Sorry, I see that as calling her stupid, and fat, and ugly. If you didn't mean to call her ugly or fat, why even "say" that
Yes, you are a newbie. Problem is, you think you're a seasoned veteran. My comment was to blarg, you idiot. Mind your own business. If you didn't understand where I was coming from, then STFU!!!
Your comment may have been to blarg, but why couldn't you post it in a PM? You're the one who made it a public issue and therefore everyone's business on the forum. I notice Blarg is staying totally out of this conversation and we are the ones defending him. I find that admirable and probably what we should do as well, since ignoring comments like that is probably the best policy.
But I for one will not tolerate intolerance of any kind and I see your original "question" as that. If every sexual innuendo were taken offence to on this forum, it would quickly reach it's quota of space.
I notice Babette frequently reminding us of HER sexuality but yet you make no comment. I've commented back myself but you don't take ME to task for reminding everyone I'm a heterosexual. Heck, I even said in one post that maybe I should say I was an asexual lesbian. Now maybe you feel the need to attack me. Go for it.
And there's one more thing, young lady. YOU won't tell ME where, when, or what to post. Before you can do that, I suggest you go to night school and get your GED. Then go to college. Then spend a few decades outside the single mom on welfare world.Now go tend to that sick little girl of yours.
Oooh, guess SHE struck a nerve there. She brought out the pedantic "one more thing, young lady" persona in you. She may be a young lady, but I'm not.
How do you know she hasn't gone to college? What difference does it make if she's a single mom on welfare and tending to a sick child?
I HAVE gone to college, I AM a single mom, although not on welfare but struggling with a deadbeat ex, and I almost got fired from my job for tending to my sick children using valid vacation time I had earned (they felt it was too much time off, but I had no other option - school won't take them nor will daycare if they're sick)
Why do you feel it is germane to the conversation to bring THOSE issues up? Seems totally off the wall to me. Especially since YOU're obviously NOT a single mom on welfare.
Some of you are just plain delusional, except for Babette, who's, well, just Babette.
Sorry seems like a bash to me...
I challenge any of you to find where I bash anyone because of their race, religion, sexual preference, etc.
Maybe not race or religion, but sexual preference - by censorship - yes.
I simply asked why he feels the need to keep reminding us of his sexuality. Is it that important that we know? Did I say ANYTHING that would indicate I either like or dislike gays?
OK, if you don't understand that THIS is saying you don't like to be reminded of someone's sexuality then you should STFU yourself! If you don't see how intolerant this is then you need to check yourself. Attitudes like this are why I snatched my children out of the church we were in (oops risk getting bashed for mentioning religion) and went to one were their attitudes are NOT narrow-minded and prostheletizing.
Jenn, thanks for weeding thru the sludge and digging out the who wants what mask information.
