Colander, meh! My house has like, rooms on TOP of the ones on the ground. Beat THAT!
We’re so rich we don’t have to wash dishes! We eat off fresh new plates every meal.
Our hut of sticks and dung has sleeping mats.
I thought this thread was started over the Trashy Things You’ve Seen Lately, but I am finding it hard to keep up as I had to go purchase a colander on layaway.
Oh, I might be confused. This happens from time to time. I realize this Pit was in response to a recent thread, but I thought BigT’s mileage comment was in regard to the “Child of Money” thread. Anyway, carry on.
Edited, other than to fix my over-use of “in any event” - How have I missed this beef between lorene and lindsay? Apparently, lorene is following linds around snipping at her? I’ve only seen lorene be nice. But what do I know? I’m bad at paying attention, particularly to people’s board drama.
for mistaking your gender. Upon reflection, I probably assign imagined gender to user names on a nearly random basis…I now have a mental image of a gentle, kindly, fem bear…
**Lorene **hasn’t been following **lindsay **around snipping at her. Nobody has to follow **linds **around to notice her. Every time there’s a post where someone is self-congratulating over eating her whole grains and crunchy vegetables, or inexplicably viciously attacking someone out of nowhere, it’s her name on the post. Then finally, after her dropping the descriptor “obese” twice for no apparent reason other than to describe a trashy person and “it took place in a wealthy suburb where people fancy themselves better than other people”, **lorene **called her on it. I thought someone else would have done it awhile ago for her over-the-top insults or pretending to be a doctor because her parents are. (I can’t believe I missed the whole child of wealth thread the first time around. I saw it and blocked in Ffvb Mgmt Firefox as being too crass to bother reading, fool that I was!)
I just want to say - lizOnya - I just got the username.
Did you ask your husband first?
Precisely. I don’t have the time or the energy to follow anybody around the boards, but lindsay and I do end up in some of the same threads like the minirant breastfeeding debacle in which she incorrectly went off on Lavender Blue about how breastfeeding clearly is enough of a problem for some [states] to outrule it entirely (2nd cite). That’s the kind of misinformation that would have her calling others unintelligent or ill-informed or “goddamned stupid” like in the Doctor thread I linked to on the first page. But in the minirant thread, lindsay didn’t even acknowledge she had the facts about legislation and breastfeeding wrong.
That’s the kind of shit I notice. Shitty, vicious attitudes.
Man, I’m glad I didn’t see that thread. I breast fed my kids in the mall, coffee shops, airplanes etc. Discrete and the only response I ever got was encouragement. On one flight a mom with a screamer who wouldnt take the bottle saw me nurse and began nursing her baby and the whole plane let out a collective sigh of relief.
No, my parents taught me that if you have to ask, you can’t afford it!
You … you shameless, immodest harlot! Ugh. You may as well sprayed milk all over the cabin. At least tell me there weren’t any children around; they could have been eternally scarred by that nasty little peep show you and your stripper friend did.
Goddamn it! How do I miss all the good stuff? Breastfeeding in restaurants is the same as changing poopy diapers? “outrule”? When did she turn into zpgzealot? I really need to get more on the ball!
Scarred the lot of them we did. Bwahahaha.
Me too - generally I like her fine.
Nobody else thought “Christmas bells are ringing” was funny? Because I lol’ed.
Now me, I’m so rich I keep live animals around the house just because I think they’re funny. They don’t pull a sled or catch rats or anything.
My favorite lindsay opinion was in the online dating thread when she warned people not to say they’ve visited or want to visit Africa in their profile. Because apparently only nutcases travel to Africa, and everyone knows that. Except me, of course.
From now on, in my everyday life whenever someone says something that I disagree with, I’m just going to say, “You’re outruled.”
Then if they try to argue or ask me what the hell that means, I’ll say, “Tscht! Outruled.”
I missed that. See I just thought she was a snotty little brat, but that makes me think she actually is a bit cuckoo.
Good lord. What a nasty piece of work.
