This hits close to home.  My oldest had a Taylor Swift-themed sleepover birthday party last night.  They wanted to listen to the new album so i downloaded it, put up speakers and a disco ball and light show and decorations and photo booth and all that.  And figured, "It's a full-length album so 75 minutes from now, they'll be danced out and want to get to bed and I can still take everything down and pack it up before I hit the hay."  

Fucking thing is 31 tracks.  That's not a record, that's a fucking boxed set.  I tried to stay up once in junior high and listen to Physical Graffiti all the way through and didn't make it and I wasn't even dancing.  What the shit, Taylor?  Put a fucking parental warning label on there, "NOTICE TO PARENTS:  THIS ALBUM CONTAINS EXPLICITLY EXTENSIVE DURATIONS!"  They didn't go to bed until freakin 11:00p.  Good times, good times.

My daughters are all grown up and married now.  I miss a lot of things about having my daughters in my home, but not sleepovers. The screeching, drama, and general inanity of preteen and teenage sleepovers is not fun.

If there was an ignore or 'scroll past' feature for a 9yo girls sleepover, I'd have invented it already and been done with you broke ass bitches.  Unfortunately, some things a man's gotta deal with in real time.  

I'll give em credit though.  Half went to the skate party earlier and then to either volleyball or dance after that.  Meanwhile, I'm aching picking up balloons and shit everywhere.  

To tie it back to facebook, the moms were talking about how birthday parties were never held every year for every kid with a theme/blowout.  It's because of shit they see on facebook, youtube, tastemakers, and all that shit.  They get these ideas by "influencers" and want to immitate it.  Thankfully, my wife did it on a shoestring budget but it required a lot of elbow grease on our parts.  I knew birthdays were always a big deal for girls from 6-16, but this is fucking ridiculous.  Thanks a lot Zuckerberg.

Sounds like those weekends need: tee times, fishing poles, or another convenient excuse.

Toilet paper is not flushed in Mexico. Every bathroom has a trash can for TP. My GF refuses to flush TP here in Austin.

Well that stinks.

I conveniently go fishing whenever either of my girls has a birthday party to attend on the weekends.  But this was her actual birthday sleepover.  I'm an asshole, but there's no way I'm bailing on that.  I had to setup the tent, rig the A/V setup, deliver the pizza, serve up dessert, run the photobooth, etc.  A 'guy' plays golf during his daughter's Taylor Swift birthday party.  A Man stays home and helps.  Bonus was one of the girls saying, "And Taylor said we need to grow up and vote for women's rights...whatever that means."  Her music makes my teeth itch but she brought great joy to a birthday sleepover and if she can boost young female morale, even better.  But holy shit, I'm tired.

[thunderlounge 7866]

Birthday, ok. General sleepover? Oh hell no. 

[YGIFS 19452]

Yeah, I learned my lesson.  Birthday sleepovers only.  Otherwise, the hell with that...I'm out.  At least in the old days, they used to just taunt one another until one of them developed a mental disorder.  Now, it's just one youtube emulation after another.  

My daughter has a legit skin issue where most soaps irritate her and she has actually been hospitalized because of the inflamation/irritation.  So to take the stigma off of it, my wonderful wife made one of their three craft stations a 'soap-making' station.  So they had the basic ingredients and could then add herbs or lemon zest or botanicals and put them into molds of cool shapes like stars or diamonds or whatever.  Kinda cool, I thought.  Made my daughter less self-conscious about her skin.  So of course one of the little shitheads has to whine about how "why do we have to make soap instead of buying it from the store to make Loboette feel good about her weird rash?"  And honestly, part of me was hoping they'd all put their newly made soaps into pillowcases and beat the girl in the middle of the night, a la Private Pyle.  But instead we had cupcakes.

You do you, but smelling shit in my bathroom at all times would be enough for her to not be my girlfriend anymore.

We have separate bathrooms. Despite the fact she has a trash can full of shitty TP, she's a germaphobe and cleans her bathroom 2-3 times a week. 

I clean my bathroom only after the piles of trash/clothes turn sentient and try to ingest my feet.

And Mexican TP cans usually have a cover, so they don't really smell unless you leave it open.

If you get out of the resort towns in Mexico, you’ll find what Rage described and it surprisingly doesn’t stink.

First run in with this was stateside when I was in Cub Scouts  Our Pack leader also had an older kid in Boy Scouts and their troop was doing some exchange with scouts from Belize and so had a couple of however many boys were there staying at their house for like 2 weeks.  I'm there for a den meeting remember walking in the bathroom, it stinking like somebody died going out letting Pack Leader know and him just saying, "uh yes aware, they don't flush toilet paper in Belize and they are not breaking that habit in two weeks...we will get the trash taken out"

A lot of Mexicans do that in America. It's bizarre but understandable I guess.

My little brother was wiping his ass and putting the paper in the trash in Austin in 1992 and we called him a fuckin’ weirdo and said don’t do that anymore but I guess he was just worldly.

[deft 6856]

Be me. Sheltered anglo 17 year old male working his first job after school at H-E-B in small town Texas. As a bagger, I’m told I have to go clean bathrooms right before close at 2300.

I go yelling for my manager to ask why there’s shitty toilet paper in the wide open metal trash can next to the toilet. Big culture shock at that moment.

I wouldn't call Mexico's stone age waste management technology "worldy" unless you mean "3rd worldly"

They do it here in Angola and I know they do it in Brazil. Weird but I guess flushing it fucks up their pipes... I can honestly say I try to get in the habit of shit, shower and shave when I am here because I just can't leave shitty toilet paper in the little garbage can by the toilet. Too weird

You had a sleepover where all the kids were in bed by 11? That's a big fucking win right there

About $300 from Home Depot. Warms the seat, cleanses, warm air blower to dry.  Minimal use of Tp just to make sure. No walking around with small bits of fecal matter in Tp on your ass. Greatness.
