I've stayed out of all this hot mess for the most part, but @booby - didn't somebody tag you over there?

I felt like mofongo (Omg I'm so sorry if it wasn't you!) was all "this is what @booby was trying to tell you ..."

I only ask bc ppl are acting like you're a crazy person following Kirkette around, which I didn't think was what happened.

Feel free to correct me if I am wrong.

Yes.  This is why I never discuss the poster that cannot be named but is undoubtedly still  here.   ::waves::

I keep typing and deleting.  Lularoe fans...I just think they need new people validating their fashion choices.  There is no way people really think those patterns look good!  I refuse to believe that.  The solids might be fine, I don't know.  But I've not seen a good pattern.  Not one!

Am I wrong in thinking you're a Matilda Jane fan? Am I thinking of someone else?


..I'm only here so far, but I'm going to keep reading.

I buy a lot of Matilda Jane for my child, yes. I do not buy certain styles (like the big ruffle pants). I'm not opposed to patterns. I'm opposed to ugly patterns, lol. And before people say there are ugly MJ patterns, I agree. I don't buy ugly ones, just ones I like. I've also never seen an LLR pattern that is similar to an MJ pattern - they are two very different pattern styles. Finally, patterns on children =/= makeup compact leggings on a fully grown adult female out of her house!

But if we really want to debate whether I have good taste or not, I'm happy to post every single picture I have of my kid in MJ! I'm an AW like that.

Why does it always come back to baby clothes??

Because baby clothes are everything that is good and right in this world. I mean, have you seen this year's Janie and Jack swimsuits? I live for those.

(I'm only sort of kidding)

Without regular BOOTD posts, pressure builds in ML-land with all of the unposted baby clothes pictures, and it needs to burst forth somewhere, like a volcano, including threads about, ah, racism? callouts? microaggressive chicken? (I'm super unclear, having read ~4 pages total between the MMM thread and this one.)

I think if you just wear a tight enough band, then it wouldn't be a problem.

Matilda Jane makes adult clothing, too! Ruffle pants for all!

There are plenty of odd LLR legging choices, but it's not all leggings, either. 

As one of their best customers, I'm aware, lol.  I still don't buy them.

I know LLR has more than leggings.  I said the plain stuff seems fine.  I meant - dresses, leggings, skirts, tops.  It's the patterns in all those styles that makes me think people might be blind.  The patterned leggings are the most offensive though.

If stellas ever comes back, I have like 500 botd posts saved up to post.

Does BOOTD need Stellas to exist?  Can children ages 5 and 9 participate?  I'd be into a BOOTD, because sometimes (okay, always, because MH certainly does not get it), I feel like I'm the only one who enjoys the fruits of my kids' clothing efforts.

I have no kids but love looking at cute kid pics so I say tomorrow just make a bootd post when you snap the pics.

Stellas can stay home unless she has someone done a full 180 on her racist, bigoted, homophobic, xenophobic ways

I don't recall stellas making xenophobic comments. Do you remember anything specific?

What the fuck happened here today?

[05heel]

If you all start that baby clothes nonsense again I'm goIng to start posting my baked good of the day. And if I don't have anything freshly baked I'm going to go on at length about my most recent flour acquisitions and storage methods. Do you know why I don't do this already, even though fucking everybody loves bread and cake? Of course you do. Of course you do.

You do.

the storage capacity I lose due to the gasket thingamajiggy is not worth the expense or marginally improved shelf life. I'm a plain flat lid for life girl. I've choked on too many clouds of tapioca starch and masa harina using those things. And I compacted my malt powder so flat that I had to chisel it out. I hate you, Oxo! So do my lungs and my pancakes.

See how boring this is? Lol. Replace some key words with Gymboree and leggings here and there and your eyes will be as glazed over as my signature lemon pound cake.

I need to add that I did get the joke, but I'm passionate about my ingredient stash. I'm appropriately ashamed but I couldn't stop.

H and I saw some clip of a goose attacking a guy the other night, and he kept clowning dude for letting a "silly little goose" nip at him like that.

I had to let him know "nu uh, H. those things are vicious! here, let me tell you a story about this lady I know..."

he's now sufficiently terrified. lololol. just spreading the good word!

(I don't care that this is not relevant to this thread. it's relevant to LIFE.)

there's a pond about four doors down from me and it's teeming with geese. I don't know what kind of fool would buy that lot. They don't come in my yard, so we just watch them fight and act like demons from the safety of the screened porch. The pond iced over this weekend and N was all concerned about the geese. I was once concerned about a goose. That goose then kicked my natural black ass as a thank you.

Just come to my house. There is only an occasional goose wandering around. (I'm actually being serious).

Isn't this just the ML way? When a thread gets tense, someone tactfully changes the subject and we wind up talking about baby clothes or boner kites.

Stop it.

The posts? I will, actually. You're the only friend I have in here, tators. The rest of you are enablers and wish to strip me of the little dignity I have left.

The biscuit section stays though.
