Report bad grammar and spelling ring 1800 bite me
I know it has me. Before I joined I thought nothing about take-away food, naked children, twins, pregnant woman, conception etc. Now I tsk tsk when I see kids eating McDonalds. Yes mine eat it but in the privacy of our own home so no-one can see. Naked Children at the beach - good lord no. That's disgusting. Perverts might be waiting to pounce. Twins/multiples - can'y comment how cute they are for fear of offending their parents. Pregnant woman - too scared to even mention they are pregnant in case they aren't enjoying it or I'm the 100th person to ask that day. Babies - too scared to look at them in case I'm gawking. Conception - wouldn't dare ask in a million years if someone is trying, thinking or in case they just don't want children. Oh and don't get me started on judging those who aren't breastfeeding, MCN wearing, co-sleeping type parents Oh and before anyone has a tanty - it's just a Tongue in cheek good fun, having a joke type post.

There used to be a regular poster on here who would start anti fat threads every now and again - I must admit now that when I go for my power waddle in the morning I feel really uncomfortable whenever I meet a tiny little fit person coming the other way! I just KNOW they are laughing at me as the 'lost cause' that I am! One day I fear I'm going to turn around and start screaming "I've never eaten MacDonalds in my LIFE thank you very much! And I HATE Tim Tams!!"
