Well, they don't even want to wait to be obnoxious! All pregnancy you will say hands off the belly, then baby comes and it will be hands off the baby. People think babies, inside and outside, are public property. It is really weird and obnoxious.

Also, this is not unpopular.

A couple weeks ago I would have fight you over this one. Today... bleh... agree.

Foooood why you hate me??

smfeuro · July 2014

Haha. It's unpopular opinion to non pregnant people.

But here's another one: juice sucks today.

honkytonk_kid · July 2014

I guess my uo is that I never minded people touching my belly last time. Maybe because no one did until it was actual bump, or maybe I didn't encounter any real creeps?

I completely agree with both of these.

Wut.

Avocado is delicous, and breakfast is awesome! I could eat both for every meal of the day.

Ugh. Go away.

I love breakfast! But like @honkytonk_kid said my body isn't liking it right now! Somebody needs to tell baby breakfast is where it's at!

I don't want to start a riot or anything. But I don't like bacon. Or pickles. I didn't like them before pregnancy and I can't stand the thought of them even more now.

DH says he can't wait until I crave pickles. I really hope that doesn't happen.

motherofdogs · July 2014

I think I ate too many pickles last week.

randomnames · July 2014

I dont like breakfast either. I only eat it because I would be miserable if I didn't. Leftovers are the best breakfast foods.
I also don't like bacon, never have never will. Can't even stand the smell.
I do love avocado though :-)

My UO: while I appreciate the thought of someone opening a door for me and waiting for me to go through first, a lot of times its easier to just do it myself. I hate having to duck under someone's arm just because they want me to go through first.

stefanie_cbc · July 2014

I might get heat for this... but please do not tell someone that they will or will not go the hell for something. You may have an opinion on the matter but it's not our decision in the end.

AshleighW13 · July 2014

Right now I prefer to sleep cuddled up with my teddy bear than with DH. I want him to come home but I dread sleeping in the same bed with him. He's a freaking furnace.

I sometimes will start to walk very slowly if I think someone might try and hold the door for me. It has nothing to do with ducking under someone's arm (weird BTW, I've never done that) but more just the-wait, will they hold the door-I made eye contact-now they are holding the door-it's taking too long, I better run-awkwardness

I hate when people refer to their second child as their first child's name with 2.0 on the end (like Jill 2.0). I feel like it implies the second kid is a better version of the first. It's always been annoying to me :P

@jessuhmarie‌ Wait.... Are there really people who do that? I mean I know I people nn while baby is inside (in fact Marchie 2.0 is the nn we use), but that's only until you come up with a given name. Also putting 2.0 behind your first kids name isn't even cute/funny. I doubt parents think it through enough to realize that other people might think they favor one child. They don't call their second kid this after birth right?

And I have the opposite problem believing that my first will somehow always be the best... But I've heard that moms' favorites tend to be second children because labor is easier

I'm kinda with you @toastercat my first has always been the best to me. Although I do love both my children, I just have a different relationship with him

Flowr4246 · July 2014

Agree that FirstKid2.0 is weird. Way to give both kids a complex doing that.

I also find it incredibly odd when people create FB pages for their newborns/infants. I've got a couple friends whose children are 3 months old or less and I see them tagged in FB posts. Completely bizarre to me.

Wait people actually do this???? WTF. I'm glad I seem to be missing some weird habits of people you ladies know IRL.

Flowr4246 · July 2014

Exactly my thought @pearsforpoops! If FB is still around when these kids are old enough to create their own accounts I'm sure they'll be so grateful for having to scrub of upteen baby bathtub pictures before they can do their own thing.

nina&bill · July 2014

pearsforpoops said:

I have a "friend" on FB who created an account for her daughter before the kid was even born. WTF are you doing. Now every time she posts a pic of the kid she tags her. OK, cute that all the pics will be there for her when she's older but guess what? They'd be there on your FB anyway and when I was a teenager and created my FB I certainly didn't want my embarrassing baby pics on there. Way to think it through, idiot.

While I'm here add me to team no avocado, no breakfast, no bacon, and no crunchy noodles.

But I'll eat sausage all day (insert dirty middle-school-kid laughter here). Crunchy sausage links are my fav.

I've seen magazines and articles suggesting this as cute! I liked the ones where you get them an email address and email them pictures and stories and give them the pw at 18 if you're going to do it! That way it stays private.

This makes a lot of completely unverifiable assumptions too, you know. The existence of hell is as much your opinion as a proclamation that isn't going to hell for a particular action.

On that topic, how about people who make FB pages for their pets? Or even weirder, pets that have passed away? I mean, I'm a pet LOVER! I adore my pups and would do anything for them. However, FB pages for pets? Dumb.

PuppyLove84 · July 2014

You people are crazy. Breakfast foods, avocados, pickles, peanut butter, and baked pasta are all amazing, and bacon is God's gift to mankind. :x

My UO is that the UO thread is kind of pointless because all we do is debate the merits of food and mostly agree on other things. I'm all for Bitchfest Mondays, WTF Wednesdays, and FFFC, but UO is not my fave.

wendyld · July 2014

@PuppyLove84 - I don't know why I can't quote you, but just doing my part with engaging on the going to hell comment.

That's weird, @randomnames‌. I've never had to duck under someone's arm when they held the door open. They've always held it open while not still standing in the middle of the doorway. It makes me think these courteous people around you are a bit dense.

I know, right! It happens to me all the time at a particular door at work. I think it's because people get to it from opposite directions. I always seem to come from the side the door opens to, so in order for them to open the door and not stand in the way they have to step in front of me. I say, just hold it open once your through. So much easier and less awkward.

I just bitch wherever I feel like, that usually works out just fine for me. I'm not about labels That being said, I really really wish women would do some reading before they come here and start asking questions. My first time I simply couldn't get my hands on enough information. Why can't they be bothered to google first? My patience is growing thin for all the new "is this normal posts".

Just let it out! Hopefully in the next week or so they'll slow down though.

I like that thing where you stick all your photos of your kid in an album and they can look through it as they please when they're older. Oh.

No UO from me today

copperrose · July 2014

My UO is we are about to be flooded with first appointment posts and unless something dramatic happens, I don't care.

I hear ya but it's not an assumption to me. I know that God is real because the Holy Spirit is with me everyday. I was just saying that it's not my place or anyone else's to judge what is a "good" action or not. That's why it's an unpopular opinion

----------why can't the nested quote function work---------------

So you can be certain of hell's existence/what gets you there and what doesn't, but I can't be certain it's fear mongering and manipulation to tell someone they are going to hell for doing something you don't like (like getting piercings!)

Weird. We had the same UO/rant! (I've never heard of "UO" before now).

And as I posted under my Rant thread, I'm also particularly annoyed today by FB peeps constantly selling their goods on their personal page. I wish they'd just make a business page for their product and let people who want to hear about how their special oils will cure everything go click that page!

shlittertoots · July 2014

I hate amusement parks with a passion. The thought of the crowds, the long lines, the prices, and the characters dressed in costume (I admit that's a weird anxiety I have) just gives me the shivers. I dread the day when DD will want to go to Disney World, because that is my ultimate version of hell.

You can absolutely be certain of that if you would like. It really bothers me when people tell others that they are going to go to hell for things like piercings or having sex (anything for that matter).
