I’ve lived in the midwest my entire life.  I tip 20% and my friends consider it standard.

He rode an illegal vehicle through a red light at other cars and pedestrians and crashed.

Is anyone buying earbuds because of what they look like?  They’re for your EARS, bud.  You can’t even see them when they’re in there.

Most people I know are using their Airpods for phone calls as much as music.  They work great for calls.  Almost no one needs or even wants the BEST sound quality out of their earbuds.

I agree, fuck the South.  Unfortunately the South has infiltrated the North and you see assholes driving around Michigan (!!) with giant confederate flags flapping behind their pick up trucks.  So.  Fuck everyone I guess.

Seriously, moms ARE getting black out drunk in front of their kids.  It’s pretty normal for upper middle class working white moms to drink A LOT of wine, and sneak alcohol into their kids’ school events so the events are “bearable.”  If you think it’s not a problem, you just haven’t been exposed to it.

These types of “mommy” groups are constantly bragging about sneaking alcohol into school events, apple picking in the fall, etc.  Who the fuck is driving their kids home after?

No, they do the opposite.  They pull the “our job never ends, moms have to do everything, amiright?” bullshit.  

No, fuck that.  I love being a mom so much.  But I’m also a professional with plenty of passions and hobbies outside of motherhood.  And a social life.  And time to exercise.  It’s HARDER to make choices for yourself when you have kids, but it’s not impossible.  Giving up then getting drunk to bitch about it is not…

“My beef is that far too many women would see a pile of laundry and pour a glass of wine in response rather than telling their partners to do their fucking share.” 

Damn dude.  

Just another mom of young kids chiming into say this is some super obnoxious horse shit and I’m so sick of it.

This was great to read, thank you!  I’m in the “working mom of young kids” crowd and the other moms think I’m nuts for quitting drinking.  Some of them are visibly annoyed when I decline a drink.

This is awesome I’m so happy for you. I quit around the same time. Definitely lost some mom“friends” who think it’s completely crazy that I quit drinking.

I stopped drinking soon after my daughter turned 2, because wine had turned into an absolutely necessary crutch. It was the DEFINITIVE signal that the “working mom” part of the day was over and the “relaxing woman” even was beginning.  I started drinking close to a bottle almost every day.  Even when I didn’t want to…

You really think kids won’t have ample opportunity to learn about lying and cruel jokes if their parents don’t inflict those things on them?

You must be doing something right raising her b/c that is a SOLID prank.

They might hide your unpainted toes, but your flaky ass ankles and heels are still out there.  

Did you mean to say even BETTER?  Heh.

Oh yeah.  10 years ago “cool girls” were all about shitting on leggings.  What are they wearing now? 99% chance it’s leggings.  Because leggings are life.
