@shiyu: Good point; I though that it was a bit sad, but not necessarily lame, until you quite rightly pointed out that this is something that shouldn’t have been aired to the public. But I wonder, for every one like this, how many parents spot their kids crappy/worrying status update and pick up the phone?

@beckyboo: My kinda girl… I think I love you! Fancy getting drunk together sometime?

Wait, you can’t be wasted when you have little kids? Tell that to my father.

This reminds me of my ex who would go through a six pack of beer and a bowl or two of weed while his 3 year old daughter slept upstairs.
He justified his actions in the same manner as Miss April, stating, “I know what I’m doing. My daughter isn’t in any danger. My parents live across the street and you’re sober. There shouldn’t be a problem.”

Wonderful. There should be some sort of test you need to pass before you pop out kids. I mean, goddamn!

@becky
You just gotta learn how to balance the 2.
My daughter is due some time in the next 3 weeks (god, it feels like she’s falling out NOW, lol) and my birthday is in 2 months. My mother-in-law has already said she’s going to babysit so my husband and I can go out and see a 2 hour show and dinner. Yeah, we can’t stay out all night, but 2 hours is just fine. Worth giving up SOME of my social life to enjoy a life with my child.

It’s great that a mother and drunken child mommy can have these life discussions publicly on a keyboard.

This is why I’m never having children. My social life is much more important!

If the child’s being taken care of and she’s not breastfeeding (or pumping some out before she does the next time, so there’s no alcohol in it) then I see no problem with ‘getting drunk’ ON OCCASION.
Do people think life just stops for the mommy outside of the child? We’re allowed to do the things any other person does, just in moderation and taking into consideration extra factors.
As she said, her son was sleeping, she had someone on hand that was sober, soooo..unless this has happened many times before, and she wasn’t as responsible, only lame thing here is her mother.

@ shutit, that’s from the film “Cat People”. The Creole housekeeper was named ‘Feh-MAH-lee’ because she was abandoned after birth, had no name on her birth certificate, and the people who took care of her thought her gender was her name.

I think EVERYONE’S “heard of” ABCDE, Female, Lemonjello, Orangejello, and all those variations.
But for reals though, as far as awful names, I’ve known two tequilas. My mom worked with a girl named Tequila (spelled correctly) and my middle school friend named her daughter Ta’Keyla. AND there was this girl in my high school named Ronqretta. People always accidentally called her “Rongretta” but it was actually pronounced “Ronquetta.” Why the fuck there was an r instead of a u, I will never know.

I once knew a girl named “Female,” pronounced Feh-mal-ee… seriously?

@BackDoorSanta what? Really?!?!
and even Tim, those suggestions are even tame compared to some I’ve heard what about the really “ghetto” ones like Shantelequavia(sp?), Shanequa, Ketiesha, and I have literally heard of someone named ABCDE pronounced Absuhdee , plus the very very many more out there

@BackDoorSanta – you think “Aiden” is the worst name ever? At least it’s an actual name.

Just today, I’ve seen the following:
Justyce, Paiten, Liyah, and MacKeynzie

I got really excited when I saw Sierra’s name, I thought She Who Might Be Maimed was back on lamebook. Alas for that one different letter. I miss her so.

I disagree with Penny Lane.

Parents in order to take care of their kids they are no longer able to just do what they want.

Neither option is mutually exclusive when you are a retard parent.

I don’t care what people do, they can do what they want, but they better take good care of their kids. I don’t know why that is so difficult for people.

alproshazam, I was once in a really intense conversation with my husband about something very stressful and I was on a good ranting jag and I used the word “tactfulness”…well my lovely husband said, “Some people just say ‘tact’” So to this day we will use the word “tactfulness” whenever we can.

@Blue Smarties

I think the lameness here stems from people having extremely private conversations in this extremely public forum… This was something that could have been (and should have been) talked about over the phone, or face-to-face. Though, it’s easy to forget that, with all the examples of facebook drama we see on here.

I dislike poor spelling as much as the next person, but surely that’s a little harsh? I’d have said they were typos rather than evidence of illiteracy.

By: Pillowofdoom

Pillowofdoom — Wed, 10 Feb 2010 15:52:35 +0000

If I were her, I’d have called her mother out on how she’s so stupid she can’t even spell words like ‘escalated’ and ‘decisions’ right. I’d hardly take advice from someone who’s illiterate…

Gosh, the pair of them are idiots. If you can’t spell, use easier words that you can actually understand.

I think when she says there’s “someone sober” there, she is actually referring to the kid.
