seriously!
everytime i read a post that Twilight has contributed to, it makes me think that maybe i'm in the wrong place. like, i don't come here to read nasty comments and think "who's going to start a fight this week"
and yes, not everyone is a perfect angel, but i can't think of anyone who's contribution is 100% negative either. i wish there was a way to block reading certain people's posts. or like, have an alert that flashes "Twilight and ****, round 1!" then "Twilight and ****, round 2!" etc. that way, i know to steer clear of a particular thread.
and Twilight, what's with the sig? you're tasty? is that good?
can anyone please explain this Twilight/Fight phenomena?

100% mean? Gee.. I seem to remember making many contributions/suggestions to Chrissy's thread about her child's allergy problem today. I also remember making numerous helpful suggestions to ChrisMG187's thread about asking the girl to Homecoming. I gave Passwird a suggestion to ward off the harrassment by his professor. I've also posted two deals on the deals page in the last two weeks. And if you look carefully, I think you'll find that most of the posts where I come off as "mean" are in retaliation to something someone has said mean about me.

that in itself can be cruel. well, not if they dont know...but i have actually had someone tell me that they ignore all my posts or discredit them because they are from me. i have to say that really bugged me a lot. i mean, essentially they were saying that i have nothing to contribute. they don't know me, have never met me, etc., but yet they felt that i was not worthy of being read. well, it took me a while to remember the whole "you can't please all the people" saying. at the same time, some things should just never be said.
some people must enjoy hurting others :disa:
as for twilight...maybe she's misunderstood(?)

Twilight, she said that she can't think of anyone 100% negative. She didn't say you were that.
But you have to admit, you are not really popular with the girls on this site. Not that you have to be, or that you might even care. :shrug:

Maybe so. She's more blunt than most women I know, but I take that for what it is and I don't see it as a bad thing. Styleee, can you present some specifics?

Note that even if you have someone on the edit list, it won't stop you from seeing their reply if that reply was quoted by another person. Which is likely when people are having intense discussions. :angry:

i think your whole theory just got blown to bits by the fact that she gave a very level-headed response to a very ... shall we say, BLUNT... post.

i'm sorry, i didn't mean that u never post anything nice, i don't read every thread that is posted. i just meant that the majority of the time, u seem to take the bait that others have given u. its like people know they are going to piss u off, and u let them. and then it confuses me as to why u even bother posting, u all feed negitive energy to each other. & i don't need to come to a place that is so negitive, i've got enough of it i can't avoid!

No, I am mean. Twilight is cute and cuddly by comparison.
