What kind of infection do you think people are getting who wear thongs?
I hate to break it to you but fecal matter is also on your non-thong underwear.
UTIs, yeast infections. Things that go in the ass crack just gross me out personally. I also think they look stupid.
Hey-This post is about things that bother you that shouldn’t! I shouldn’t care what underwear people wear, but I do lol.
ETA-Actually yeast infections don’t apply because yeast is not bacteria. Sorry!
Ahh ok got it. I was just curious. I’ve heard people say they don’t get wearing thongs because it’s uncomfortable, but I’d never heard the infection thing. Thus, why I asked which infections you all were referencing.

And I know fecal particles are everywhere. It just seems counterproductive to actually try and get them closer to your vagina/urethra.
This! I have worked in healthcare for the past 18 years and I realize that bacteria is everywhere as well. I just prefer to think of my boy briefs as poop-free.
Yes! And I'll raise you with people who address people on social media when they aren't there (children, dead people, etc.).
THEY CAN'T READ YOUR POSTS!!!
Eh. I can see your point for children, but for people who are dead I see it as more of a “putting it out into the universe” that may be therapeutic. Knowing the person can’t read it, and knowing one can’t speak directly to the person anymore .... I don’t judge that at all.
Yeah, I don't think my dad is reading my FB posts. But it feels good to honor and remember him and usually other people will chime in with stories or their feelings. I don't know how to describe it, but I don't want him to be forgotten and I want other people to see him. (generally most are shocked that he was a ginger. lol)
My officemate uses the word attain all of the time instead of get or obtain and it makes me insane. And also it sounds like she's trying to use big words and not doing it right. For example "I will attain you that cup of coffee". "You have to go to the registrars office to attain that form". You attain a goal, not a cup of coffee! ARGH!!!!!
I'm going to suggest that you have this person eliminated.
I am not saying they cause infections but I will say tight underwear and pants plus moisture can cause contact dermatitis. In general it seems better to have more air flow.
"Hello babies. Welcome to Earth. It's hot in the summer and cold in the winter. It's round and wet and crowded. On the outside, babies, you've got a hundred years here. There's only one rule that I know of, babies-"God damn it, you've got to be kind.”
We do a "Secret Santa" with my in-laws and give a wishlist when our name is drawn. So we're basically in a room, unwrapping gifts THAT WE WANTED and then have to guess who gave us the gift. A lot of men write down gift cards. Wat???
I mean, I'd rather save my money and not trade gifts at all. I can buy my own shit on my list.
We've tried the White Elephant exchange and that didn't go over too well. What is wrong with people??? Why do we have to exchange gifts/GC's? Why can we just give the kids gifts and save our money?!? #RatchetsetForLyfe #Baughhumbug
That is so annoying!
And reminded me of another annoyance related to this. We have done no gifts the past few years with family and I love it. But of course this year my sister decides to set up a Christmas couples exchange for the adult couples in our immediate family. Kind of annoying but fine. This is billed as a fun adult thing, with a limit of $80. We got matched with my stepsister and her husband and their list is ONLY gift cards or things for their toddler kids. Particularly annoying because one reason this is meant to be an adults only thing is that I have infertility and we are childless not by choice and the holidays are kid-centric and hard. But to add insult to injury, they want their match to buy them toddler socks and underwear - of all things. These people have a HHI of roughly $400,000, these are not wish tree kids. Don’t make your infertile step siblings buy your kids necessities you can afford to provide!
Man, I'm glad someone brought up Father Daughter Dances. I hate them, and I have no idea why.
Yes! I wasn’t a fan of dances as a teen either so maybe that is it or maybe they are trying too hard. I don’t think DH would go to one unless all his friends were going and dragged him with. I might do a mom / son one but they aren’t a dance. It’s more casual and dinosaur themed or something like that. The Father/ daughter event might be better if it were less dance and more just casual evening with activities.
Reminds me when I was struggling with IF and I had to go to Mother's Day celebrations at my in-laws where they all give each other gifts. I walked out after watching all mom's trade gifts with each other while I awkwardly sat there giftless. That was hard. My MIL called me the following day to ask if I was ok. It was the first time I unleashed and let her know how cruel it was. She apologized profusely and genuinely. They're just a family that LIVES for gift giving and didn't think through other people's feelings.
Unexpected/extra lab orders. I was expecting 8 vials drawn but was surprised with 3 extra lab orders my new doctor put in (including a gallon sized medical jug to store urine and keep refrigerated). I like that he's proactive in my care but I don't like being surprised and wondering what the tests are for. It makes me anxious and go down the rabbit hole of the "what ifs".

I agree with this. My FB friends who post things like this--I appreciate it. It helps me feel like I know them a little bit better because they are sharing something important to them. Something about their family. If it is someone I knew also then I can chime in with a memory and it feels nice. If not, I still feel like I understand the person who made the post a bit better.
Calling an in-law mom or dad. I didn’t know that was a thing and it’s so weird to see some people actually do that.
Fun enough, I had never heard of people calling their in-laws by anything other than mom or dad because it was the norm for me growing up. I just expected it to happen and didn't realise it happened in other ways until I got to adulthood and heard friends calling their in-laws by first names.

Fair enough. I find that, at least amongst my social media contacts, the ones that do it are in general terrible attention whores, so it's an extension of that trait.

I get it. I'm generally more of a private person myself + the ones that do that on my social media also do all the attention whorey things, like address their 5 month old on facebook.
