I'm not really a mom. "Snackers" was a college art project. The challenge was to make something out of clay that conveyed personality. Somehow he came out with a sassy smirk that tells you he's clearly up to something, so I joked that he was my first child.
I joined CC in my 20's, when the chat room was running. I was leery about creepers and figured that a pushy guy would be less likely to bother me if he assumed I was a mom. I soon learned that just refusing to share a picture is enough to do the trick, but by then there was no going back.
I remember I had some fun with it back in the day, occasionally claiming that Snackers had hacked my account if I said something snarky or if an uptight person took issue with my comments. I remember one guy was completely thrown off, demanding to know how many children I had and insisting I control them better 😂. Those were the days....😏
Anyways.... I didn't think of the "mom" part as dishonest at the time, but in hindsight I guess maybe it was 🤔. I probably wouldn't do it over again the same way, but I don't really want to change it either. Thoughts, yall? ☕🤔

I gotta admit I was thrown for a loop when I read something here on CC somewhere a while back where you said you have no kids
Love it!
