Places that make you hate.

Why do we go there?

OT lately has made me absolutely abhor a few people. Why do I do that to myself? I am having a fine day and then I go to OT and I find myself wanting to rip my fucking hair out or worse yet, pop certain peeps heads off like dandelions tops. Are people seriously that obtuse? Other than checking with the weight loss carp and AI threads, I think I should stay away all together.

What places make your blood boil? Do you repeatedly go back? Why?

P.S. In the course of typing this entry, I went and looked again and ended up sending an angry pm. Oh goody. I am ready to fucking scream.

Look, I'm sorry that you can't melt your mozzarella anymore, but that PM was really unneccesary. *grin*

OT (or rather the people on OT) does piss me off sometimes, but I keep going back because the good generally outweighs the bad.

HA! I was going to point out that this had nothing to do with Weltek eating chocolates in front on me.

Positive outlook, JL. It's just I have trouble with a few peeps in particular that make my blood pressure skyrocket. Kind of the way Rulz does for a lot of peeps.

I have those people, too. And not the usual suspects. I just do my best to ignore them. I will skip over their posts because I know that reading them will just piss me off.
I'm almost exclusively a shallow ender. I read the deep end threads, but I rarely reply to them. I don't like fighting, and I am not good at expressing my opinions, especially if it's something that upsets me. So I just try to stay away, as best I can.

Oh, btw, and I find it funny that your name is k(i)tt(e)n, but you use a dog picture as your icon. LOL. Thea is a cutie though. :)

Should I switch to Ryan's photo so as not to confuse? Be right back.

 
At 12:17 PM, Blogger thndrkttn said...

How's this? *grin*

 
At 12:17 PM, Blogger thndrkttn said...

I miss my Poopie already! *sniff*

 
At 12:32 PM, Blogger Jen said...

I like them both. Thea looks so sad though. You should post with her when you're sad and with Ryan when you're happy. :)
It's too bad it's not easy to change icons quickly.

 
At 1:23 PM, Blogger Bravie said...

Oh yes. I do the same thing over there. Why? I have no clue. I do it in certain blogs too. I guess I have no discipline and that is why I return.
Can't you take a picture of Poopie and Ryan together and then post that?

 
At 1:33 PM, Blogger Bravie said...

I really want to squeeze Ryan's little cheeks and plant a big ole kiss. *kittysmooches*

 
At 1:36 PM, Blogger thndrkttn said...

Here's a happier picture of Thea.

If I could ever get them together when she's not trying to use him as a squeaky toy, maybe I could get a picture of them together.

Thirsty Thursday *smooches* for Carey and yes, you did respond to that e-mail. *grin*

 
At 1:38 PM, Blogger Jen said...

Wow. She looks so much bigger in that new picture. Cute!

 
At 1:50 PM, Blogger Bravie said...

*smooches* in return.
Okay, I wasn't sure. *grin*

I was gonna say "But you TOLD me to eat the chocolate!"

I'm still debating whether I should post on the great debate thread or not.

 
At 3:35 PM, Blogger thndrkttn said...

Kim, dood, a couple of those peeps in that thresd are taking crazy pills. I mean seriously.

And I was going to respond to your chocolate thresd but OT has been really slow loading today. So thanks for the play by play. It sounded yummy!

 
At 3:42 PM, Blogger kim (weltek) said...

I went. I posted. I'm prepared for the attack.

I've never been the type to tell someone their beliefs are plain WRONG. However, I can present how I feel & why. So that's all I'm striving to do. Can't wait to be called a baby-killer.

 
At 3:47 PM, Blogger mtw said...

Oooh! Is ther another abortion thread? FUN! I'm totally shallow as you all know, and I won't let anyone on OT ever upset me - just a personal policy.

I may go over and take a controversial position on abortion, just to throw some gas on the fire!

 
At 3:49 PM, Blogger thndrkttn said...

I just find it interesting that they tell us what's right and what's wrong and if something were to happen to a woman in their lives, well then 'it was meant to be.' Oh really? I don't buy that for a second. I don't buy that they would feel the exact same if they had to face the situation head on, in real life and not just spouting piousness on a reality-tv message board.

There I said it.

 
At 3:52 PM, Blogger Bravie said...

I have had trouble getting in to OT. I can't wait to get in and read though.
*makes popcorn* Anyone want some?

 
At 3:56 PM, Blogger thndrkttn said...

Carey- I really had to hold myself back from blasting both of them.

These are the times that I miss some of the posters that left. They would have a field day with some of the crap said.

*grabs some popcorn*

 
At 4:06 PM, Blogger Bravie said...

I haven't been able to read any of it. it's taken too long to load. I'm going to try again when I get home.

he he he. the popcorn in the lap trick worked on Tkit. *grin*

 
At 4:08 PM, Blogger thndrkttn said...

You are so cute. *smooch*

Thank you for the smile at the end of a rather irritating day.

I'll have more irritating posts for tomorrow involving the twits in my office. And Believe it or not, it doesn't involve TEE.

 
At 4:41 PM, Blogger Bravie said...

Yay!!!! *waits for Tkit rants*
*smooch*

I make a point of going to the political threads just so I can see at what point liberals are called Un-American, because I know it's going to happen. It's my new game. *grin*

I've avoided the abortion thread because I know what is going to happen...I'll be disgusted and get angry. I hate the hyprocisty of people. I know most of you are too young to remember this, but one of my all time favorite new clips was of then Vice President Dan *gag* Quayle being interviewed about abortion. He stated that he was totally against abortion, but then when asked what he would do if his daughter got pregnant as a result of a rape, he said he would try to get her an abortion. Can you say "hypocrit"?

*sigh*

Sign me,
Augie the Liberal Un-american

OK, I posted on the abortion thread!!!

So far, no comments. I think it would be really funny if some of you would post and take me to task on my comment. :-)

 
At 8:26 PM, Blogger Lasann said...

I came here first and just can't stop myself from going to look. If you are angry what will I be? I shall return!

 
At 10:08 PM, Blogger Lasann said...

Pretty predictible stuff over there. My pills must be working because I didn't blow my top! Those guys are just, so, irritating.

 
At 10:08 AM, Blogger thndrkttn said...

I just wanted to say one thing and then I will be done with this topic. Buggy said what I wanted to. I didn't because I wouldn't have been nearly as nice about it.

*casino clap*

I'm out.

 
At 1:03 PM, Blogger HistoryDetective said...

Yeah, I completely understand what you mean!

I've been following discussions over that but not posting for almost a month now (though I will confess to having hot the reply button a couple of times before talking myself out of it). My blood has been boiling less as the result of not being directly invovled in the conversations. In the time that I've been away, I've seen some snide comments from right wingnuts that would rank right up there with stuff that banned posters from the left used to say, yet somehow this is now acceptable behavior because they are morally superior after all.

I also wish that certain peeps were still around and expressing their views.

 
At 2:48 PM, Blogger thndrkttn said...

Not that anyone is going to read this far down but I find a certain amount of satisfaction when I reach a post written by one of the posters that I can't stand, I skip right over it and think "HA! Take that you DAW. I just ignored you."

And we all know, to a true DAW, being ignored is like water to the wicked witch.
