I want to be a comedian.

I want to be a makeup lady.

I could handle be filthy rich without guilt.

Whenever I see children on the street being raised by a nanny, I can't help wondering how can the parents afford NOT to be raising their own child???

My thought exactly. Especially when the nanny looks bored or ignores them.

the best sex i have ever had was the 2 times I was cheating on someone (not my current husband)

I think men who like Brazilian waxes are pedophiles (they want hairless little girls to screw)

I feel safer when i talk to people I hardly know. People I know really well know ME too well and it makes me feel trapped

I am really bad with clutter - at my office and at home (but luckily DH is a neat freak so the home part is taken care of).

Some man hit me with a rolled up newspaper on the Metro like 4 years ago to get me to move and I still regret not calling him out and making a big scene, because I'm a human and I deserve respect, like all humans, but I do wish I could let it go because I will randomly think of it sometimes and it boils my blood.

I judge people but try really hard, and succeed usually, especially in the last few years, to treat people well and never try to make people feel bad, even on an anonymous board.

I'm impressed. (Not being sarcastic.) I try hard but fail, especially here.

I'm just a big believer in karma. Plus, when I have put others down (in a subtle way, as women do) it's usually because I'm feeling bad and you know what, it's never made me feel better. Not once. And I'm not talking about calling people out or standing up for yourself, I'm talking about deliberately trying to make someone feel bad or doubt themselves. It makes me so sad about this board, that people do that so often - especially since we are all parents! I mean is that not the great equalizer? No matter what our situation?

I feel really lucky to have a healthy child and a solid marriage, and so I do my best to pay it forward.

I got shoved on the metro recently by a man who was in a hurry to get off the train -- and I was 7 mos pregnant at the time, and obviously so. I called him out on it (said, "don't shove me!") and he said, "then get out of my way, bitch." I said, loudly, as he was stepping off the train, "oh, right, great, so shove the pregnant lady." Which was a lame come-back, but everyone around me was (nearly) as disgusted as I was. It still boils my blood to think of it, and I can't imagine it won't continue to even though I made a scene. Grrr.

This boils me and it didn't even happen to me! What. An. Asshole. You should have tripped him.

What do you feel when the parents ignore the child?

Have you tried it before? There's nothing to do with being a little girl. It's clean, neat and pleasant.
or you don't shave your legs and your underarms?

Come on! This isn't a "What I hate about other moms and dads" thread. Jeez. Focus on something else.

1. The only thing I am truly competitive about is baking.

2. Part of the reason I continue wearing glasses rather than getting contacts is because I think my head is too big and that I need glasses to balance it out.

3. I have a serious lip gloss addiction - I have at least one on every floor of our house, plus one in the car.

Thanks for sharing that - I actually feel better knowing that if I had caused a scene it might not have made me feel better! People can be such assholes.

The guy that hit me was an older dude (not as in elderly grandpa, but in his 50s at least) and I just hate that I let some bitter old man push me around, probably because I'm (or was 4 years ago!) a young woman. GRRR.

In your situation, the guy left, but in mine, I could have forced him to be embarrassed considering we were stuck on a overly crowded metro train.

Another thing you should know about me in keeping to the theme of this thread? I was sleeping soundly and my cat woke me up so now I'm afraid I'm up for a while and really would rather be sleeping than reading DCUM! GRRR again!

Not the PP - I have never gotten a brazilian but I do like to keep it pretty trim down there on my own - it just feels cleaner and I feel a lot fresher after I shave down there.
