i was concerned early on that i would have body-image issues later in pregnancy (because ive had them pre-pregnancy) but i actually kinda love how i look with the big ol buddha belly!

7:57 am

I remember that feeling! I was so proud of my baby bump.

7:58 am

i kinda feel like the world revolves around me right now...and its rather nice. ;)

7:59 am

hahahaha - as soon as the baby arrives, that stops! but it's okay. Your world will revolve around baby evanadine too, and it is the most amazing LOVE

8:00 am

well, from what the sonographer + doctor said this week, theres gonna be a lot of him to love -- they say hes gonna be a big boy!

8:01 am

oh it's a boy? I wasn't sure if you found out or not....how fun!

8:01 am

yes, ive known for months. baby boy for daddy!

8:01 am

don't worry too much about that - it's hardly an exact science. They said tertiare weighed 9.12 at the last sonogram - she was born at 8.7.

8:02 am

LOL at the baby boy for daddy! In my experience, baby boys are ALL about their mamas!

8:03 am

yeah, i think the sonographer was trying to be a little more realistic, placing him in the 75th percentile + noting that he may just have had a little in-utero growth spurt that could even out... the doctor, however, put him up in the 90th percentile!

8:03 am

it's a secret that doesn't keep, so you will be fine either way. He can weigh whatever he wants, as long as he is healthy

8:04 am

absolutely!

8:04 am

hmmm....there is a fe5 today that is RIGHT up your alley, ma'am!

this kid today at school, i was walking him to the office because he was being picked up by his parents, cause he only does the morning part of the summer camp. and he was trying to buckle that buckle that backpacks have that most of us never use, you know, where you can buckle it in front? well, he was having trouble, and i said, 'do you want help with that?' but he said, "no." and he just kept trying and trying and it took him so long but he finally got it. so i said, "i have a new word to give you. persistent. it means you keep trying and trying and trying and trying. you are persistent." :)

4:33 pm

name that proper noun! capital of Iran

4:35 pm

Tehran

4:35 pm

ding ding ding!

i did not realize that. now i have learned that lesson. later

4:36 pm

what did you not realize?

4:36 pm

Lol, Hursh. Others have mastered the art of lurking. I never did. I see chat, I chat. To my downfall on a few occasions!

4:37 pm

i know what you mean, soodle!

that it brings out lurkers. sometimes you don't want that.

4:38 pm

ahhhh

sheesh, i have been typing and typing and still need 44

4:39 pm

i need 99

4:39 pm

But - on a positive note - Irish Babble Meet-Up #2 is on schedule! Trifiso is arriving here in a couple of weeks. 😄 I CANNOT wait to meet her.

i am supposed to go out but the weather is very threatenting

4:40 pm

kewl soodle! i want to visit Ireland someday

4:41 pm

the weather say, "hands up or i'll shoot!"

4:42 pm

I have only ever met one Babbler in person to date - Riverdance. We had a great night in Galway a couple of years ago.

4:42 pm

i met bex, atalante, and sprite

pretty much. it was to be outdoors but will end up in the banquet room. they are so depressing.

4:43 pm

banquet room? is it a wedding?

no, a dance at country club patio.

4:44 pm

I really think it's brilliant to meet fellow Babblers. Faces to names etc....

4:47 pm

I admit it. I was totally taken in by NancyBoy & co. It restores my faith in Babble to meet real live ACTUAL people!

4:48 pm

i was totally utterly and completely wrong in what i had imagined sprite looked like.

4:52 pm

Oh crikey... Poor Trif probably thinks she's going to meet up with a skinny youngster. Instead, she'll get me.. Lol

4:53 pm

(Me being a fat oldster....)

4:53 pm

lol

4:54 pm

hi all

4:54 pm

hi all

4:54 pm

is there an echo in here

4:54 pm

Soodle, you looked neither fat or old in the pictures I have seen of you.

4:55 pm

the camera may add ten pounds, but using an old picture can subtract more than that

4:55 pm

lol

4:56 pm

It's nice to see someone admit to being "taken" by the Nancy Boy persona. I was as well. There is no shame in being nice to someone, even if they are fake.

4:56 pm

I was taken in as well

4:56 pm

Well - regardless of my weight or advanced years - I can guarantee her a great night of entertainment!! Hey Peri!! Thank you. My pictures are censored before they reach FB.

4:56 pm

oh i was too, never knew it was uncommon to admit it

4:58 pm

there really is nothing more relaxing than finding words

4:59 pm

until you get stuck, that is

4:59 pm

hehe

5:00 pm

Oooh. I get shivers whenever Ruru uses the 'NancyBoy ' profile picture. I shake my head in disbelief that some gobshite devised such an elaborate scam. Shame on them.

5:01 pm

idk why anyone would feel like it was an accomplishment to trick people in that way anyway. unless you think the ideal state of the world is for everyone to go around suspecting that everyone is lying all the time...

5:01 pm

Unfortunately the whole Nancy Boy thing made certain people realize how easy it is to post as a fake here.

5:03 pm

would anyone care to point me towards any of the 8s?

not hindquarter

5:04 pm

Hursh, I think some people get off on faking people out. I suspect there was a whole lot of "back chat" in email circles (among "Frank", "Nancy Boy" and others) about how badly they had fooled the Babble chat people. I think certain people here are embarrassed about that.

5:04 pm

thank you TO!

5:05 pm

ah well

5:06 pm

My one & only 8 is tr, first vowel, opposite of stop (g*) & what you boil eggs in (pa*).

5:06 pm

thanks

5:07 pm

This is a (mostly) nice group of people who have fallen for some bad tricks played on them. Some about fake posters, some about fake financial needs. It happens in chat forums where most people are perhaps "too trusting".

5:08 pm

well, i suppose people who sent money would be more upset. i felt hurt at the time, for being sad about the death of someone who turned out not to exist, but, it was the sort of thing that i could shrug off after a day

5:10 pm

I'm not embarrassed about having fallen for the 'NancyBoy' thing. I'm mad at myself for having being duped, but, hey! It's not the first time I made a bad call. I live & learn.

5:11 pm

on another topic... the teacher i work with gives the kids points, in groups, for following directions well and stuff. if they get five points, they can get a prize on friday. well, one group had seven points today and a kid asked if they get to keep the two extra for next week. she said no, and that the extras are just good in case they do something awful and lose one, now they still have five and can get a prize. and i thought, if these kids were smart, they would realize you just gave them a free pass to act like jerks for the next hour.

5:13 pm

i gotta get some exercise, bbl

It was easy to fall for the Nancy Boy thing. "He" seemed genuine and was very funny at times. That is the thing about internet correspondence. It is two-dimensional and you only "know" the person you see on screen. That is why it can be dangerous.

5:13 pm

Well, thank you Hurshy. You have just confirmed that I was a total gobshite in school, that I never thought of that particular angle

5:14 pm

I agree Molls

It was interesting to go through stages of grief and then recant them. There was no person, but the feelings were real! And he was funny!

5:15 pm

It is a live and learn kind of thing, the Nancy Boy stuff. I think people are more careful of their "intimacy" here after that (and a few other things)

voltor

oops, that.

5:16 pm

Kap, I thought the fake death was the worst part of the Nancy Boy thing. That really made people feel violated.

I know, but beyond my own little feelings was the process which I thought was interesting on its own terms. I didn't feel hurt, but I thought WTH! And how did it shake out that someone identified the Japanese rock star?

And the people were so real--Leo, Frank, the evil parents...

projection, i think. that was someone's experience, in real life.

Yeah, that!

It could have been real.

Remember the whole Tawana Brawley.

thing

5:21 pm

Yep, i think you are right Temple. Or else, we were dealing with a narcissist who revelled in attention, albeit second hand....

kap, it is such for me now that i believe nothing. even if i see a photo ESPECIALLY if i see a photo. look at all the crap that circulates on fb

5:22 pm

The most pathetic part about the fake Nancy Boy death was Soodle being publicly reamed out for "leaking the news". That was a real sick bunch.

Believe nothing on the internet.

i have pretty much given up fb

5:22 pm

Photos are so easy to fake with Photoshop. Photos as proof mean absolutely nothing.

yes. and it is a shame, because it can connect as well as divide.

5:24 pm

Hook line & sinker... I fell for it all. And was called out. My shame.

h heck. watching the weather, the rain is just missing us. we really need it!

5:27 pm

Soodle, in retrospect, I thought one of the most hateful things that group of people did was call you out for trying to share sad news with people who might care. Just goes to show what a nasty bunch they were.

5:28 pm

Youngest daughter of Soodle (I'm really going to have to think of a shortened version of her name) is travelling from NH to Montreal for the weekend. She messaged me, saying 'Hey Ma, off to Canada today'. Youth is wasted on the young!!!!

5:29 pm

I am not into Facebook either. It is way too ALL ABOUT ME for my taste. Not to mention all the other ways it garners information about you without your permission.

5:35 pm

Thanks Molly. That was a very unpleasant time on Babble for me & others. I have a personal yardstick that I measure myself up against. Ihave fallen short of that yardstick many times. But not in the Nancyboy case. I regret what happened, but I don't take any responsibility.

5:38 pm

I was a member of this chatterbox when NancyBoy was here and then he died. but I never knew the whole story.

5:40 pm

So Nancy Boy never existed? I was on and off of chatterbox, so I never knew the whole story.

5:42 pm

So NancyBoy never existed? I never knew the whole story.

5:42 pm

That's right, musica

6:00 pm

It seems that Nancy Boy & his whole persona were totally made up....

6:00 pm

Hi Soodle

6:00 pm

by whom?

6:07 pm

One of them was a guy claiming to be Julian Clary (sp?), a British comedian.

6:08 pm

Halfway...need to cool off. BBL

6:13 pm

Back when all this was going on, someone from the UK said they went to see Julian Clary perfom and talked to him afterward. According to that person, the real Julian Clary had never heard of Babble. But, hey, that is if you believe what people post here.

6:32 pm

well, i've never heard of Julian Clary, but, i've always been highly skeptical of people claiming to be famous people - or close friends of famous people - online.

6:33 pm

there are two kinds of famous people. one kind is too busy to babble, and the other kind fills the emptiness in their souls with drugs, not word games.

6:55 pm

People who fake it on the internet are very clever. And they seek out chat forums full of those who are trusting and believe in fake personalities that sound legitimate.

7:06 pm

Hi all

7:08 pm

hi Liz

7:09 pm

Hi peri

7:10 pm

Hi again.

7:10 pm

Hi jellen

Who reamed soodle out ? I don't remember that part? Not to revive the gossip, but did we have an ongoing troll?

7:11 pm

Before my time.

7:11 pm

There have been a number of trolls here though. Best just to ignore them.

I always wondered who id'd the japanese pop star. I would imagine that anything with anonymous chats could have a false ID problem, because it is a pplace where you can be whatever character you want.

7:14 pm

I always thought it was Ruru who id'd the Japanese pop star, which is why he uses that icon every so often but I could be wrong.

I don't remember the ream out- wasn't there also someone who gave us health updates and accepted our condolences?

Every now and then during school vacations bored kids come on and start being annoying.

7:15 pm

They're easy to spot though! Usually.

OK, here is something we saw tonight at a restaurant. Young blondish well-groomed parents. 2 little kids, ages about 2 and 4. Now get this...

Each child had large ear covering headphones and a tablet. There was not one child sound the whole time they were in the restaurant

7:16 pm

I lost a fiance about 6 years ago.

Every now and then the mom would pass a piece of tempura into the 3 year old's mouth. With no eye contact or words whatsoever.

7:17 pm

That's just so sad but just as sad as a group of adults all sitting round a table in a restaurant, all looking at their phones.

Worse, because the kids didn't really have a choice.

Jellen, I'm sorry.

7:18 pm

I taught a child, who had poor vocabulary and when I suggested to the parents that they should walk and talk, they said that they did walk but they were all happy in their silence together :(

7:18 pm

Oh, I just meant that I gave health updates in chat.

7:18 pm

Also sorry, Jellen.

Their braincells are developing in new and different ways, and by the time they are 10 they will be another species. Or human robots.

7:19 pm

Human robots with overdeveloped thumbs from texting!

Makes me long for the days of crying children.

7:19 pm

Except on planes!

It was bizarre.

7:19 pm

Hi folks

7:19 pm

Hi origami

7:20 pm

Hi, origami

On planes- I heard there was a family traveling with infant twins, and the parents, before take-off, gave chocolate to every passenger

anyway gtg.

7:21 pm

Nothing like sweetening everyone before the storm!

7:21 pm

Enjoy your evening. Shabbat Shalom

7:21 pm

Just read through the chog. I hate it when I see people in restaurants (or anywhere else for that matter) just glued to their phones. And it really disturbs me that we are teaching our children to be connected 24/7.

I tried to "like" your post, but it's not FB. God Shabbos

7:21 pm

:)

I mean Good.

7:23 pm
