That's all there is to it.

That facial expression is pure killer. Total Blue Steel. Like something straight out of Zoolander.

Hey, Charles Bailey2, I honestly don't get the appeal of this blonde girl you're talking about—she’s just not my type at all. I mean, do you really think she needs to be a knockout for me to care?

Hold on a second. Let’s step away from talking about this specific woman for a moment.

I mean, if you were actually out there in the real world and saw a girl who looked like that, do you really think you’d even bother noticing any of these so-called experts first? I'm talking about how things actually play out in person.

Does it even matter? She made her money without ever having to pick up a shovel or work some grueling nine-to-five just to prove herself. Honestly, I can't even bring myself to give her a "you go girl" because, frankly, it just rubs me the wrong way. But at the same time, I’m not going to sit here and deny that she's an incredibly attractive woman.

It really makes me wonder, though—what kind of guys are you all actually dating? If this is what the legal system looks like in this country, maybe I should just stay inside and avoid the world altogether. 🤣

For women who basically define their entire existence by how they look and how much attention they get, getting MOGGED like this is straight-up suicide fuel.

Well, actually, maybe not quite. I mean, there’s no denying that being a blonde definitely opened doors for her in life, and I wouldn't be surprised if she leans into that advantage every now and then.

I was out last night—sounds like a setup for a joke, honestly—hanging out with an Italian woman, a Swede, and this British lady who used to live in Qatar. And man, let me tell you, this brunette in the group was an absolute bombshell. The British woman was literally like, "You know, someone could probably get arrested just for looking at her, but honestly? If I had a body like that, I'd be walking around naked in public every single day."

So, whether she got MOGGED or not, whether people liked her style or not, that brunette absolutely crushed it. She’s going to make a killing, and she'll have plenty of cash to wipe away any tears caused by getting MOGGED by some blonde. 🤣

Man, I have to say, that blonde girl is absolutely stunning 😍

Ronald Lopez10 said:The fact that I can't even get an epidural at the hospital here in my own city.

I honestly don't know how much more of my monthly tax dollars I can hand over to a system that fails to provide basic, consistent standards of care across every single facility when it actually matters.😠

I am just so incredibly fed up with this country. Truly. Once I deliver this baby, I’m out—you all can deal with this mess without me.

Do you really have to be at that specific hospital in that particular city, though?

Rebecca White said:Man, reminds me of this one time at a local festival. This old lady starts tearing into a pregnant woman like that, acting all tough, but then the woman's mother-in-law—who happened to be the old lady's next-door neighbor—totally shuts her down. She just reminded her that after seven pregnancies, she only actually made it to full term twice. After that, the lady went dead silent about her "wise" advice.

🙏
Look, I am seriously not being lazy here. My plan is to keep working, at least part-time, through the end. I have a toddler running around the house, so there's no way in hell I can juggle four things at once even if I wanted to.

My first pregnancy was honestly a total breeze, but this second one? It's been pretty miserable. I am counting down the days until my due date. I won't go on a whole rant about every single discomfort, because at the end of the day, both the doctor and I say we're healthy, so we're just pushing through.

But honestly, I am just so over this "blissful" vibe people expect, especially those absolute heroines who feel the need to shove their perfect, glowing physiques in our faces while the rest of us exhausted, feeling-wrecked pregnant women are just trying to survive.

What a complete load of garbage 🤣 did you even bother telling her that you’ve never once cut in line, especially not right in front of a pregnant woman?

cosmicpanther71 said:I went in for blood work this morning, and a pregnant woman arrived to take her glucose test.
She walked up to the counter with this ice-cold attitude and just asked, "I'm pregnant, do I get priority?" The clerk froze, and the rest of the patients were just stunned.
I suppose I should give her credit, though—she’s certainly given me some inspiration for how to skip the line next time.😉

Look, I do that kind of thing all the time. 🤷 If there’s an opportunity to jump ahead because I have an advantage, I’m taking it. Between dealing with nausea on an empty stomach and the fact that I really don't want to be breathing in everyone else's germs—especially since I can't take about 95% of standard medications—it's just practical. Plus, being able to skip the wait means I don't have to burn through my sick leave at work.

If the option is there, I'm going for it. 😳

Arthur Kim74 said:So, I’ve started noticing my stomach sticking out a bit more lately, which honestly feels like an open invitation for people to start poking at it...
And truth be told, I’ve never been much of a fan of being touched by people I'm not close with, let alone being touched around my midsection.
I really just don't want anyone doing that to me.

I’ve never been much of a physical person, you know? I’ve always been pretty protective of my personal space, but it feels even more intense now. I actually live in Italy right now, and man, it is tough. People here just wave their hands around and poke at you like they've never seen a person before. 😬 They just reach out and grab at you like there's no tomorrow.

Even today, three different people reached out and poked my stomach—I recognize them from around the neighborhood, but I don't even know their names. My face was basically like:



On a different note, I honestly don't mind if people view me as being "disabled" or limited right now, because pregnancy is its own entirely different beast, and it’s great if someone still has the energy they used to have—because I definitely don't. I’m doing very little at home lately since I don't get back from work until seven in the evening, so I try to at least get some rest once I'm through the door.

Look, labor hurts. It hurts like hell. Seriously. If you look at all those other threads about pregnancy, it seems like every single woman is complaining about how horrific their labor was—but I disagree. Yeah, it hurts, but it’s a natural physiological pain. I get the feeling that some of those older women who go around scaring new moms about birth and everything that follows are just doing it to boost their own egos. Here’s my experience: right after I gave birth, I felt like I could handle anything in the world, provided they just let me sleep for a few hours. Once the little one started nursing, he actually began sleeping through the night by ten days old, and his weight gain was better than great. Honestly, my postpartum period felt like a long summer vacation. It isn't as terrible as people make it out to be. Truly. If it were as bad as the horror stories suggest, nobody would ever decide to have a second, third, or fourth child...

I mean, honestly, it’s just common sense at this point... It's like the old saying about the apple and the tree, you know?

On a completely different note, I have to vent for a second because it’s driving me absolutely crazy—the way random strangers feel entitled to just reach out and touch my stomach the moment they realize I'm pregnant.

Scott Morris3, even if you ended up looking like a total wreck, you'd still be a billion times more beautiful than that bitter old hag.

Are you guys still hanging around here? 🙂

It looks like Richard Morris43 has himself a lawyer now 👍

Steven Reed said:miusovo Blento 😲
Well, I'm saving up for their wedding—obviously. The whole town needs to know when Steven Reed's girls are tying the knot: proud mother of two:

Alright, you've officially sold me. Send over your best offer to my inbox. 😁

Steven Reed said:And what about keeping an eye on the little one??? 🙂
She went out on April 11th—and yet, here she is, sleeping in her own room 😍

I sent mine off to Russia :ŽMK:

@FF, if you track down those posters on sale, let me know 🙂

😍
congratulations !!!!
I was actually starting to think about suggesting a sitter for Minimija.

But I see you're being pretty frugal even with your own kid. Honestly, if you're this stingy now, I can only imagine how much you'll be pinching pennies at the wedding down the road ☕

😬

Samuel Ross60 said:Well, it looks like my kid is heading straight to the auction block!!

Go ahead and present yourselves; I want to see which one of you actually deserves to take my child home!
It’s a girl, by the way.

~~~Penny positive~~~

In my house, she'll definitely have her own room 😳

Samuel Ross60, I honestly just sat here and cried my eyes out 🤣

anasib, 👋 are you actually planning on going out more often? because there's a massive difference between being a troll and actually reading some "gentle parenting" book and deciding that every single little deviation from the rules is basically a total catastrophe. 🤣

redgardener5 said:Maybe try sending it without a return address? 🤔

Honestly, it’s not even about sleep schedules or breastfeeding or what kind of diapers you use—it’s all about attitude. If you don't agree with how someone else does things, then maybe you shouldn't have kids in the first place, right? I'd heard people talk about "pregnancy brain," but man, I had no idea just how extreme that can actually get 😲

And seriously, that whole "I would never, ever..." line always comes back to haunt you like a boomerang 😍

Exactly. 😉

Chloe Hayes55 said:I would happily trade being a parent if it meant my kid slept through the night in their own room and woke up actually happy.🥳

I mean, what are you even talking about? I bet they aren't actually sleeping; they're probably up half the night pacing the floor, and I can't even hear them from the other room.🙂
