    People who don't train their dogs make me so angry! Also, just because your dog is small doesn't mean you get a no-train pass. Untrained small dogs are just as annoying as untrained large dogs!

    Surprisingly more vicious too. I'm not a fan of tiny dogs because they're so much harder to train.

    @MamaFroFro , agreed 100 percent. I could punch my new neighbours. Their daschunds bark 24 hrs a day. They try to attack people while on leash. They remind me of these little piranhas that terrorize the other neighbourhood dogs.

    @strlitemiss I once witnessed my 100+ lb dog cowering to a lose and vicious itty bitty chihuahua. I agree with you completely!

    Yes! My husband and I complain about this all the time. Small dogs are awful because people think they're tiny and don't need to be trained!

    My dogs will sniff you to death! Don't get too close or they'll sneeze on you!

    ETA: I'll also admit, my dogs are total assholes. There is no training them, seriously. The breed was for royal families and were taught to sit on a damn pillow all day every day so now they are all like that. No joke. Biggest asshats ever.

    Yes! People seem to think that picking a little dog up when they are misbehaving somehow helps. Nope it just makes your dog more fearful and more vicious

    Mine stems from the nursery thread, I understand neutrals and using Grey but I don't understand why people want such white colorless nurseries. I can't imagine having everything be white... I need color of some sort, even if it's yellows or greens. Someone on my fb friends did all black and white pics and grey and white bedding in their nursery the whole thing looks like she posted a black and white picture!
    I like the gray look, but babies need color! I plan on doing a light gray wall, and maybe white furniture, but color everything else

    I hate hate hate...having guests at my house. Especially for more than 3 days!!! Leave me alone, I need my space! And that's why I don't have a guest room, to discourage them from coming over and nesting here.

    -------------------------------------

    Babies see contrasting colors best so maybe that is why they do the black and white. I'm not sure but I think even if that is the case a baby would get bored with it quickly as his/her eyes develop.

    I found this article and will try to keep in mind some of these more stimulating ideas when decorating the nursery. https://www.fisher-price.com/en_US/playtime/parenting/articlesandadvice/articledetail.html?article=tcm:169-17040-16

    So interesting how our brains/eyes develop and change what we see!

    I have small dogs 25 lbs and 10 lbs, and we trained them from puppies exactly how I trained my old German Shepherd. Small dog syndrome comes from people treating small dogs like babies not dogs. They don't know where they stand in the pack so they assume they're alpha and always try to correct everyone's behavior, other dogs and humans. I can't STAND IT. Ours don't bark or jump, play fetch, heal off leash and are the happiest friendliest pups on earth. No dog is born viscious, its lack of training and socialization and there is no excuse for it.

    Eta: agree they can be harder to train, depending on breed. My 10 lb dachshund is a sweetie but stubborn as hell!

    Yes! This goes along with the whole "rustic" trend that's going around and I hate that too. It's just ugly.

    Noooo! I love this trend. Probably because I grew up, and still live in the country in the middle of no where and my grandparents lived in an old farmhouse and I just loved everything about there house. It wasn't decorated rustic by any means but that's just what was in their house because it was old and that's how it was.

    I hate hate HATE the sauce Dunkin' Donuts puts on their turkey, cheddar & bacon bakery sandwiches!!! For a brief, glimmering moment they had the turkey, cheddar & bacon flatbreads with no such sauce and they were the light of my life. The sauce ruins it for me. I don't know what it is, but it's gross. I'm just assuming this must be a UO because if it wasn't then they wouldn't keep putting that dang sauce on and ruining their sandwiches!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Rant over :)

    I like gray too and if we have a boy we're going to do gray and white accents but have a pretty aqua color as the primary color.

    I know a lot of people like getting checked in with regularly or get annoyed if people don't pay their pregnancy enough attention, but this is my 3rd and I am avoiding telling many people still at 16wks because I don't want to hear "How are you feeeeeeeling?!" every ten minutes. Fat, OK, I'm feeling fat. Go away now. I'm also hormonal, was that apparent? ;)
    Oh my goodness - I am SO regretting telling my co-workers I am pregnant. Every.single.day "how are you feeling?" Seriously, you don't need to ask me daily. They've known since about week 6 and my god, I am just so not looking forward to when I am hugely pregnant - I am sure I will hear "when's that baby due?" "any day now, huh?" and "are you sure there's just one in there?" I know people are asking because they care but it just gets on my nerves so much!

    I've taken up all of our bedrooms so that they are not guest rooms. My father in law still comes over and stays for more than a week! Drives me insane!!

    My UO about little dogs is that I think unless your dog is a service dog, stop carrying them around with you in your purse or under your arm. Seriously, around here people are bringing their ugly little chihuahuas into the grocery store and it irritates the crap out of me. 

    And also that tiny little hairless dogs like chihuahuas are just gross. They're like rats with collars on. I wouldn't ever want to touch one. haha

    Grey with accents is fine, you're adding a COLOR so it makes it okay.
    First pic is super boring to me and I picture a toddler in there...and toddlers are not clean creatures. So unless you make your nursery this and then as soon as they turn 10 months (about when they eat puffs etc) you plan to change everything.....

    Second one is better has yellows

    I'm not a Trump supporter either but I feel the same dislike you feel for Trump, for Obama. He's the worst negotiator our presidency has ever seen and for many reasons I despise him. He's made our country look like a joke to other countries much more so than Trump. Trump's just running as a candidate who will likely be weeded out soon anyway but Obama is the president and has done WAY more damage.
