PB & J Recap

[hermione]

@this @bettyhomewrecker33 anyone?

I just can't give 16 pages of my time to peanut butter. But I'm already pot invested. Someone summarize both threads, please?

[bearbaby]

I'd think if you were indeed already "pot invested" you'd be really into reading about some PB&J's, no?

[redheadk]

OP: Will someone judge me for giving my kid an uncrustable?

- No, go for it.

- You can, but OMG the sugar! I would NEVER.

- Why are you people too lazy to make a pbj for your kid, easiest thing to make ever!

- Bunch of people: Because when you are busy and overwhelmed, sometimes you just want to grab a sandwich from the freezer for your kid

- Break down of actual amount of sugar in sandwiches

Monkey Monkey Underpants.

Lol. Perfect recap!

@this ALWAYS comes through with the recaps. Legit LOL, with Coke Zero up my nose. I didn't get a chance to read any of that yesterday, but now I am going to.

Also, I had a PB&J for lunch today, which is like a super rare occurrence. I only did bc DH made one for himself (actually, he made 2, one for bfast & one for lunch) so everything was already out. But I did use my homemade raspberry jam. And we have Uncrustables in the freezer, which my kid won't eat.

@this thank you for summarizing. Your summaries are like the ultimate Cliffs Notes. Where were you in HS?!

I'd actually listen to baseball on the radio if there were color commentators like @this.

@this that recap was on point, I wish we could give you some MMM Storyteller title or something.

ssmjlm it was just thejen being thejen and then trying to deflect the asshattery by calling herself a bitch and giving some story about spilling beer on her stroller to try to be endearing to us common folks.

Everyone one-upping each other for four pages.
Me leaving because it was making me insecure.

Oh oh I can join that one! My 20 month old can't put together 2 word sentences and still barely talks. Yay, I finally fit in!

No no, just strollers with squeaky wheels. Stop twisting words, man!

@this, you should reincarnate TWOP as GBCNWOP.

I cackled at the $8 riesling reference. My husband looked at me weird. Strong work.

"Is your kid advanced?"

98% of answers: "No (breezy), but actually Yes."

[speckledfrog]

I got my own line in the recap. .:preens:.

[hermione]

Thanks,@this.

[Deleted]

Woohoo I made the recap! Thanks @this.

[starlily]

Dying at "Go sit down with your $8 riesling!" Lol forever!

Team Starry on Pop Tart hate. If I'm gonna blow some calories, I'm gonna eat a muthafucking Snickers.

I WILL NOT ACCEPT VILIFICATION FOR POP TART HATRED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I also find Pop Tarts disgusting. They were one of the foods I pretended to like as a kid, because it was weird not to. See also: Chef Boyardee, Kraft Macaroni & Cheese, and watermelon. I felt so freeeee when I could drop the charade.
Edit: and FULL CIRCLE, I was already "weird" in the junk food department because of my peanut allergy. Apparently, I was the only '80s kid with a peanut allergy.

If I want a "bad" breakfast food, it's going to involve bacon and/or cheese and/or Hollandaise. For a sweet treat, I want a real dessert. Pop Tarts don't fulfill either category especially well, IMO.

I never liked these either. But Pop Tarts are a tasty snack (not breakfast food). Who doesn't like watermelon, though?

 Why are you trying to ostracize me? 

Honestly, I've tried so many times to like watermelon, but I just can't. I'd sooner eat it than other melons like cantaloupe and honeydew, but... watermelon really doesn't appeal to me.
