Re: Abercrombie & Fitch CEO Explains Why He Hates Fat Chicks

Deb, aww, your daughter...are things going better for her these days? Sorry if I'm touching on a sore spot here, but I've followed your stories for a fair amount of years now and am just curious. Btw, it was so sweet of you to offer cake to a new poster on another thread! You're just a sweetheart. R...

Re: PS Mommy Thread-Newborn to 12 months!

I am always so floored by how GORGEOUS PS babies are. I mean, really. During average, day-to-day encounters with mamas and babies, I never see this many beautiful, beautiful babes. They're just darling. It makes me want more... Must step away from OPKs... must step away... ::) Yes, gorgeous babies ...

MayK, thank you for posting this thread! Happy Mother's Day (belatedly, now, I guess) to you! I had a wonderful first Mother's Day.

Re: RIP Rascal

Big hugs, Elisateach. Your Rascal was a beautiful beagle and I'm glad she brought you so many years of companionship and happiness. I am sorry to hear of her passing. What a lovely portrayal of her you posted on this thread, thank you for sharing her with us.

Re: Ladies, why not ask your DH to join PS?

I did, like 3 years ago. He looked at the site and determined that it was "a shill site" because it was vendor-sponsored. He bought my center stone from an indie jewelry in NYC and had it set locally. I know, I know. We aren't very conventional. But! I ended up with a gorgeous stone in a s...

I just figured it out pretty quickly, CharmyPoo, and I can understand why it might bug you. There is no personality, and we're not used to that here! Perry, as "private" as you are, you've been to GTG's and we've seen your wedding pictures, plus you speak up on Hangout threads from time to...

Re: Safety in posting your pretties

A lot of my jewelry is in a location that doesn't involve a home, safe, safe deposit box, etc. I don't need access to everything I've collected over the years, but I also didn't want to sell many pieces just because they went out of style for a quick buck when gold went up. What's great about jewelr...

Re: Can someone tell me why our pictures are posting sideway

Has PS changed something on their end to auto correct/default? When you post pics on FB, it automatically posts your photos right side up without you having to edit. So, in the past, when I would post a baby pic to both FB and PS, I would have to edit the PS one by rotating it 90 degrees right, but ...

Re: The Cleveland Kidnappings

Such a heinous crime. Those women will need a lot of help to move on from all of this. What a great Mother's Day gift for the families. But I agree with toning it down.

Re: Major Dust Request for DH

Trying to figure things out here. Your DH has been bringing concerns to upper management for several months, and no one's gotten back to him? He's been with the company for 8+ years? He thinks he's done nothing deserving of being let go? So...to me, it doesn't sound like this is a total surprise. Ma...

Everything about A & F is just embarrassing and trying-too-hard. I also noticed that Jeffries made these comments in a 2006 interview? I guess A & F was still relevant back then. Curious, though, why this is being brought up again in 2013... ETA: not why it's being brought up HERE on PS, but...

Re: Get off my lawn you kids!

Aside from being just plain awful for the animals involved, extensive studies have shown correlations between children that kill or torture animals and adults that become violent and even serial killers. In fact children that abuse animals are five times more likely to grow up to abuse humans accor...

Re: Get off my lawn you kids!

I would just call conservation law enforcement and not even bother with the adults in the house. They likely know what the kids are doing and don't care. I think anytime weapons are involved, it's appropriate to bypass usual channels and go straight to the authorities. There is no freaking way I wou...

Re: Are People Too Touchy-Feely These Days?

I am the type that gives hugs but not right away. I honestly don't see people touchy feely though. I think more of the opposite. I hugged Skippy after dinner and wine with her hubby back in 2008! Skippy, I think you were a bit taken aback, but you'd had a weird commute, something about missing a tr...

Re: Why don't you start a topic?

Heh, I've started topics in the past that didn't go so well. I think it's kind of tough to come up with a topic that's controversial without breaking any of the PS rules, and you and Kenny seem to be very adept at it. Maybe we little women just let you get away with it, you know, cause we're lazy. ;))
