Then is “you are cordially invited to bite me and die, bitch” hyperbole?
Do you really want to ressurect that line of conversation?
I’m very flattered (but I think you might have meant Velma in this case)
I still think MissB is a rude, snarky bitch, for the record. Not illegal, I suppose. Oh well.
After scanning the first page of the Pit, I searched the Pit for “Bungle” over the past month, and came up empty.
Sorry if I’m being redundant; I did my best to avoid it, and somehow screwed up anyway. (Thanks, In Conceivable, for providing the link.)
We’ll have to disagree on that; in my OP, I’ve quoted mostly her posts before Dave invited her to ‘bite me’, and expressed my opinion about them.
MissB, I’m not exactly concerned with whether I fit in. And I don’t want you banned. But I want you to read before you provide ‘perspective’.
Also, do you know how, IRL, people tend to be more cautious and polite at first when mixing in with an unfamiliar group of people while they figure out what the ground rules are and where the bodies are buried? That’s probably not a bad idea here, either.
This is especially true in your case because your words come across as quite disparaging and critical, even in situations where you say you didn’t mean it that way. (I don’t know if I believe it, but I guess time will tell.)
This is one of the times that I hate the curtain of the internet. Quite frankly, MissBungle, normal people don’t act the way you do upon meeting other people. Normal people don’t walk into a room expecting to get kicked out for being an ass. Bored little bitches do that kind of thing. Annoying, condescending, faux-Southern-wisdom fucksticks do that sort of thing.
People who have no life do that sort of thing.
Maybe you should ask yourself would you be this way at the dinner table to people you’ve just met. Ask yourself how they’d react. Marvel with wonder at the fact that no one here can get to you, which is probably what has removed your asshole inhibitor switches. Go ahead, we’ll wait for you to leave. But you won’t.
You can’t.
I do believe MrMyth nailed that one exactly.
I salute you, sir!
While we all gossip, gripe, or generally bullshit here, this board’s mission is to fight ignorance. Can somebody please point me to one post where the subject of this thread actually tried to enlighten someone on anything?
Meh. As an effort to “put things in perspective,” that particular remark fell pretty short. I respect Hama’s prerogative not to be offended, but I found it not only offensive, but pretty lame as an argument for your attitude. I find your criterion for what “worked” baffling. I also wondered why, if you’re so anxious to contemplate perspective, you didn’t respond to my point that, unlike cancer, an avoidable and repetitive grievance is basis for legitimate complaint. Your answer to Sakura (among others) made it clear you weren’t even reading the thread, so I didn’t bother to pursue. You appear to be giving this thread more serious attention, but then, the subject is clearly more fascinating than the passing trials of some random, anonymous teen.
The problem is that it was hyperbole. MissBungle isn’t genuinely concerned about the suffering of sick children, all she wanted to do was make DAVEW0071 feel bad. And that was wrong, because DAVEW0071 had every right to be upset about the way his daughter was treated. No one should be made to feel bad for showing proper parental concern. MissBungle would have been out of line even without dragging sick children into it, but the fact that she did pushed it into the realm of the really cheap shot.
Her advice to the mother that walked in on her teenage son when he was in the bathroom, and didn’t want him to grow up was very positive.
But several people probably didn’t want to see it that way, because like a lot of her posts, she advocates taking an seemingly negitive situation and turning into a positive. Kind of a when life gives you lemons thing.
If there are 40 posts that argree with the OP, MissB sometimes offers a different point of view, that is often blunt, but never a personal attack. Even with that poster who was seeking validation.
Woa, hold on a minute. She’s not a Southerner, she just tries to type southern. Southeners have manners.
hey thanks.
I find it really interesting… I registered here 2 months ago with a different screen name. I had over 40 posts and not one complaint. (I forgot my code word so I just figured I would re register with a new handle)
I think it shows that people are seeing what they want to see. THey disagreed with me one or two times and now they read my posts with a more critical eye.
eh…vuteva
Uh oh. Sometimes it really is better to keep your mouth shut.
Miss Bungle… you had your own thread.
You’ve just lost your user privileges!
I’m sorry. You go away with nothing.

[With apologies for pre-empting any administrative decision, but the chance to use the WWTBAM reference given the thread title and MB’s revelation was way too good to pass up.]
That’s because we know that you’d just collapse into a blubbering mass of self-loathing and self-doubt. Frankly, you don’t have the backbone, as any scant reading of your feeble, floundering attempts to respond to even the mildest criticism reveals. Your tedious, overblown whining about the most trivial of life’s isses reveal that you can’t even cope with the norm, so out of kindness we restrain from responding with the obvious contempt that you so richly deserve.
hey - just kidding. You’re all good really. But beware what you wish for, lassie.

MissBungle, if you don’t want to be banned, you need to email an admin ASAP and explain the situation. Otherwise you run the risk of having both names banned as sock puppets.
Nooooo… it isn’t worth that much to me.
Just thought I’d share.
It’s been swell y’all.
I hope you all learned something from it.
Rude unto the very end. Ugh. :rolleyes:
I don’t know about you, but I learned nothing from it at all.
Nope. Not a thing. Was there something there to learn?
Oh, wait. Lesson: Don’t create sock puppets. :wally
