Confession

I'm demanding a do-over wedding because the bow on my sash is fucked up in all my first dance photos. It was STRAIGHT when I left the dressing room, gahdammit.

Totally legit. You deserve it.

I didn't do this today but I often sneak ingredients that DH doesn't like into recipes because I like them. Nothing as blatant as like mushrooms, but I do it all the time with minced garlic and nutmeg. If he knows about it, he will freak and say he doesn't like those, yet when he doesn't know it's in there he doesn't frigen taste it or notice. lol

Also, my brother gave his baby a name that I think is really trashy and stupid, so now that they announced their pregnancy with a new baby I'm already in anticipation of what this name will be....

birdybride2014 · November 2014

@jenna8984 now I really wanna know this baby's name!! although I understand why you probs won't post it.

I confess that I've been stalking Delta all day to see if I got upgraded to first class for my flight home. And I'm trying to figure out how to avoid dinner and shop talk with my team tonight, but still get the company to pay for it.

lol FI hates mushrooms and says he's allergic to them. (any time he doesn't like something, he's "allergic" to it.) When he went out of town for a conference, I bought myself a nice bottle of a wine and cooked a big steak with sauteed mushrooms on top! And then I sent him a photo of it. He was totally jealous of the steak, and I totally enjoyed the mushrooms

@birdybride2014 Ok it's not THAT bad in comparison to some names out there but it's Jordynn. I'm perfectly fine with Jordan but I can't stand the Y and extra N. It pushes me over the edge haha

DH is the same. He claims to be allergic to ranch dressing. Dude, just say you don't like it. You can't be allergic to ranch dressing.

Yeah, I'll register some hate for that name, too. But I can't stand all the cutesy spellings people do these days.

birdybride2014 · November 2014

I can get down with why that's disliked. It makes me think of when the letter "i" is used at endings...like Candi ( i used this example with the assumption that no one here on TK has this name, and if so I apologize lol)

When I go to restaurants if I order something that has an ingredient I don't like (like pineapple) when I tell he server no so-and-so I mention I'm allergic to it even if I'm not. It's been my experience that people are more likely to remember not put to something in a dish if they think it might kill you.

I do the same thing with onions, and would understand if he did it with mushrooms, which he hates... but ranch dressing?! Nobody's hiding ranch dressing in your food, dude.

I know someone that named Their daughter Piper Rayne . Am i the only one who thinks her parents will give her a brass pole for her 16th birthday?

theartistformerlyknownas · November 2014

Someone I know named her daughter Karsyn. :-/

I'll admit, I have an i-ending name. But it's at least a pretty common one. Anything else with random letter substitutions... NO. If you want your kid to be unique, raise them to embrace the uniqueness we're all born with. Let them pursue hobbies you think are weird. Don't stifle their creativity. Don't force it upon them with a name nobody can spell. Lookin' at you, parents of kids named Jaxsyn.

I have been reading old threads on Snarky Brides just for the drama. I had a bag of Goldfish crackers for lunch. I think Goldfish might be my favorite food item.

I honestly eat goldfish crackers for breakfast all the time. I'm really not a breakfast person but I get hungry.

Nu-uh. Thats not even bad. I knew a kid named Jawden. I shit you not.

Also, a kid named Wandaful. Not 'Wonderful'. Wandaful.

I really hope the next time humans evolve, you can't procreate unless you have a certain IQ.

I support the bolded. I used to manage an after-school program. There was a kid named Alize. If you name your kid after alcohol, you should not be allowed to procreate. Funny thing was, her little brother had a totally normal name.

There was an article floating around FB recently about the 21 things people with uniquly spelled names need to get used to - maybe you can track it down and show it to him to demonstrate the difficulties they are setting their kid up for.

Speaking of alcohol, reminded me of another: "O'Hennessey". Are you effing kidding me?

Now on to the topic at hand...I hide ingredients in food all the time. My stepkids are extremely picky and while H is better he too can be particular. So I often find myself pulsing onions or garlic into paste in my food processor while the kids aren't looking. IF they so much as see a sliver of onion it is all over and I will end up throwing the entire meal away.

amelisha · November 2014

Alize! That's amazing. Now I want to name my firstborn Hypnotiq. Male or female.

I threaten to do this all the time with FI and cilantro. He HATES it and he can taste the tiniest little smidge of it.

I knew a lady whose husband was allergic to certain laundry detergents. He would break out in a rash if she used it. Whenever he made her mad, guess what happened.

Not gonna lie, my fiance says he's allergic to scented detergent, but when I use the unscented stuff, even with baking soda, his clothes still come out smelling like man. But he used to sleep in my bed when I washed my sheets with Gain before I moved in with him...and he was always totally fine. So I switched to a brand with some "Natural Expressions" crap on the label that he thinks is chemical-free but is totally not and tested it on a load of his socks...and he's completely fine. Not allergic in the slightest. And now his clothes smell wonderful.

I do it constantly.

SS has no idea that anything he eats with ground beef in our house (other than burgers) is actually 60/40 beef and eggplant. He can't tell the difference and I get more veggies in. I frequently lie about what a veggie is. He claims to be ok with spinach and hate lettuce so everything is lettuce in our house- kale, butter lettuce (I can't fake romaine or iceberg), random greens, etc.

Per the name convo, a story...

When my uncles got married a few months back, DH got to hang out with some of my cousins he rarely sees. There was a conversation about stripper names. My cousin references a favorite stripper name... which happens to be DH's niece's name (my step-niece?). DH continues to give her endless shit about this. He thinks it's hysterical.

Okay, for someone who is actually severely allergic to mushrooms, doing this when you don't have an allergy is really terrible. I know you think that it is relatively harmless, but because of this behavior, servers don't believe me when I say that I have an allergy to mushrooms. They just think that I don't like them and don't want them in my food, and then they do not take the proper precautions to make sure that nothing that is served to me comes into contact with mushrooms.

Please stop doing this; most of the time you can ask for no mushrooms (or whatever ingredient) anyways if you don't want it.

AuroraRose41 · November 2014

As far as confessions go, I have been spending time at work looking at investment strategies and knotting. And I don't feel bad about it all. Especially since my project pretty much was cancelled and my manager doesn't even know what other ones to put me on.
