I hate the term AF I think it is way more disgusting than saying period. It skeeves me out. I think that adult women should be able to say period on a board filled with other women who also have periods.
What's yours?

When you've been married this long, you need a ticker to remind you.

And as far as AF goes, I read it as period. I sed it as a slang on the board not that people actually say that IRL. Kwim?
Kind of like WTF, I read it as the sentiment not as the actual 3 words it stands for.
UO: I don't like most female announcers. I find them annoying and pointless especially when it comes to sports related things.

I'm with you. I get that some people need closure and that's fine, but I really hate it and won't go in unless absolutely necessary. Thankfully, my family isn't big on viewings (or even funerals... on my dad's side, we just hang out at someone's house and have a party in the deceased's honor), but DH's family is. Ugh. In fact, I think almost every dead body I've seen has been on his side, with the exception of 2. And one of those was a family friend of his. I just can't. I can't handle it. And it makes me feel disrespectful to the dead if they're lying there and we're all off to the side talking, ignoring them, which I know is a ridiculous thought. But that's not as awkward as his cousin's wake... sadly, she had shot herself in the face so we're all standing there looking at her (because I couldn't get out of it) and they were all talking about what a great job they did fixing her up (you couldn't tell at all). They kept looking for the wounds. I wanted to puke. So disrespectful and... awkward or something.
Sorry, that got long. All I wanted to say was that I 100% agree, but I respect those that DO need that closure.
In Christ alone my hope is found. He is my LIGHT, my STRENGTH, and my SONG!
T-TTC since Dec 2008. PCOS/nonexistant cycles(anovulation) and endo. HSG in '10 revealed both tubes blocked. Lap surgery in Dec '10 to correct. Failed Clomid/IUI and injectable(Bravelle)/IUI cycles so far.
I'll have to think of an UO.

I'm torn on this because a lot of the time, I don't like it. But I can't say I don't like it as a whole because I have seen some ombre nails that I really loved. I think for me it is on a case by case basis.

I didn't realize this was still a "trend." Make room on this couch!
