I wondered what the hell that was all about. I know ~ when I first logged on and all I saw was birthday threads I thought *Holy Crap, Gia LuPeaA broke the board*!

I participate on a message board on another site for people who are infertile/doing IVF. I roll my eyes on a daily basis because they have a rule that if you are going to mention a positive pregnancy test, a miscarriage, or the fact that you have given birth in the past, you have to put ***Trigger Warning*** before you type anything about the child/miscarriage/positive test. I mean, if someone has a long drawn out story about a traumatic loss, by all means warn people. But do we really need flashing lights and warning bells before mentioning that you have a kid at home? To each their own, but this seems totally over the top ridiculously oversensitive to me. But I can't say anything there because maybe there *are* women on there who would freak out if they saw a post about someone having a child. I mention my nieces/nephew on occasion (without the warning sign), but haven't gotten any flak for that so far....

My snark is this geannak person bumping ALL the bday threads?? like WTF??? I am going to guess someone wants a thread pushed off the front page. My guess goes to the watermelon thread. Why would my thread with a dumb watermelon picture need to be bumped off the first page?

Good grief whiny fb woman. Have some self respect. Saying "thanks to so an so and such and such for helping me get my house ready to sell. And pooh on the ones who didn't bother to show up" on the internet for all to see is not a way to endear yourself to others. Your CONSTANT whining and begging for others to do every little thing for you is ridiculous.
And OP, I've got some selfie sadies in my life too. So pathetic.

Schadenfreude, not snark.
Your "purebred golden doodle" you traveled to another state for because it's "hypoallergenic" is giving you hives.
Serves you right for going off on me when I pointed out there is no such thing as a hypoallergenic, purebred mixed breed dog back when you put the deposit down on the puppy. And told me visiting shelters and fosters to see if different dogs made your allergies flare or not that would be a safer, more reliable way to try a dog, maybe foster first, was ridiculous and you would of course be allergic to mangy rescue dogs and too traumatized by shelter visits.
Sadly since the breeder will take it back but not refund this twatwaffle, she has to be rehomed. Which is a situation anyone could have seen coming and I was trying to help her avoid.
I hope the hives are itchy as hell.

Oooh, I love snark! Coworker: No one respects you because you are always late, every shift; because you take coffee breaks, cig breaks, bathroom breaks, and crying-jag breaks when we are busting our asses. Not to mention you go visit other parts of the building to visit with your friends, instead of just focusing on what you need to be doing. Other coworker: I'm sorry that your dental health is at a crisis, but please, please, don't pull your lips back to show me your gaping gum hole where another tooth fell out last night. I just can't handle it.

When you're off on your fourth holiday this year, to your own boat this time, leaving us 'staff' to keep your business running on a day to day basis, I struggle to summon up any sympathy for you when you complain that money is tight and your suppliers are giving you a hard time because you're not paying your bills in a timely fashion

(Me saying to myself) Are you really not finished grieving yet? Seriously crying every day still? It's been 3 months. You had a whole year to grieve. Get over it already. And back it starts again. Sorry, it's more of a vent. Delta Dawn. Would you say that to me? Get over it? Show yourself the same grace you show me. This Thursday will be one year since my Fred died. While I'm not crying every day, my heart hurts. It's ok to feel it. Avoiding the pain is what got me into trouble around the 6 and 7th month mark. Don't make the same mistake I did.

To the mom who was BAWLING to me about the fact that her "life was going to change sooooo much" because she is going to school over the summer and she didn't know how she would "ever recover" from not being with her girls over the summers anymore. I wanted to say, "Bitch please find someone else to cry to about that fact and think about the fact that less than 4 months ago you were at my daughter's funeral." But instead I just looked at her, nodded my head and said, "I really think all of you will be okay," and just kept smiling with I am sure and dazed look on my face! No she did not!!!!! I am so sorry. That is beyond thoughtless.

"Listen, bitch. Nobody here likes you and my grandma kicked you out of her room and told you to never come back last year when you were saying that none of my dad's kids were doing anything and that your daughter was the only one who cared about what was going on with my dad. So why on earth are you at her 100th birthday party AND camped out as close as you could get to her? So we won't go over there? You're why my sister didn't come - she had figured you would find out about the party and show up."
No, I didn't say it yesterday, but I sure thought it really hard. The whining of Spawn of Satan (aka the beast my dad was married to) to my grandma was when my dad first went into the hospital for his surgery. Sure her daughter went with my dad to some of his appointments leading up to the surgery - that's why none of us had a good handle on what all was going on because she's a moron. Dad turned down all my offers of going with him even though I said I had plenty of time off to do it (and would even if I didn't have the time off) until the doctors got to a point where they were talking surgery, then he let me do the assisting. Oh, and he lived with said moron and her DH so they should have been able to keep him from getting dehydrated and put in the hospital TWICE that summer.
If I had gone to the party yesterday by myself, I would have gone up to my Nanny, told her happy birthday, turned to SoS and said WTH are you doing here, and left to drive the 4 hours back home. Since my DD and her BF were with me, I didn't, and endured an hour and a half of evil in the room before heading back.

Looking up your old boyfriend on FB, hooking back up with him and then divorcing your husband to marry the old boyfriend makes you a home-wrecking cheater no matter how much you deny it.

Oh, and more snark! "Congratulations on your new job. We're going to miss you here." I'm practicing saying this without cracking up so I can say it to "whiny girl" aka my minion who had 'personal business' on Wednesday and something on Friday where he left at lunchtime (without finishing all the tickets he needed to get done before they hit 30 days open, AGAIN, that I have to answer to on Monday morning) that he obviously had told our tech manager about but not me as lead. My guess is he was interviewing because I know he hasn't been thrilled with things lately (but most of that is his own doing, like signing the job offer for the new contract then taking it home to let his wife read - she pointed out he took a pay cut ad he was not happy). If he thinks that him leaving will leave us in a lurch, he can think again. I'm past tired of carrying his load and mine and management not doing anything about it. He was even on a 'performance improvement plan' on our previous contract (from what I heard through the grapevine - I'm tech and not personnel so I am not privy to these things nor do I want that headache); unfortunately it started the LAST week of the contract and didn't carry over (nor were the new companies on the new contract told about it since it was a company HR thing). The previous company had plenty of time to take action since the main events triggering any action occurred in freaking March - not to mention all the times he comes in at 10 (and I've been there anywhere between 2 and 4 hours by then) or the fact that while I was out for a month with my dad he didn't pick up the slack and was out for one reason or another for half that time (which I found out about after I got back to over 100 open tickets all hitting age warnings). Okay, so mine are combination snark and vent.

I dont know if this is snark or just me bitching, but man. I have a good friend who is in her late 20's with two kids. She posts no less than 10 photos a day of her girls, and she is constantly blessed, cherishing this moment, etc. etc. Every. Single. Day. ALL DAY LONG. Well now she bought her a Canon Rebel and is now advertising herself as a photographer. While her kids are cute - she is no photographer by any stretch. But now she has a watermark and logo so she is legit. I just want to tell her, Sister: buying a camera does not make you a photographer anymore than me buying toilet paper and calling myself a plumber. This x1000! I swear everyone who buys a DSLR nowadays thinks they are a professional photographer with a watermark and a logo. I have about 10 of these in my newsfeed. Lots of pictures of babies wrapped in netting on a bed of feathers. It must be an easy way to make money without any formal training or education. Not to say there aren't lots of talented photographers out there that never had formal training but it's so saturated with the hobbyist turned professional.

Ugh! I'm in a FB group where the same thing applies. I think it's a bit much. I mentioned that they post pictures of their husbands as well. What if I said that's too uncomfortable for me to see because I'm single? Just deal already.

No-one would hold it against you if you actually DID say what you were thinking. Well, except perhaps the thoughtless bitch. If I had been there I would for sure have said something on your behalf.

I posted a pic of Fred and I and ds11 on Facebook. It was a sweet moment I shared from the morning after we found out Fred's chemo stopped working. We were spending time together on the couch and ds11 squished his way between us for a cuddle. I titled the picture #morningbreathselfie. This one woman I complained about before did it again. "Jenn, Frederick looks different there, like it's someone else there with you and Logan"
Really? Really??? What do you expect, it was 3 weeks before he died! Stop saying stupid insensitive stuff!! And stop calling him Frederick, it wasn't his name! And just for the record I don't like Jenn spelled with 2 N's either.
I just let it go and changed my settings so she doesn't see what I post. She's the kind of person who doesn't have a mean bone in her body but doesn't pick up social cues. If I explained why I keep getting hurt by her comments she wouldn't get it anyway. One of his best friends would call him Frederick but it was purely because he didn't like it. I kind of wanted him to post "I'm the only one who gets to call him Frederick!" but talked myself out of it before I gave him the go ahead.

We received our fourth visit in ten months from the Mormon missionaries today, even after we've asked them each time to note in their area information that we have happily left the church and DON'T want further contact. I'm about to contact the local leadership and the mission president, but then I'd probably just be written off as a miserable apostate. It's not the ex-Mormons who can't leave the church alone . They might construe your contact with them (your complaint) as "count me in!!!" Or that they see you as a challenge and send another crew that is more hard core. Lol!! We have private "property posted" and groups still come, I just let my dog get to the door first!

My snark is this geannak person bumping ALL the bday threads?? like WTF??? That person just signed up an hour ago. WTH? Seems a little trollish. Lol I hadn't noticed it, but will now be suspicious of them. Their possible plan to boost thread count might have backfired! My snark is about a mom in our wider group who has decided to chastise another mother's children. Okay, when they were 1-12. Not cool, sending 16 and 18 year olds texts about how they're tweeting about an emergency in their family. She tries to justify it, but I think their Dad is aware. I can't explain more in case others read here. She has "perfect girls" and doesn't get the "messiness" that sometimes happens as teen boys learn to deal with their emotions. laying on a community guilt trip, on the name of their mother won't help. My sons are livid, my DH is about to call her and complain.

Having an RV does not equal glamping. We logged more miles in the past four days on foot and by bike than you probably did in the last five years, so stuff your glamping bullshit in a sack, jealous moron.

We are trying to sell a lake property, and the questions I have been getting are crazy! There are so many snarky answers I would love to give, but I have been nice and polite in hopes that maybe it will make the sale.
And to the person who has 4 kids and their wife is pregnant with number five, and they really want to buy it, but they're budget just doesn't allow it, no I will not lower the price for you. My budget doesn't allow me to sell it at a huge loss just because you think your family deserves to buy it. Perhaps maybe somebody else in your family would buy it for you since you deserve it so much!! I have told you multiple times my lowest selling price, no matter what sad story you come back with I will not lower my price for you. And really, it is a two-bedroom cabin. I'm sure you probably could fit all of you in there, but it would be pretty cramped, and I'm not sure how well a newborn would enjoy being there.
And for the last time, it is in a resort, it is not an investment property!!! No, you cannot tear it down and build a bigger cabin, you cannot add a guest house, you cannot have 10 campers with all of your extended family staying with you, it is a resort! It is a place for you and your family to eat, sleep, shower, and a place to dock a boat or two. It is a gorgeous property, the lake is beautiful, it is quiet, and I quite love it there. It is something to enjoy for what it is! ( and in case someone questions me, yes you can have as many guests as you want, but they have to stay in the cabin with you, or maybe a tent or two.)

Worker at Wal-Mart ~ there's no way you didn't see me standing there while you chit chatted with the other woman. I was less than two feet from her. At least you acknowledged me after I walked away (to find another non-existent worker) and came back.
I didn't respond when you said this department doesn't even belong to you, it belongs to the employee that walked behind me while you were ringing me up, even though you looked to me for a response.
I ignored you when you then said he walks around like he doesn't have a care in the world, even when you looked to me for a response.
But when you said they he was completely oblivious to what was going on around him, I had to respond. I said you realize that you ignored me when I was standing here before, right? She stammered and started to say something about it not being her department (she was at the register when I walked up). I then said you shouldn't be saying someone is oblivious to what is going on around them when you are doing the exact same thing. She got pissed, handed me my bag, and turned away.
You want to bad mouth co-workers, have at it, BEHIND CLOSED DOORS. You should NEVER, I don't care what they have done, bad mouth a co-worker to a customer.
