    I love talking about dating gone bad. I love to hear the stories and then I talk about the time my date was arrested on a date. My friends and I have amassed a lot of bad dating stories.

    I was hanging out at my best friend’s house and both our husbands were with us… Because none of us have a filter we got on the topic of bathroom habits. They are both “closed door, don’t bother me” types. My husband and I…. are not. We leave the door open all the time. This bothered her husband to the point of him exclaiming my new favorite sentence that I use all the time… “You guys need BOUNDARIES!!!!!” hahaha

    My girlfriends and I talk about how funny and weird our husbands are.

    I remember one night, my boyfriend, his brother and their roommate and I ended up talking after dinner about celebrities and what they would smell like. One of us would call out a name (ex: Janet Jackson), and the other three would call out what that person would smell like (ex: watermelon, coconut, and cigarette smoke). We were all having a great time and laughing our heads off, and after a while my boyfriend looked at the clock and said, “Can you believe we’ve been talking about this for two hours?”

    My friends and I talk about everything, even things our husbands would probably rather us keep to ourselves. that’s just not realistic. One convo centered around headaches. personally, I only have 1 sure fire cure to get rid of a headache- works every time. That cure is the big O!lol Some people pop pills but I prefer a more natural way – that release seems to get rid of whatever is causing that headache.

    We love talking movies, either good or bad.

  7. David Hollingsworth 04. Aug, 2010 at 2:48 pm #

    We all talk about how bad, stressful, and horrible our jobs are.

    We also talk about our families, sometimes wishing that we could trade them in for new ones.

    We somehow always end up on the topic of embarrassing stories. After all this time, you’d think we would run out of stories, but we manage to keep embarrassing ourselves. It feels so much better being able to talk to someone and have a big laugh over it.

  10. Margaret Smith 04. Aug, 2010 at 3:17 pm #

    I’d have to say old boyfriends and their hang ups. We’ve also had simular talks about old bosses too.
    Thanks so much.

    My group of friends and I love talking about when we were in college. We always laugh over the silly things we thought, said, and did!

  12. jessica carlson 04. Aug, 2010 at 4:33 pm #

    my friends and i were in the car talking about a funny televison show. we were remembering funny parts and laughing histariacly the whole way home.

  13. Amber G 04. Aug, 2010 at 5:46 pm #

    The most memorable thing I have talked about with my girlfriends is what is on our bucket lists.

  14. Amber G 04. Aug, 2010 at 5:48 pm #

    The funniest thing I’ve talked about with my guy friends is if they would date themselves if they were girls!

  15. Amber G 04. Aug, 2010 at 5:53 pm #

    One of the best things I’ve talked about with my mixed group of friends is how we will be there for one another no matter what

  16. Juliana A 04. Aug, 2010 at 6:45 pm #

    Me and my friend always end up talking about Mr. Wexler in high school. One second he loved us next second he was throwing magazines.

  17. Juliana A 04. Aug, 2010 at 6:47 pm #

    My and one of my good friends always laugh when we talk about Jura, my portuguese professor. Literally, the funniest professor I have ever had. He could not remember our names for anything. And for a class of 8 with students you’ve had for a year that is pretty bad.

  18. Juliana A 04. Aug, 2010 at 6:48 pm #

    Me and my best guy friend for some reason always laugh when we talk about Didier Drogba, soccer player. Because I want to cut his hair so badly!

  19. B Smith 04. Aug, 2010 at 6:58 pm #

    We love to talk about my crazy drama family!!!

  20. Misha Mathew 04. Aug, 2010 at 6:58 pm #

    Best Things -
    Every sleepover, we have a talking session where each of us share our problems and issues . We try to help each other out.

    Misha

  21. B Smith 04. Aug, 2010 at 6:59 pm #

    When I am with my girlfriends….we always usually end up talking about guys…and you know…girl stuff :)

  22. B Smith 04. Aug, 2010 at 7:00 pm #

    When I am with my kids friends’ moms…we always talk about how crazy the world is right now!!! It’s just too much!!!

  23. Misha Mathew 04. Aug, 2010 at 7:00 pm #

    Funniest-
    We talk about whatever funny things happened during a trip we had together. We laugh hysterically about it, even if it is not so funny anymore.

    Misha

  24. Misha Mathew 04. Aug, 2010 at 7:01 pm #

    On a sleepover, we talked about each other’s strengths and weaknesses. We are really honest to each other. I think that was the most memorable talk.

    Misha

  25. Emily 04. Aug, 2010 at 7:11 pm #

    We talk about how strange it is that we’re all friends because we’re so different, but at the same time, we all work just perfectly as a group. You never know who your best friends will be!

  26. MJ 04. Aug, 2010 at 7:24 pm #

    We talk about our sex lives/drive. We’ve also been known to share tips/tricks.

  27. MJ 04. Aug, 2010 at 7:26 pm #

    Our children & how they drive us nuts some (oh ok most) days ….. that said it is a given that we love them to pieces

  28. Judy Bradley 04. Aug, 2010 at 7:33 pm #

    We used to sign up for online dating sites and read the profiles out loud to each other and laugh ourselves silly over the mis-spelled words and poor grammar! The more we read, the funnier they sounded, the more we laughed.

  29. Judy Bradley 04. Aug, 2010 at 7:36 pm #

    After my girlfriends & I became parents, we would compare notes on the funny things our little ones said or did. Sometimes our sharing and laughing is what kept us from going nuts I think! LOL It was fun and I miss those times.

  30. Judy Bradley 04. Aug, 2010 at 7:40 pm #

    Now my friends & I are all grandparents and we discuss our grandchildren and compare notes on the funny things they do, and why do our children let their little ones do this or that, etc. LOL We talk about our mistakes as parents, and our hope for our children and their families. We talk about the importance of life.

  31. Elizabeth Wilkins 04. Aug, 2010 at 8:36 pm #

    Well I think we had a conversation on poop and gas for like 45 min. You know us moms!

  32. Heather Kelly 04. Aug, 2010 at 8:53 pm #

    The funniest conversation was tonight on facebook about the ways that our 2 and 3 year olds mispronounce words. My son likes Thomas the tank engine, train. He has a book that has one of the trains inside named Percy…well, now he walks around the house and playing with his trains talking about Percy, only, it doesn’t sound like Percy… Use your imagination. :) (other words the kids are messing up, clock and truck!)

  33. Heather Kelly 04. Aug, 2010 at 8:56 pm #

    My friend Elizabeth and I were chatting the other night about how both of our husbands wanted sex, and that there must have been something in the air that night… Men and sex, enough said.

    Wee I hope my first post shows up! Lol I love to talk about the silly things my hubby does with my friends. He is such a Mans Man! But he will dance around like a monkey just to make me laugh. Ha! Bet you thought I was gonna say for the kids! Nope! Cause most of the time he does it with out a stitch of clothing on! Its his go-to “cheer up his hormonal wife cause the 3month old has been crying and 4yo won’t listen” dance. Sorry hun! Your secrets out! LOL!!

  35. Gail Crawford 04. Aug, 2010 at 9:50 pm #

    The funniest story among my friends is the time, we were in the second grade and of our classmates exposed himself to me and my girlfriend.

  36. mar 05. Aug, 2010 at 12:56 am #

    i love talking about past events with friends and remembering certain nights gone wrong.

  37. mar 05. Aug, 2010 at 12:57 am #

    We also talk about exs and embarrassing moments in our lives. We all have a good laugh and never a dull moment.

  38. Melanie Bleile 05. Aug, 2010 at 2:15 am #

    For me and my mom friends, efinitely children’s bowel and tummy issues. Runny poop, poop with food in it, projectile vomiting, you name it, we have discussed it. I know,eeeewww.

  39. Melanie Bleile 05. Aug, 2010 at 2:16 am #

    With my guy friends, other women! I can be completely honest with them about what makes women around them attractive or not attractive and don’t feel the need to filter myself like I would around a woman whose feelings I wouldn’t want to hurt. Sounds bad right? But I think we all do it.

  40. Melanie Bleile 05. Aug, 2010 at 2:17 am #

    Trying to explain sex to my 9 year old daughter after she read Breaking Dawn in the Twilight Saga and wanted to know how a human and a vampire made a baby. Yikes. I’m still trying to block that out.

  41. mele 05. Aug, 2010 at 4:00 am #

    when the subject of sex came up at work. one of the girls climbed on a desk to demonstrate. that was unforgettable.

  42. Timbo 05. Aug, 2010 at 4:14 am #

    Heh, one of the best moments was when we were all out camping together, and we got around to trading stories about our fathers, actually :) There were many tales of stuff that we all did with our dads and how we enjoyed this moment or that moment, and it most us (not all of us) came to appreciate the connections we had with our dads more that evening :) It felt nice.

  43. Timbo 05. Aug, 2010 at 4:17 am #

    With my nerdy friends, we’ve covered topics ranging from the mundane to the metaphysical; from which toe was our favorite to the possibility that the universe in which we all live may in fact be a simulation (at least that’s what the math is pointing toward) :P

  44. Timbo 05. Aug, 2010 at 4:18 am #

    And finally, at a poker game a couple weeks ago, the boys and I talked about what many guys talk about: Women :)

    We all talked about our girlfriends, and some of the guys’ wives, about their little idiosyncracies, some issues that we were facing and just them generally :) It’s always a good bonding moment when we can talk about the respective women in our lives, and all the trials and travails that come along :P

  45. Angie B. 05. Aug, 2010 at 4:53 am #

    My friends and I one day read a story in the local paper about a guy who got caught masterbating by the police by his car on the river bank. We all had the best time trying to guess what song was playing in his car when he was doing this. We laughed so hard we were crying and we laughed for hours.

  46. Angie B. 05. Aug, 2010 at 4:57 am #

    Since I started watching Lost on DVD since its conclusion I have fell in love with it and we often wonder if we were on the island with them which guy/girl we’d want to hook up with.

  47. Tari L. 05. Aug, 2010 at 5:12 am #

    We talked about memories from our yearly weekend getaways, everything from seagulls pooping on one of the ladies to one of the women inviting a cross dresser to join us for a bit on the porch. The laughs never seem to stop when we get together.

  48. Ursula 05. Aug, 2010 at 6:55 am #

    We talk about the kids and how to manage the craziness.

  49. Shelley Mitchell 05. Aug, 2010 at 7:14 am #

    The strangest one was about poop and constipation. We all just stopped at one point and went EWW! what are we talking about this for! It was really funny!

  50. Patricia Treskovich 05. Aug, 2010 at 7:34 am #

    50. Break ups among boy and girlfriends
