The Gross Thing I learned tonight...

C3Duffy · July 2015

Never trust a fart.

Constipation can come back whenever it wants now....

kbedfox · July 2015

Sounds like a terrible experience but this made me laugh out loud!

christinam2014 · July 2015

Omg!!!! That happened to me the other day! I've been constipated lately and it just randomly showed up!!!

Kiek · July 2015

Lololol!! Sorry, I'm only laughing because I've totally been there. The worst! It happened when I was lying in bed next to my hubby.....naked

DeleaJean · July 2015

My hubby just farted, which caused me to nearly throw up. And then I cried about it. Heyyyyy there hormones!

C3Duffy · July 2015

Oh yeah, naked here too. Thank god it wasn't an ungodly amount but oh my. Now I can't tease my husband about the time he shit his pants.

mrsgillham14 · July 2015

Um...Thanks for that.

Shatzegirl · July 2015

Lol that happened to me when I was around 5 weeks and now I'm scared every time I pass gas!!

Quazel · July 2015

Thanks for the visual. Awesome.

bookqueen · July 2015

Pretty sure I didn't need to know about your sharting...

C3Duffy · July 2015

You're most welcome.

HBirdie · July 2015

This needed its own post?

C3Duffy · July 2015

Good lord, lighten the heck up people.

Yeah, no, sorry, I'm just tired of the million posts that 1) are disgusting and upset my already queasy stomach and 2) could easily be covered in a symptom or FFFC thread... 8-|

C3Duffy · July 2015

It was funny FFS. Seriously, it isn't the end of the world but I'm sorry I offended the delicate flower.

HBirdie · July 2015

Not offended. I think you're misreading my tone. I just think it's gross and a little unnecessary. Clearly I'm not the only one.

eta: words

C3Duffy · July 2015

Would you like me to go into detail about the amount, consistency, color and smell? My post was funny and vague, hardly stomach churning but to each their own.

p.s: You don't get to decide what other people's reactions to your posts are. Ah, the beauty of the internet. You may have found it funny, I found it gross. The end.

C3Duffy · July 2015

Posted that before you, and maybe I am but if you think it's unneeded then move on? I'm a funny, rude, gross, totally open person. So yeah, it was funny to share for me. Clearly I wasn't the only one who thought that, but you can't please everyone.

I wasn't dictating your reaction. I was just saying it could have been way worse, I kept it vague for a reason. So you found it gross, the end.

C3Duffy · July 2015

And just like you can't decide what people post and where? So... here, I'll edit my title. Would you have avoided it now? Probably? Okay, I'll keep my nasty easily recognizable. Does that work?

Yikes, you need to calm down. I'm not telling you where to post, just asking why it needs its own post when we have appropriate threads for it. It's annoying when the board is cluttered with a bunch of unnecessary crap (haha! punny) and it's hard to keep up with stuff. But you keep on posting about your nasty bodily functions all you want to, no one can stop you.

Quazel · July 2015

I, too, must draw a line here. Gross? Yep. Bad for m/s? Yep. Funny? Nope.

C3Duffy · July 2015

Eh, because it's funny. And I don't consider it a symptom or complaint... just a funny, gross happening. And FFFC, it isn't a confession. So no, to me, it doesn't belong in either of those threads. I don't see how a "cluttered" board makes it hard to keep up with stuff? I find it harder to sift through page after page and sort names from names vs just an OP. Yes, a gazillion repeat threads every day or so is annoying. That I can get behind, unless it's going to shart on me....

And who gets to decide what is unnecessary? What deems one person's thoughts/feelings/experiences unnecessary? Seems a bit high and mighty to me, to shame people into posting in a specific area because it inconveniences you. (You, general) I just find it a very condescending attitude to have toward people, newbies or people who just don't care, or don't view something in the same light as you.

Okay, funny to me, and several others. So, we laugh about it. Not funny to you, and several others. So, you make a snide comment with a good GIF and move on. It isn't that complicated or dramatic.

g8trkim · July 2015

So people didn't care for your post. Why are you getting so upset? Just let it be.

mrs3615 · July 2015

I think your posts have gotten excessively crude for the sake of crude. Sharing something with wit or snark while being open and honest is one thing- but some of your posts are just really nasty for nasty sake. When you talked about your smelly vag and then a few posts later in the same thread about using your vibrator multiple times In a row to help with lightning crotch I was pretty grossed out. it just seemed a little much, but at least the comments were buried in a thread. This is an excessive post for the sake of an excessive post, and it's just getting a little old.

C3Duffy · July 2015

I don't care that people weren't a fan, everyone has a different sense of humor. It's the "it doesn't belong here, must be organized" "is unnecessary to be posted" high horse attitude that rubs me wrong.

My god, you guys seriously need to lighten up. Pregnancy is gross, diarrhea and gas happen. Smelly discharge happens. And if you have never used a vibrator, you are seriously missing out.

mrs3615 · July 2015

I have IBS and I've used a vibrator, but placing the two so closely together made it look like maybe the smelly vag was because you aren't cleaning your vibrator enough, and that it actually had nothing to do with pregnancy (whether that's what you intended or not, or whether it's the correct conclusion or not) and it really really grosses me out.

g8trkim · July 2015

I guess, to me, it just seems kind of attention seeking.

No gif from me, not sure what you are referencing. Agreed that some people found it funny. I wasn't one of them and have no problem sharing my opinion. Opinion =\= drama.

HBirdie · July 2015

Orrr maybe, if multiple people are telling you the same thing, it's possible that you're oversharing with a group of strangers that you've just started interacting with in the last month, and not that we need to "lighten up."

Just a thought.

C3Duffy · July 2015

Well that's just revolting but what happens when you assume. The two have nothing to do with eachother, it's a vibrator not a dildo for one, and strong smelling or just different smelling discharge is totally normal in pregnancy. Why else would I have put that in a "you know you're pregnant when" thread?

I said vibrator, and they still need to be cleaned just as a dildo, so I'm not sure what your point is.

HBirdie · July 2015

I mean, you really can't see how sharing about your smelly vag, discharge, your vibrator, AND a sharting experience all in one week is a little too much? Yeah, pregnancy is gross and I'm sure eventually a lot of us will be sharing yucky/TMI things with the board because who else are you going to tell? But we're all JUST getting to know each other right now and you just aren't painting a pretty picture.

C3Duffy · July 2015

@HBirdie nah, see if you're going to go through this together you might as well start out all out. It's hardly over sharing.... it's pregnancy related and yeah, gross. At least it isn't another nausea thread. The way I look at it, if I'm shamelessly sharing nasty stuff at least someone who wouldn't knows #1 that they aren't alone and weird, #2 won't feel as shy or ashamed to talk about the weird, gross, "tmi" stuff, #3 it's funny/worse than what someone else is dealing with and might make them smile on a shitty day.

@Quazel I was saying in general, not you specifically that posted the gif.

MamaFroFro · July 2015

My stomach is just so queasy. When I clicked on this post earlier it made it 10x worse. It's just not the kind of stuff I find funny, but to each their own. There are so many other ways to be humorous. We do have options... Maybe you could start your own say-whatever-you-please group with others who do find this stuff funny and save some of us more queasy folks the added nausea.

I know what you said... and yes, they do. A dildo and smelly vag would just paint that disgusting thought in my head sooner than a vibrator would. That's why I said dildo.

Ah. I guess I can see that a dildo would draw that conclusion more- but I think it was the fact that you used it repeatedly in a row mixed with the smelly vag that made me queasy.

Eta: the point is- there just seems to be a lot. Sounds like some people find it entertaining or validating but some of us don't. Maybe add a disclaimer to your posts or something as po have suggested.
