Today is going to be a good day.
Good morning.

 

[themildone]

morning

 

[cassius]

errr... no, not with these flavors

I don't remember most of them, but right now I'm eating an egg and cinnamon bagel.
there's also peanut butter moose tracks, and one's called 'left hand rye' ??

he hit the mother load

 

[Jharkan]

he hit the mother load

you think he knocked over a truck?

I'd feel better about that than thinking that he's flipping bagels off the dark side of the net

Morning, all.

Holy shit did I learn a lot about 12 and 13 year olds from my daughter's birthday party yesterday.

I let her enjoy her day before I plan on grounding her for the entire summer - just for who she chooses to hang out with.

One girl spent the night here and started talking, at the dinner table, about how hilarious it was the first time her boyfriend fucked her. She is 12. Her parents allow this.

My daughter was bragging about having a facebook page that her mother and I don't know about.

I found it. It is deleted. She no longer has a tablet and her phone has been blocked from the router and her mother is going to kill the data plan on it this weekend.

Sneaky. Fucking. Kids.

 

[theturkscribe]

Those bagels that "fell off a truck" can I get one of those? I'm hungry.
And these HITs are sort of blah.

oh, wow. like, in front of you? oh did you just overhear her? If she was doing it right in front of you she could just have been trying to get a rise out of you.

the kids are going to get a social media profile on one site or another.
it's part of the world now, and if you don't allow a site, they'll do it behind your back
we didn't need them when we were kids, because not everyone was on it - we just went to their doors and knocked
but today, if the majority of kids have a social site they use, the rest of the kids will try to get there too,
just to be able to contact others, and not to look like they're in the 'out-crowd'
my 9 year old has one on musical.ly
I also set up the messenger for kids that facebook has, which allows the kids to contact people that you choose to put on their list from your friend-list

 

[sofaslug]

right in front of everyone eating at the table. My wife, daughter, toddler son, myself. She thought we were prudes for looking shocked by it.

or possibly lying about it - saying it was "funny" sounds odd to me
on the other hand, two of the girls I've been with said that's around when their first time was

not me though, I was 27 when I lost my vcard

Yeah, I am tech savvy enough to keep my daughter completely in the stone ages, in terms of technology. Trust me.

wow. I would guess she was lying just because it's really weird to say that in front of adults. but like Jharkan said...I was 13 when I lost mine, so it's entirely possible. It's just weird that she has no filter. Even at 12, you'd think she would know that would get her in trouble.

 

[Sondi]

I think my brother has been doing something illegal.
I think he's buying and seling bagels off the black market
flipping bagels, if you will
he just asked me if I have a way to store 347 bagels,
he only needs the space for two days, tops

two day old bagels

 

[mboone73]

Good morning.

 

[Jharkan]

you're also excluding her from being on sites that most of her friends are on
I get that you want to protect your baby
but alienating her from all of the other kids doesn't do her any favors
and by being super restrictive, she's more likely to both resent you, and also look for ways to sneak around you
it sets up a precedent where she won't tell you about something that you probably should know about, just because she's afraid you'll get mad at her

Yeah, I don't think she's bluffing.

If you knew what the area we lived in was like you would be less shocked.

It's a quaint little vista where ghetto and hillbilly culture collide and somehow Limp Bizkit and Kid Rock are still popular. Confederate flags, low riders, chrome rims, flannel shirts with the sleeves cut off...you get the idea.

 

[cosmia]

Hi and good morning!

Just started turking again after taking a couple of years off from it, and trying to do surveys at 6am is definitely...an experience. I think I repressed all my memories of it or something.

 

[Jharkan]

two day old bagels

I told him no, and he tried to bribe me with bagels.
so I took two bagels as payment for storing 25 in my freezer, and said I cannot hold any more

It's sort of like I think they talk a lot of *stuff* but don't actually do all the stuff and there's hope in that but also, out of the mouth the heart speaks. And who your friends are is the direction you will go, etc etc. My daughter would be on a pretty serious blackout also. Even the sheets on your bed are a privilege. Hope you like 2 hots and a cot basically. Summer is a great time to reinvent yourself from the inside out. Someday she will actually thank you but you'll white knuckle it til then I'm sure.
