So, BoyM just threatened to kill TM's ex because he broke her heart.

[Midlodemocrat]

The ex that is, not BoyM.

Not sure if I should ground him or take him out to buy him a car.

:rofl:

[DS1]

1. Isn't she in college?

He did the best thing possible for her


:hide:

[Midlodemocrat]

3. Yup.

I agree, but she really, really loved this kid. The one in the pics.

And, since boys at her school are after her 'like it's her job', to quote her, I think she'll rebound quickly.

The ex was just over the top in mean via a text Sunday, which is why BoyM decided to have a go at him. That's what they say in England, right?

[DS1]

7. Right

Perhaps he can practice on this guy first

[Midlodemocrat]

8. She's got a vampire crush thing goin on these days.

[nomorenomore08]

50. NOOO! Not the Stone Roses guy!

nt

[Shell Beau]

12. My friend just got dumped by text! Remember when it was

rude to break up over the phone?

[Midlodemocrat]

15. I know. The anonymity of it gives people bigger balls I guess.

He was really mean. Unnecessarily so, IMHO. HE was pursuing her at Christmas to get back together; it wasn't her idea. She'd been enjoying all the new guys at college.

[Shell Beau]

21. She will look back and be glad that she got to date around in

college. My husband and I were together all through high school but broke up for a while during college. I am actually glad because we got to experience other people. I hope he gets so jealous he can't stand it, and she tells him to shove it!!!!

[tigereye]

30. is she doing well at school? She seems like a neat kid - you done good!

sorry to hear about her break-up, but there are plenty of fish in the sea!


Wow, didn't know your other one was already 16! Holy moly. Is he driving the mini-van yet?

[Midlodemocrat]

34. She is! Thanks for asking.

She really likes it and is doing very well. Straight A's so far.

And, he is driving the van, but he doesn't have his license yet, just his learner's. He will drive her car when he gets his license for a while.

She's getting an apartment off campus next year, so we have to figure something out about her car situation. I didn't want her to take it to school this year, but she'll need to next year.

[tigereye]

36. it's so wild when you see folks's kids "grow up" via the internet

for a minute there I thought it was the former Mrs. G posting! A couple of you guys have kids now in college who were much younger when I first started posting here 5 years ago! Yikes!


(Mine will be 13 in a few months and he's not surprisingly, taller than me. It's bizarre.) He's almost old enough for me to let him post here, not that he would be interested since it doesn't involve sports or the Steelers.... :eyes:

[Midlodemocrat]

37. The first pic I posted of them, she was 13.

Time really does fly.

[tigereye]

39. my mom always said, soon they'll be driving. Seems she was right!

So have you had that second career crisis that goes with teenagers (and aging parents?) I have to figure out what to do with the rest of my life! :D

[Midlodemocrat]

40. I'm just feeling glad that I am still employed.

My folks are gone, so that part of my life is over.

[tigereye]

45. yes, I know what you mean - my current business is one that tends to do well

when things are falling down around our ears - I feel fortunate that both H and I still have plenty to do work-wise.


:hug:

[HopeHoops]

2. I don't have a flying fuck of an idea what any of that means. Sorry.

[Midlodemocrat]

5. What are you new here?

Jeebus.

Try to keep up.

TM = TeenMidlo, my 18yo
BoyM = BoyMidlo my 16yo
BabyM = BabyMidlo, my 12yo.

I post about them to vent my frustrations so that I don't kill one of them. I don't look good in orange.

[HopeHoops]

9. I'm not THAT new - I took notes.

[Midlodemocrat]

10. Welcome to DU!!!!!

:rofl:


:thumbsup:

[HopeHoops]

16. Cute.

Ptttthhhhhh.....

[Midlodemocrat]

20. Hey, I didn't call you Hitler, did I? You should be glad.

:rofl:

[HopeHoops]

24. Well YOU are just fired up this afternoon!

[Midlodemocrat]

25. Yes, that is true. I have some ground to cover.

Haven't created havoc in the lounge in a while, so I need to do so post haste.

[HopeHoops]

44. STREAKER PICTURE POST TIME!!!!!

Sorry, don't have any - just seemed like the right time for it.

[flvegan]

4. BoyM IS still a juvenile.

Any charges if caught...uh, nevermind. I'm a bad influence.

[Midlodemocrat]

6. Eggzactly. However, the dipshit threatened la douchebag ex

in school.

Although, I think la douchebag ex is probably too embarrassed to admit it. BoyM could take him, there is no question.

[DarkTirade]

23. Just make sure he knows where the sensitive spots are that won't cause permanant damage.

... and just in case, a few that will. :evilgrin:

[Shell Beau]

11. Aw! He is being a sweet brother.

My brother threatened everybody before I even dated them just to let them know he was keeping an eye out. Got aggravating really. But it was sweet too.

Sorry about TM!!

[Midlodemocrat]

13. BabyM will never be allowed to date.

Any boy that comes near her is greeted with a growl that is grizzly worthy. :rofl:

[Shell Beau]

14. I have joked that I will be the mom with the shotgun when the

guys come for Bella.

[MorningGlow]

19. Even MG Jr?

C'mon, how can you say no to this face? :D

[Shell Beau]

26. Cute now! Evil teenage boy trying to break my innocent

little Bella's heart. She will be innocent I tell ya!!!! :rofl:

Really, he is precious.

[MorningGlow]

27. LOL you are totally within your rights as a parent

to scare the pants off of any potential suitor with any kind of firearm you deem necessary. :rofl:

You think you've got problems now...Jr's 5 and the girls are already chasing him--one keeps trying to kiss him in kindergarten. I'm doomed--doomed, I tell ya. It's a short hop from the girls calling him "cutie" to phoning the house at all hours asking to talk to my son, giggling uncontrollably, and hanging up.

So...where can I get me one o' them shotguns? :D

[Shell Beau]

31. I still have to purchase mine. But I live in Mississippi so it shouldn't

be too hard.

:)

[MorningGlow]

33. How intimidating is Mr. SB?

You might not need firepower. My dad was always mild mannered, but once when my brother (who's 15 years older than I am) was visiting for Christmas and my high school boyfriend came to pick me up, he started bellowing from the kitchen "WHO IS THIS GUY AND WHAT ARE HIS INTENTIONS?" My BF turned green. I hustled him out the door as fast as I could, but not before I caught my mom giving my brother a dope slap and telling him to shut up. That was one of the only times my mom took my side instead of my brother's.
:rofl:

[Shell Beau]

38. I don't think there is a more laidback person on the planet than

my husband. You can't make him mad no matter what you do. It will be interesting to see how he will be when Bella gets older.

[MorningGlow]

41. He might very well change

Once he claps eyes on the first punk who wants to date his darling daughter!
:rofl:

[AlCzervik]

42. Wait until there are boys.

I'm bad but my husband who is pretty mellow, no. My daughter went to a dance, she did dance with some smelly boy so i asked what his name was and my husband chimes in with "His name is dead"

:rofl:

i recommend a metal louisville slugger btw.

[MissMillie]

17. precisely

so buy him the car.... then you can drive it while he's gounded.


:rofl:

[LynneSin]

18. But will BoyMidlo approve of Matcom as a future suitor of TM?

inquiring minds would like to know

[Midlodemocrat]

22. She says he's

Shhhhh 'too old'.

Plus, that whole married thing didn't go over well either.

I'm trying to steer her to DS1, but he refuses to ditch SO.

[AlCzervik]

28. Give him the Mini van!

Boy midlo's fuck truck!

anyhow good on him for wanting to kill that kid.

[Midlodemocrat]

29. Heresy!!!!! The Van in ALL MINE, baby.

:rofl:



Mr. wants to give him 300 when he gets a new company car. Sure. That will end well. :eyes:

[AlCzervik]

32. 300 what? a Chrysler 300?

if so make sure you pimp it with some big ass rims baby and get the doors changed over to suicide style. And then you'll post a picture of course.

[Midlodemocrat]

35. Sure. Right after we take the governor off.

:rofl:

[Lil Missy]

43. Siblings know how to care for siblings.

My brother knew more signs than I did.

This guy got WAAAAAY too aggressive and rude to me. He did not know my brother was there.

My brother walked him to his truck, and mentioned that he had insulted his sister, BTW. This bozo reached under his seat and my brother sucker punched him.

I was like, what the fuck did you do THAT for?

Turns out the bozo was reaching for a gun. And got busted before the night was over.

[LeftyMom]

46. BoyMidlo is a pretty big kid. TM's ex might want to look into witness protection.

At least, if you let BoyM borrow the MidloVan long enough to go do the deed and dump a body. I don't know if there's room for that in the Camry.

[Midlodemocrat]

47. No way. No blood in the MidloVan.

He can take his father's car. :rofl:

[JVS]

48. What did X do to TM?

[Midlodemocrat]

51. Put a full court press on her at Christmas and then

sent her a very ugly text message that essentially said he hated her and really wouldn't care even if she died.

[Bake]

49. What a good brother!!! Buy him the car!

Or just give him yours. You buy a new one.

:hi:

Bake

[CreekDog]

52. tough one

give him your minivan. :D

[Midlodemocrat]

53. Like hell. I don't like him that much.

He can have his father's car.


:rofl:

[Jamastiene]

54. Get him a car.

Good kid you got there. :thumbsup:

[malta blue]

55. having a little brother rocks once in a while....

:thumbsup:

Go BoyM! :yourock:

[Missy Vixen]

56. I love BoyMidlo

You did a good job, Mom. Just don't let him join a boy band. :scared:

In the meantime, I can't wait till TM ends up with a guy that's exponentially better than Douchebag-Ex (DE for short,) and she gets to rub his nose in it. Goooo, TM.

[Midlodemocrat]

57. He does have his good points.

Her friends are all up in his house like a disease. The ex that is.

I did tell him when I dropped him off this morning not to do anything in school. LOL. I really don't think he'll do anything; he was just supremely pissed off.
