Meet The Peas

Like in most communities there are 3 groups of people:

• Those that everyone knows
• Those whose name rings a bell
• Those who are just there

2 peas is no different so I thought I should start by filling everyone in on the whose who of 2 peas.

Darlin_Nikki - The resident lesbian pea. I would put Nikki at the top of the pea list, but only because the other top peas such as Nurse Kitty, Ashley Nicole no longer seem to be around. I see Nikki as being the attention hungry pea as well. In school she would be the girl with the fish net stockings, short tight mini skirt and a belly shirt. The guys all want to sleep with her and the girls all want to kill her.

Mary Mary - The trans-gender pea. I think Mary Mary used to be Marty Marty and although her sex change might be fully complete, I think she was misinformed about the whole procedure. A sex change does not include getting a uterus and poor Mary is lashing out from the pain she experiencing of not being able to have a uterus. On a side note, I am pretty sure the ski mask picture was a result of an early face surgery gone horribly wrong. I think the peas have yet to see an actual picture of her so perhaps the problems couldn't be fixed. No matter how much surgery you get you just can't make an ugly mans face look like a believable face of a woman.

keriwest- The girl every pea wants to be. 'Nuff said.

tande- The under medicated pea. School bus drivers and superintendents beware. If you mess with Tande or her 'special needs' child then you better have your over active defense sheild on. Tande needs to focus less on her child's special needs and more on her own. In 30 years I see Tande living alone in a dirty house and talking to the 100 cats she has trying to get them to validate her crazinesss. Happy pills can be a good thing and Tande needs a double dose.

Cara in TX- The It's my turn pea. Keriwest has built and furnished her house that everyone oohed and aaaahed over and now Cara wants that attention turned over to her. She started to slip into the background a little after the whole "Lauren picks on 'special' kids" ordeal so she took the chance at stealing back some spotlight.

Anewday- The I'm not the same person pea. AKA Lauren. Anewday is pea that most other peas have a love-hate relationship with. Peas love her for her upfront honesty and having the balls to say whats on her mind rather than pussy footing around the 'queens' of the board. Peas also love to hate her for the very same reasons- once that honesty is directed towards peas that are well known and liked. After a particularly rough thread she left the board (or perhaps she was removed) and a week later comes back with this new name as though she had some spiritual healing during the week she was gone and is back as 'a new' person. Nice try though.

**Susan** - The high and mighty pea. Susan thinks she has an answer for everything and although her response might come off as helpful or caring to the average person, most pea's know better. Susan has a nack for remaining calm while she belittles you in argumentative threads in ways that sometime sneak under the raidar. She responds to many people as though she is the only adult in a room full of high school freshmen making her better than every one else.

Miss Jen - The please don't hate me pea. Jen never wants to get on anyone's bad side. Even though she might strongly disagree with the behavior of some of the popular pea's she always makes sure to voice her opinion in such an abused step child kind of way that you almost have to look right past her because you feel bad for her. She is kind of like the lonely kid on the playground that wants to please the cool kids in order to be accepted, yet still manages to get her voice in on something in a sly way.

rahopkinsiii - The man creature pea. I have no idea why the hell this guy is on a scrapbooking message board with a bunch of women. I know his attempts at humor suck though.

Slower Joe - The closet pea. Joe started out as slow Joe and changed his name after being deleted from the board for using it as www.1800.com site. Poor Joe can't seem to find a good woman to get involved with. I would have to take a guess and say it is because he hasn't found a woman who can love him more than he already loves himself. So while he is still looking he takes advantage of the cyber molestation from the women at 2 peas. That way his ego is getting fed and there are no strings attached. Personally I think it's all an act. He screams homosexual and it should be no surprise that the first person he hits on at 2 peas is a lesbian.

paigepea - Peas first ever mom. I thought the endless posts about being pregnant would be over once the baby came, but 6 months later we are being informed of every little burp the baby has. I want to bang my head against the wall every time I see one of those titles like "my baby pooped in her diaper, come see!!!".

Don't worry if your name wasn't mentioned here. If you are someone worth mentioning then your name will appear at some point and time.

Introduction

Are you not a big fan of message boards? Well then you are really missing out on a hot spot. 2 Peas In A Bucket is a scrapbook based website that is just as well know for their NSBR (non scrapbook related) message board as they are for their online store. 2 Peas is number one on every scrapbooking top 100 list on the net as well mentioned in several scrapbook publications. Yeah, their site is good, but would probably be nothing with out the colorful ladies of the NSBR board. These woman share their experiences with the cyber world on everything ranging from having a hang nail to just short of admitting murder. Well, there was that one recent online suicide attempt which would have cut it very close to murder had it been true. You get the point thought. These women share it A-L-L.
So you think a group of women, online community, sharing life- what a wonderful experience this place must be. You couldn't be more wrong. These women are vicious with a capital V. The claws come out on a daily bases and in some situations it could take days before the hairballs stop flying. But not to worry, the cat fighting never stops for long. If one fully peaceful day goes by on the site it is a rarity. And if there isn't any fighting going on it's because there is just a lot of self absorbed whining happening. They say women who are together a lot start to have their periods in synch with each other. I think this totally applies in the cyber world. If a cyber midol could be invented, 2 peas would be the place to market it.

So here it is. A blog that will gradually explain the workings of the 2 Peas In A Bucket NSBR message board as well as give summaries of the days action. And of course a blog wouldn't be a blog with out the authors personal opinions and I don't plan to disappoint you. This blog is the perfect place to come to if you are interested in the soap opera, but don't have time to follow the fast action pace of the board. Or if you have tried to follow along, but just get too overwhelmed by all that is going on there. Think of this place as the highlight reel. Oh, and let's not forget the those who have hairflipped (this term will be explained in a later entry). You can check in on all the action here - you know, for those 8 hours you are able to keep yourself away from the board before the urge to go back gets the better of you.

Now add me to your list of sites to visit everyday and sit back and enjoy the show. Have your popcorn ready before you start. You aren't going to want to leave until it's over.
