The foghorn talk reminded me of something. I think I've shared that post VBAC the velocity of my flatulence could bring down a small aircraft. What you don't know is that every time this happens I imagine Randy Jackson from American Idol saying "Dude! You blew it out the box, yo!" in response. Then I laugh.
I am dying at some of the language in that article.
There is no mode of argument, no state of grief, no kind of righteous anger that actually results in your butt hurting. No one suffering a breakup feels "butt ache" from listening to love songs on the radio.
There is, however, a pretty obvious cause of butthurt that everyone envisions when they try to think of its point of origin. It's called getting fucked in the ass.
I always thought your metaphorical butt hurt from being given a verbal wedgie, but I can see why it would be taken as an anti-gay slur.
Every time my butt has been hurt it is because I have a giant metaphorical stick up my ass. Once I pull that sucker out and relax I am much happier.
Yes! I used butthurt to mean you have a giant stick up your butt. I do not think any of us use it in a way that is anti gay.

My dad owns a company that does maintenance and housekeeping of rental units where I grew up. He's expanded a bit to include regular residential cleaning and this is how he says it usually works out.
The cleaning ladies get a flat rate per house cleaned. They do not get 100% of the money paid, but they are legal, insured, driving company vehicles, and bring all of their own cleaning supplies. They don't really get tipped on a regular basis, but their holiday tips are usually the cost of one cleaning, in cash. So, if you pay $100 every two weeks for them to come, they'd get a $100 tip at Christmas. It sounds like a lot, but it works out to about $4 per visit if they come every two weeks.
Not very flameful, but I'm somewhat in the know and thought I would share.

How do I love thee, let me count the ways. That is fucking awesome. It makes me think you have an incredibly awesome and animated inner monologue like JD from Scrubs, and just when I think you can't get any cooler, you do.
I have to think of a better FFFC, because right now all I've got is that I'm letting my kid climb all over me and growl so I can read and participate in this. She may have just licked the dog during the course of the response too.
I have cleaning ladies. It is through a local company. I don't tip because they do a horrible job, as in they forget to dust at least 2-3 furniture items everytime. They have forgotten to mop the kitchen floor. I plan on stopping the service this week. I won't be getting a different company, just doesn't seem worth it.

Also, I feel we have learned that gays do not have a corner on the anal market. In fact, I think it is more derogatory to think of gay people when the word butt is mentioned.

Maybeeee....they do a horrible job because you don't tip!
My cleaners did a really great job doing what they did. But the things I needed done were just not included in the package I was paying for.

I went on one cruise and hated it. I got that diarrhea sickness that people get sometimes on our last night. We also smuggled in alcohol. We did pay for some alcohol but it was nice to have drinks in the room.
My nephews birthday is the day after Lillian's. My SIL just informed me that wants his party the weekend after and I can take the weekend before. I wanted the weekend after. I told her I prefer the weekend after and she said so does she. My kids first fucking birthday, I should get to choose. So I emailed her back I guess we will have 2 parties on Saturday. So I guess I am being a baby about it but shit. I will end up doing it the weekend before but I want to see what she says.
My cleaning lady is well worth the money - she comes every other week, gets $18/hour, does all the laundry, cleans the stove and the oven, cleans the fridge, all the bathrooms, the floors and is great with J so she'll watch him if I need to run out for something. She's the best, I love Claudia. I give her double her usual week's pay at Christmas and we wear the same size clothes and shoes, so if I have something I dont want and she likes it, I'm happy to give it to her.

They didn't even do a good job the first time they came to clean! Didn't vaccum the baseboards, didn't clean the blinds, ceiling fans, windows, all stuff I put in my package and am paying for. I tried talking to the owner but it didn't fix anything.

I'm pretty sure most of you would be disgusted at the state of cleanliness of my house. It's bad and I need to put in more effort, but I fucking hate cleaning and we can't afford a cleaning lady.

I reserached and surveyed friends the first time I had a cleaner come. First time is supposed to be a big tip, then smaller tips for maintenance.

Sent from the future.
I totally agree. I just remembered reading the article when the term butthurt was mentioned. Just one person's take on it.
I waste water. I know it is bad and I do it anyways. I was also irrationally pissed that I couldn't get a pedi yesterday because of my damn skinny jeans. Why can't skinny jeans be perfect in every way???
The place I go is in my mall. I would have probably ran to Target to get sweats to wear. No one messes with my pedi time.

We could never afford a cleaning lady right now lol Plus, I know I'd be the lady who'd clean before the cleaning lady came because I'd be paranoid she'd be judging my dirt. So it'd be counterproductive.

From what I've heard, you have to pre clean anyway.

yeah, our cleaning person didn't tidy. to i had to move all the shit and then they'd wipe stuff up (vacuum, mop). i had to pay extra if i wanted them to do the blinds, floorboards, and outside of appliances/cabinets.

I hate trucks. They are fucking loud, ugly and there is nothing at all nice about them.
And they make too much fucking noise when my baby is napping!
In my head, I compose odes to my hatred of trucks at least every other day.
Are you talking about trucks that we drive or Semi trucks. I Know semi trucks can be scary to drive with on the highway and they are annoying. But i always think of how Semi-trucks play a pivotal role in the American economy. Think about it. Everything we need to survive basically comes in on a truck. I then get less annoyed at them when i am in traffic, or in your case when they wake the baby.
When C had a double ear infection in late November, we brought back the RNP so she could sleep on an incline (she wouldn't go down flat because it hurt, and the pedi suggested elevating her head. This way, we could bring her into our room when we went to bed anyway.)
It's now mid-January, and she's still in the RNP, and now refuses the crib at 8.5 months old. She's only 17lbs (25lb weight limit on that thing), but is still way too old/big for the stupid thing. I haven't worked very hard (I try for the first hour every night and then give up) at getting her back into the crib because she's still up 3-4 times a night for MOTN feeds, H has been out of the country for 2 weeks and I start work M-F at 5am. I'm fucking exhausted but I know this is bad. Total mom fail.

I'd be paranoid she was judging me too. DH offered to get one when DD was a newborn, but I told him not to. I also am a freak and wouldn't think she cleaned as well as I do. I have issues.
I posted this in an ML confessions post already, but last week I used J's sippy cup by my bed one night. lol. I had a lot of sinus drainage and needed a cup of water that my cat couldn't spill or get into.
This is awesome. I am jealous that I haven't thought of this. The cats knock over my cup of water at night a couple times a week...

I think having a car wash and begging for donations to help pay for your friend/family member's funeral is tacky and distasteful. I seriously hate being pestered at the convenience store for money. I'm sorry for your loss, but I won't fund their funeral. Sorry.

I have a straw cup that I've been giving Adeline to play with like a toy. I filled it up with water all the way to the top. She's had it for a few days. Yesterday, I went to clean it and it was only half full. Um, I guess she's drinking water from a cup. "Few" day old water from a cup. Oops.
