LOL on my other board we had a huge knock down, drag out regarding forks versus spoons.

DH's kid would answer your question with "A chicken strip is the proper utensil to use to eat mashed potatoes"

I s**t you not.

Did someone throw mashed potatoes at her DH? I was going to change my pic to a crazy SM cutting heads off of stuffed animals but I couldn't find the pic on the internet!!

That is exactly what happened.

It has since been my answer for everything.

Kids getting on my nerves... "don't make me throw mash potatoe's in your face"
Co-workers being annoying ..."don't make me throw mash potatoe's in your face"
BM being stupid... "don't make me throw mash potatoe's in your face"
DH being... well, DH... "don't make me throw mash potatoe's in your face"
Someone here wants advice on proper punishment for kids... screw the green bean cans, THROW SOME TATERS IN THEIR FACE!

You get the idea..

Halloweeny is a punch line to a joke.

Why don't ghosts have babies?

Because they have Halloweenies!

Less of a mess to I assume. Never actually launched mashed taters.

I did have a mashed potatoe fight with DH's grandma once, that was more of SMASHING than launching. That was hilarious. It was no where near out of anger.

Exactly... she said it was because she posted from her iPad and that's just how it formatted. I have an iPad (2 actually) and neither of them seem to have that problem.

I believe she also was independantly weatlthy, if I am remembering correctly.

She probably wasn't lying... I just didn't like her, so when I responded to her posts I was sure to use the proper "Hiku" format. }:) I may have been a bit of a bully-bullier back then.

Mashed taters are way better than the whole potatoes my mother used to pitch at me. Those suckers hurt!

I had a mashed potato bowl from KFC the other day. I haven't had one in years. It was so good. And I used the chicken to eat the potatoes and I used a spork!!

Ok, this sounds really gross, but I used to LOVE LOVE LOVE the Thanksgiving meal from the school cafeteria. Something about those instant potatoes, with the gravy from a big plastic bag and shredded processed turkey that I couldn't pass up! mmmmmmm....

When I was a teenager I would come home from school and make a bowl of instant mashed potatoes. Then I would get out two slices of bread and have me a potato sandwich and it was sooooo good!! I wonder if I would like it now...

I'm going to blame this on pregnancy. I'm almost never surprised by something I read on here. Today, however, I was. I was drinking tea, choked on it and peed a little.

OH honey...

Right after my youngest was born, I was jumping rope with my niece and I totally wet my pants. Completely PEED myself. I didn't even have to go to the bathroom... it just came out. Yeah, my niece is now 18 and STILL tells her friends about that one.

It has not happened to me in years but it happened the other night. I was laughing so hard with DH that I leeked. It was hilarious. I don't want to tell the story about why I was laughing but it had to do with sex and a wet towel. TMI!!

I know and DH is going to be home in a minute so I have to turn off the computer. Maybe I will tell some of the story. The garbage pail in the kitchen was gross and dirty. DH put it in the bath tub and soaked it all day. He scrubbed it and it looked brand new!!

That night we have sex. Next to the bed is his hamper with a towel on it. I am yelling for him to grab me a towel and he hands me this wet towel. I am using it and I'm like oh gross its wet and he's like oh its ok honey I only used it to dry to garbage can today!!! What??? GROSS!!! I died laughing because he was so innocent about it. I am dying laughing right now. Maybe you had to be there!!

I'm 22 weeks and still vomiting all day and all night every day. It has been really hard to juggle everything and learn to slow the hell down. Last week, we had an ultrasound and I peed right before I left the ob's office, walked the two minutes to the car, started puking and full on peed and was bawling my eyes out. DH just grabbed me and hugged me. I was so worried he'd get wet, and he said he didn't care. I've wet the bed twice from waking up and throwing up before I could get to the bathroom. I've been doing the exercises you're supposed to, and while after two miscarriages, I'm so thrilled to have this baby, I just want to control one aspect of my body. An hour later, I found the whole incident hilarious. This little girl is so grounded until she's 18.

LOL I remember the mashed potato blog. Good times, good times. I wonder what ever happened to her?

I know... I was disappointed when she got the boot. Her posts were so entertaining. Mean... but entertaining.

DH made roasted garlic mashed potatoes this weekend for dinner. BM stopped by to drop off SS's uniform and our house still had the aroma lingering. She literally stuck her WHOLE head in the door "OH MY GOSH it smells SO good in there, what is that?" I said "that's DINNER, that's what it smells like when you COOK it rather than making it out of a box". (which even that is giving her more credit than she is due, she usually makes something that came out of the freezer section, or drives through somewhere).
