[QUOTE=Una Persson] Well…in all honesty, folks, she is being Pitted and having multiple people come after her with criticisms. I see nothing wrong with posting in response to the many people here who are directly and indirectly addressing her. If she didn’t respond so much, I cannot help but believe there would be people asking why she was “ducking the question,” “refusing to answer,” etc. My posting rate is down to less than once a day over the last year, but if I was being Pitted by numerous people as in this case, I’d likely be trying to respond to as many as possible too. And she’s even combined responses to several people in single posts on multiple occasions - IMO a true attention whore would have an individual post for each and every person, several side-posts mocking Bush’s personal appearance, and who knows, maybe some cat-related posts as a capper. [/QUOTE] You are right…I don’t blame her for having a lot of posts in this thread. It might cut down on the time she spends posting, though, if she would be more direct and stop leading people around in circular arguments. The whole bit about the gender thread was just silly. Just go back, read the thread again, and admit that you misrepresented what it said. Say you were mistaken. Say you read it quickly & missed the point. Say whatever, but don’t spend post after post arguing about something so obvious. ---

[QUOTE=Jodi] _Really_? How delicious! [/QUOTE] I’d say tragic, really. Considering who she was when she posted here, she must have had to process an astonishing amount of self-loathing before she got to the point where she could come out. I can’t bring myself to gloat over something like that. It’s not an experience anyone deserves. On the other hand, I can and will gloat over that bigotted shit **Joe Cool** losing his wife to another woman. That completely fucking rocks. ---

[QUOTE=Lama Pacos] I like **Quiddity**. I can’t point to specific examples, but in my experience she usually comes across in her posts as very intelligent and funny. She lacks the bloviating tendencies and bizarre lack of self-awareness that a lot of Dopers seem to have. [/QUOTE] This is the funniest post in the entire thread. ---

[QUOTE=Giraffe] You don’t have to tell me. I’m constantly having to hide my light under a bushel basket in order to be so likable to the mouthbreathing dullards I’m surrounded by. But don’t waste your time being in pain, instead just be happy. Life’s too short to care what anyone else thinks, plus they’re all jerks.

[QUOTE=Una Persson] Well…in all honesty, folks, she is being Pitted and having multiple people come after her with criticisms. I see nothing wrong with posting in response to the many people here who are directly and indirectly addressing her. [/QUOTE] Sure, and I agree. However, bear in mind that this is a person who has consistently and loudly insisted that she doesn’t give a damn what us “pixels on a screen” think or say about her. If you don’t detect a trace of irony here, then what can I say, you probably need to check the polarity on your irony meter. 😉 ---

[QUOTE=Qadgop the Mercotan] Thanks for the closure. If true (and I’m not doubting you, just using ordinary skepticism about things that are out and about on the net) it’s not a big surprise. Many folks embrace rigid belief systems in order to ‘fix’ some unwanted tendency/trait in themselves. [/QUOTE] Yes, that was exactly my thought as well. I’m very sorry for the highjack. ---
