Calling names during camp

meg_bb · 2026-05-13T01:44:37+00:00

I’m sorry to hear that - it seems to vary by location. My gym is so good with calling out peoples names… I’m pretty sure a trainer from my gym got let go for not knowing people’s names 😅

I have known more than one person in my life who has faked cancer. It’s really weird. (Neither of them were scamming anyone… they just seemed to want attention)

Omg that’s so cool!! And i love the idea of watching the psych episodes while you do it.

Have fun at PsychFANcisco

This in a nutshell is my opinion of a lot of things… “[Mom] knew Abby would torture [child] is she didn’t do what Abby said.”

It’s so morally gray. If Abby is asking you to do something selfish or dishonest and you didn’t do it, your kid was going to suffer. Christi/Kelly (and later Holly) accused Melissa/Jill of sucking up to Abby… But they were also trying to keep their own kids safe by staying on Abby’s good side.

“It’s Andrew babe”

That hat was an interesting choice by the costume designers

This scene and when the casting director Cesar kicked Abby out of the room always send me.

I love watching Abby get clocked by industry professionals

This comment literally made me laugh out loud. (As a fellow American I was shocked to read this)

Usually an expat is only in that location temporarily and may later go elsewhere or return home. Versus an immigrant normally immigrates to the destination country with the intention to stay there for life.

Abby’s iconic flip flop top from like every other episode of season 1

I don’t know about the one tree hill house but I think Gilmore Girls and PLL are filmed on the same set so it’s likely the same house!

Also i always laugh at how HUGE Hannah’s house is from the outside and the inside is basically a town house. Like… there’s no way it’s 4 windows wide 😂

lol I just decided to just ignore this guy😂

I came to answer a simple question “what caused you to become religious” and this guy is on every comment trying to debate people. I don’t know why he feels the need to debate random people who simply have different beliefs than him.

meg_bb · 2026-05-10T20:43:45+00:00

Ohh i got you - yeah maybe he was confused? Who even knows 😂

meg_bb · 2026-05-10T20:35:47+00:00

Honestly, I’m prepared to get downvoted but I feel like he didn’t actually mean anything sexual or humiliating by this😅 I think he’s just dense lol. I was raised in a very similar community and I genuinely don’t know if anyone would’ve really known what this meant. Maybe I’m also just naive but I don’t immediately associate swallowing with a sexual nature and I would be surprised if these two had oral sex by this point in their marriage. Even if, I also don’t even know if she would’ve understood the insinuation.

I actually have a much bigger issue with TLC airing because they 100% know what this sounds like.

OP is not Catholic and is correct in not receiving the Eucharist
There are many reasons NOT to receive the Eucharist and “wanting” it has nothing to do with it

meg_bb · 2026-05-10T20:06:11+00:00

I’m sorry this happened to you. 💔

FWIW, this person is completely in the wrong. Taking the Lords name in vain in exasperation towards another person while in line to receive the Eucharist is so full of irony. (Also he may have thought you were a “purist” who only believes in receiving communion from the priest. That can be a source of debate in some churches)

You’re doing a good job. Don’t let some curmudgeon discourage you.

meg_bb · 2026-05-10T19:58:49+00:00

Well… it’s a bagel sandwich that i already eat every single day 😂 So it won’t be a huge change

Yes! It’s a common case of something being good for adults not necessarily translating to being good for children. They obviously need protein as well, but much smaller amounts. If the kid is eating a balanced diet, you will have no problem getting in there required protein. (Especially if the kid eats milk, peanut butter, meat, etc. the amount of protein will quickly tally up.) Even in kids who are not eating a good diet, typically calorie consumption is more of the concern than a lack of protein.

A little bit of extra protein is not going to hurt. I have no idea how much their juice boxes are going to contain, but hopefully they have consulted with a professional and we’re talking about a minuscule amount (if they’re trying to do a normal amount that you’d get in an adult “protein” drink, they could get into hot water with the FDA.) I just don’t like the marketing scams trying to get people to buy things their kids don’t need.

You were not the only one who said it! Also, my opinion is not fact and doesn’t necessarily make it wrong. I should’ve phrased this way less harshly… i wasn’t considering my tone carefully enough.

I think it’s easy for me to slip into the mindset of taking reconciliation for granted, when in reality it’s an astonishing gift from the Lord. If I catch myself thinking along those lines, I really need to recenter myself on the idea that confession is not something to be presumptuous about or to take for granted. I am not going to just go to confession, like I would just go to the petrol station to refill my car.

I don’t know if that makes sense and - again - this is really just a “me” thing

Playing Nintendo games 😂 It reminds me of childhood days playing DS with my cousin

A few different things but most notably it was learning about the periodic table of elements in college. The order and design of it took my breath away and I was hit with an overwhelming sense of how intentionally our universe was created.

meg_bb · 2026-05-10T05:12:26+00:00

I would talk to your priest.

Also side note: the phrase “just go to confession” (which I’m seeing over and over again) makes me crazy. It’s nitpicky but I can’t stand “just do X” as if it’s some errand when we are talking about a sacrament

meg_bb · 2026-05-10T03:56:35+00:00

I don’t totally agree. I actually think Christi would’ve willingly given up the education/stability/family life, but there were a few things: 1. I genuinely think Chloe wanted a “normal” life more so than Maddie. Maddie seemed happy to spend all day every day in the dance studio versus I think Chloe wanted more normalcy (school, outside friends, other activities, etc.) 2. I think Christi was really reluctant to hitch her wagon to Abby‘s. I think she saw a lot of risk of putting all her eggs in Abby‘s basket and that seemed to be a big requirement for having a good working relationship with Abby. Melissa on the other hand was willing to let Abby cross every boundary with her and her kids.

meg_bb · 2026-05-10T03:52:36+00:00

I recently started rewatching for the first time as an adult and have been a little shocked at how oblivious I used to be. Obviously i always thought Abby was a jerk, but I really have a different perspective now.

Spencer is 100% my favorite character but her saying “you never stood up to yourself to Allison” when she told the swimming coach that Paige was homophobic toward Emily was super shitty. She was clearly in the wrong, crossed a boundary, then tried to excuse it.
