I pit WIC

I don’t know; coming from you, it’s kind of disorienting. . .

As they say, Do Not Meddle In The Affairs Of Dragons, for You Are Crunchy And Taste Good With Soup. :slight_smile:

Welcome to the boards all the same, Dragon Lady, whether you stay or not.

You might be right? I heard the phrase from someone else, and loved it, and have used it since. But since you’re the first to point that out, I think you’re right. It would be the first that I’m going for.

Yeah, well, we all have our moments where we just can’t hold back. :slight_smile:

You should hear me in real life…it’s like every other word!

I haven’t had any problems keeping up with this thread. It’s those two posts (since clarified) that I was having trouble with.

For what it’s worth, I wish I could stick around. I just can’t justify shelling out cash to participate in a forum, even one capable of holding decent debates. It’s been a long time since I’ve dealt with people capable of handling a direct flame without getting their knickers in a twist.

The only barrier to me staying is that little “not free” thing.

I direct you to my more recent post. :wink: I’ve clarified that. It actually wouldn’t have turned into an argument, as in this case I actually agree with you.

It IS a myth that babies need bland food. The rest was a simple misunderstanding from a very poorly worded post on my part. That was a genuinely conversational post… I wasn’t trying to start anything on that subject, or imply that you were holding on to some myth. Honest.

Exactly what it says. I’m not implying that anyone else is pretending to be something they’re not. I’m simply saying that “I yam what I yam”.

The most logical reason for the WIC mothers at Sarahfeena’s daycare to get RTF on their WIC check is not because of a global formula conspiracy, but simply because their daycare center specifies RTF, and so they have told their caseworker that their daycare will accept only RTF, and so the caseworker puts it right on their WIC voucher, “RTF”.

And the most logical reason why I’ve never rung anyone up for RTF on their WIC check at my store is probably because nobody works, in our neighborhood.

Well, my daycare center doesn’t request it, but I guess the recipients could conceivably tell their caseworker that it does.

RedheadDragynLady, if you want to join, I’ll be happy to sponsor your membership for a year. Just to show there’s no hard feelings.

I said that, too. Then she tells me she’s an “F-bomb conniseur”. Go figure.

That’s a very generous offer. :slight_smile:

Tell you what. Let me hang around for a month (the trial membership ends on October 26, I think?) and I’ll get back to you on that. If I still want to be a participant, I’ll take you up on it.

If I stick with it for a month, I’ll stick around.

Kalhoun, you should have come to the Chicago Dopefest…then you would have gotten to know the real me in all my foul-language glory! :smiley:

OK, sounds good…just let me know.

I know! I saw the posts but not until it was too late. :frowning: Maybe next time!!

Bummer. I should have e-mailed you or something…I would have loved for you to have been there.

Well gee, that was an eye-opener. Who knew we could actually do our own research? Thanks so much.

Jeez, no kidding! I had to scroll up and check the name again! Wha???

Sarahfeena said the eff word! :eek:

ETA: f-bomb connoisseur my butt. Sarahfeena’s like one of the only ladies on the board. Don’t shatter my image!

Ha ha! I try to act with a certain amount of decorum most of the time…but this IS the Pit, after all! We’re all entitled to a little cussin’ every once in a while, right? As far as real life goes…well, I try to minimize it when I’m around small children or my parents!

Don’t kid yourself, sister…she drops F-bombs like she’s in a war zone!

Hee hee…it’s true. Just ask WhyNot…she can confirm this.

And I don’t wear the twin sets she pictured me in, either. At least, not too often!
