    haha! along those lines.. people who don't know the difference between 'There', and 'Their'

    Don't forget the the people that confuse 'then' and 'than'. It drives me nuts! My wife does it on purpose just to bug me.

    People who leave long, drawn out voice messages but then become auctioneers when it comes to leaving their phone number at the end of the message. :indifferent:

    People that try to treat our kids like teeny babies. The women in my neighborhood are raising a bunch of future men that will be afraid to ride their bike if it is 'cold' or be touched by water when it's sprinkling! They won't die if the weather touches them!!! Just dress them properly and be smart.

    I agree with this! My sister in law is almost 21 years old and still goes EVERYWHERE with my in laws!! Its really sad actually! She has been babied her entire life and it has made her socially awkward. She doesn't have a single friend and can not make any simple decisions without asking her mom. I fear at 40 years old she will still be living with them.

    All of the trampy 21-year-old girls on the sales team in the office who walk around in their 5-inch platform hooker shoes, teeny tiny mini skirts, and low-cut blouses. For God's sake... there are SO many people needing jobs right now. Do not skank it up in the F*@#$!^ office!

    Your in-laws aren't doing her any favors.

    I have a friend like this. I call her "the little sister I never wanted" because she is so clingy.

    No they really aren't!! My husband has tried to talk to his mom about it but the topic is not even up for discussion with her. She is the youngest of four and my mother in law doesn't want to lose her last child b/c she won't have anyone to mother. I mean seriously what 21 year old girl still has her mother do her hair and makeup?!?!?

    I know I might take some heat for this but I was annoyed recently by a woman that sued a "men's only" club because she was denied membership. Really? Why? She didn't really want to join. Just wanted to make a point.

    Almost went down to Curves and pitched a fit.

    Ugh. Feminism is one thing... that's called just being a ... brat!

    Along this line... people who initiate stupid lawsuits. My boyfriends dad has been waiting for a decision/payout for 10 years. Now... this payout is going to be about what he would have made in TWO years, but he couldn't work during all of this for some reason (supposidly will mess up the case, idk). They're constantly calling us for money and saying how broke they are. He grows... five-leafed plants... in his garage because he claims hes in "so much pain" and simply "can't work" even though he "really wants to". So broke... getting high every day... and spending a month at a time in Daytona Beach. Really? You're a deadbeat and I hate you.

    ... I feel much better now :flowerforyou:

    Hate having to always be G rated on there.

    I denied the requests to anyone under 18 who requested me. I don't care if it hurts their feelings - their parents shouldn't allow them to have a FB Page anyway!

    I third and fourth this!
    Kids do NOT need a freaking FB account. It's exhausting to have to always enforce my own standards regarding the internet with my son.

    Right now as I posted above how it annoys me how the other mothers in my neighborhood treat their boys like babies with diapers- well- they won't let them ride a bike b/c it's 'too cold' to the few blocks to school ..but they WILL let their 10-11 yr old sons go on the internet whenever they want, have an android phone or iphone and text whenever and whoever, and get on youtube? Youtube seems innocuous. Sure if innocuous equals gang fights, interwebz penis sword fighting in the comments section, mashups that make adult commentary on kid oriented media like various cartoons kids watch as a farce, and sexual exhibitions that brush up against being removed DUH.

    And I don't judge you based on that. My son is in fourth grade still- he's only 10. I am not allowing him to do any of that. Period.
