My youngest was singing it in his sleep. We both survived, thankfully.

I love that you address that everything "invented" was by mistake! I was thinking to myself "Were they all drunk?" until I read that line.

This is why we can't have nice things!

I absolutely cannot stand that my MIL thinks Faux News is reliable news.

I would pay good money to not be able to remember my dreams. They're so vivid, and usually disturbing, and I tend to wake up distressed.

Thank the goddesses we married in quiet. No venues, my dad as photographer, small reception at my parents'... It was wonderful.

Sounds perfectly reasonable to me. I used to tell mine "I can't hear you when you whine. Use your normal voice." And it's good to not acknowledge their tantrums. When they're done, tell them it's okay to get upset/angry/whatever, but it's not okay to hurt yourself or anyone else because you're angry.

I subscribe to the school of take shit away from them. And I don't mean a trivial thing (to them). If I tell you to pick up your toys 3 times and end up having to pick them up myself, I keep them for a week; second time, two weeks; third time, they go to a shelter or the second-hand store. When they're older, if…

Works for me! Deal. (We should really start a petition.)

Works for me!

I can honestly say that, in my personal experience, the whole "how much large fish (including tuna) is safe for pregnant/nursing women" was decided over 20 years ago: No more than 2 or 3 cans per month, if memory serves. It hasn't changed since then, as I also had a "surprise" a few years ago.

A few things: 1) Did US get a restraining order to stop being included in Midweek Madness, or did you decide they were too far up the Kartrashians' asses? 2) Umm, DUH, of course the Kourt/Scott shit was "caught on camera" - it's called a film crew. 3) MeAnne, offending your few remaining fan(s) is not the most genius…

I've been in a few positions where I knew about employee terminations (usually because I had to handle them), and I've definitely overheard/seen things I'd rather not, but I've also been lucky (smart?) enough to keep my mouth shut. I also like to think I've been smart about my personal/private documents, putting…

Oh-hi-oooooooh, you should be ashamed of yourself.

Oh, they'll fight you on birth control, abortion, family leave, Healthcare, and other "socialist" programs, but have that unplanned baby, DAMMIT! Worry about how to provide for your unplanned miracle later; that non-existant choice and non-existant Glass Ceiling won't hold you back from receiving equal pay for…

And to get stains out of white clothing, make a paste of dishwasher detergent and water. Or use the gel.

Mine too!! It automatically started playing in my head!

I know two things about school meals in my state: 1) The companies who make the food/meals for the jails/prisons also make our schools' meals (except in very wealthy areas) and 2) The tomato sauce on a slice of pizza counts as a vegetable to the higher-ups.

I guess I'll have to bring the husband, too. He's a big guy with a security past. ;-D

If I bring my electrician solar panel-installing BIL, and my guns and ammo (I'm a decent shot), may I join you?
