Hahaha, nice MM, nice to see you!
The schools here have a day where they start late every other Wed. Today was late start, but they also get home about a half hour late on the bus. So I am sitting out there for 10 minutes wondering what the heck is going on... then I soon remembered that the bus would be late today! Sheesh, sometimes I tell you!
I DO THIS ALMOST EVERY TIME and as of now it is getting really old! LOL

They should really only be given out when something is factually wrong, or if the advice is endangering someone (either the OP or someone else who may be reading it)

Reddies can only be given if the person disagrees with a fact. Same goes with the greenies too!

Ok that one reminds me of the time I volunteered to video tape my niece's wedding. I didn't have a video camera at the time so the groom's father was loaning me his equipment. I picked up the equipment the day before the wedding. I was checking out the camera and found a tape in it. So natually I checked to see what was on it. Apparently the groom's father had taped an impromptu strip tease. An image still seared into my brain over 20 years later. Neither of us ever mentioned it to the other.

LOL. Oops I forgot one. I work in a small office and sometimes I get kind of zoned out reading some of the threads on here. I don't know how many times I have picked up the phone and answered it when the fax machine is ringing. My coworkers look at me like I'm crazy. I also do that at home when I hear the phone ring on TV.

Umm did I miss a question here?

By the way BB, that should SHOULD only be given, not CAN. Greenies can be given if someone wants to agree with an opinion.

margarita_momma · Mar 19, 2008, 12:49 PM

Oh Scott that is hilarious!

Scott I would have died if I had that kind of tape in my possession or would that be the father of the bride would have if id got drunk and decided to show everyone

blondiechika05 · Mar 19, 2008, 03:25 PM

I'll have to dig up some incriminating pics but if that happens I get a cut too! Hehehe

And Dad, one time making me chicken patties does NOT make up for all the times you've yelled and screamed for no good reason...

Umm, since I WROTE the guidelines I think I know what they say. The system does not stop you from giving a reddie for whatever reason you want. Therefore, "can" is not the correct word. What we have are GUIDELINES for using the feature. If someone misuses (unless its done repeatedly) there is nothing to stop them.

And if you want to discuss this further lets not hijack this thread.

Synnen · Mar 19, 2008, 03:54 PM

Um... I swear to you, I thought I was answering someone's question about that.

Please... pretty please... just delete all of the crap about the rating system.

I'll go back to my corner now.

Aww sweetheart, I don't yell and scream at you without good reason. Like the time you were insisting on driving to your club meeting in a blizzard, after I had just come back from an accident. Yes I may be quick to yell and scream, that's my nature. But I've also always been there for you whenever you've needed me, something you can't say. Like when I needed an extra pair of hands to setup the new TV and you flatly refused.

Do you really want to play this out here?

LOLOLOLOLOL, this is going to get good, unless you two behave yourselves! :rolleyes:

Ooh, Fight, continue.

Blondie, all kidding aside, enjoy every minute you have with your Dad, time flies way to quickly. And Scott, Ditto.

Okay, really embarrassing story. My husband is really good with a video camera, once the videotaping is complete he puts in pictures and music and other things and makes a really nice tape of memories, he did it with the video tape taken from our wedding.

My friend got married 4 months after we did, I had her bridal shower at my house, 20 people 15 of which I didn't know. During the shower my friend asked if everyone could see my video tape, my hubby was going to do the same as a gift to her, she wanted everyone to see. Well, the tape wasn't labelled, so I started popping in tapes trying to find it. Third tape gets popped in, I press play, and on the screen is a porno tape. I had no idea it was in the house, and the only thing I could think to say to all those strangers was "Oh, sorry, that's the honeymoon tape."

Needless to say, hubby and I had a long talk when he came home. After he stopped laughing he swore to me that he had no idea that tape was in the house. Still don't believe him 100% 13 years after the fact.

startover22 · Mar 19, 2008, 05:01 PM

LOLOLOL, funny Alty, too funny.
Hmmmmmm... I think it was yours!

J/K Alty... :)

Alty · Mar 19, 2008, 05:10 PM

Honestly, it wasn't mine, or was it, hmmm, no, not mine.

I was a bridesmaid at that wedding so I had to go. There was allot of snickering behind my back that day.

Hunn he is your dad that's what dads do especially to there precious little girls trust me if you were to hear him talking about you to someone else you would probably ask if he were talking about you.
Id give anything to hear my dad yell again just so I could yell back mind you lol In fact you know in all the time he was alive I got to 16 before I yelled back I will never forget his face his jaw kind of dropped and he walked off his little girl finally got her back bone giggle.

Allheart · Mar 19, 2008, 10:15 PM

Allheart confession # 2.

I was hmmmm maybe 15 or 16. It was my sister's wedding outside. Hot August day ( I am pretty sure it was August), Mom was in her 40s and my sister getting married, was 19.
The most beautiful bride I have ever seen to this day. They were in love. And Everyone was happy (some more then others... but I am getting to that). Mom thought she as done, with her "cycle". You girls know what I mean. It hadn't shown for months and months. Until...

THAT DAY... (of course)

So she had to leave to change clothes... And there is Sweet, adorable and VERY thirsty Allheart (lmao). I promise you that beautiful fountain, honestly, I thought it was only orange juice... slirp... slirp... drink drink... table... music... Allheart on top of table dancing... (pg rated now :) I was only 15). And there was Dad, clapping and singing right with me.
We were having a blast ( I don't even remember - other then this sensation of being removed from my body when being taken off the table... you guessed it... Mom returned)

Mom was soooooooooooooooo stricted and Dad was just a good man and boy did he catch holy heck for my little stunt, and boy was I a sick girl for a day or two, or was it a week??

Yup, I actually was a table top dance for a couple of hours... hmmmm think it's time to update the resume.

Xo
