    Now I'm beginning to think you're in cahoots with my husband to get me to move there. I'm not leaving pittsburgh damn it!

    But, we can play all the games you want when you come visit me and @MRads! I might even let you win.

    I meant to say, I'll have both our shares of drinks, lose interest in the game, start an argument with someone, and pass out. At that point, everyone but me wins.

    We drink our Iron City (pronounced Arn City) out of highball glasses and pair it with Cracker Barrel cheese on game nights.

    Call me crazy, but I thought this board was called "Getting Pregnant," not "Bitter Bullies Who Can't Get Pregnant." Yes, I've seen a lot of people be supportive... But holy mother, a lot of you are immature and rude for no reason. This board is like high school.

    Just someone who lurks and is sick of watching the attacks on "insensitive people" who don't "know their audience." I know you'll all go about your normal ways anyway. It's just sad that certain people always have to be so condescending to anyone outside of this little clique.

    Yeah, you are totally right! People who make this place a community have no right to get pissed off that people don't take the time to lurk and get to know the feeling of the community before they post.

    Actually, most people who aren't insensitive jerks are welcome here. I don't understand why people have a hard time grasping that you have to introduce yourself before joining a group. You wouldn't walk in to a supermarket saying, "I want a winter baby" don't do it here. It is ignorant. People who intro he very warm responses.
