ready blew my new years resolution. bit of a rant

Just stay here and you'll be fine.

I blew my resolution too, about 14 hours into the New Year.

Meh.

I don't get why it's any of your business if she wants to have a kid or not...

As for the dog thing, yea...that's bad.

I might just report tge dog lady.

Baby lady sounds a bit ditzy, but harmless. Hopefully she wises up, though. She has no idea what she's doing.

16 year old pregnant girls are worshiped? Since when, I'm 21 with 2 kids an I certainly never got worshipped lol. That lady that was going to put her dog in the dishwasher is stupid, could she have been joking?

At least you admit it.
What I hate are those who bee bop through life as though all is well when they're attitude is toxic.
Progress is facing our faults head on, gathering energy and trying to become better people.
Our great victory as individuals lies not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall.
RISE UP!
All Is Possible :flowerforyou:

you lasted longer than i would have!

on that note, try not to be judgemental as you never know the place the other person is coming from.

i had an intern in my team who reported into me for the past 6 months. this poor girl was extremely closeted, had no social skills and wasnt very bright. i would go home complaining about her but never treated her badly - although i often wanted to shout and scream at the stupid things she'd say or do.

her last day was just before xmas, and this girl brought me a letter from her father. in it, he thanked for my all that i had done for his daughter (sh's 27) as he said that no one in her life had ever tried to help her the way i did. i actually teared up and felt so ashamed for the thoughts i used to have in my head!

you never know the role you could play in someone elses life

I think I heard the wrong part of the conversation, but it was about how one of them needed to give her dog a bath, didn't want it in the tub, too cold outside, was thinking why not put it in the dishwasher. Don't want to eavesdrops or interrupt, trying to be cup half full, and then they ask me what I think of the subject. Turns out, it was what I heard. She wanted to put her dog, a Pomeranian, into her dish washer, for 10 minutes. I go on telling why its a bad idea, it will kill the dog, she could be arrested for cruelty, which isn't a bad idea if she thinks that ok. Her reply was that she could always get another one.

Wow, just wow. I REALLY hope she was joking and not serious. Otherwise, I'd keep an eye out for a dog change in the future and report her if necessary.

OMG are these people for real? They all sound like idiots especially the dog lady....By the way in my humble opinion glass 1/2 full doesn't mean you have to put up with stupidity its more an attitude of how you look at things and deal with things personally..its focusing on the good....yeah it can involve saying postivie things to others but sometimes you just can't fix stupid.

I was 17 when I got pregnant 16 when I got with my boyfriend 18 when we moved in together now nearly 22 were still head over heels and I'm just as good as any super mum out there my daughter is a very clever little girl working at a stage nearly 2 years older than her shes always clean and in very nice clothes . She is very polite towards anybody she meets and my life is perfect my home is a home my child has millions of toys an the love for her of me an my partner and other family beers an family friends is amazing she is a very lucky little girl. I didn't work I was in college my partner only just got a job and I was told by lodes of people to abort my baby I wouldn't be able to cope I'm running my life ect but to be honest getting pregnant was the best thing I have ever ever ever done in my life and I can't wait to have another in the next 2 years ..... Sorry about the life story but just because your pregnancy an life didnt go to plan dosant mean the OP won't either you should of said go right ahead an ask her again in a years time when she's up with night feeds an is dressing in all cheap clothes to make sure her baby has food an clothes an heating it coulda workd out for her it coulda bit her on her *kitten* an left her a single mum at 20 with no money an her mum looking after the child ...... Btw this isant saying your a bad mum in anyway or form I also got POst natal depression an I had it for over a year put so much weight on an that's why I'm here now

After that conversation, it's back to work. I'm trying not to replay it in my head, but cant help it. then, I overhear some other ladies talking. I think I heard the wrong part of the conversation, but it was about how one of them needed to give her dog a bath, didn't want it in the tub, too cold outside, was thinking why not put it in the dishwasher. Don't want to eavesdrops or interrupt, trying to be cup half full, and then they ask me what I think of the subject. Turns out, it was what I heard. She wanted to put her dog, a Pomeranian, into her dish washer, for 10 minutes. I go on telling why its a bad idea, it will kill the dog, she could be arrested for cruelty, which isn't a bad idea if she thinks that ok. Her reply was that she could always get another one.

WDAFUQ???????

She MUST have been joking!! People are NOT that stupid/cruel/soulless. Just no. no.

She called me a stupid fat bitc# and that was the end of my resolution. I don't think I can have a positive perspective when I live in a world where pregnant 16 year olds are worshiped, it's awesome to test 32 men to see if someone can find the father to their child, and where people think it's swell to wash their dogs in a dishwasher. Think I'm going to stick with the weight loss.

I have the answer for you - Puppies!

Puppies by definition will pee on the floor, chew your shoes, etc. You do not get mad at them or stressed...they can't help it, they are just being a puppy. Sounds like you have a few puppies in your world

I'd have a field day if I worked at your place :laugh:

This year, I wanted to have a more positive outlook on life. Be a cup half full type of person. I started talking with some women at work, eating lunch, and having a nice time. even talked to someone at the gym. but tonight... oh dear. one girl at work, she is very nice and a hard worker, but I really just want to shake some sense into her. she just turned 20, her boyfriends 18, fresh outta high school, and she want's to have a baby next year. Far be it from me to tell anyone what to do, but myself and a few others were telling her about our pregnancies. I got pregnant at 20. It was complicated and hard, and I was a hormonal war zone for at least a year. We weren't telling her this to scare her, just to know its not going to be a fairy tale. I asked her if she was going to get married first. Just curious, and I found by watching my sister (3 1/2 yrs older, been pregnant 11 times by 6 different guys) that marriage is a lot more stable than boyfriend and girlfriend. Could totally just be me on that. So, after that topic, she asked me if I dyed my hair again. Said no, it just faded. looked confused. I gave the example of when you wash a new pair of jeans, they're going to fade. She let me know that it can't be goon if I'm putting the same dye they use for jeans in my hair. I laughed, and she asked if it was permanent. I said no, no color is really permanent, not even black. (I've been dying my hair for 12 years, black lasted about 3 years for me.) I have blonde hair and she has black. she says her hair color is permanent, and I explained to her the difference between fake, unnatural, dyed hair, and natural what you're born with hair. Keep in mind this is a serious conversation.

I am fairly cynical, sarcastic, and have a negative outlook on life. Always expect the worst to be pleasantly surprised.
My resolution is shattering.

After that conversation, it's back to work. I'm trying not to replay it in my head, but cant help it. then, I overhear some other ladies talking. I think I heard the wrong part of the conversation, but it was about how one of them needed to give her dog a bath, didn't want it in the tub, too cold outside, was thinking why not put it in the dishwasher.

Bye bye resolution.

A little voice in me said, "Nice job, you made it about 12 hours."

I logged out of my station, turned to her, and said. "I'm sorry, but I need to leave. Right now, I would rather face an army of chainsaw wielding zombies riding on 6 foot flying spiders, than be here. I need to go and try to salvage some of the IQ points I have lost."

She called me a stupid fat bitc# and that was the end of my resolution. I don't think I can have a positive perspective when I live in a world where pregnant 16 year olds are worshiped, it's awesome to test 32 men to see if someone can find the father to their child, and where people think it's swell to wash their dogs in a dishwasher.

I think we might be made for one another haha

I'd just like to point out that nowhere in that whole first post did you admit to anything that violated your new years resolution to "have a more positive outlook on life" ... Take comfort in the fact that you're far superior, regarding intelligence, to them. & if sarcasm is the lowest form of whit, why is it so much fcuking fun?

I have a positive outlook on life, more specifically MY life... Anybody else's can go shove it for all I care, besides those I care about, obviously. And the good people on here such as yourself. It's difficult to have a positive outlook on life itself when you take the bigger things into account, like the fact that the world is a corrupt *kitten* pit. I try not to plague my thoughts with those things though & focus on the things that affect me, like being fat.

If she wants to put her dog in the dishwasher, I'm not advocating it & strongly disagree that anybody can genuinely be THAT stupid, but let her do it... If you can tear a shred of positivity from something as disgusting as dishwashering your own dog (joking at her expense, which I wouldn't normally promote, but in this case she deserves it), you've got a great gift haha Enjoy YOUR life as best you can, laugh at the people who are too stupid to realise that vaginas should have more things put IN them, than coming OUT of them... The aforementioned penis to baby ratio is really odd, it might even be worth some sort of record (no offence to your sister, I'm sure she's a lovely girl!). And learn to look for the good in everything...

I HATE the manager at the place I work, to the point where I wish they'd have some sort of freak accident every morning (I only have to spend a couple of hours with them in the morning before I leave to go do my job, that's how much of a cockbag they are) so that I could witness them suffer and be unable to work, and I'm not a sadistic person! I just made the exception as it's the only way I could bare to be near/speak to them. They're leaving in 2 days though so I'm a happy chappy! All good things come to those who wait & all that!

I like the hair dye example, those are the sort of people you can wind up forever, constantly, every day & they'll never even notice. Again, take pleasure from the fact that your brain WORKS and theirs doesn't. I think at one point it used to be "the fashion" (I hate that phrase) to be stupid... There was a girl at my school a few years back (I don't still go, that'd be a little weird) who used to deny knowing anything, you could ask her the simplest of questions to which she'd always reply "I don't knowwwww..." in the most annoying tone of voice. Then she'd go write a paper on Chaucer or Shakespeare for her English Lit class & get a B. The genuine stupid ones are easily spotted if you watch them for a little while...

If you can't have a "positive perspective when {you} live in a world where pregnant 16 year olds are worshiped", don't. But do yourself the courtesy to have a positive perspective on your own life and your ability to make it as great as you can You're already doing that by focusing on your weight loss Don't make these people your life, even if they have to be a PART of it.

This is me getting all philosophical, I've learnt by experience though. I think I've said what I needed to say Congratulations if you got this far, without skipping 9 paragraphs lol You can have a shot on me.

I hate starting sentences with "and" or "but" but I couldn't be bothered to avoid it. You have my sincerest apologies

And may your cup be forever half to fully full.

To the OP-how did your sister get pregnant so many times?
