My horrible job at the rodent lab, with my lazy, dishonest boss.
My emotionally abusive/cheating SO, whom I keep going back to.
The fact that I’ve worked as a stripper, and may do so again because the money is so good, and if you have an issue with that, it’s your problem, not mine.
…what?

If I wanted snide remarks about other posters, I would have started this in the Pit. Though I do think this makes a good example of “things I would like you to shut up about,” at least in this thread.

I apologize, and I’ll bow out of your thread.
I do sometimes wonder if I post too much about being a factory worker or a single mom, but I figure since I’m just not that prolific I’m probably flying way clear of the annoyingly repetitious mark.
I’ll second What Exit too, while I remember about your husband’s disability from various discussions, I’ve never once thought you harp about it or are anywhere near 1TP range, js. No worries.

Since I mostly post about Cuba, and only start Cuba threads I am certain there are some who would like me to shut up about it. But the things is, Cuba is about the only thing where I know more than just about anyone else here, so not wanting to look like and idiot that’s what I restrict myself to.

What lalenin said, except replace Cuba with Native American stuff.
I worry people would like me to shut up about being from India. I feel self-conscious about it but I can’t often help the way it’s shaped me. I’m just waiting for someone to yell at me.

I don’t think I post often enough to have pissed anyone off yet. But feel free to correct me if I’m wrong.

Same here, although it’s possible I’ve hit a tiresomeness threshold about being a Mike Keneally fan, bashing Detroit, and having once been friends with Bill Watterson. :rolleyes:
I don’t actually think that people notice my presence here at all for the most part, but if they do, I’d say probably my participation in parenting threads or my frequent references to my kids.

Oh God is she talking about India again!?
JK. Speaking only for myself of course, one of my favorite things about the Dope is the armchair travel. Og knows when I’ll be able to go to India/Tasmania/New Zealand/Saudi Arabia/etc., so I love reading posts about those places from natives or current residents. Things like Paul in Saudi’s comment about how antidepressants are sold otc in Saudi or what the non-Mecca route places are like during the Hajj are things I find fascinating and that you don’t learn from magazine articles or Hitler Channel documentaries.

My family in particular and southern stuff in general.

Trust me Sampiro my friend, you should NEVER stop talking about those things. Your stories and anecdotes are part of what keeps me here at the SDMB. If anything, you should post more of them.
oh, GOD-not INDIA again… hee. We love your Indian stories, Mika. And I think Sampiro is actually from South Dakota–it’s all an act.
I think I post too much about my sucky marriage/sex life. I’m sure most of you are like, just end it already. Me, too…
Now that I have a nursing job that I like, I don’t think I bitch about work too much.
I may brag about my kids some, but not enough to bug anyone, I don’t think.
The movie Pearl Harbor stank on toast, but I really shouldn’t keep harping on it.
I’m sure there are people who get tired of me saying: “Being selfish is not always wrong!” It’s still something I consider an important message, so I’m not going to stop, but I do try to make sure that I only say it when it really and truly is appropriate to the thread I’m in.
Oddly enough, for many of the people posting here, I like hearing their topics, and don’t want them to shut up about it. Especially those with backgrounds that are foreign to my own experience.
