They are both unattractive to me.
And yes, you know I’ve been on painkillers lately.
oh xsboy’s frame of reference is his teammates, he’s not opining on their fan-dom as a whole. certainly you can understand if you have friends/acquaintances who are obnox about their team and then they end up losing you feel the slightest frisson of satisfaction ::cough::soother::cough::: ; )
“Schadenfreude” is the word.
Because you know they would be so over the top obnoxious if their team won? Yes, I have OSU fans in my circle and you know how bad they can be.
oh really? it is? RME
as the comments said, beer is supposed to assist the let-down reflex for breastfeeding. I don’t like beer and never drink it, but this seems a tad over the top as far as arresting her.
yeah, the whole thing is udderly ridiculous.
But how would that amount of alcohol affect an infant?
I saw the “icky” tweet on Twitchy yesterday.
Never should have given them the vote.
It wouldn’t.
Why not? Everything you consume works it way into the milk? Caffeine, onions, spicy foods - many women have to cut those things out because they upset the baby

Rape has been dumbed down, like the definition of “disabled” has been. Feminists now call an unwanted “glance” rape.....so their stats of how often women are raped has gone way up! There is even an article I saw on line recently linking the new Angelina Jolie movie to rape.... something about how she wakes up in the forest after being given a potion by a man - she is different now, evil.... so she was raped by him. I’m not kidding
After watching some of the “on the street” interviews by various tv hosts, I sometimes think you should take a test before being allowed to vote.
