Oh my God, this is the cringiest bunch of posts I've ever read with the crazymuffins and the flesheating bugs. It's enough to make me run screaming from the office...in which case I would probably be sent home, so, thanks.
Most of the muffin site made me roll my eyes, but the" accept that children are God's blessing and if you can't get pregnant or have miscarriages, well then, God just doesn't feel like blessing your sorry ass." (paraphrase) is pretty hurtful, and I think psychologically damaging to anyone who's ever gone through it and seen what it does to your sense of self and sense of being a woman.
I couldn't read the muffin site.
Susan, what is up with dh.
Go knit yourself
would just be my preface.
How awful that I am laughing so hard! Poor boss 'o Teppy. The Jim Henson thing still sobers me when I try and neglect my health for being too busy. Much quick~recovery~ma and minimal~pain~ma sent his way.

Or maybe, "Knit off!" or "Knit you, motherknitter!"
Learn to knit yourself, DH.
My mother started knitting last year and looooves it. She was convinced she could teach me over the summer. "It's easy! You'll see!"
Ten minutes into it I wanted to commit bloody, savage murder on anyone within striking distance.
The flesh-eating bacteria made me shudder, all over. Your poor Big!Boss, Teppy! I hope he gets through this all right.
And I really wish I could drag the whole family out to be tested for Strep A right now.
My husband has become obsessed with me learning to knit.
I picked it up a few weeks ago. I got a kit thing from Walgreens. I like it because it's the kind of thing Kyan (I know, I know) was talking about- mindful meditation. Being exactly involved in just what I'm doing. Also it's fun when my friends ask what I've been doing, and I say "Knitting!" and they go "No, but really."
I crochet, but I don't like knitting. I've tried and it drives me bugfuck. And, I actully like to crochet.
I couldn't read the muffin site.
Oh yeah, I didn't touch that link. I get enough crazy making stuff without seeking it out.
I like knitting. I would just bristle at my husband suggesting a hobby for me, particularly more than once.
That's weird, Susan. I mean, pretty patterns on that site, but if you don't knit, well, why?
I didn't get very far into the muffin site. Reading the excerpts has made me glad I didn't persevere.
