I just didn’t want your healing party to end. it’s cute. now let’s get to the important stuff, shall we? should I be beheaded or burned alive? what do the teeming millions think… ---

I’ve been here for 2 1/2 years with 2700 posts, and I still think nobody reads my posts. ::sniff:: I guess that’s the problem with trying to be diplomatic and reasonable. Of course, I can say just about anything I want and nobody seems to notice that, either. 😃 \*\* Oh…Sorry…what did you say? ---

Yeah, **djf** , I thought I’d heard something, too. I guess it was just the wind. No, really, **featherlou** posts some great stuff. I was especially fond of your pre-wedding rants. I wanted to round them all up in one massive e-mail and send them to my mother with a note: You wanna know why we’re not having even a semi-traditional wedding? It’s _this horseshit, right here_! That’s why. I ain’t putting up with it. Hijack? What hijack? What are you people talking about? ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Hamadryad \* > \*\*Huh. > > I went back and read her posts (and anyone’s response which came up when I hit “Edit/Find/Bungle”), and I have yet to see **anything** which could be construed as a _personal attack_ on anyone. \*\* Looked in my pit thread lately, **Hama**? If that’s not a personal attack, I don’t know what is. I know you wrote your post before it hit the fan in my thread, but it’s there just the same. To be honest, I wasn’t aware of **MissBungle** before my thread. My activity on the board was skimming for most of February, so I missed a lot. But my introduction to her was as an abrasive, uncaring individual. What she said was true (as she pointed out), but her post oozed condescension. It wasn’t _what_ she said, it was _how_ she said it. > [@](#): > > It’s a good freakin lesson for a kid to learn …_snip_ …and for those who think it’s just horrible… I once heard about a child getting cancer. That’s just not nice. I don’t mind anyone disagreeing with me, but I’ve never cared for the type of post that is little more than running in and peeing on the carpet. Usually it’s a drive-by, when someone has a knee-jerk reaction, jumps in with a “Bush is a turd!” and then leaves. **MissBungle** has taken it to point where she comes in, pees on the carpet, then stands there smiling, expecting a pat on the head and a cookie. To cast aspersions on my parenting ability…sorry, that’s way out of line, and an **extremely** personal attack. ---

Hey, we were talking about _ME_! When did all this other stuff creep in? Did someone say chicken vindaloo? ( **CrazyCatLady** , I had forgotten all about those wedding rants. I think I’ll put them all in a document and **Dread Pirate Jimbo** and I will read them on our anniversaries.) ---

And then there was that snideness over in Coldfire’s nipple thread. (Nothing, of course, compared to what Kang and Kodos came up with…) I suppose nothing she’s said is strikingly out of bounds. She’s just creating a first impression for herself that isn’t very flattering. I know “If you can’t find something nice to say, don’t say anything at all” isn’t exactly the popular credo around here sometimes, but she seems to interject her unpleasant comments into otherwise upbeat, fun, jokey threads. What she does is neither nice nor polite. Can I bring some rice and chili sauce to this cookout we’re having?
