I'm all for honest debates and sharing the differences of opinions. Name calling for the sake of name calling of others just reminds me of middle school. Major understatement - I totally agree! If you can't get your point across without lowering yourself to the gutter level, at least exercise a little self control. Don't bite the bait that others throw out at you. Ignore your enemies - it really does drive 'em crazy. I'm thinking the block option here is going to be a well-used tool!

Did you happen to see what Yubon wrote to me on the S/O live to 100 thread GaJenny? if so, then maybe you'd understand. Have a nice day! No I didn't see it. But your words are absolutely no better. So now you're in the same camp as Yubon. Congratulations! On this thread, I'm simply pointing out the hypocrisy of the joy of being rid of the "mean girls", all while being pretty "mean girl'ish" yourselves. OSU this PVM is bullshit. You called Yubon a "raging cunt" on the S/O live to 100 thread. Your post on that thread about your MIL came off to some of us as pretty damn heartless...sorry that's just a fact...whether you meant it to sound that way or not. Then you proceeded to try to justify your first post with a second post making your MIL's Alzheimers all about YOU and what an irritation and inconvenience she is for YOU and damn your DH for not realizing it's not about MIL's feelings or his feelings, it's about YOU. Alzheimers is hard, dementia is hard, traumatic brain injuries are hard, CP is hard, Autism is hard, cancer is hard, being a supportive family member is hard. You made yourself look really bad with your lack of compassion for your MIL. Yubon didn't do that - you did that!

I wonder if some of the angry/mean Peas felt compelled or obligated to participate in that way because it fit the label they had been given... Not saying it wasn't their choice or in their control, but I also don't think they'd make that choice unless they were getting something out of it... A lot of those Peas were articulate, kept up on the issues, had a sense of wit... If they said something 'soft', they would've been called out on that... I can't imagine the 'pressure' they put on themselves to always make the sharpest dig etc... I'm guessing they're either enjoying the forced break from that or have come back and started fresh... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk I think that some of those who "earned" (tic) a reputation where given those honors by others who read into what they thought someone said. There were so many things attributed to certain people but if you read what they actually wrote it was not like that at all! It's like that game kids play where they say some thing and repeat it to each person in the circle and inevitably it gets messed up and twisted. Uhhh Papepcraft Addict did you uhhhh steal my avatar??? I might just have to leave this board for like EVAH!!!

Well, to answer the OP, I think you now have your first hissy fit, courtesy of OSUbuckeyefan on the S/O of living to 100 thread. She is making herself look like an ass, and didn't need any help from me to do that.
Lord help her MIL.

What I want to know is why so many people have the same kiwi avatar. Makes it difficult to distinguish between posters at a glance. It's so much more prominent than the name.

It's the default one, for folks who haven't chosen one of their own. I agree makes it very hard sometimes to remember who said what or to follow a thread.

Edited to add - Ok...so I read your exchange with Yubon on the live to 100 thread...and it only reinforces my opinion that you are no better than Yubon.
I just really wanted to uses that gif.
