I said really dumb uneducated things about the Baltimore riots and am glad that people were able to educate me and put me in my place (hence why Im not commenting on TX, because I'm not at all up to date with whats going on).
I know thedahliharpa has brought this up before but I'll say it more in depth...
i think the random threads should stop and that if we have something to share, we should start a new thread. I feel like I am missing out on important things because I am not reading 5 pages but also I think some people feel the need to contribute to it when they really don't.
Yes!
Random thread: I am eating a great sandwich right now.
New thread: I got a new job!
I agree with Trudy's breakdown. I don't want the randoms threads to stop though, because then where would we talk about the great sandwich?
I always feel a little weird when there is something sad in the randoms because then you feel like an ass for posting about your sandwich.
I thinks this is more a confession, and not even the "flameful" variety IMO. If you had something to say about the rioting in Baltimore but nothing to say about the shit that went down in Waco I'm side eyeing the hell out of you. Speaking generally, unless you of course fit the criteria.
I have plenty to say about both but I really feel like these conversations are too nuanced and in depth to have on the internet. I have lots of friends who can say pithy one sentence zingers about these events but I just can't.
I get really frustrated when people take the attitude that not saying something on facebook means I don't care. *Obviously not saying that at you. Just thinking out loud.*
Me too. My family feels this way. I'm sorry, but I'm not getting involved on facebook. We can discuss it face to face, yelling, like all Italian families.
The whole painting thing is my dilemma with so many things...I hate stuff. It becomes a thing you feel like you should keep but really don't want to. It gives me anxiety.
I wouldn't mind doing it - it might be fun - if they kept the paintings afterward and had the ability to wash and reuse the canvas for the next drunken gaggle of girls.
I think some of the bragging about kids gets out of hand and it makes me roll my eyes.
My kid (the 1 year old) just read this post, translated it into German for me, and will be typing a response shortly. He has to finish practicing his long division first.
A couple people told me that starbucks new "cold brew" iced coffee is super delicious. So today I was like fine I'll give it a go. It tastes the same as their regular iced coffee but costs quite a bit more! lame

I like McDonald's iced coffee myself*. Just as good, a fraction of the price.
*as long as they don't put an insane amount or cream and sugar in it.
I was watching Regis and Kelly once years ago. They did a blind coffee taste test. Kelly picked McDonald's coffee as the best tasting. You should have seen her face when they told her she picked Mickey D's. LOL

Buzzfeed video did the same thing. McD's was one of the favorites and Dunkin and Starbucks were lower rated.
A friend of mine here (whose son is the same age as Butters) would not shut up about how big her son's penis is ... how even her lesbian friend commented on it!
Then I saw the kid's wang.
Guess what?! I guess Butters has a big penis, too!

Eww that's gross. why would she want to brag about her child's penis? that is something I would keep to myself...that's weird.

Yes! She has actually mentioned it before (we don't see her very often). It's now a running joke between DH and me.
Anyway, it grosses me out to talk about penises great and small, and especially when they're attached to a child, but ... he has a totally NORMAL sized penis.

Sometimes the bragging thing irritates me too. I feel like it turns into a one upping contest. I mean everyone should be proud of their kid's abilities, and I guess I don't know how to articulate what I'm getting at, but sometimes the sensitivity sensors are broken.

Yes. I also think people are a little full of shit sometimes.
