Woohoo, we’ve got an accusation of offenderatti, a Monday morning quarterbacking where we dissect someone’s decision to have a child 17 years ago, and a troll accusation. With the free space I just need a fighting ignorance or maybe a “perfect master” or “smartest people on the internet” to have a Straight Dope Bingo!!! crosses fingers
All kidding aside, I think most of you knew (at least I hope Darth Panda did because he’s never struck me as dumb) that I meant that gms453 was insinuating that it is 100% the fault of the woman who “allowed” herself to be impregnated. Of course both the man and the woman are responsible, do we really have to say that here on a board of big girls and boys who know how reproduction works? His question over and over and over again was worded to blame her entirely (as in 100%) for her pregnancy. I guess I figured I didn’t have to be that specific in my wording. I should know better, though.
I am especially not concerned with explaining anything to you as you have clearly demonstrated you are a bonafide crazy person and I don’t say that lightly. I’m bad with names around here and you’ve said enough straight up batshit stuff in my time here that I remember that you are actually crazy. So, run along and don’t try to shake my hand on the way by me.
As far as anyone else is concerned about this topic, I get it. I understand why people feel the need to ask “WHY?” when it comes to why someone would be with someone they thought was a loser. The only thing I can say is that we all make mistakes and I guess I don’t understand what the benefit is of ripping on Foxy40 now for stuff she can’t change. Yep, it was dumb. Yep, she should have known better. It sounds like she’s done the best she can since then, so why the continued harping on what happened before that cannot be changed now except to be gleeful reveling in “I WOULD NEVER BE SO STUPID!”
But, I gotta say, on a board full of threads where people ask the most stunted, inane, and jaw dropping questions on basic human interaction and social situations let alone the multitude of relationship threads that make me wonder WTF!?!?, it’s mighty funny to see how so many people don’t understand how someone could make a relationship mistake when they were young. Why did she go ahead and have the child? Who knows? Maybe she doesn’t believe in abortion, maybe she felt guilty, maybe she wanted a kid and figured she’d go ahead, maybe she thought she could change him, I have no idea and I guess I don’t care. I also don’t get why anyone else does, but YMMV.
If the smartest people on the internet get themselves impregnated by bums then the rest of humanity is retarded. If Foxy40 didn’t want to be impregnated she could have had an abortion thusly it is 100% her fault for getting impregnated. If a guy has no say in whether a female is allowed to murder his child then he should have no fault for getting the bitch pregnate in the first place.
And Drunky Smurf comes through with smartest people on the internet.
I HAVE A STRAIGHT DOPE BINGO! confetti
ETA: Unfortunately my prize is probably lunch with the new “I’m Gary Glitter” troll that Twickster can’t even figure out is pulling her leg. sad trombone
Are you kidding? You’ve already got ZPG Zealot and curlcoat posting in the same Pit thread. That’s a 95% guarantee that this is about to degenerate into a spitting, writhing ball of fury and fun within 24 hours.
Or, what he meant was why did she have a baby by a bum? You do know that after the fetus is conceived, every choice after that is all the woman’s (thank god).
Probably because she is gleefully reveling in how badly she gets to screw over her soon to be ex. Apparently, the only reason she married him is because she got pregnant, so that causes the focus to be back then.
If you keep posting like that, it certainly will. Me, I’ve been posting in this thread for almost those 24 hours and no spitting or writhing to be seen. Except for assholes like you, it’s been an amazingly civil Pit thread.
I’m always glad to see you here trying your hardest to make the world a better place! Once again, how would having the answer to that help the situation today? If she drops to her knees and says “Curlcoat, please forgive me for being stupid when I was young and having a child with a bum!” would you be satisfied? At this point in time where time machines do not exist, what good does it serve to continually harp on this one point? I mean what point besides you getting to feel smug about your choices in life?
I see someone who is frustrated and feels guilty about how her child has allegedly been treated by the father and is glad she had the presence of mind to have a prenup. You read the words and saw one thing, I read them and saw another. I bet neither one of us can even guess at all of the reasons for all of it because (hold on to yourself curly) you can’t know someone’s character, reasons, and all about their lives by a few paragraphs about a topic.
I mean, if that was the case then it would be fair to paint you as someone who is trying to scam the government out of disability payments you don’t really deserve because you’re not really disabled. For the record, I don’t believe that. Many people here have decided that about you based on a few threads. Not fun, is it?
Let me guess: Right after you submitted this post you stomped out of the room in a huff, locked yourself in your bedroom, and refused to talk to anybody for the next four hours.
Why the fuck didn’t your parents smother you in your crib, so we hard-working folks wouldn’t be forced to give up our money to keep your withered ass sucking air year after year?
Apparently they were too stupid to foresee you’d end up a net drain on society, caterwauling about your neighbors’ specks while straddling your own stinking log.
