Top 10 Signs That Your Teenager Threw a Party

August 2, 2008 · Filed in List All, Bizarre, Quick Lists · Comment 

10. The following Saturday cars loaded with kids keep cruising by your house.

They slow down with hopeful facial expressions until they see you peering through a crack in the curtains and then they speed off.

9. You go to get a glass of water before bed and all of your glassware is missing.

Several ‘Big Gulp’ cups are in their place.

8. Your pot stash is missing.

Either that or it suddenly smells like oregano

7. Even a growing teenager can’t eat eight large pizzas in two nights.

So what’s with all the pizza boxes? And who paid for it?

6. You find a dried up puddle of vomit behind your couch a few weeks later.

Of course your kid could have just been sick from eating eight large pizzas…

5. You suddenly have a much higher threshold for alcohol.

Not to mention the liquor in your bar looks faded and tastes, well, watery.

Top 10 Reasons Why Ex-Party Girls Make Great Mommies

July 12, 2008 · Filed in List All, Humor, Quick Lists · 3 Comments 

Welcome to our latest addition of Quick Lists, top 10 lists submitted by our readers that are either more personal or a quicker read than our longer lists. We hope you enjoy this list by Tanya Bennett and her top 10 reasons why ex-party girls make great mommies.

1. You are used to staying up all night.

Just consider all of that late night partying as endurance training for the first few months (possibly years!) of parenthood.

2. You’re not fazed by everyone staring at your boobs all the time.

They used to look because of your push up bra and tight top. Now they may be looking because you’re leaking milk or because you put Dolly Parton to shame. Whatever the reason, it’s unreasonable to expect eye contact from people.

3. if you don’t have vomit on your clothes, you’re just not having a good time.

At some point early in parenthood you will just give up on the mountain of laundry and wear your various stains like the proud badges of parenthood they are. Similarly, in the old days you had more important things on your mind than a few barf stains, like who finished that bottle of tequila?
