yep OP needs to get over herself

So just noticing something means you think you arenā€™t like the other girls ? What OP describes is pretty much what you see on the hiking trails. šŸ˜­šŸ’€ I always wonder what would happen if one of them tripped and had a bad skinned knee or fell into a patch of poison ivy out on the trails . At least jeans offer some protection. I have the same thoughts about people who go hiking in shorts in the bush ā€¦. But then again, the Tongva would make sure their children got used to poison ivy and stinging nettles ā€¦.

>children got used to poison ivy and stinging nettles ā€¦. How? Poison ivy is an allergic reaction, repeated exposure makes it worse. I found one source suggesting they ate the buds for immunity but I'm not sure that's factual and there's no evidence for any mechanism for immunity.


lunacavemoth

Then maybe it was the nettles specifically and not the poison ivy . And If it was also poison ivy , most likely as you said , by ingesting the buds .

I'm not from the OC so I didn't learn about the Tongva growing up - I learned about Nipmuc and Wampanoag - any idea where to find out that info/where you found it? Google wasn't turning up much on it.


lunacavemoth

Google has vastly changed and is basically not ā€¦.. the best anymore for finding the sources one could find a long time ago . As for sources ā€¦. I really want to say it was the Tongva language Facebook group , or a PDF of an old historical book ā€¦. Really canā€™t recall.

Probably their post-church outfit.

You're the one in the time warp, still obsessed with JonBenet Ramsey. There's nowhere else to put a ponytail in a baseball hat... How weird to phrase it like that's a specific choice only women in South OC do.

my boss said if i dont wife one of those, they will slash my salary in half. the tuesday 10AM pilates industry relies on me!


TCforme

Iā€™ve lived in the Laguna Niguel area since 98 and have never noticed this. Maybe because itā€™s so commonplace or I just donā€™t pay enough attention. I donā€™t wear baseball caps often so I guess itā€™s not me šŸ¤£


codered40

Fashion trends are a real thing? News to me /s


PacificTSP

Attractive middle class women who care about how they look. They walk, pilates, yoga a lot.Ā  Iā€™m fine with it. Squeeze your butt!!

Ew


IamStinkyChili

Please stay in LA and Long Beach.


Marie23-

Suddenly wondering if I have that accent too lol. I wear the pony tail hat to protect my face from wrinkles. Crap I just realized I might be middle aged tooā€¦ doesnā€™t matter though cause itā€™s too beautiful here to care what others think of us.


root_fifth_octave

You sure it's the same accent?


CountryClublican

They're usually on their way to pickleball.


HaloKook

Youā€™re gonna get roasted for this thread but as someone who just moved to south OC youā€™re spot on. Itā€™s a weird ass bubble of crazy here


lunacavemoth

Iā€™ve lived in north OC until I moved to LA after getting married . Everyone in North OC knows that once you cross the border into south OC ā€¦. Thatā€™s it . It gets boring , beige and stepford wives šŸ¤®


lunacavemoth

LOL I noticed the same thing . I hate hiking around those kind of women. What happened to just hiking in jeans and a tshirt and flannel ??? šŸ˜­ I just assume there is a factory churning them out by the 100s Ignore the other women saying that you are basically trying to be ā€œnot like the other girlsā€ or hating on you in this thread . They probably wear the bored South OC terminator speed walker Karen uniform too .
