Can we get some real flamefuls up in here?

[lostarz]

I judge the crap out of FI's ex when it comes to being a mom. I question how she actually uses the child support money since she can't seem to buy clothes/shoes that fit her kids (they're always WAY too big) so we end up having to re-buy everything, and even though she doesn't work all week (she works a few hours on the weekend) the only dinners she can manage to make come from a box or a fast food place.

I hesitated wearing a belt today because I previously was talked about on another board for over-belting. Then I was like, eff that. I hate that haters made me reconsider what looks better on my body.

Fuck them and their dumb opinions!

Hell yes to this.  You are f'ing gorgeous and you ALWAYS look amazing. It's truly a matter of others being jealous.  I have a bit of an issue with other boards being very 'mean girls'.  I realize it's not the case 100% of the time but it's a common theme and it makes me crazy.  It's like a double standard, the way they act about other people being that way but it's okay for them to come together and bash other people just drives me crazy.  (I'll probably get flamed for even saying that)

I got an evite for my friend's twins' first birthday party and it's potluck and she included a gift registry (she did say gifts aren't necessary, but still). Is that normal? I've never heard of a potluck for a birthday party. I think it's a little tacky.

One, a gift registry for one-yr-olds?! Two potluck? HELL no!

100% this

Gifts aren't necessary BUT you provide a registry?  And I would never think of doing a potluck for a kid's birthday party, especially their first birthday. I think it's very tacky!

My flameful is there is a poster on another board that posts all the time griping about this and that. I'm so over it that I don't even click on the posts anymore because I know it will be about the poster complaining about something.

I feel the same way about a poster and how dumb their posts are.

I complain a lot around here though, lol.

Lol! You are definitely not like the poster I'm talking about. Your complaints are valid IMO.

ETA- did you turn to social media yet? Raise hell on their Twitter, FB, & Yelp pages.

not yet. I'm waiting to see what their corporate office does and how they respond b/c the 'manager' at the location we went to that we spoke to didn't seem to care a ton.

Omg that is AWFUL!!!! Next time you are out of town let me know and I will watch your puppy. I would be LIVID!

I am in such a foul mood that I am literally looking for an excuse to be a bitch to someone. All I want to do is stay home for the rest of the week and be alone, but since I cannot do that, I DARE someone to piss me off.

OH GOD and I am just waiting for one person to tell me I am overreacting. OMG.*



*To be less vague, I got some possibly bad news about the baby yesterday. I am freaking out, even though I know it was just screening, and not actual results.

BIG Hugs Cab! I loved my babies more than anything in the world but being pregnant sucks and is a total mindfuck.

I got engaged to my boyfriend and we are keeping it a secret from our families for at least two more months. I'm even starting to sew one of my wedding dresses and it is still a secret.

We have been together for 6 years and my mom thinks a 4-6 month engagement should be plenty of time to plan a wedding... She mostly wants us to be married ASAP because we live in sin! (We have lived together 6 years already and I don't understand why 2 more makes a difference...)

Not flameful, but I wanna be NachoProblem when I grow up!!
My brother likes to joke that when I get my degree, it's "only" a PsyD, so like, not the real thing. Except I would be much more of a doctor than he would be were he to actually go and get his PhD in architecture... I just throw it back in his face that his LITTLE sister is gonna be a doctor before him.

Also congrats captainmel!! A long engagement is the way to go!! Ours was two years and it was awesome not feeling rushed, and being able to get all of the venues and stuff we wanted cuz we booked way ahead .

Trying to think of something actually flameful.

My BFs son is 10 yrs old and lives with us - we have him Sunday night to Friday after school, and when his mom decides when it is convenient for her, she will pick him up Friday night or Saturday morning and bring him back on Sunday.  Long story short... she told my BF when they were dealing with custody that she didn't have time for her son... she has a 2 year old with another guy, who is not in the picture.  And most of the time when he isn't with us on the weekend, his grandparents (exs parents) pick him up and then he comes home upset because he didn't get to see his mom.  She also just picked up and moved 3 hours away so he has been with us the last 3 weekends because "she doesn't have time". 

Anyways... so yesterday he comes home from the last day of school with a bunch of papers and there was a drawing thing that asked to draw a picture of his family... it looks like it was done at the beginning of the school year so I wasn't around until a month later... but he drew a picture of him, his mom and little sister, and in the very bottom, off to the side, really small, is a picture of his dad.  AND THEN it asked who he the most proud of and he wrote "my mom"... ughhh.  This made me hurt so bad but also pissed me off so I threw it out and put it at the bottom of the trash can so his dad wouldn't see it when he got home :-\  I know he will later in life realize which parent was there for him, but (here comes the real flames) I just want to shake him (not literally obviously lol) and tell what a piece of work his mom really is.

My Flamefuls

PDQ A close friend/coworker got accused by our employer of commuting basically one of the worst things someone in our profession could do, the proof they have is astounding. I'm kind of on team boss but I can't tell her that. It's hard to be supportive.

I'm wearing running shorts today and not running! But I am gardening/planting so can I have a free pass?

I bought a pair of sketchers, never thought I'd see the day.

Maybe not flameful.

I judged the heck out of my neighbor who was walking his dog when we were walking Henry last night and didn't clean up after his dog. We cleaned it up for him because I couldn't let it sit there.

I would have said something! That's not ok!

If I had one of those doggy shit bag roll thingies on my leash I would have asked, "Hey do you need a shit bag?  Because your dog just took a shit asshole."  

Dumbass.  

Oh and while bitching about dogs and dog owners I'm going to vent about our dearly beloved stinko.  

Last night I left a bag of trash in the kitchen sink that I planned to take out to the trash with the rest of the trash.   We didn't have any can liners so I had to run to the store.  Got back from the store and was about to put said trash in the trash.  Trash was not in the sink.  Though maybe DH put in the trash.  Didn't think anything else of it.  Thirty minutes later, DH comes around the corner with a shredded chip bag.  El Stinko had gotten a hold of a chip bag and eaten the rest of the chips AND part of the freaking bag.  Then I asked DH if he had taken the bag of trash the exterior trash can.  No.  Well maybe I did and I didn't remember it because I started taking Topomax, also known as Dopomax, for my migraines.  Went to to the outside trashcan to check.  Nope.  Not out there.  Then what do I spy.  The remnants of a grocery bag.  The damn dog got into the sink and got the bag out of it and ate all of the chicken AND the bag.  I shit you not people.  I thought I was going to black out from rage.  So today, in fear that he was going upchuck or shit that stuff out a day before our closing, his ass is at doggie daycare.  I think this may be the most times I've shit on this board ever.  That is how mad this dog makes me.  I'm ready to pull my hair out.  And this is with us living in a house.  I can just imagine how batty he will drive us in an apartment.

Lol awww sorry you had to deal with that. I would've been livid too. Thankfully our dog doesn't do this BUT he makes up for it by having crazy separation anxiety. We could never put him in doggie daycare because of breed restrictions and he HATES being crated or boarding so anytime we go out of town we have to find a actual sitter for him. He's so spoiled, but he's worth it.

And yay for closing!!! Woo-hoo!

[jm1211]

I've got nothing...maybe that's the flameful part? I feel like for the first time in a long time life is good, I'm not an emotional psycho like I was for a little bit. My biggest "issue" is I've spent mindless hours reading this board when I really should be doing something else and as a result I've become a spending freeze FAILURE! But for real this time starting June no.more.shopping! I just enjoy hanging out here even though I know I don't always have a ton to contribute but it's fun escape.

@natariru Stop it! Don't do it! lol I'm having *mild* haircut regret and want to punch people when they say "you barely cut anything". Although I will say your hair does look great and I have moments where I want to go shorter, I too blame Pinterest!

[Laura Palmer]

Late to the party and don't feel like quoting or @-ing everyone. But I think people here are awesome and I saw very few flameful things. I was disappointed. Apparently that's my flameful confession. Everyone here is too nice and needs to snark it up! :-#

NachoProblem - congrats lady! I can't wait until I'm done with school, another 4 years to go, but that is so great!!

As far as the other board, to give credit, some of my belted outfits I looked back on and was like, prob didn't need it. However, I think it's kind of shitty to talk about stuff like that and not be an active poster on S&B. At least say it on the home thread. (I understand the irony of this as I'm not posting on the original thread talking smack. It was posted a while back. haha. No one would even see my response.)

I don't know the context in which the comment about you was said. But who has the time to specifically call out someone for belting their outfits? for realz.
