FFO 10.22 - it's MINE




Didja hear that people? Gigi at KludgyMom got so pissed I "cheated" on that liar liar post, she decided she's over me and is just giving me Friday Flip Offs.

Really! I'm not even LYING! [so lying, but still wicked happy to take over, Gigi.]

I'm also going to honor some of the original FFO words that I've read...afterall, participating has brought me some incredible connections...

"Friday Flip Offs is my way of ridding myself of weekday angst and frustration before heading into the weekend. I virtually flip off whoever is on my last nerve. It’s very cathartic. The theory is that I don’t take anything out on my husband and kids, although the jury’s out on that.

Join in the fun! Don’t spend your weekend stewing over the little people and annoying situations that got to you this week!"

There's even a linky, people. So link your shit up and enjoy the weekend.

I've got a couple of flips this week. Just a couple. But they pack a punch. Promise.

Bitter Betties. I came cross this blog that links to people who vent about their kids on their own blogs or facebook or the like. This blog is a "community" of women who are infertile. Don't get me wrong, that sucks on a major level. But they see people bitching and venting about their kids, find it in their right to say "fertiles" should be thankful they even have kids and then continue to bash. Bash away, people. It's a free country. But don't be linking and calling people out for a moment of frustration, or even a year or so of frustration, raising kids. That shit is hard and if God gives you your own, kids, bet your ass you WILL one day not like your kid. You will ALWAYS love your kid, but there are days you will be the end of your rope and feel frustrated. You may even vent online about it. STFU Bitter Betties.



Also? Anyone who refers to a whole group of women in the world as 'fertiles?' Like Muggles or WOW'ers or something. Flip the Flip off. Holy NutterButters, people.








Boobs. Specifically my friend's boobs. They tried to kill her. So now? They're gone. She had those funbags cut the hell off. Double-Damn-Mastectomy. A is resting comfortably [high] and will continue her cancer fight with chemo after Thanksgiving. Boobs. Who needs them anyway. Flip off boobs, and fuck cancer.

A TOTAL non-flip off here? The *unbelievable* kindness of strangers. Unfuckingbelievable. I get all humbled and verklempt when I think about how much prayer and well wishes being pushed around for my friend...Annnnnnnnd, well, I'm going to stop before I start bawling again.

Fuck Cancer...
My coworker who I love to death, had to have a double mass when she was 26...now she's super healthy AND AND she has the best new rack I've ever seen. Yes I've seen them. It's crazy what modern science can do. She looks amazing. I'll be praying for your friend. She can do this and will do this!!

Ugh. The fertiles thing. Bet anything that any of those ladies has a baby and they, too, will complain. B/c our kids aren't perfect. I have a friend who had her son super-early and she tells people to shut up when they are late in their pregnancies b/c they should feel lucky to have made it to the end of the pregnancies. But, guess what? It still freaking hurts when your body is stretched b/c you are carrying around a baby for the 40th week. Doesn't mean any of us wish that our babies had been premature, just that our bodies ache! Look at me rant in your comments.

Still sending prayers for your friend. Boobs- who needs them?

How cool that FFOs is now yours!

I'm so glad to hear about A!

And I'm super glad you called out those Bitter Betties! I saw them, too, and how they attacked a fellow tweep. And calling those who can have kids, "Fertiles?" so with you on that, too.

I GET that people vent about kids and whatnot. I do. I'm lucky, my kid's pretty groovy. That's why bratchild is her nickname-it's ironic. Plus, I don't like to use her name online and I call her that to her face-she gets it's a joke.
BUT I can't handle people that call their kids assholes and other bad words. Really?

ugh to the Bitter Betties. I also hate the stfuparents site. Who cares if parents want to brag about their kids on facebook. Shut up!

I dind't know you were doing this. I will have to participate next week!

The Betties thing really grates my nerves.

I think I'm pretty grateful in general to be a mom. That doesn't mean when I'm hungover I wouldn't like a bit more quiet. It doesn't mean teething is easy.

But then, even though I breastfed, breastfeeding nazis make me furious.

I don't appreciate the judgment, really. It's bs.

Like cancer.

i read about that site, with the fertile bashers, or bashing fertiles, or, whatever, and i just got so pissed off. kids are hard little creatures to deal with sometimes and, newsflash, nobody's perfect. not even you, bitter basher.

and i'm so glad you didn't link to them and do them the favor of increasing page views.

You have had quite a week and I think you are a great hostess for the flip offs. I will try and participate more often, if I ever get more organized.

Well I prefer whore or slut to fertile, but whatever.

Fertiles! That's fantastic. It's like we live on Mars in 3010 and there's only a small tribe of women who we must depend on to continue the human race. And thank god, it's not these women. Wait, was that mean of me?

Congrats on the FFO ownership! It couldn't be in better hands with a stronger middle finger.

And if I may? Flip off, preschool teacher who thinks she can teach me how to parent. I think I'm muddling through just fine.

Well it looks like this transition went off without a hitch :) Maybe someday I'll make a guest appearance. :)

Every day is pretty much "Friday flip off" around my blog.

Bitching cleanses the soul, and keeps me from killing people. ;)

Those Bitter Betties are absolutely crazy! I don't understand how they think putting down people who have children will get them a baby of their own.
It won't. It just won't.
It would suck to be infertile but it would suck 10 times more to be infertile, bitter and crazy pants too?! Yikes.
Let them have their little pity party.
They are the ones who have the problem.

I wanna know more about these Bitter Betties since I used to be a childless, jealous bitch. But never, EVER was I like that about it!Gotta check that out.

Congrats on the flip offs!! I guess that means I'm gonna have to start flipping stuff off again, huh?

Cancer can eat me.
