F U, Fundies

[MrsKay]

Okay, so in the last 24 hours, I:

- slept in while the headship took care of the kids.

- had sex with the headship - BUT, it was for the first time since June, my period was due any second so I knew there was no chance of getting knocked up, and I told him to just hurry the hell up and finish at one point. I also gave him shit for defrauding my nice clean sheet.

- took prescription medication, including antidepressants and other psychotropic medication.

- did some planning on my Michelle Duggar Halloween costume - two-for-one ticket to Hell right there!

- hung out on FJ, and did things online without my headship in the room.

- concealed money from my headship, which is a regular activity (he wants to burn through it if he knows we have it, I hoard it for things we actually NEED, as well as Christmas at this time of year).

I am currently in my bedroom, no kids allowed, while I wait for the prescription painkillers to kick in and take care of my period cramps. I'll post my long-term, most memorable F U Fundies list later.

I went dancing at a goth club last night with a guy friend while my fiancee was at work. Today I'm putting away summer clothes, and pulling my jeans (the horror!) out of storage.

[Sumeri]

Oooh, almost forgot. At the dinner table last night we were also discussing "end times". Lest that sounds fundie approved, it involved plankton and the food chain (son is majoring in microbiology). It also led to a discussion on Harold Camping, and many eye rolls all around.

[Jana814]

This weekend I went to a wedding of a college friend. Then I danced the afternoon and evening away. I spend last night on the couch of another male college friend. The wedding was deffently not Fundie approved. The wedding was in a Catholic chuch the bride and bridesmaids were wearing strapless dresses. The bride's father-in-law danced more then the groom did!

[penguinagogo]

what - just today?

well I broke the sabbath

by working some hard hours

and being a woman in charge over a team including men

and arguing, and acting all uppity and assertive

and using all the skills and actual science (Eleventy!!!) and damn book learning at my disposal

and I may have sworn a few times

and definately wore defrauding scrubs (no skirts, always trousers!)

while poor emasculated Mr Ping had a lovely day looking after the little one, taking him out, and with his help cooking me a lovely meal, plus doing the washing, shopping and cleaning that needed done

On the plus side

there are people alive because I went to work today, and families who arent mourning the loss of a loved one

Im pretty sure jeebus would approve

[LostSamurai]

Let's see:

-when I was younger, I got drunk a lot and used to happily flash my male friends who were not headships or anything like that my heart, my hymen and other parts of my body

-go see horror movies all the time with a girlfriend of mine. OH noes.

-I also frequently go to the movies/shopping all the time unchaperoned.

-work on my writings.....which are usually full of violence and sexy times.

-Cyber sex with a few friends of mine.

-have some sexy times without the help of a headship, if u know what I mean....

-read stuff that isn't Bible/Gothard approved.

-watch some naughty stuff on the computer that the Duggars would be afraid of.

[browngrl]

Oh no!

I am afraid that fundies would approve of my day. Mr Browngrl has been working very hard lately (and greatly deserves some pampering) so I let him sleep in while I made breakfast. After breakfast I sent him off to play on the computer while I cleaned up and did a few loads of laundry. Then I made lunch for us. After lunch I put him in front of the tv surrounded by snacks and beverages so he could watch football. I then spent time ironing/sewing buttons that had fallen off etc. I made supper and I cleaned up after supper. I let him choose the movie we will watch tonight. I rubbed his feet while he was watching football (although I did not wash them a la Katie Morton Smith). Now I have a strange desire to wear a frumpier and apron and perhaps to do some "submitting" to Mr Browngrl.

Thank goodness the rest of my life totally fails the whole Titus 31 woman directive.

[meda]

Let's see...today I went hiking with Mr. Meda while wearing pants and proper boots (no flip flops). Then we came home and he made dinner while I worked on a brief. I will attempt to reclaim my femininity by cleaning up the kitchen later. It may be a lost cause.

[SayNoToMullets]

This morning, I woke up and woke my gay male best friend, who stayed over in my apartment (where I live away from my parents and without a husband). I put on skinny jeans (defrauding!) and we walked to Andersonville (all those lesbians!), where we had breakfast and went to a feminist bookstore, and picked up copies of the Reader and the Windy City Times (liberal propaganda!). I then accompanied him to the airport, and we hugged goodbye (no touching!). I then took the train and the bus home, and Twittered and napped for most of the afternoon.

Aw...you're making me homesick, I lived in Andersonville for years and years. Breakfast at the Svea and a trip to Women and Children First, by chance?

We did go to Women and Children First, but breakfast was Ann Sather. I do love Svea, though!

[sparkles]

On the face of it, I had a very fundie-ish day. I put up 5 pints of apple butter, baked bread for the week including bagels and kaiser rolls, and I've got a banana pumpkin bread in the oven now. All nice and homey and whatnot. What makes it UNfundie-ish is that I do these things because I CHOOSE TO DO THEM, and because i ENJOY doing them, not because they're mandated by some post-it on a chore chart. Or because I've got jack all else to do.

[bellicosebroad]

Well... I think they'd clutch their pearls around me nonstop. I say (scream, shout) "fuck" or "shit" whenever I feel like it (very mad or very hurt -- banging my big toe on the fucking dishwasher the other day comes to mind -- and swearing really does help the pain, so I'm completely unapologetic about that); never wear a bra at home and only wear one ever in the summer in public if I'm in skimpy t-shirts; think critically for myself; would kick DH in the balls if he ever tried to be my headship (not that he wants to be); would refuse to do my share of the chores if DH ever got it in his head that he didn't have to do his because they're "women's work" until he caved; handle the family finances... oh, there are a lot more "fundy horror" moments in my life. They'd be in a constant swoon. :twisted:

[tropaka]

I used to paint my boys' toes with polish, back when I bothered to polish my nails. Also gave them a quick explanation when they wanted to use my maxi pads as bandages/mops - they were probably around 8 and 10, and took the news matter-of-factly.

[loveandwar]

Well, let's see.

Today? I overslept and missed church (gasp!) but woke up in time to catch the late service online. I was still wearing PJ's while I watched. (I love technology.) Of course, the fundies would not approve of my church. Too liberal. After that, I went shoe shopping for my new full-time job (GASP!!).

Recently? I started a full-time job to pay off my mountain of student loans. (2 things in 1 sentence. Go me!) I reconnected with a guy I went to public high school (!!!!!) with and I'm pretty sure he's interested in me. And if he wants to take me on a date, I will definitely say yes. (Dating! Pieces of my heart! Oh the horror!!!)

[OohLaLa]

Well, just today...

I didn't go to church today because.... I never go to church unless I'm spending the weekend with my parents.

I've been playing with smoky eye makeup lately, it's fun, but fundies would probably say I look like a hooker.

I'm watching How I Met Your Mother reruns right now.

I had sinful desires... I saw a tv spot of some movie Gerard Butler is in and my mind went straight in the gutter. He has that affect on me.

I dropped multiple f-bombs throughout the day... because I fucking felt like it

I read a few feminist blogs

I sang Bon Jovi while in the shower

Am I going to hell?

[luckystone]

Not much today. I'm wearing shorts and working on some uni work. My boyfriend and I have touched each other and talked about how there isn't a god.

[Irishy]

Jill Meagher? She lived around the corner from me. I walked in her peace march down Sydney Rd last week. Tragic, tragic story.

Jill Meagher story v sad. We know her cousins.

But are you referring to April Jones? I've been welling up all week listening to the news. My children have covered it in school and we talk about it each day. They are quite affected and unwilling to accept she may be dead.

[emmiedahl]

Wow, where do I begin?

-I did eebil schoolwork for the eebil university. And I procrastinated like hell about it: two fundie birds with one stone!

-I did random stuff related to applying to medical school.

-I took my daughter to play rehearsal. There will be singing, dancing, sassiness and all that is wrong; it is the play Annie, so that is pretty much the whole thing in fact.

-I cranked up the radio and the kids and I sang along with it. Loudly. You don't even have to be a fundie to dislike our version of Lady Gaga.

-I discussed my undying love of Tori Amos with someone on the internet, unsupervised by a headship. Also discussed my personal theories about my past lives.

-My sister came over; she is young and living with her first boyfriend to whom many pieces of heart will be given. I begged her to rearrange her work schedule so I can make it to my volunteer job on Tuesday. We shared a bottle of late harvest chardonnay. It was delicious and $2.99!!! She brought me an Obama pin that I proudly put on my purse.

-I only worked like 3 hours because it is a weekend and I feel like I should get some time to myself ffs.

-Bought food with a food stamp card and none of it was cream of crap soup. Just pasta and veggies for dinner.

Other household members' FU's:

-Baby is in a difficult toddler-ish phase and I ignored him and/or negotiated with him instead of beating him senseless.

-5 yo played with naked Barbies and found it highly amusing that they were doing various daily things in a state of undress.

-8 yo begged for purple bedding; it is his signature color.

-10 yo is in the play as described above.

-17 yo had his hawt French girlfriend over to watch a movie and they cuddled up together on the couch to do it.

-Husband made coffee and pancakes for breakfast.

The heathen life is pretty awesome. I laugh when they say we are jealous. *snerk*

You are going to hell. Unless you share your Gerard Butler with me. Mmm... nom nom nom.

[LIzzieB]

On the weekend, I went to the engagement party for a couple who have a 4 month baby. (Ebil unmarried parents)

In the wee hours of this morning, woke my partner of 10 years (with whom I live in sin) because I had a sexy dream and needed to do something about it.

In the morning, we talked about how I am going off birth control (yay!) because he is getting a vasectomy (ebil).

I went to work with several other women (ebil), ate a very healthy lunch and enjoyed the free fairy floss (cotton candy). The low part of my afternoon was receiving a call from my gay friend to tell me his dad had committed suicide. I'm sure fundies would say they are both going to hell. :(

The last part of my day was pretty fundie, I cooked a quick and nourishing soup, with homemade bread from the freezer, for my partner before he went to a class. And because he was running late, I dropped him off in the car. Unlike fundies, I didn't do this because he's my headship but because I love and care for him, and he'd do the same for me.

[Evilbad]

I'm researching the local roller derby league and considering signing up. And running a 5k this next Saturday. All while wearing crotch-defining PANTS.

I also watch porn.

[Evilbad]

Oh and I also made a fab tirimasu with WAY too much rum, but man was it good.

Jill Meagher so sad :(

Yes Irishy, April Jones. It is also being discussed in her school.

[Arete]

This morning Ahura Mahzda seems to have the upper hand.

-I have not drank

-I have not smoked today (OK, I don't smoke at all)

-I have not cursed (one of life's sublime pleasures)

-whined

-ruined my contenance with a frown

-told my male co worker how to prioritize

-put on a pair of pants

But I'm about to take my first hit of caffeine, and after that it's going to require a lot more than clean living and prayer to turn me into a Titus2 mentor.
