Re: UO - 8/17

  • @ollydolly That sounds like Tract housing, and yeah, i hate them too :)

  • I'm a little late here but I thought of one. 
    I'm not a fan of Tom Hanks. I think he's super unattractive and a corny actor. The only movie of his I like is "You've got mail" but I'm pretty sure the reason I like it is because of Meg Ryan. 
  • @egirl1025 we must be pretty close! I live in Ravenswood. Which suburb do you live in?
  • @libbberty I am in a Muskego, a suburb of Milwaukee.  Very nice, quiet city (Muskego I mean, Milwaukee is a bit iffy in places, much like Chicago).  It does lack a bit on the diversity side, but we moved there for the public school system.  We moved outside the city, from a nice neighborhood a block off the lake about two years ago and it was a bit of an adjustment, but I feel that we have really found our forever home.
  • @GraceUponGrace09 I like Tom Hanks in certain roles but not everything. Same with Will Farrell. 
  • @libbberty I don't think I knew you were in WI too?!?

    I can't help it. I've always been a fan of Tom Hanks. I love how corny he can be but also how great a serious actor he is.

    I am not a fan of Channing Tatum. I don't even think he's that attractive. I know so many people who are totally gaga over him, but.... meh. And his acting (or lack thereof)! Use a different facial expression once in a while!

  • @peepster Bingo, totally agree with you on the Channing Tatum. He looks strange to me....
  • I didn't even know who Channing Tatum was so had to Google him. Yes, he looks weird - all of his features are crowded towards the center of his face. 
  • @KatieEl, I'm totally with you. A shower= receiving gifts. Hosting any event for yourself where the receipt of gifts is expected is nothing short of gift grabbing. It's great to have to have people buy baby stuff for you, but it's no one's responsibility but mom and dad to do so. 

    @supercoolstephy, do you not just invite friends over for a cookout? Why can't you just do that? That sounds like that's all you're looking for, anyway. That has nothing to do with having a shower. Group text: "Guys, we're hosting a cook out. Our place. Saturday at 2!" 

    @RC1014, I'm with you on showers for additional showers. My sister brought up having on for this pregnancy- and she should know I'm against it. Luckily it was easy for me to tell her that the answer is a hard no. I have a friend who keeps bringing it up, even though I keep telling her I really don't need anything. "But you don't have any boy clothes! We'll just have a sprinkle!" I don't care what you call it, I'm not interested. We decided to have another child knowing we might need to make some purchases. It doesn't warrant a shower or something under a different name. 

    We through a sip and see after the arrival of both of the girls and will likely do the same for this one.

  • @Peepster I feel that way about Kit Harrington. He's gotten SLIGHTLY better but he's pretty bland IMO.
  • @scatteringashes Full disclosure: I had to Google who Kit Harington is. I've never watched GoT. He's not bad looking.... But not really my type.

    Tom Hiddleston, on the other hand... <3

  • @schaze @egirl1025 haha! I made a big assumption about Lake Michigan and assumed it was Chicago. Let's just say I don't have my degree in geography. I do love me some Sconnie though (despite being a Minnesotan).
  • @GraceUponGrace09,
    Noooooooooooooo!!! Tom Hanks can do NO wrong in my book!
  • I am one of those gaga over Channing Tatum girls. He is the whole package in my eyes, super attractive, adores his wife, works hard, and so so funny. Humor goes a long way with me, add that body to the mix and o...m...g....!!!
  • @cyanope @GraceUponGrace09 I know! Tom Hanks forever!  <3
