Re: DRAMATIC POLL
I'm going to be dramatic for a second..
I already replied on the "Superlatives" thread, but WHAT THE HELL Y'ALL?!
I have no clue why it's so small. On TK it's the right size. *sigh* gotta love TN

Good, it's not just tiny for me.
See it down there?
It's so awesome too. It's ross "giving the finger"

Can I still play? Or am I too late (as usual)?
1. Biggest fight you've gotten in with a family member? friend? what was it about? My dad has only been mad at me twice in my life (that I remember). One of the times was when I was being a real *** to my mom. We had been yelling at each other and my dad intervened. I was pissed, so I ran out the front door and he chased after me. My arm ended up getting slammed in the door. Yeah, I totally deserved it, even though it was an accident.
2. Lamest argument you've had with the FI/H/SO/ex/whatever? Who started it? (Be honest.) Only argument, actually, was via text. He said some stupid and self-depreciating comment (after a rough few weeks) and said that my marrying him was a mistake. I didn't like it, so I called him out on it. I even let loose a few swear words, and I almost never swear. That led to badness all around. Lesson? Don't fight via text. :P
3. Best work gossip/stories? The only thing close to gossip in my office is that one co-worker has two kids by two different guys, and she's not married to or dating either of them. Lame, I know. I work for Mormons. My material is limited. :P
4. Any secrets you're just DYING to tell someone, but you can't IRL? Well, every time MIL hints at the fact that I might be pregnant, I really want to just blurt out that I'm on BC. But I'm pretty sure that might shatter her world. So I let her keep hoping as I calculate in my head my next period.

AZ, I feel like a BC conversation with a MIL (or FMIL for me) would be really awkward. heh.
Your story about your dad reminded me of a really bad fight I had with my dad. He picked me up from my 16 hour work day at our state fair (I was living at home between summers at college) and started complaining to me about my stuff that I was packing to move for school again. I wanted help or something (can't remember the specifics) and was super tired so I got really cranky FAST. I SLAMMED the car door shut when I got home and dragged all my stuff out of my room by myself and was just SUPER pissed off while doing it. I wish I could remember why I calmed down but I remember feeling like an *** once I did.
I'm going to reply here instead of there for no reason other than this thread is more active.
You've posted pictures, yes, (you've posted e-pics, right?) but people don't remember pictures posted just in a post and then deleted later. Sig pics and avatars make you memorable.
And also, I don't want to play the "you haven't posted enough" card. But you have like 600 posts. It takes a while to build relationships to the point that you're memorable and people know something about you, especially over the internet.
There have been plenty of AEs and trolls who came in all normal and then went BSC later or totally surprised people when they were outed (PrincessKitty comes to mind). It's not unprecedented.
1) lol Ive gotten into a lot. Biggest would probably be with my shithead cousin - she is 1 year younger than me. When we were about 14 I "stole" a guy she liked, he didnt like her and he was interested in me and we didnt even DO anything but she held it against me. She spent the rest of highschool until I was 17 trying to steal my boyfriends to retaliate. My aunt gave her a gift card for a store in the mall for christmas, and I happened to work there - she came in and started flipping out because you couldnt buy anything in the store for the vallue of the card and I told her to leave because it was embarassing me where I worked and we stopped talking. We didnt talk for a number of years. I tried reconnecting with her when I found out she was engaged and found out she was telling family about how I was "snooping" and causing shiit on the internet (I added her on fb and said hi once...) so we stopped talking again. I found out through my mom around the time that my grandmother died that my cousin had been hanging around my grandmother when she was in the hopsital and talked her into signing her retirement cheques over to her! My mom reversed it (she had access to that type of thing) and when she told me what my cousin did I sorta didnt hesitate to tell our entire family what she did. Needless to say, hardly anyone talks to her now. Serves her right.
I dont feel like answering the other ones, this answer took too long to write.
The funny thing is, she and I have totally had conversations about menopause and menstrual cycles and stuff.
I'm just not ready for her to know we're actively trying to avoid pregnancy for a couple years.

I posted pictures last week in the duckface thread. And they have not been deleted.
Yeah, my post count is low, but does having a low post count = troll?
It's not like I'm one of the crazies that rolls up in here and is all "ZOMG my MOH is pregly she is trying to steal my day!"
Sorry, but not everyone who looked at / posted in that thread, is going to remember you posting pics.
Also, posting pics doesn't necessarily prove anything. I'm not saying that you're a troll, but pics don't mean you're legit. You are taking this way too seriously.
Exactly. Who was the poster we had last year who posted pictures and was a normal poster for a while, then someone else came in and 'stole her pictures' and it was 'her H's ex GF?'. We had no effing clue what was going on.
That was some fantastically crazy shiit.
I know. I was desperately trying to catch up with it at work for the next three days. It was very difficult. Haha.
I don't understand how people have time for AEs like that.
Random thought: are these shoes ugly or cute?

I can't decide if the sparkles are cute or tacky.
I think those are cute!
