I hate it when people post just to post.....

....like when clearly the post has no relevance or adds no value to the OP's question or concern.

Like this:

OP Question: I am having trouble finding a good fish recipe I like...can anyone help?

Response: I hate fish! Fish makes me gag!

Can someone explain the purpose of this? I mean, if you don't like fish, then why dont you just move on to the next thread? Who really cares what makes you gag or not gag???? I know I don't.

  • I'm having a very hard time understanding why three out of four guinea pigs have the first letter of their name capitalized, but the fourth one (cuddles), has the first letter of its name in lower cas

  • well, i respectfully disagree. I don't think its acceptable to do it. I strongly dont think that its ok to do it, and i do not think that someone who's doctor didnt tell them about PB's who comes here

I am posting to say that my daughter's stepmother is an idiot!!!!!!!!! She sent me an email because my daughter is with them for the week and they were planning to take all the kids to a water park tomorrow. My daughters TOM arrived today. She has never worn tampons and is not comfortable with the idea of doing so. So, wicked stepmom says to me that I need to call my dd because she is refusing to wear a tampon and is going to ruin everything for everyone because of that. OK, first off, how is that going to ruin it for everyone else if she goes but chooses to just stay out of the water and get some sun instead? Secondly, my daughter is 15 years old. It is her body, her choice. If she chooses to wear tampons, fine, if she chooses not to, then that is fine as well. Evil stepmom asked me what kind of parent I am that I would allow something as silly as that to spoil their day? She said her daughter didn't want to wear them but after forcing her to for 5 months she finally got used to it. WTF??!!! I am not going to force my daughter to do something with her body that she doesn't want to. That is a personal choice for her to make and no one else.

OK, rant over. I just needed to get that off my chest.

I am constantly amazed by the audacity of people.

Wow what an insane beach!!!!! How old is this woman 20? I had a stepmonster when I was 17 and it was not fun. I lived with mine because my mother had died. At least your daughter has a normal mom to come home to! I could never be divorced because something like this would end up putting me in prison!! Vent all you like you know we'll support you here! brandyII:thumbup:

Thanks for the support guys. Her stepmom is about 37 years old. Before she started sleeping with my ex, we were actually best friends! After she had an affair with my husband while we were still married, she couldn't understand why our friendship couldn't continue. Yes, she is truly an idiot.

Just remember Karma is a bitch...she'll get her's one day. I had a friend that went through almost the exact same thing, her ex ended up cheating on the new wife too. She actually turned to my friend trying to get sympathy (they used to be best friends), needless to say, my friend told her to F-off, lol.

Susan; oh my gawd that woman is a few cards short of a full deck. She wants you to force your daughter to do something that she isn't comfortable with?!?!?!?!? WTF ... Just because your daughter wont be going in the water wont spoil everyones fun. FFS why isn't her father sticking up for her?!?!?!?!?!?

Her dad is a big jerk too. For as long as I have known him, everything has been about him. He never thinks about anyone else, just himself. He doesn't care if he upsets his daughter, so long as she ends up doing what makes him happy. I am so glad I live two hours away from them. If I lived closer, I would probably do something I would regret later, lol.

ok ... my response is completely inappropriate, but this is R&R...

Susan,

i would tell her to try shoving a tampon somewhere she's never shoved one before and 'go have fun' at the water park. after 8-10 hours of it there, then you'll talk to your DD and tell her what you think she should do...

Actually, I would like to shove it there for her!! :rolleyes2:

It's amazing how clueless some "best friends" can be. After I caught my best friend lying on my loungeroom floor with my husband's little white bum going up and down between her legs, while I was HOME!!, she didn't get why I didn't want to be friends with her any more. I guess chasing her out of the house with a broom wasn't a big enough clue.

What was even funnier is that after my husband and I split and they got together, she used to ring me up and try to complain about his violence, emotional blackmail and manipulative controlling ways - and this was after watching how he had treated me for the previous several years, and even helping me talk him into staying at their house after parties because I was too scared to go home with him, knowing that he'd drunk enough that the "evil switch" in his head had been triggered.

My revenge was watching her disintegrate as a person, just by living with him :rolleyes2:. She was always an emotionally fragile woman and I couldn't understand how she could ever imagine that she could handle that life. After only a year with him, she ended up in a mental hospital with a complete nervous breakdown... so sad :rolleyes2::tongue2:.
