. At least once a day a bird would fly into it and die. We called them kamikaze birds.

  • I wish there was a test that people could take before having children, you know to weed out darwin award candidates. 1) have you ever tried to put a bear? 2) have you ever tried to hand feed a bear from your car from the side of the road? 3) have you ever tried "surfing" on the roof of your car?
    That is just a quick sampling if the stupidity that has occurred in my town recently.

  • I've seen so many accidents caused by people slamming on their brakes for animals. And it's usually geese or some type of large rodents.

    I will slam on my brakes and try my hardest for cats and dogs, because I would be hysterical if I killed someone's pet, and would die if someone ran mine over. But a goose, squirrel, or rabbit... probably not if it's gonna cause me to lose control or get rear ended.
  • Don't serial killers usually start with killing animals?
    yes. childhood Conduct Disorder (which includes cruelty to animals) can turn into Antisocial Personality Disorder as an adult, which is the mental health term for a psychopath/sociopath.

    MH squirrel hunts just for fun, but he gives the meat to his dad who legit makes squirrel stew over a big fire in a cauldron.  I can't eat it, but they love it.

    I remember watching my grandma skin the squirrels on her front porch. I could never eat it after that sight. Gag.
    I could remember watching my grandmother kill rabbits (to eat) when I was little. I was really upset so to make me feel better she would give me the foot for luck. It did not help @-)

  • My FFFC is when someone new posts an intro, claims to have lurked for a long time I have no desire to respond to them especially when their into includes questions. I just feel like they are doing a drive by. If they really wanted to participate they would have by now.
