I have not read the posts, however

[monkeybug]

OK I have read all of the posts in this thread (because I'm a sucker for the witty, and you all are WITTEEEE!)
I want to make sure that I am understanding this correctly. Your saying I can read the thread, and a few replies and then post what I would like to post over there, over here. But what happens when someone from "there" comes here? Aren't they going to bring all the "read all the posts" drama over with them??? I think the dramatical no likey the funny most of the time, it offends them. I'm afraid I'm going to get a double flaming! A flaming for posting with out reading ALL the replies, and then another one for posting on a thread that pokes fun the "read before you post" nazi's!!!
People who know everything that has ever happened on the General Hospital frighten me a little. I'm thinking they carry flame throwers in their fanny packs!

 

[Briarmom]

I believe the 'Right to Hang Laundry' thread will evolve into people saying things like:

'I don't need to see your size XXXXXXXL granny panties flapping in the breeze'

and

'I don't want to see your thong underwear while I'm taking my kids to school'

Which will then spiral into a fight about weight.

Should anyone dare come into this thread and 'flame' you, Legalsea's revenge against them will be swift and dramatic. Sorta like in Monty Python and the Holy Grail, with the Frenchmen! I shall, at the least, create wind in their direction!

tag fairy!!!

Oh no! THAT will just turn into a 10 page thread of "Damn you Tag Fairy!" and "He's a saint" and "No he's a grumpy old man" and "I've been here ten years you peon" etc etc

Love it!

I predict the right to hang laundry debate will soon morph into a quesiton of how often people wash towels. This will lead to the thread splitting into two camps:
those who live in squalor and are an abomination to clean citizens everywhere
and
those who willing squandor resources for vainty's sake

there is no middle ground, no believing both sides are valid. You are with the washers (or hangers) or against them I tell ya

no worries--it can just be merged with the other one

I tend to agree. I am surprised that it has stayed so civil, to this point. Laundry, after all, is an emotional subject to some people.

I don't know about it devolving into an argument about weight. However, it is true that more innocent threads have done so in the past (a few years ago one about Johnny Depp did so, if I recall rightly).

 

[Scurvy]

and then another one for posting on a thread that pokes fun the "read before you post" nazi's!!!

Alas, the thread has been Godwinned.

For anyone who wasn't watching, the thread about the Diabetic Nephew and Thanksgiving is now a raging debate about the right to eat peanuts on an airplane. I didn't notice that anyone had posted that yet on this thread, but of course I haven't read all the posts.

Thanks. I went over and looked and you are right. The Peanut Galley does tend to turn up in unexpected places (at least, any thread that remotely touches on allergies).

Seriously? I might have to read that one. How do you go from diabetes and thanksgiving to peanuts and airplanes?

You forgot the 'don't touch my guest towels' towel debate.

I'm pretty sure I posted on that thread.

Originally by monkeybug - - My older brother once pooped in a training potty that was a part of a jc penny's baby display. (he was three) my parents turned to see why a crowd had gathered around the display and why they were laughing and there he was...

This. This had me rolling, tears streaming from my eyes, in laughter. My 4 month old thinks I'm nuts.

I *heart* the hidden disabilities. Yes, the person parked in a handicapped parking space & skipped merrily into the Wal-Mart with their shrieking toddler in tow, but, you never know, the person may have had a hidden disability that only allowed them to skip for a few steps. Bless the person's heart, just that brief skipping required them to get an ECV as soon as they got in the store. You just never know, you know?

Maybe the mean old lady was mean because sitting at McDonalds, eating a cheeseburger, reminded her of her puppy, who once loved cheeseburgers. But, got over-large after eating too many cheeseburgers, so she had to quit giving the poor puppy cheeseburgers. And just sitting there, eating her cheeseburger & seeing that bratty 4 year old eating his, reminded her that she couldn't buy one for her puppy. So, quite understandably, she was mean. Wouldn't you be?

I don't like turkey. Yet, every Thanksgiving, I eat turkey. It's tradition. I do like sweet potato casserole. I don't like mayonnaise. Never have. Never will. My mother leaves out for me an un-mayonnaised portion of whatever she's fixed w/ mayonnaise. My MIL does not. My mother obviously loves me more.

I think, if your DS is 11 years old, you should not bring him into the ladies' room with you.

I don't like listening to screaming, screeching kids - even my own.

I haven't read all the responses but in reply to too many threads to list:

Yes, there will be weather of some sort at WDW on the date of your specific trip.

Yes, someone here HAS stayed at the GF or the BC or WL or whatever resort you're interested in.

No, there are no restaurants that will serve your child only dry, sourdough toast since that's the only food on the face of the earth that said child will consume. Yes, I'm sure there's a fine reason for that but bring your own bread.

WOHMs are better than SAHM's. No, wait, SAHM's are better than WOHM's. Discuss.

I expect the new "Help with Indiana Jones Level 2" thread will turn into a debate regarding making children figure out things on their own vs. mommy's snowflakes getting too stressed over not winning. Oh and don't forget those who think Johnny should be playing outside so he doesn't get too fat.

 

[legalsea]

I am very, very serious about how some people take laundry seriously. I also am a member of the cruise critic message board (about, well, crusing) and every so often a thread will pop up about 'reserving' a washer or sitting on a dryer on a cruise ship, and the thread will simply explode with anger and arguments.

Thusly developing Adult Onset Diabetes (or Type 2 as it's known today) and then calling Grandma and asking her to do something different to her Yams which will then turn into a 'Peanuts on the Plane' debate.

ok, now i see how you get from diabetes to peanuts on a plane. No need to read the whole thread now.

 

[adkkev]

and there will many a MIL thread to digest. I believe one or two have already started.

 

[TriMom]

But when it's cold outside, you will be allowed to wear your peanut shell coat on an airplane while serving candied yams.

I'm hurt Scurvy - you obviously had not read every post in this thread!!!!!
