samanthal320 · May 2016

The bump has been wildin out on my phone. It kicked me out and then said my account was invalid. I had to try to make a new one and then when I signed in it worked. CMON NOW!

sammyl1221 · May 2016

Okay let's see if this works.

Hooray it does!!!

mamabirdoftwo · May 2016

I have never liked the show Friends. I honestly don't get the hype. It's so boring.

KateH1216 · May 2016

I've never liked Friends either @mamabirdoftwo Or Seinfeld for that matter.

phoenix870509 · May 2016

I'm with you @KateH1216. Can't stand Seinfeld. Friends I liked though.

Here's my UO - I can't stand Game of Thrones. I caught one part of an episode and thought "How can people watch this level of violence?" So nope, not ever watching it. Good thing DH isn't too interested in it, I would have to leave the house if it was ever on.

tinattt23 · May 2016

I'm with you. I don't like Friends or Seinfeld. Or really any show/movies that most people consider funny. Besides The Office. No one will watch tv with me

I do like Game of Thrones though

penelope4612 · May 2016

Sometimes I think that all the extra work I have to do leading up to and following 3 days weekends and vacations makes them not worth it in the first place.

Christinaruth74 · May 2016

I don't get the Bachelor/bachelorette hype. There I said it.

OMG this! My mom is obsessed! Why? It's too much high school drama, and these are grown men/women!

Kacie209 · May 2016

I can admit that I have watched a select few seasons of the Bachelor/Bachelorette... but no more. I think it was the Bachelor Ben season where he picked the most awful person ever compared to the nice wholesome girl, who was a great catch. That was it for me. It has run it's course. And they make such a big deal about it too.

ashleaf2018 · May 2016

Teen Mom 2 is my guilty pleasure and I always catch up on missed episodes on Hulu.

No shame in my trash TV game.

brittnic86 · May 2016

Apparently my husband and I are of the unpopular opinion that circumcision isn't necessary...and it's not something we will be doing if we have a son. I think it's pointless and barbaric. DH isn't, and he's never had any health issues...and honestly I never could tell the difference. The only real argument I've heard is about hygiene....so teach your son to wash himself.

ashleaf2018 · May 2016

@brittnic86 We will also not be circumcising, so you are not alone in that. To me, it's something that, should we have a son, he needs to decide for himself. Also, FI is not circumcised, so I don't see the point in doing it to our son when FI has never had it done.

brittnic86 · May 2016

@ashleaf2018 right?! People have been looking at us like we're crazy for saying this. Except my MIL, of course, because she didn't do it to DH lol.

princesslockness · May 2016

@ashleaf2018 @brittnic86 I don't think that is as unpopular as you think. I would just be careful throwing around words like barbaric. Discussion about circumcising and vaccines usually get extremely heated and don't need fuel poured on them.

brittnic86 · May 2016

@Kate08Young oops, I didn't realize it was a hot topic debate. My mistake!

fauxpa-2 · May 2016

I'm actually surprised you guys are getting so much flack for not circumcising. It actually seems to be the popular opinion around here at least.

Nooooo! I love them both!!

slartybartfast · May 2016

I miss Oprah.

brittnic86 · May 2016

@Fauxpa well my mom and friends seems to think that. I'm a FTM, I'm still learning everything! So if I did offend anyone...I wasn't trying to. I do know enough though to never bring up vaccines lol.

FitTris · May 2016

I love pool season, but I really, really, don't enjoy taking my children to the pool.

princesslockness · May 2016

@brittnic86 No worries. I just didn't want to start one of those threads.
I have found that areas that circ. vs areas that don't are very regional. Over here in Mormon Ville it is a pretty UO to not, where as other regions it isn't.

phoenix870509 · May 2016

@brittnic86 it's your choice, and your son's (or sons' if you're having 2 boys) choice later on. I have friends who have chosen to not have their son circumcised and he's fine. Personally, if I have a boy, he will be because I'm Jewish and that's how things are done. *shrug* To each their own. You do what is right for you.

I feel the same way. My husband is pro circ though, so that makes things super difficult. Thankfully, we have 2 girls, so we haven't had to face this yet. We are team green this time, so I we have to talk about it. My il's think I'm insane for not wanting to circ.

jennbaylor12 · May 2016

I definitely do not want to do anything to cause a Hot Topic-esk board and have never been and will not now become one to start drama. I will simply say that I have a son, my husband is in the medical field and will be a licensed nurse practitioner at the end of this summer, and we did an excessive amount of research and had many long conversations before we made the choice To circumcise our son. And I most certainly do not consider myself a barbarian nor is there any way I would ever do anything intentionally cruel to hurt my son. It is definitely just a personal choice just like choosing whether or not to have the genetic testing done that we have been able to all discuss so appropriately and respect each other's opinions on so very well in the other threads

Sharkey · May 2016

Oh, joy. Nothing like a good old fashion circumcision debate.

Seinfeld is awesome. Y'all are crazy.

brittnic86 · May 2016

Like I said, sorry, poor choice of words, didn't mean to offend. I guess my UO was my choice of words lol.

And of course I understand those who choose to do it for religious beliefs; DH's grandmother is Jewish.

emisi · May 2016

We didn't circ our son, I figure it's his body, his choice if he wants to do it someday. I'm working on teaching him how to wash properly.

My UO is I hate the movie Elf. HATE it. I can't stand to watch even a bit of it, it's not funny and gives me fremdschämen. (Real thing, look it up!

)

ashleaf2018 · May 2016

@emisi I used to love Elf, but it just gets so over-played at Christmas time. It does get super annoying come December.

LinziLoo09 · May 2016

I don't have a dog (a penis?) in the circumcision fight, so....

My UO: I've never had a pedicure and don't want one. Don't touch my feet! I'll kick you. Similarly, while there seems to be an unwritten rule that every woman who wears sandals has to wear toenail polish, I break this rule 99% of the time. I just don't care and don't have the time.

tinattt23 · May 2016

@LinziLoo09 This! I rarely have my toes painted and I wear sandals all but maybe 10 days out of the year. I hate real shoes! They're so constricting. But painting my nails is too time consuming. And paying to have someone else paint them is such a waste in my opinion.

mrsstarski86 · May 2016

I was all for the circumcision until the doctor came into the room to do it...I backed out because I was scared of the pain and aftercare. I think there's valid points on each side, especially when people feel strongly about it. I didn't feel strongly either way, so I chickened out. I think the last time I heard, it's about 50/50.

My UO: I love soggy sandwiches

just went to subway and got extra mayo and extra oil/vinegar lol sooo good.

doodleoodle · May 2016

I can see both sides in the circ debate. DH is all for it, but I'm not so sure... I truly have no idea what we would do if this LO is a boy.

My UO is that I LOVE rainy days. They are the coziest.

fauxpa-2 · May 2016

My UO is that I love hallmark movies. They are just calming, mindless, and positive. Anytime I'm having a rough day I'll just curl up and watch one. I always feel better after.

Although I also love game of thrones... If that makes any sense.

I just threw up a little in my mouth. but I used to work at subway and hated drowning all the sandwiches in that stuff. when I had to refill the mayonnaise bottle after only making two sandwiches, there is a problem.

omg and the rest of you. all you all are crazy. friends, Seinfeld, bachelor, and pedicure lover over here. girls you are seriously missing out. the massage chair, the foot scrub, it's magical. I can never get my heels that soft at home! plus my toes are seriously weird looking without polish. feet are ugly AF and anything I can do to make them look better is bonus.

LinziLoo09 · May 2016

Haha here's another UO for you then @zubenescamali - I prefer my calloused foot pads and heels because it doesn't hurt if I step on sharp things. The result of a decade of ballet and a childhood of running outdoors with no shoes. I don't want my callouses scrubbed off! I've worked hard on them. When we go on our beach vacation next month, DH is going to be screaming his way across the hot, gravelly parking lot, while I'll just strut in pain-free bliss

I'd kill it on Naked and Afraid if survival solely consisted of walking on sharp things.

Oh and I'm a total Bachelor lover over here. The more ridiculous drama, the better. DH watches the show hoping for a happily-ever-after, and I just watch it for the crazy

Christinaruth74 · May 2016

Confession: I was pretty good friends with Nathan's new GF back in the day. (That reference is for all the TM2 fans) We are still FB friends but she moved a while back and we lost touch.

Another UO- I think it's dumb to have a wedding at 4pm on a Friday. How the crap am I suppose to find a babysitter, especially since it's an hour away. NO ONE IS AVAILABLE TO COME OVER AT 245 IN THE FREAKING AFTERNOON. sorry. Maybe that's more of a bitch.

mrsstarski86 · May 2016

@zubenescamali Sorry! I can imagine it's especially worse because you worked there! My first job was a chain steakhouse and after a week, I couldn't eat there. The yummy delicious free bread smelled like the kitchen floor to me, too much back of the house information.

zubenescamali · May 2016

@mrsstarski86 haha yeah the only thing I can still eat from subway are the cookies, except the macadamia nut ones, those taste like something I can't even mention on a public forum.

Toller · May 2016

@Christinaruth74 I feel you about the wedding thing!!! Gahh

phoenix870509 · May 2016

From someone who got married at 330 pm on a Friday, it's all in the planning. We booked a venue a year in advance and told everyone the date as soon as we put down the deposit. So everyone we wanted to be there knew it was a Friday afternoon wedding and to plan accordingly if they wanted to come. Getting married on a Friday is cheaper than during the weekend and, Jewish thing, couldn't get married on a Saturday.
