Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it,
follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given
their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!

I was trying to teach her to pee in an appropriate receptacle, preferably one which she is not currently wearing. 6-7 pair of wet (to various degrees) panties over the course of a single morning, with one actual successful urination in an appropriate location (which I mostly attribute to the power of statistics -- if you spend half the morning sitting on one potty or another, you'll eventually pee in one of them) means I pretty much failed.
If she wants to do it standing up, at this point I'll let her as long as she at least takes down her pants & panties and tries to aim.
I am a mixtape master.
Tell her that if she doesn't get it right next time and from then on, you're going to ban her from peeing.
EDIT: Down Zen, down!
Drez you are my favorite poster.

I prefer dogs, because society doesn't make me feel bad about using the rolled-up newspaper trick on them.
Or even better, cats, who are smart enough to not need to be beaten.
My nutz can also take a lickin'.
Upon further thought: I ought to buy a pair of truck nutz and attach them to a moped or perhaps a pedal bike.
I thought those were the same.
Oh well, the more you know.
Well, he IS the popular pedophile around here but still.
She's 3 plus a couple of months.
She knows what a potty is for, she likes to go through the motions, she particularly likes the part where she washes her hands afterwards, she just doesn't want to (or can't) predict when she has to go and hold on until she can get there.
I'm well aware that plenty of kids aren't trained until this age or even later, but she seems actively resistant to the very idea. It's frustrating as hell.
I'll be back later.
God damnit

Usually I'd say stay the course, etc. etc. but yeah you might want to give it a bit of a rest. Maybe one more day, this could be the rough part. I don't have a kid yet so I really shouldn't be dispensing advice.
My kid sister wasn't fully potty trained until the second day of daycare (a few months before she turned 4). I'm sure she only did it to fit in.
If faith is just a silent tribute, mine is just a desperate act.
Yeah, I almost wasted $300 to be one of 1000 people to see them play an impromtou show in Atlanta, GA, but I backed out cause the tickets on craigslist seemed shady.
I'm glad I did, because I heard the show sucked. In fact, I heard a lot of their live performances are ass, which is a tragedy.

I refuse to edit wiki entries for your grammatical pleasure.
Is the stuff under the dashes to Nerissa or Zen, because everything through "give it a rest," and especially that phrase, could apply to Zen as well.
'rissa. I'd never rip Zen on his schtick.
It's a shtick.
That's exactly right.
I used to always hold chopsticks wrong despite my parents teaching me how to hold them properly at the age of like 6. Until I met my boyfriend and we went out for dim sum, and I saw him holding them correctly, which made me feel like I should hold them properly too, so I've been doing that since that day. So peer pressure (from a white guy) was the only thing that was capable of making me hold my chopsticks like an adult.

So she's a good asian at the same time.
I dunno if I use chopsticks right, but I always raz people who use a fork and knife at a Chinese restaurant.
Nuts to you
People can try to extol the virtues of chopsticks as some kind of superior eating instrument, and I think that's nonsense. They're a product of the cultures that also brought us this wonderful food. Well, you know what? I'm there for the food, not to pretend I'm part of a culture I ain't.
I never go to such restaurants.
Means I don't have five or six forlorn looking tomatoes lurking in the bottom of the fridge, you see.
I am aware of this. I've eaten at traditional Chinese restaurants (The kind you find buried in Chinatown with, like, 10 tables max and a waitress and cook that yell at each other constantly) and dig the food, but I can never convince my friends to try anything other than westernized Chinese food.
I just like eating with chopsticks because it's a change. I have some Japanese chopsticks that were given to me a few years back (I think they're for formal dining or something - really ornate) and whenever I bring Asian food home I eat it with chopsticks.
I watch my mother try to eat her tom yum noodle with a fork and it makes me cry a little inside.
