1. I sing Nirvana's (originally the meat puppets) Lake of fire song as "Where do black folks go when they die" instead of "where do bad folks go when they die." It's totally un-PC and not intended to be racist, but it's totally funny to me, every single time I sing along.
2. I was buying a car from someone, the sale price was $1600.00. I paid $600.00 up front and he wrote me a receipt that said "Paid in full" to help me with title and taxes. I didn't pay the other remaining balance, and when he took me to court, I let him rattle on for 20 minutes in front of the judge before pulling the receipt out smiling real big, like the total a-hole i was.
3. A married woman had an affair with me, frequently. She would tell her young son that she was going to see the police officer (me) so that he would say that he saw police in front of her husband instead of mom's secret boyfriend.
4. There was a prize give away at work, I legitimately was drawn to receive one of 60 prizes. I was in the prize coordinator's office while they were there and saw the list of prizes on the desk unbeknownst to that person, made sure I was first in line at the give away, and got the best prize. Unrelated news: my XboxOne gamertag is imageoverload if anyone wants to play.
5. When I was moving from New Jersey to Illinois, I needed a way to get paid without working so I could spend a few months with my mom before I took off and a few months of pay while I looked for a job in Illinois. When my buddy got promoted to be my boss, I was written up for some pretty silly reasons, so when I went to the unemployment hearing, and they saw the ridiculous reasons I was written up for, I was offered my job back, I refused because of the "hostile" work environment.
6. I was so high on ecstasy one night, I was standing on my front porch smoking a cigarette and I decided to take a P, I wasn't expecting the sensation from urinating, it actually made me lose control of my muscles and I fell forward right into my own pee puddle. I still pee outside, ALL THE TIME.
7. I was walking out of the mall one night and I thought I dropped something and when I looked down to pick it up, next to a car there was a wad of cash, $450.00. I picked it up, and kept walking. This was right before Christmas.
8. I was a really fat kid from Age 10-13, I got picked on a lot, and after one brutal day, I was playing in the woods behind my house and I found a toad and killed it. I became worst than my bullies.
I am not sure what to think about some of those. Not judging! The pee puddle one did make me laugh.0 -

Nice thing though is I can have all the different flavors I want and sometimes they actually calm my cravings for sweets. Right now I am smoking white chocolate macadamia nut and omg... sinfully good.
I blame my boyfriend since he smokes one. *sighs* can't win them all I guess haha ;p
I confess I've been really wanting an e-cig. I'm not even a smoker, just socially and not ever a whole cig or cigar ever. Just a puff here and there.
That white chocolate macadamia nut sounds amazing.
Well it's a good thing they always have a choice of 0mg nicotine for people who don't actually smoke, and they usually sell starter packs at a decent price ;p (god I am such a bad influence)

Confession 1: I have learned moderation. I opened this thread on autopilot about 5 pages ago when I was sending out an update, read to the end of that page, and left it until I knew I'd have time to read it all after work.
Confession 2: When I got to this page, the last post was 666, and I refreshed before posting because being first to post after something that anticipated is intimidating

Ahem - I don't do *this*, but very, very similar things with other songs. (shame on me)AgentOrangeJuice wrote: »

This is the singular paragraph, out of the last week of not doing jack s*it at work, that made me bark out a laugh loud enough to get my boss' attention. Good grief, that's funny.AgentOrangeJuice wrote: »6.

Well, I'm glad I didn't miss it! I'd say it was deserving of the 666th post. Those are quite some confessions. I no doubt have a few I'm not exactly proud of, but I'm not brave enough to post them here (or anywhere, for that matter).0

Oh no, you're not. My hubby used to have one (he is what I would call a 'real' smoker) and I loved it. He's trying out nicotine patches now so I'm feeling guilty about bringing up the topic 'cuz I don't want him to give up on that since it seems to have been working.0 -

Firstly, zombie peep avi FTW. Very appropriate.
Secondly...I hope you did something nice for someone else with at least some of that money!
Twice last year I found money. Once was about $40 outside of a Starbucks in March, then $70 on the sidewalk in a pretty richie rich outdoor shopping plaza in like November/early December. I'm of the mindset that found money isn't money I earned so I shouldn't spend it on myself, so I end up finding a good cause to spend it on (and end up spending quite a bit of my own money in the process). The Starbucks money ended up buying a bunch of non-perishable goods for a food drive. The plaza money was spent on 7 cozy hats, 7 sets of heavy duty gloves, and 3 heavy duty winter coats for the homeless.
#6 made me laugh wayyyy more than I should have.0 -
So after hurting myself yesterday trying to "earn" the 800 calorie ice cream I found out from the doctor that I can't run for three months and I need physical therapy for some kind of ruptured tendon. I got so depressed I ate over 1000 calories past my goal. How's that for a kick in the *kitten*?0

I'm not going to bother trying to think up anything special for my 777th post, since anything I put will pale in comparison to these
I pass no judgment, although I am sad about the toad lol.0 -

It took me until age 23 to commit to college; I'm now applying for transfer to complete my bachelor's (est. graduation: June 2018) and will pursue my master's afterwards, though they are unaware. That makes me a bachelor's grad at 28 and a master's grad at 30.
I've also always been the fat kid in my family. The one with the pretty face. The cute nose. "Suck it in, it's good for your core." "You're getting a little chubby around the middle." "Always hold your head up, double-chins are not attractive."
I deleted every family member aside from my mother off of Facebook three months ago and I don't talk to any of them and it has been SO LIBERATING not to be JUDGED all the time.
I'm in this for my health, for my own self-esteem, so I can be a hot mama one day, but honestly .. I can't WAIT until I'm down to 135lbs with my degree in hand so I can tell them all to SUCK IT!
I didn't start community college until I was 21. I just earned my Associate's degree in December.
I'm 33 and still at uni. Finishing this degree then going into nursing so I'll be 40 by the time I finish.

When I read your post yesterday about twisting your ankle I was going to ask you if it was really bad and if it was going to put you out of commission for a while, but I didn't want to be negative. Sorry it turned out to be true! Honestly though, take your time and let it heal. Rushing back before it is healed completely will only make it worse. Hope you have a quick recovery!0 -

I'm sorry. I did this in October, and it totally stalled my efforts for over 4 months (I had alternatives, I just chose to be an *kitten* and whine about not being able to run instead). I hope it heals quickly! 0 -

Some of these were probably tough to type out, huh?
I was a follower when I was a little kid (12 and under). I was shy and awkward and wanted to be liked. If kids that hung out with me wanted to do something, I'd do it because they wanted to hang out with me and if I didn't do what they wanted they wouldn't hang out with me (see previous sentence). When my older cousin decided he wanted to kill a painter turtle we found in the woods, I not only didn't say no even though I didn't want to do it, I kind of helped him. It took me a long time to realize this, but that was one of the most formative moments in my young life. Years later, I made a conscious decision to become my own person and this memory was a huge part of that decision. I've never gotten over the feeling of shame I felt when we stood over that poor dead turtle (even as I type this, my hands are shaking) and I don't think I've ever told that story to anyone else.0 -

I haven't killed anyone or any innocent animals, but I do have some worse things to confess to than most of AOJ's, good thing I am a long way from 666 posts.0 -

Nerd confession: In 2010 I went on a Twilight-themed Alaskan cruise. There were theme nights & parties, and we got autographs & pictures with some of the movies' stars (none of the big stars because of course they backed out right before). I'm generally embarrassed to tell people this, so I tend to leave out the Twilight business if I talk about it. I won't lie though, it was fun and I loved Alaska & would really like to return one day.
I've also been to Forks (the town the story is set in). Twice.0 -

I'm generally embarrassed to tell people this, so I tend to leave out the Twilight business if I talk about it. I won't lie though, it was fun and I loved Alaska & would really like to return one day.
I've also been to Forks (the town the story is set in). Twice.

Tincan, you seem like the kinda guy that has magazine subscriptions, which ones?0 -
Today is finally my last day of making up for a week- long binge last week. Too much stuff to list it all, but here are some of the highlights:
- Day 3: s'mores grahamfuls snack, half a curried turkey salad sandwich, potato salad, a large lemon cheesecake bar, at least a dozen ginger snaps, two spoonfuls of cookie butter, samosas, chicken tikka masala, chicken korma, Indian fried rice, garlic naan, and one of those baked cookie desserts that's in the little pan and topped with ice cream and hot fudge. I literally scraped every last bite of cookie out of the pan too.
- Day 5: despite being almost at my calorie allowance for the day, I decided to have 6 Dove chocolate squares, a handful of Buffalo Wing flavored pretzel pieces, and then go to dinner with my friend. At dinner I ate half a garlic cheese bread appetizer, a salad with lots of ranch, half a loaf of sourdough bread with butter, portions of 3 entrees we shared between the two of us, and then for dessert we shared a chocolate mousse cake and a scoop of ice cream.
BTW, I am less than 10 pounds from my dream weight and so it's kinda astonishing that I can still pack away the food like that. Boyfriend and I are going to Vegas for 5 days next month, and I know another big binge is coming. I'm already eating less calories 4 weeks in advance in preparation.0 -

I KNOW! *hangs head in shame* I'm kind of expecting my friends list to decrease shortly.0 -

It makes me thankful that I'm self-employed, so if anyone is looking over my shoulder if I do read at work, I have way more harrowing issues than job security to worry about.0 -

Asked if he was up to anything fun and he starts babbling about needing a minor procedure done and how "everything will be okay" like he thinks he's dying. Earlier this week he started eating differently to prepare for tomorrow and it clicked..he's getting a colonoscopy. He's in his 50s so it makes sense but he's acting so weird about it. Maybe I'm too open about talking about stuff but holy moley you'd think they were extracting military codes from him.
I guess my confession is I don't understand why people get so weird talking about a basic procedure involving their poopshute.
Well to be fair, my mom's boyfriend ended up septic after one of those... ended up with MSRA in his blood... so it's not always that routine and safe. He survived but had to have IVs for a month...JulieAnneFIU wrote: »So after hurting myself yesterday trying to "earn" the 800 calorie ice cream I found out from the doctor that I can't run for three months and I need physical therapy for some kind of ruptured tendon. I got so depressed I ate over 1000 calories past my goal. How's that for a kick in the *kitten*?
That totally sucks. I'm sorry. I'd seriously cry if it happened to me.

1. I sing Nirvana's (originally the meat puppets) Lake of fire song as "Where do black folks go when they die" instead of "where do bad folks go when they die." It's totally un-PC and not intended to be racist, but it's totally funny to me, every single time I sing along.
2. I was buying a car from someone, the sale price was $1600.00. I paid $600.00 up front and he wrote me a receipt that said "Paid in full" to help me with title and taxes. I didn't pay the other remaining balance, and when he took me to court, I let him rattle on for 20 minutes in front of the judge before pulling the receipt out smiling real big, like the total a-hole i was.
3. A married woman had an affair with me, frequently. She would tell her young son that she was going to see the police officer (me) so that he would say that he saw police in front of her husband instead of mom's secret boyfriend.
4. There was a prize give away at work, I legitimately was drawn to receive one of 60 prizes. I was in the prize coordinator's office while they were there and saw the list of prizes on the desk unbeknownst to that person, made sure I was first in line at the give away, and got the best prize. Unrelated news: my XboxOne gamertag is imageoverload if anyone wants to play.
5. When I was moving from New Jersey to Illinois, I needed a way to get paid without working so I could spend a few months with my mom before I took off and a few months of pay while I looked for a job in Illinois. When my buddy got promoted to be my boss, I was written up for some pretty silly reasons, so when I went to the unemployment hearing, and they saw the ridiculous reasons I was written up for, I was offered my job back, I refused because of the "hostile" work environment.
6. I was so high on ecstasy one night, I was standing on my front porch smoking a cigarette and I decided to take a P, I wasn't expecting the sensation from urinating, it actually made me lose control of my muscles and I fell forward right into my own pee puddle. I still pee outside, ALL THE TIME.
7. I was walking out of the mall one night and I thought I dropped something and when I looked down to pick it up, next to a car there was a wad of cash, $450.00. I picked it up, and kept walking. This was right before Christmas.
8. I was a really fat kid from Age 10-13, I got picked on a lot, and after one brutal day, I was playing in the woods behind my house and I found a toad and killed it. I became worst than my bullies.
Some of these were probably tough to type out, huh?
I was a follower when I was a little kid (12 and under). I was shy and awkward and wanted to be liked. If kids that hung out with me wanted to do something, I'd do it because they wanted to hang out with me and if I didn't do what they wanted they wouldn't hang out with me (see previous sentence). When my older cousin decided he wanted to kill a painter turtle we found in the woods, I not only didn't say no even though I didn't want to do it, I kind of helped him. It took me a long time to realize this, but that was one of the most formative moments in my young life. Years later, I made a conscious decision to become my own person and this memory was a huge part of that decision. I've never gotten over the feeling of shame I felt when we stood over that poor dead turtle (even as I type this, my hands are shaking) and I don't think I've ever told that story to anyone else.
Though I don't personally know you outside of MFP, I cannot, for one second, picture you as shy!

I still am, actually. I force myself to be extroverted because that's who I want to be.0 -

If this makes any sense, I am a shy extrovert. I am shy until I get to know someone, but then, I am the least shy person ever...and sometimes have no filter at all. By definition, though, I am definitely an extrovert, in that I like to be with people. Most people really enjoy their "alone" time, but I don't care if I am ever alone again. Sometimes when I am home alone with my 2yo, I want to wake her from her nap so we can play!0 -
@tincanonastring, I didn't picture you to be shy either. Maybe you're stepping outside your box more and we see something in you, that you don't see yet?0
