I just don't understand how people who are truthful and trying to help get banned, but others who cause problems are still on here? Doesn't seem fair.
My twatwaffle on the other hand is that me, the pregnant one, is left behind at work today while literally EVERYONE else gets to go wine tasting!!! So not fair on so very many levels. And two hours of sleep at night are just not cutting it. To all you sleep deprived mamas out there - my imaginary wine glass is raised to you!!
My TT is our brand new "smart" box spring. It comes in a small box and you put it together then zip the cover over it, really cool. Except the cover doesn't fit, like it was made for a queen not a king doesn't fit. Not really cool.
My twat is the catfish that came back. I would of thought after someone found out they were truely a lie and even found them on FB that they would go away for good. But I guess catfish just don't get it and are crazy anyway so what should I expect. Bring on the post on every thread again!
Feeling extra snippy in my last few weeks..... And WTH for ginger [-X hope the ginger avenges
Three things and then I'll just let you vent your anger, which is justified because she was your friend and I have no interest in a long, drawn out debate or the AW behavior I was so loathed for before--btw, whoever told me to just take the damn mood stabilizers...thank you. People IRL can actually stand me again.
1) Finding a Facebook profile based off snippets of information doesn't prove anything at all. How many people are on Facebook? I mean, this whole issue aside, seriously. In addition to that you can only view a limited amount of information on Facebook depending on privacy settings so that wouldn't prove that the person on the profile wasn't pregnant because you couldn't see pregnancy photos, or hadn't studied a certain something because you couldn't see it listed. Not being friends with the person really restricts how much information you can learn from a profile. There is also no guarantee she even found the right profile. Mine has been inactive for over six months. The last information or photos of me on it would be pretty outdated.
2) I am not a catfish. I'm a pregnant twenty-two year old and yes, I'll cop to some MUD behavior and I'll apologize for the AW behavior and the drama. I'm way past it and really, my main purpose in being here is less to talk and more to listen. I mostly just read threads and learn from them. I don't expect to ever really be liked around here and I find that it bothers me a lot less than it did before. The mods have a pretty good grip on things. I'm not a baby snatcher. I'm not a crazy woman here to cause drama or get your friends banned.
3) I didn't report ginger--she was just trying to look out for the board. I get that. I don't even know what I could have reported her for since she didn't, to the best of my knowledge, break any rules or have three TOU violations. I haven't been here that long, I could not possibly have gotten her the first two even if you blame me for the third.
That's it, really. This thread does not seem like the place for me so I'll remove myself back to lurk on the breastfeeding posts.
------QBF-------------------------------------- But yet here you are again making one of our weekly fun threads about you and your MUD. And what I can see from all of your recent responses you offer no actual advice to anyone and you have a weird way of making everything about you still. Your presence on this board is not and has never been well received so why keep coming back other than to get butthurt about everyone calling you out on your shit, and to get great contributing members banned.
It's really not fair to accuse me of "making it about me" when I'm obviously being referenced as the twat in question. That's like saying "apple did so and so" and when apple says something being like "apple, how dare you make it about you." That might be a bad parallel. I'm sleep deprived. I'm not butthurt, I was just stating the obvious. I don't have any other usernames because I'm not, again, a troll. The mods can track IP addresses. How can you blame me for getting ginger banned? I have no power or authority here and if you review the posts I've commented on since yesterday, I haven't been anything but supportive--no drama whatsoever. Really, you can get annoyed with the mods but it's quite unfair to say that I got her banned. And @jcasher I wasn't really wasn't aware of those. I'm trying to live under the radar here but if it's going to be impossible, I'll strongly consider that.
Live under the radar. Haha that's fucking hilarious! Since you have returned is there a thread you haven't commented on?!
my twatwaffle today is my back, i've been having crazy lower back pain since last night, tried hot showers, stretching, drinking water, tylenol. Don't worry, waiting on a call back from my doctor, I'm not one of those....just wish it would go away!!
also sad about a certain red head, it seemed like things calmed down for a while but the last few weeks people have been ban happy

I don't really get how she's made this thread about her.
Probably a half dozen PP's TT for the week were the "catfish" getting a regular banned... We all know everyone's talking about @PetitNightingale.
All she did is respond to previous posts. If you don't want a thread to be about someone you don't like, I don't know why people would go on mentioning them. I would absolutely defend myself if I was getting blamed for something I had no part it. I. DON'T. GET. IT.
Also, I have seen her offer support on multiple threads to the OP. Soooooo... Yeah.

Really?? This white knighting label is a BS cop out. I have an opinion, deal with it.
It's not a cop out, it's an opinion. Which I'm allowed to have as well.
I don't care if you agree with the catfish or not. But I'm sorry, after following this series of events for a long time now, there's just no way I'm going to wrap my head around her being who she says she is. There's just no way. Too many inconsistencies, too many "plot" holes, and too many contradicting posts.
Can I call my own kid out for being a twat? Seriously kid, stop poking me. I'd rather hear him yell mom 100 times than be poked repeatedly, especially in the stomach.
Also, holy moly drama, I think I prefer drive-bys at this point.

Fair enough. You think I'm white knighting, I do not. You think she's a catfish, I don't really have an opinion on the matter. Settled.
I've also been following the whole catfish saga from day one, so I'm well aware of the dealings. I'm not supporting one way or another, I just didn't understand calling someone out and then blaming them for making a thread about themselves when they are just answering the call.
Edited because I had quoted way too much and scrolling is annoying
My Twatwaffle is DH. He's pissed at me because I'm feeling a little "woe is me" today. I had some pretty decent contractions this morning, didn't sleep well, miss my baby girl, miss DH, don't get too many visitors and because of the extremely well managed GD, still do t get outside food. I'm stuck eating the hospital crap.
I tried to get this all out and he's all " this isn't easy on any of us, Jenn, it's not just you " well f*%k me for having feelings, DH.
Oh, and he STILL hasn't done Ellie's room. He called me today to tell me that he's going out for paint today and might get to painting it but he may just put it off until Saturday. We have 17 DAYS until Maddie arrives and that's IF I don't have another bleed.
Also, all of the baby clothes are still packed away in the garage. So, I guess I'll be washing and organizing all of that when I get home.
My twatwaffle is but of course, myself today. I dropped a glass a few days so and thought I got all the pieces by sweeping and then going over it with the vacuum, apparently not. Stepped on that sucker first thing this morning.
Ultimate TT to whoever reported @gingeravenger! What is the reason for the ban? Being too awesome? Being too supportive? Being too valuable a contributor? What is the charge?????
My twatwaffle is but of course, myself today. I dropped a glass a few days so and thought I got all the pieces by sweeping and then going over it with the vacuum, apparently not. Stepped on that sucker first thing this morning.
I did the same thing a few days ago, so I feel your pain!!! I'm feeling more and more uncoordinated as this bump grows.
My TW this week are the cops who pulled over the couple for speeding on their way to the hospital and proceeded to make the father lay face down in the road whilst his wife was screaming in labour in the car and taunted him saying "guess you're going to miss the birth".
They got her an ambulance and she got to hospital just in time to give birth. Baby had the cord around her neck and would've died if she didn't make it to the hospital in time and the father was taken to the station and booked, so he missed the birth.
I don't condone speeding and the cops had every right to pull him over but surely they could've stuck them both in the back of the squad car, taken them to the hospital and sorted out the speeding issue later.
Um. If she was clearly in labor, the police are supposed to provide an escort to the hospital. I would be reporting that police officer.
I lurk. I snark. I offer sound advice if you're not BSC. You may not like me. I'm okay with it.

Live under the radar. Haha that's fucking hilarious! Since you have returned is there a thread you haven't commented on?!
In a helpful non dramatic or self centered manner. Oh my God how terrible. I haven't started jack shit and don't plan to. I'm not drawing attention to myself, you're choosing to waste it on me. No one is forcing you to engage.
1) My OB/GYN office from before I moved. So I get that it's not their fault because it's an automated phone system that doesn't know I'm living 5,000 miles away with a 6 hour time difference. But! I still did not appreciate being woken up by a call at 4 AM to a call to let me know they added another partner to their practice. I wake up enough to pee, I don't need an extra wake up for information that is 100% irrelevant to me.
2) My husband. So, we got a fish tank like a month ago and he swore he would help out with maintenance of that. Well, I've been feeding the fish just cause I don't want to have him forgetting to feed the fish. But I absolutely hate dealing with dead fish, it freaks me out so bad. We hadn't had a casualty in a while after we got a group of fish that actually got along, but on Sunday evening we had a fish die. My husband told me he would get it later and I accepted that. The next morning I didn't see the fish, so I thought he got it. I asked and he said he hadn't, so I figured the other fish might have eaten him. But then it showed back up. I don't know how it was hiding before, but somehow it was. Told my husband the dead fish was definitely still there and needed scooped. Nothing. This morning I dropped him off to head to the field until the weekend, so now I have to scoop the fish out. It may not be that big of a deal. But he said he would do it, and I really don't want to do it.
TT#2 as I'm in the baby section at the PX, Some lady is looking at the baby hair accessories. One of them had 4 hair clips for $5. She says "these are $5?! That's just retarded!" I give her a look of disgust and say "I am carrying a child that could be "retarded", and there are plenty of children out there that are "retarded", please don't go around using that word like that." Got my blood boiling.
