Question, probably off topic - I’m assuming the repeat exam is only taken by students who don’t pass the first one. If some students get two tries instead of one, why  ST Louis Blues Face Mask 2020 The Year When Shit Got Real Quarantine Shirt should their higher score get recorded as a higher score? Shouldn’t the second try be pass/fail, and if they pass then they get a score recorded as a minimum passing score?(Asking because this scoring method screwed me over in a vocational school years ago - I passed my tests every time first time, but got a lower aggregate score and therefore lower rank than guys who bombed the first test and then got their higher, second try recorded as their actual grade. It basically punished students who passed the first time.In this case, anyone can take the repeat exam. I'm not entirely sure why, it might be because of how often it is for students to face technical issues during the exam. Assuming it mentioned that at orientation or somewhere else why o

From there, you have each student's two scores side by side and only need to do a simple comparison. You could do them all one by one, but surely there's an easier way. Off to  I Don’t Trust People Who Don’t Meow Back At Their Cats Vintage Shirt Google again, "Excel find largest number". Boom, you found the Max function. I'll leave you with one more useful tip: if you need to repeat a certain formula for each row (in this example, the Max function), you can simply copy/paste the first formula onto the rest of the column, and the address in each row will adjust automatically Yeah I'm sitting here realizing I have no problems with the issue presented if the data is in two database tables I can join and select max, but I have no idea what you do if they are two Excel spreadsheets lol Keep them in the same folder, don't rename the files, and you can still use formulas and references from one file to another!The syntax is much weirder and longer than something

I have a massive exercise to do at our year end (accountancy). My work previously got checked by another manager who spent over 3 weeks going over the  Nice Starry Night Van Gogh Reproduction Halloween Shirt data. Eventually she got shifted to another department and that workload fell on me, basically self audit and then present the data to the actual auditors. My previous manager was absolutely shit at Excel. I didn't let on but I did all the audit on a separate file using simple (but out of the way) formulas. Not only did I reduce the task from 3 weeks to basically real time checks (no time) but when I was told that I have to perform that exercise every month my job became a doddle. I didn't let on that everything was automated by sumifs, indexing, max values and range checks. Living the dream. (Sorry if I rambled on.) Google is your friend here. Don't try to learn everything there is to know in Excel; instead, whenever you encounter a repetitive or long-winded task, try

Idk, sounds like a recipe for bruised apples to me. I guess it’s all right if they were for cider or cooking or fresh eating, but if they wanted to store them, this tactic might cause issues. Maybe I’m too Nice Stay Home And Watch Justice League Shirt essimistic lol Not true. Iv been to places you can’t do that and it wouldn’t work unless you have a machine. And my grandma when I was a kid had a lot of apple trees. So make up stories other places. t work, I go through parts and apply 2 different kinds or tape and 2 different kinds of weave. I have finally got the rhythm down and now I do each part individually, and apply everything at once. Everyone else goes through an entire order, just applying tape, then goes through it again to do the weave. asked to use the big table in the back of the shop, and just put all the tape and weave tools there. And do the parts all at once. Normal rate for an 8hr shift is 1200, but I can manage 1800 in a day, going at a nice steady pace.  I can get 1

This is how we would harvest berries and such on the river. Tarps that hung off of the boat that ran into 5 gallon buckets. Usually one of us kids would climb up the tree and start jumping up and down. You would just prey there wasn't a snake in the tree with you and if you were in the  Pittsburgh Penguins Face Mask 2020 The Year When Shit Got Real Quarantine Shirt boat, that it wouldn't fall on you. Apple picking has been ruined for a while. The trees at my university’s orchard had been genetically modified in a way that their trunks did not grow. They were all just ground level bushes. Just felt very inauthentic. I mean by making it more efficient, you basically made the somewhat fun activity of apple picking into the work day if semiprofessional apple harvesters. We do that at our job when there are a ton of leaves. (Work for a municipality, cleaning up parks in the fall.) Only problem is a tarp full of leaves takes 3 or 4 guys to lift Into a truck. Better than doing just a

I'm so fat. It took a whole pause to work out that you meant delegates and not delicacies. My auto-correct automatically started thinking of delicious food which really messed up the rest of the  Scott 20 Schrute I Want People To Be Afraid Of How Much They Love Me T-shirt sentence for me. Now I'm hungry but good story! I mean would you use a bath that doesn't have an overflow drain in your own home? How about somewhere where who knows what type of people will use it? That's how I trim my bushes. Fuck raking and bagging. I put tarps around the base of the bush. The leaves and branches fall onto them and I just pull them up by the corners and empty them out in our yard waste bin. Depends. I've used a pillow case before, but I am a very hairy guy so you mileage may vary. Raking is to landscaping as vacuuming is to manscaping. Man that's so weird, I've actually trimmed bushes for a job and putting tarps is something I would never do. I would actually miss rakin

I doubt he invented it. The farms by us have been using a machine to shake apple trees that falls into a tarp for 30+ years. It's a bad approach though, apples are more fragile than eggs. Unless they are more resilient when freshly picked. Unless that maybe doesn't matter if you're making cider out of them. Cider apples aren't waxed at all on the tree, so the  Second Dick Shot Colorado Baseball Shirt apples often have apple maggots (not as bad as it sounds), it's filtered, but your cider contains some percentage of maggot juice. But won't they bruise terribly from the fall. Try lifting an apple about the height of your fist from a hard surface and drop it. Leave it for a day and look at it. Normally you go up a ladder with a bucket, fill the bucket, go down, empty the bucket into the communal area, go back up...We do this in roofing. Lay traps around the house, throw the shingles off and then pull the tarps over to the dumpster and throw it in. A significant po

I'm glad I never had to empty bags into bushel baskets. I can't imagine how difficult that is to bring in from the field. Ever since I can  Unicorn Dabbing Working At Food 4 Less It’s Not Just A Welcome To Job Title It’s A 2020 Survival Skill Shirt remember, my family's orchard used bins. I know they used to use crates but that was before my time. It's amazing how they can use a special trailer and scoop up a line of bins in the field and then drop them off in a neat line. Also, I hate it when people think you can just shame the apples off the tree. First off, the apples would be bruised. Secondly, apples that touch the ground can't be used. Why? You don't E. Coli.I grew up in apple country, we used to get paid to pick up drops for cider. I think they probably pasteurized it. But my friends and I used to sit in the trees and make our own cider- we’d pick an apple, and gently bash it around and around and around, without breaking the skin, until the whole thing

Olives are pretty light, you won't even damage them much when they fall. Some fruits will get some damage but unless you care a lot about the looks it's not an issue either.Awe I love olives and it feels cute to know someone shaking olives on to  Unicorn Dabbing Working At Marco’s Pizza It’s Not Just A Moe’s Southwest Grill Welcome To Job Title It’s A 2020 Survival Skill Shirt a tarp for me every time I eat oneAlmonds, too. Wrap an axe haft or other piece of wood with some rubber and hit the tree trunk. Shakes them loose like it's nothing!Those bruised apples will be good for cider and applesauce. I grew up on a farm where we picked into a bag that opened at the bottom to roll apples into bushel baskets. I suppose a lot of apples are now bred to be hard as rocks, but the right way is the right way for a reason sometimes. I’ve worked at a couple small organic farms in recent years handpicking apples, I loved using those bags. It was neat to slowly fill them up, dump them ou

I’m lazy and suggested we make the process more efficient with tarps on the ground. We managed in 2 hours what historically took all day. We didn’t even get to the picnic lunch. Essentially, I ruined apple picking I'm guessing that they were shaking the trees, then picking up t

Extremely hypocritical coming from the states that literally tried to  Cat Everything Hurts And You Want Me To Smile Rheumatoid Arthritis Awareness Shirt ban muslims from entering. That keeps refugees in camps and kids in cages and has the world's biggest prison population by far. It's outrageous. America was the main inspiration for Hitler's eugenics program because they forced sterialized undesirables. you can't make this shit up.Drone strike more syrian hospitals please oh big strong righteous American heros.You mean the woman of which her family all said she was bullshitting and that she lied about the death of her son that's actually being raised in Egypt? Yeah really nothing shady going on there. Probably some fucking cia agent. Why didn't she provide evidence other than a testimony? I don't trust the us with this at all given their record of international meddling. Would this allegation be enough if it was a Mexican against the us? Don't fucking

Although to be fair a proportion of the Jews themselves never heeded "never again" when you look at the behaviour of Israel. Even when you discount the occupation of Palestine, they have admitted to forcing contraception on the Jews they repatriated from Africa to control their numbers. For it to  Funny Daschund Bye Felicia Shirt happen again it would have to happen in China in the first place. But it doesn't happen. It's propaganda. Forcing a casus belli. It's the u.s. protecting their hegemonic status. Trying to get you to consent to war and intervention. So they can end China, the last real opposition against the us. It's honestly tyrannical. And I don't get how Americans could ever think they're somehow the good guys. You people never learn from history. It wasn't that long when you were swindled into believing saddam had weapons of mass destruction and you ravaged the middle east for more than a decade. Never again: Is refering to the Holocau

That western civil stopped killing each other after WW2? That’s one hundred percent accurate. No, it isn't. At all. In fact America and Canada had a mostly isolationist policy up until WW2. Their participation in wars increased dramatically post WW2 and military spending is at an all time high in the  Funny Horse Notes On Sheet Music Shirt history of American civilization. This has actually been a century of global warfare with constant wars between America and other countries.If anything, the exact reverse of what you're saying is true. We've seen a massive militarization of the economy and a huge investment in military spending and constant overseas deployment.We would have to understand what your vague notion of 'western' meant, and we both know that getting into that will result in everyone telling you that you've concocted an imaginary socio-ethnic group to fit your mythological story about the world.Impossible is nothing if you have the power of dreams, j

There was rampant anti semitism then just like there is rampant anti Islam sentiment now.Nobody gives a crap because 'its just Muslims' as if they arent freaking human beings being tortured and murdered!Who the fuck cares what religion they ascribe to  Gincident An Event Which Occurs Due To One Too Many Gins Shirt ?Well you see my friend, Hitler's mistake was not using the Jews as slave labor instead mindlessly invading and murdering everyone he didn't like.That's not true either. Europe didn't do shit when ethnic cleansing was going on in the former Yugoslavia.If Clinton hadn't had a domestic scandal he needed to distract attention from, it's possible no one would've ever done anything about it.I had completely forgotten about that, to be honest. Actually, I tell a lie, it was in the back of my head, but I didn't associate it with any form of concentration camp. Well then, I have no idea what the phrase "Never Again" would mean, but i

Remembrance/Veteran's day is such a joke now in light of all this. Whenever I hear that slogan I want to throw up Mau never gave a fuck about Jews. He fought his own damn country in WW2. The US destroying the Japanese Empire actually helped Mau take power. While it is fine for any group or tribe to  Horse Alien And Bigfoot Into The Darkness We Go To Lose Our Minds And Find Our Souls Shirt focus on their own concerns first, Jews ignoring genocides would have seemed to be a bit lacking in compassion. I am glad they have taken (public) notice here. That generation is gone and while the sentiment was still engrained in us the fact is most people arent willing to go to war over this and like to lie to each other that China will stop if enough pressure is put on them. Appeasement almost never actually works, sanctions almost never achieve their goal, Russia, Iran, N.K, Venezuela... behave exactly how they want with just less money. But there wont be a war unless China forces the issue, e

 They were around with their water trucks and those little Suzukis. Any time things started tensing up it was the UN people fleeing the country in hoardes. I think they misunderstood "peacekeeping" mission. You don't have to leave to preserve peace if you are not a combatant.What do you want the UN to  I Am So Grumpy I Am Not Even Talking To Myself Shirt do bearing in mind it's an essentially powerless organisation that can only give recommendation to it's member states? Recommendations that the UN has been giving but are largely ignored, because the member states need dat Chinese money.UN should be desolved for constantly just sitting idly by while nations like China bring the world closer and closer to The rise of China makes WW3 less likely, not more. If China were weaker, the West would be more likely to attack it militarily, as it did Iraq (twice) or Libya.The point of the UN is to prevent WW3, and there hasn't been a war between major powers since 1945.

A lot of people seem to misunderstand what the UN is for. They are NOT the world police. They really have no authority to meddle in internal, national affairs.They are a forum free to  I’m A Writer I Make The Voices In My Head Work For Me Vintage Shirt anyone to discuss issues so that wars can be averted.The various resolutions aren't actually binding because the UN has no executive arm to enforce them. They are meant to get everyone on the same page, to promote cooperation. Not much more.That’s too abstract for my brain to process; I need to see immediate, concrete results for everything in order to justify its existence in my mind .Lol what exactly would dissolving the UN accomplish? Is someone going to just march in and save the Uighurs once that happens?Seriously, go ahead and explain to me what positives will happen if we dissolve the UN, I’ll wait. let’s dismantle all international organizations we can use to combat our adversaries like China and Russia. That will really sho

It's happened many, many times around the world since the Holocaust. It's not a phrase that's ever seemed to mean anything.I am Jewish and for sure it is for everyone. We are speaking up on behalf of our brothers and sisters in internment camps, just like in the US, where children are separated, caged, or shipped out to  If You Hurt My Cat I Will Slap You So Hard Even Google Won’t Be Able To Find You Shirt foster homes.It didn't work in Rwanda. With U.N troops on the ground screaming to the world about what was going on. I don't think it's gonna work again anytime soon. At least with how garbage and passive the U.N. is.I think you just figured out why Jews wanted a state instead of trusting others to protect them.It wasn't "never again" outside the West. It's important to note the attitude towards the Holocaust and genocide was wildly different in Asia than in Europe, following WWII.the attitude towards the Holocaust and genocide was wildly di

Don't get me wrong, I'm not thrilled about the idea of attempting to  Nice Grab Your Balls It’s Canning Season Shir t militarily force China to stop being this generations Nazi Germany. It would absolutely lead to WW3.I hate that we've gotten into a situation where either we're complicit in genocide and totalitarian dystopian dictatorships or we basically set up the nuclear apocalypse.There's really no good answer here.There really isn't many outs of this, war would mean the end of the world, China would laugh at economic sanctions because we are more reliant on their manufacturing and pressuring them or trying to take the moral high ground is just not working.The only way "out" I can see is through an internal uprising, not from Uyghur's or Hui or any single minority. The majority Han need to step up and say "this is not right." They need to be the ones to fight for the minorities but thinking on it, how likely is going to be? We see vid

Let's not forget China's dirty little back yard, North Korea. A so called "nation" that only exists because China allows it.China likes to keep North Korea around as a rabid dog, in case it needs to  Nice Jesus Has Your Back Vintage Shirt do something terrible, like nuking the western coastal towns of the United states without taking the blame for it. It's a one time thing, but it's good to have.On top of that North Korea is a great money maker for the chinese crime cartels, as it is one the greatest producers in the world of methamphetamine and other manufactured drugs, as well as counterfeit items, currency and oh yeah... sex trafficking.Turns out businesses like cheap labor, politicians like being bribed, and the average citizens don't like world wars.Exactly, it's equally the fault of all of the other countries that didn't criticise china's genocide.I mean I don't know if I'd say equally, but yes, the rest of the world is definitely

A couple years back I woke up at 3am to see someone walk past my bedroom door, I called out in my just woken up, not thinking haze thinking maybe my boyfriend had come over while I was sleeping but got no response so knew it wasn’t him.Got out of bed, stupidly forgetting to  Viking If She Is Not Willing To Stand With Me In Battle Shirt take my phone or any kind of defensive item with me and went into the front room where the light was on to be met with a random guy staring at one of the walls, I asked him who he was and got no answer.At this point I’d actually woken up enough to realise I could really be in trouble so ran back to the bedroom, grabbed my phone and ran outside on the phone to the police who showed up within a few minutes. Turns out the guy was mentally ill and to this day neither myself or the police know how he got in.One day while I was working afternoons a couple years back I woke up at around 10am and started to watch American Dad before getting up. Next thing you k

The simpler summary is  Blood Inside GMC Covid 19 2020 I Can’t Stay At Home Shirt that we (particularly folks in the Ottawa Valley and parts of the prairies) pronounce it strangely, but more like 'aboat' than 'aboot'. The 'aboot' is a semi-exaggeration by Americans, initially caused by a sort of disconnect between how they actually hear the 'aboat' and the peculiarities of their own accents causing difficulty in how they can replicate the Canadian Raising.All that to say, Joe America hears Bill Canuck say 'aboat' funny and says to his buddy Dave "Hey you hear that he says it like 'aboat'", but Dave can't quite hear how that's any different so Joe repeats himself, emphasizing the particularity in such a way that it comes out as 'aboot' and here we all are.Random story time. Many moons ago, like 15 years or so, I was on my way to a Oilers game on a Saturday night with some friends, taking the train to the old Nort

Out of curiosity Ottawa or the deep rural Ottawa valley? Cause I should clarify my only experiences actually hearing it have been rural Ottawa valleyA lot of the  Blood Inside Me Dart Covid 19 2020 I Can’t Stay At Home Shirt hosers around Tyendinaga, Napanee, and Kingston area talk like that as well. My brother moved there a number of years ago and adopted the accent Born and raised and still live in Ottawa. Lived in Orleans, Vanier, Hunt Club, Glebe, and Alta Vista areas. Just like the other dude, never heard 'aboot' until South Park, or people making fun of/parodying Canadians. The city is too multi cultural to find true ottawa valley accent.

Ottawa Valley here. We don't say it. Some of the country boys like to say it but it is more ironic and certainly not representative of how 99% of the people here sound.From the  Freddie Mercury Put A Mask On Your Face You Big Disgrace Spreading Shirt Valley and moved to Alberta. It blew me away how many people could tell where I was from by how I spoke. I thought I lost it living in southern Ontario for a while. Nope.I remember making a writing scenario in 5th grade about a rowboat that could do anything to help people. My Canadian teacher had said robot for the assignment. My row boat was a Pegasus basically, I was pretty fuckin stupid in 5th grade playing the recorder and all.Agree with this. I moved to Ottawa 15-ish years ago, and it's definitely closer to "a boat" then "a boot".If you listen to Dr. Bonnie Henry (BC's Provincial Health Officer), you can clearly hear she's from the east when she says "oat-side" and "oat and aboat&quo

That's good! It's subtle, but seems to be the difference. Amazing to me that American ears are often quite deaf to half the noun version. I live in Ottawa, born in  Funny John Lewis Good Trouble Shirt Montreal and have lived all over Ontario."Aboot" is absolutely not part of the Ottawan accent.I've met some Maritimers that pronounce it more like "a boat", which is somewhat ironic, though.I have some Newfie colleagues who crack me up with their accent. We’re in BC so it really stands out.That's funny cause it's the people I know from Alberta that talk like that.I have a friend raised in Ottowa and the other lived there for some of his formative years, they both say "hoose" and 'out' like "awout".There’s so many wannabe hillbillies that talk like that here in Alberta. Think it’s because they get a lot of their aspirations from trailer park boys. So funnily I'm Scottish and Canada has thousands and thousands of Scotti

As a pure Wisconsinite, I have also noticed, when I listen closely, that Canadians and Wisconsinites have similar accents. I think it’s a regional thing.Well this is news to  I’ll Tell You What’s Wrong With Society No One Drinks From The Skulls Of Their Enemies Anymore Shirt me and I never left, unless your family is closer to the UP then it makes sense.Must be more northern, I've lived here all my life but I am more close to the IL border.

It's like any accent when being mocked, obviously done over the top but a toned down version does existYup. Me too. Grew up in Alberta/BC, thought they were a myth.

My cat is fed by my dad and he free feeds them. It’s hard to interact with her in general because I tragically am allergic to her fur. I love her to  Into The Darkness We Go To Lose Our Minds And Find Our Souls Shirt death though! Also she hates the dog so she is always in my dad’s room. Maybe we should look into one of those hamster wheels.Should you take your cat outdoors, they should be on a leash and harness if they’re willing. If I could, I’d have a catio. That would be living the dream. LolI’ve heard that leash or harness training an adult cat can be super difficult. It reminds me of all those videos I’ve seen of cats with harnesses that simply aren’t having it.Cats were domesticated to help against plagues and protect the crops.That’s nice, but we don’t have the issue of the plague like it was in the past. Sure, they can kill mice, but they kill other animals too. Why don’t wild birds matter? We domesticated them and allowed them to become an invasive species. Other invasive sp

I didn’t say anything about other cats and dead animals, I only stated that I’ve only observed obese indoor cats and that my cats are well behaved. You don’t have to  Nice Blood In Side Me Potbelly Shir t go on a tirade against me to defend yourself.I’m also saying that there are indoor cats that are of healthy weight and obese outdoor cats. Just because you haven’t personally seen them, doesn’t mean they are nonexistent. People love to come up with excuses for not properly caring for their pets.Came here for this comment. Outdoor house cats are considered one of the most destructive non native species in many places iirc.They are. They kill millions of birds per year and other animals, but no one cares because they’re pets. I love cats, I have one myself, but they are not meant to be outdoors. They are dangerous to wildlife.Someone mentioned below that indoor cats should be taken outside for walks/exercise of some kind like dogs need. Do you know anything about that? We have an indoor

The obesity is something I’ve noticed every single indoor only cat at friends and families houses has, and it took a while to realize why my houses cats aren’t the  Nice Old Lives Matter Shirt same is cause they have free access to the outdoors. We offer them plenty of food and they rarely bring home dead animals. Cats really need a lot of exercise and I’m sure they enjoy getting some unfiltered sunlight as much as people do!My cat does get unfiltered sunlight. He does get lots of attention and exercise. He also loves hanging out by the window and gets unfiltered sunlight. He has made it out the door before and doesn’t like it. He is terrified of being outdoors. People can build catios and keep their cats and wildlife safe outdoors. There’s always some excuse to not do something. My indoor cat isn’t overweight, so people’s lack of care shouldn’t be an excuse. My sister and my aunt both have 3 cats between them that aren’t overweight. Free feeding is a big issue. My bf’s parents had an

Well not exactly. No printer takes STLs so you need to use a slicer to  Person Woman Man Camera TV Didn’t Mean What Trump Official T-Shir t convert it to GCode which the printer understands.

A PSA for any one that has one of those gas masks, either the US M17 or Czech M10.I had one packed away and got it out when the pandemic hit in  I Love You To The Books Bookstore And Back Shirt case it turned out it would be useful. After some research I discovered the filters contain hexavalent chromium (used to neutralize chemical agents) and should not be used if you can see black dust coming out of the filters (the chromium treated charcoal). Ideally the old filters should not be used at all, but if its an emergency or disaster situation you can use your own judgement.Also the old soviet gas mask filters shouldn't be used either, pretty much all of them contain asbestos filter media.any kind of full face mask or respirator has exhale valves that bypass the filter on the way out.I 3D printed a respirator that has secondary filters for the exit valves.

Sure,  Horsework Before Housework Vintage Retro Shirt she lived vicariously through me because she never got to dance, learn an instrument, etc growing up but she didn't claim my achievements as her own.I remember my mom attending a meeting for something when I was in 4th or 5th grade and walking out with this shell shocked look. She told me the women were so tied up with one upping each other about normal kids stuff and would not talk about anything else.I had a mother who lived to be able to brag about what us kids achieved. I was the least talented of my siblings and I think I would have enjoyed my upbringing more if my mum had just relaxed more and celebrated the funny weird things I did instead of the only few achievements she found braggable. She also put me in a me against my siblings competition and I would never win.This is a lot

We've been practicing spelling using poop and other silly words. It seems to motivate them better than boring words.Fortunately my daughter (also 4) only does wees in  Horse If You Kick Me When I Am Down You Better Pray I Don’t Get Up Vintage Retro Shir t our garden.My mom said she wanted 5 boys. 1 boy and 2 girls later, she decided she was good.My mom always wanted 5 boys. She got me first, and has told me how grateful she is that she did. FWIW, I wasn’t just a built-in-babysitter...my brothers used to babysit, too. At least the oldest one did. It was a good way to make spending money back in the day. In fact, the money’s so good I’d still consider doing it today if it wasn’t for Corona. Last gig I had (about 8 years ago) I made $15/hour. My 4 year old quietly climbed up on the couch while his dad was sleeping on it and farted so loud on his head. I laughed so hard. I identify with your story and am impressedWhen I was 2 I climbed on my dad’s bed while he was sleeping just to puke

True. I’m just speaking as a person who has greater experience with boys than with girls. 5 brothers. 2 stepsons. I even taught only boys for 5 years (been a teacher for 25 years.) In general,  Good Ol Grateful Dead 50th Anniversary Cotton Shirt most of the poop/farts obsession I’ve seen comes from 8-10 year old boys, although a lot of girls are into it too. Not trying to be sexist/genderist at all. I mean, poop/farts are made to be enjoyed by all. That's fair enough I was discussing unconscious bias the other day and I may have misinterpreted your comment. I probably should get of my high horse before I fall off.Agree with the gender bias comments! It’s important to point them out so people realize what they are doing. It’s the first step to solving these problems.Nah, no problem, I can totally see how it could have come across that way. Still, it’s sort of funny “GIRLS CAN LIKE FARTS AND POOP TOO!”My 28 year old wife still giggles like a little child whenever theres a poop joke.

This was four years ago, and the video was reported for lewdness and removed after a couple days. I assume one of those moms in the  Forget Glass Slippers This Princess Wears Fire Boots Vintage Retro Shirt group had a fit of pearl clutching and couldn’t help herself. BUT it is possible that the recording is saved on some device and I will ask the oldest when he gets home if he knows whatever happened to it, and if I can recover it I will post it.Secondly, yes, I know girls can be just as raunchy and rambunctious as boys.This is the only kind of kid updates I want, tbh.They clearly realized that their own kids’ puny achievements paled in the face of your sons’ viral success!Can you imagine how upsetting it really is to people like that? You get maybe a hundred people to a swim meet or a martial arts tournament to watch your precious baby, and then some kid with a fart video gets two orders of magnitude more watchersYou definitely have sons!!! Congratulations! (My mom had 5)Edit to add

NTA. People can always find ways to be offended and pissed off. You didn’t do anything wrong and I do think the way you did it was just fine. It’s not like you  Don’t Talk To Me I’m Counting Original Sheep Knitting Vintage Retro Shir t prevented them from having their mommy knitting club, and I’m guessing you weren’t contributing much to their kids talk anyway so I don’t see why she cares that much that you’re gone?They probably need that kind of drama because that's the only thing the have to talk about apart from their kidsI have kids. I participate in mom groups. I agree with this. Some people are just hungry for gossip and drama.I’m a mom and used to participate in mom groups. I quickly learned that some of those women have NOTHING ELSE to talk about outside of their kids. I like my own kids (usually), I don’t give a shit about anyone else’s.And that whole bragging about achievements thing bugs the fuck out of me. One time after a round of “Carter just got his third stripe on h

But why? OP didn't shut down the mom knitting thing, or even complain about the encroaching momness of the group she started. The only way she could possibly have been more accommodating is if she adopted some kids specifically to  When I'M Not Super Man I'D Like To Be Called Nibert Shirt participate in mom talk.You can hurt someone's feelings without doing anything wrong. She probably felt excluded/rejected. She also might have felt like her identity had been reduced to 'mom'She had plenty of others to talk with, and was in no way singled out by the OP. And losing her shit on someone who felt like talking about non-baby subjects is an odd way to assert her identity outside of motherhood.Not saying she wasnt the asshole or that she was dealing with her emotionsappropriately. Just that its plausible she was lashing out because her feelings were hurt. Feelings are what they are, and aren't right or wrong. It's behavior that can be right or wrong. Technica

The greatest thing I ever heard a mom say was "My son's an asshole" I looked at her and thought, "I love you".He was an adult, by the way, a dr too, but  Toronto Jar-Jars Official T-Shirt she was zeroed in on who he actually was.I hate it too. My old knitting group (went when I was a student, now work full time so I can't go) was filled with a lovely, supportive group of women. No bitching, no nastiness, just laughs and (when needed) a listening ear. Most people who make drama are unhappy with themselves or their life. They love to stir shit up because bringing other people down makes them feel better for a little bit. They don't really know how to constructively deal with their feelings and make themselves happy so they just keep spreading the misery. Kind of like the bully mentality, its a very immature way of seeing the world and dealing with it. It is immature but there is a lot more to it than that. People in general are pretty ignorant when it come

Then they need to deal with those demons. I honestly, knowing these types of moms, feel it is more about being offended that one finds their mom talk boring...because how can Aster’s recital be boring?? Lack of social awareness and inflated ego  Sometimes You Have To Play Dumb Until They Figure Out That You'Re Not Stupid Shirt seems more the culprit. I’m a mom, I know my friends that don’t have children have a low capacity for mom talk, I leave it for my mom friends...because everything isn’t about me. Honestly I, myself, have a low capacity, as I would like to use my child free time for adult talk.I think for some people it's ego. For others it's just that they don't have much going on that doesn't involve their kids. Some moms have vibrant social lives, volunteer frequently, and/or have high powered careers, and it's easy to have plenty of adult stuff to talk about when that's the case. Other moms, by choice or by circumstance, only have time for their ki

Actually to be fair, I kinda wanna know more about the handwoven nappies from Tibet, that sounds like an interesting mommy story!And I also think it's ridiculous to  Official Tony Fernandez Number 1 In Our Hearts Shirt rhink that mommies are going to be friends just because they're mommies. I straight up walked out of a group once because the mom of a toddler was making horrible comments about what she would do if her son was gay. Ugh.I have a feeling they're just upset because they didn't realize how suffocated the other women felt with the mommy talk. It's not a great realization to suddenly see that your kids are all you know how to talk about when you were probably someone with multiple things going on in your life to chat about before. Of course you love your kids, but it's a nasty feeling to think that not only have you been subsumed by them, but it's gotten to the point where you can't maintain friends your age without children because you can'
