I'd be incredibly horrified if the Urban Dictionary version was correct, hahaha!

Uhm....yeah. That would be a little odd. 

I bean-dip DH's grandmother ALL.THE.TIME. Or I did, when I talked to her. Now I just don't talk to her.

Oh man, I looked it up on Urban Dictonary and now I'm going to laugh when I see the phrase on here for a while

I was on a forum for people with ulcerative colitis before I came here, so you might notice I never abbreviate "best man" or "bridesmaid."


My mom is a nurse, so that's the first thing that my mind always goes to. No, Lolo, they are not having bowel movements at the head table. That is a whole other level of rudeness beyond a cash bar.


There's a lot of abbreviations. I've been guilty of a BM or two... But I cannot abbreviate Save The Date. And then pluralize it. C'mon now! Nobody wants you to send crabs and herpes 6-8 months before the wedding. Nobody.

We were playing Catch Phrase with friends the other night...my phrase was "cold feet." I said "this is something I hope J doesn't get right before the wedding!" Someone yelled "herpes!" Well, that would be a totally different conversation.

So DH and I have been guilty of having these types of conversations but they aren't really fights... just something we acknowledge and move on from in a minute. I usually hate this kind of article because they are usually written with the assumption that the woman is *of course* wrong and irrational.

Ahhhh this reminds me of a game of Taboo. My friend said, "In Victorian times, young people were kept here in houses," and I said, "The attic." It was "nursery." I was told not to have kids.
