Was it the "absolutely" the "no" or the "judgment" that tripped you up?
Amen. And I agree about clothes, heck some things that 10yo girls wear make me shake my head sometimes.
Me too. And I seriously question their parents judgement.
Sometimes I wonder if their parents know how they're dressing. I've heard of kids wearing one outfit leaving home and changing at school.
I would do that in high school. Change in the back of the bus. But I don't remember it being that extreme. I had a catsuit that I would wear under ripped jeans (oh, the 90's!). My mom hated that catsuit. LOL
As well she should have. Really, a catsuit?! I think we all need to see pictures.
I don't think I have any. It was long-sleeved and flowered and zipped up the back. The cloth would show through the rips in the jeans. I thought I was pretty awesome in that. Wish I had the body I had then.
ETA: I feel like I should add this from Wikipedia: A catsuit is a close-fitting one-piece garment that covers the torso and the legs, and frequently the arms.[1] They are usually made from stretchable material, such as lycra, chiffon, spandex.
How did you use the restroom while wearing this thing?! This is why women go to restroom in pairs.
Well, you didn't wait until the last minute, that's for sure!
I'm all about the jumpsuits right now and to pee, you have to undress to the waist and kind of sling it over one arm...let's just say I won't be wearing them to any festivals this year with any kind of port-o-potties because they are exceedingly difficult to keep off the floor.
Also, on the clothing note, I grew up in that part of the 90s where crop tops AND low-rise jeans were in style at the same time, so I'm just relieved that at least the trend now seems to be high-rise bottoms with the crop tops so you only see the upper half of the stomach. Way cuter.
I remember how bad I wanted a pair of low rise Levi's when their "belly button" commercials came out. Remember those?
Definitely! I also had a pair of super-low-rise jeans that had a LACE UP fly instead of a zipper or buttons...klassy klassy klassy. Looking back I cannot believe my mother let me out of the house in them as I think you could see my hipbones above the waistband. I definitely wore those to school though...
I had a pair of pants like that too. LOVED them. Christina Aguilera wore pants in a couple videos that laced up on the hips, and I wanted a pair so bad!
ETA: Although the fashion may be different, I suppose teenage girls are the same lol.
Right? I see teens around and I'm mostly just relieved that there aren't visible g-strings like when I was their age. The leggings and crop tops are not nearly as offensive or revealing, thankfully. And I love that lots of very loose, flowy tops and dresses are trendy now. Way better than those painted-on ultra low-rise jeans and tube tops I loved...not to mention the platforms and huge wedge heels. I had a pair of six-inch wedge sandals that laced up my calves too about fifteen years ago...eesh. Ooh, and the huge chunky highlights on the flatironed hair.
I'm not even 30 yet so it's a little early for pearl-clutching but I seriously think teenagers today don't look nearly as, uh, trashy as my high school classmates did.

Unless I have a huge dinner, I'm going to have a hard time hitting my calorie goal today. I'm just not feeling like eating. I just want to lie down under a blanket and not be working. I will force myself to walk the treadmill at lunch so at least I can get some kind of physical movement today.
side note, does anyone have any experience with Anthropologie? I found the CUTEST swimsuit on there yesterday but I didn't want to fork over the money if it's not good quality or has a crap return policy, etc.
What do you think? Now, I won't look anywhere close to what she looks like, but I think it's sexy pinuppy but still super modest and conservative.
It's a great suit and anytime I don't buy something I really want I regret it and spend $ on something I will always consider inferior. Go for it. I bought one dress at Anthropologie and it was well made and unique. Totally worth it.
I don't know anything about their return policy, but Anthropologie is known for good quality.0 -
Is it weird that I try to save earthworms trapped on the pavement of the green way I use? Fortunately only one person has seen me since its quiet out here.
Nope, I save them too.
I actually saved some from a parking lot when I was going in for my MRI a few weeks ago. It was hard to save them without bending my knees too much. One thanked me by sliming me. I just felt bad because they were going to be run over by cars otherwise. 0 -

Oh ya, I forgot about that... I wasn't one to have my underwear hanging out, but there were lots of girls out like that. I guess I can no longer talk about "kids these days" when it comes to fashion choices

Also I haven't seen @Susieq_1994 around for a bit. Did she say she was going to be away and I'm forgetting? Hope she's okay!
Aww, thanks for remembering me! I'm reading (always, always reading. I'll never let myself fall behind!) but not really posting today because I'm really upset and stressed out about a situation going on with my in-laws right now that I'd rather not go into. I can't seem to think or focus on anything else EXCEPT the stupid situation, and so I don't have anything else to talk about, really.
Editing to add: Plus, as a Muslim, I don't really have any trashy-clothes-in-high-school stories.
The worst thing I ever did was take off my scarf and hide it in my bag on the first day my mom insisted I wear it (I was twelve at the time) because it was a non-Muslim high school and I was worried that people would make fun of me since I hadn't been wearing one up until then... 0 -
@peleroja I was finally able to see the wedding pictures from my tablet! Beautiful!0

I remember girls used to pull their thong up on purpose so it was showing and the Head Teacher called a girls assembly in school to stop it from happening.
Ps. When I'm on this board I find myself constantly questioning if I should Americanize words cos a lot of you are from there. I've thought this about Mum/Mom, sunbeds/tanning beds, Head teacher/Principal, bum/butt, *kitten*/*kitten* and I'm sure there's more...

I tried to do that once. My dad knew. To this day I have no idea how he knew. I wasn't even wearing anything that bad, I just wasn't allowed to wear shorts to school period, no matter the length. I swear he left work to bust me.
That made me laugh. Busted for wearing shorts. You hussy!
I know right! My dad was really serious haha.0 -

@xMrBunglex I remember this confession. I remember that I REALLY wanted donuts after reading it too.
Still, even after 700+ pages, my favorite confession was one that a lady was worried that it wouldn't be too long before her husband used her excess tummy flab for a blanket. I still laugh every time I think about that.
How did I miss that? I don't remember that post.
I don't remember that either! My favorite is still @IAmTheGlue pine cone diet! Still makes me chuckle!0 -
So I have that kid (who is 7, mind you) who had diarrhea all over the pool during his swim lesson. I want to hide in a little hole and seriously I need a drink, even though I'm already 400 calories over maintenance and I don't even drink...0

I love whipped peanut butter.but when I buy it I litterly eat the entire container in one day that's pathetic I know0 -

Yep, same here. I also had a ton of jeans that had zippers at the ankle. Big time saver, since I housed all my jeans otherwise.
I inadvertently showed thong any time I squatted at work in the late 90's, it wasn't on purpose!! The rise of your jeans can only be so low before stuff starts showing.0 -

Oh no! (Hugs!) Even though I'm pretty sure you were one of the ones that didn't like that sort of thing.0 -
I have to confess I don't own a single thong/g-string. I don't find them comfortable at all. To be fair I think I need to go shopping for some sexier underwear. Mine are all polka dots and boy shorts

I got an iPhone upgrade, and not only does my new headphone jack work (*jumping for joy*) but it counts the miles you've walked! I'm sure it overestimates but that's pretty cool. I might be walking a lot more thanks to this combination.0

Here are pictures of my fur babies. I am WAY behind on this, but I wanted to join in on the sharing party.
This is Owen. I fear he's not to return. It's been over 3 weeks now and haven't seen him. That makes me sad because he was my baby boy.
This is Lucy and Otis. Lucy is the big (for her breed, she's actually on the small side) Staffy, and Otis is the little one in the background.
They are all so cute! I'm keeping my fingers crossed that Owen magically returns. Maybe he's just out enjoying nice spring weather? Also, I really want to give Lucy a hug.0 -

That reminds me of thong bikinis.. they are the worst! I've never really cared about trying to look good in my underwear. Comfort all the way! Saying that I've never owned a proper pair of Bridget Jones knickers either haha0 -

I also never order ribs. I hate getting my hands dirty, even if it's because of delicious ribs.
I've never been a fan of spaghetti. I mean it's ok but def not something I would ever order when dining out. Maybe I haven't had GOOD spaghetti. But then again, I am not a saucy guy so I tend to like more noodle than sauce. And a noodle is just a noodle, correct?
I crush ribs without second thought. I do however go through a TON of wet naps cuz I hate that sticky feeling on my hands and face.
What??? Pretty sure your profile pic says otherwise! Haha. Those scrawny arms in the picture make me laugh every time.
LMAO touché... I am also not a fan of mayo. Stupid skinny arm child proof tops (They ARE child proof, right?)
Aren't all jars?? I used to have this small rubber gripper thing that I used constantly to open jars. It mysteriously disappeared from my kitchen. I didn't lose it. Husband is retired and spends way more time in the kitchen than I do, so naturally I blamed him. I throw a new temper tantrum now every time I cannot open a jar and my gripper is no where to be found. Never can remember to buy another one at the store! Simple solution, but temper tantrums are much more fun.
Just tap/bang the edge of the jar (the metal part) all the way around on the countertop and the jar will open easily. It breaks the seal so it's suddenly really easy. It saved my life as a bartender constantly with the pickled asparagus/green beans and olive jars because I'm a shrimpy little girl with weak everything.
You can also use the tip of a butter knife or spoon just under the lid..you'll actually hear the seal pop/air let out. Works great!
What she said! My daddy made sure I didn't need no man.
Agreed, however, *I* am the one that made sure I don't need a man to do things for me! Hence, the temper tantrums and resorting to other methods. I refuse to ask my husband to do it. I'll figure it out myself, thankyouverymuch!
It was definitely me, but my daddy instilled it in me, too.
He used to tell my sister and I to get educated, get a career and never rely on a man to take care of us.
I took it a step further. I never ask for help with anything. Ever.
Moving furniture? No thanks, I can do it myself.
Opening a jar? Yeah, right, I got this.
Yup! This morning, I installed a new handle on a toilet, built a bookcase, and put a new doorknob set on a closet door like a boss. Boo-yah.
(Okay, granted, none of that was particularly difficult but my brother doesn't know how to do any of it )
I am quite adept in changing faucets, fixing under sink plumbing, installing dishwashers,and replacing all the inside guts of toilets (including the gasket between the tank and bowl. The only thing I haven't changed is the toilet itself.
That is on my "to do" list. Last night was my only kid free night for 16 days. So what did I do? Paint my living room. It went from mustard yellow that my ex picked out a few years ago to a swiss coffee (an off white). It makes the room much nicer!!0 -

We've talked about that before! I love when y'all don't Americanize words!! It's so fun learning about other cultures and people. Plus I like when the British people do it so I can test my knowledge and if I don't know I always get s kick out of asking my boyfriend what the word means 0 -

I have a good mix of everything depending on what I'm wearing that day is how I decide my under garments of choice. I do love to call thongs butt floss- always get a kick out of that tehe I know I'm so mature 0 -
So I am on holiday next week, and I'm not sure I will have access to Wi-Fi. I am sad about possibly losing my streak (130 days today!). Also, please don't forget about me in the next week!
Have a nice time. Please carry water with you all the time. Phoenix area is where you are heading if I remembered correctly. Summer has just finally arrived. I read all too often about fit visitors not having enough water on what they thought would be a short hike and then dying. Not to be morbid but it regularly happens and I saw a story in today's news where a woman collapsed on a trail I hike. Because the humidity is low you don't realize how much you are actually sweating. So have a great time and drink water and come back all healthy to tell us about your holiday. 0 -
After my last post I've realised that I visit this thread a lot and only chime in when it comes to silly topics like underwear haha.. but I am so much more invested and have followed this thread since the very beginning so I thought I'd contribute properly!
@ShibaEars Have an amazing holiday!
@peleroja Congrats on the wedding you looked beautiful.
@Susieq_1994 I hate that you have such low self esteem. You seem like a great person and your kitty is cute! Must've been so hard to give her up
@MoHouson I really hope Owen turns up! I've had cats go missing in the past too and it's such an agonizing experience. Got my fingers crossed for you.
@Francl27 You're one of my favourite posters in this thread. I love how honest you are and I never thought I'd find someone who loves dessert as much as me haha
@KylerJaye I've seen Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind too but I always imagine you look exactly like your avatar!
@BZAH10 You are my most favourite person in this thread. I love how supportive you are of everyone!
@xMrBunglex Your transformation is amazing. Well done!
@Tubbs216 Congrats to you and your son!
Okay now I can go back to lurking and commenting on trivial things aha
@LBuehrle8 I definitely won't modify my words in future then aha 0 -
Confession:
I was out of coffee this morning. I had not cleaned out my french press from yesterday morning. I added more hot water. It was horrible and tepid and gross. I drank it anyway.0 -
Thanks @noaddedsugarx I look forward to all your new (to me) vocabulary!!0
