I once got flamed for a joke I made about teenagers getting seabreeze for Halloween if they came by my house... I was just joking, but you thought I was the most evil person alive by the response I got.

This must really bother you, since you brought it up so many times just in this thread. I didn't think it was the flaming of you, so much as it was that many of us just didn't share your opinion (and some people did). I didn't feel I was flaming you..however, since I had been in the predictament of using food stamps for someone else, I just didn't agree with you (and you didn't agree with me..no biggy). I've seen some real flames on these board..that couldn't be misunderstood at all that they were real flames. Really snotty stuff. This was just people not agreeing with each other, IMO.

No it doesnt bother me , as I said I am fine with people not agreeing : )

You were in no way disrespectful to me nor did you flame me you stated your thoughts and never attacked me . The Pm's that came were rude though from people not brave enough to post what they were saying on the thread.
The reason I brought up the thread on this thread was it was the only time I was flamed .

Although I did print pages of the thread for my Dh to take to the firehouse . They got a kick out of the people who were judging me and telling me not to judge LOL

I can't believe that I'm saying this again (what am I thinking), but here it goes. I was charcoaled for asking nurses about the most idiotic things that their patients have said. I didn't call them idiots - just saying that patients say some idiotic things (just like everyone else - Dis'ers, teachers, teenagers, grandparents, presidents, priests, etc.) After that little no-no, I believe I became a thread killer. I don't post much anymore

My very first post, actually. I was lurking on the Wedding boards because my DH and I were getting married in Disney World. I noticed that one girl had said her wedding date and time were the same as mine, so I registered and posted that there must be a mix up with one of us. I immediately got called a troll and was told I was cruel for causing undue stress on brides. Hello! I was trying to undo stress for myself and another bride. Luckily the girl with the same wedding date believed me, called her wedding planner, and found out that there was a mix up and she was getting married during the time slot after mine. It seems pretty common to get called a troll if you don't have that many posts whether it's true or not.

Hmmm...I think flaming is in the eye of the one left to smolder. What you may perceive as a difference of opinion, another may feel was a flame. If she felt flamed, it was a flaming to her.

FTR, she was making jokes about it on here. That's pretty much what this thread is about. She wasn't coming on here saying disparaging things about people who did not share her opinion.

I have nothing bad to say about those people that dont agree with me . If we all agreed how boring would life be ??

 

[sha_lyn]

Oh and I forgot the roasting I got from a now banned DISer

Apparently being born/raised in the south= racist bigot

I agree. I also agree with your choice of a siggy pic. I loved Rick Springfield in the 80s, then I saw him in EFX in Vegas in 2003. Oh, man! That did it. Since then, I've seen him in concert 4 times. I have a serious Rick Springfield jones!

That must have been a long time ago because we never have flames over on the weddings board

Whatever you do, don't ever say anything negative about Clay Aiken....or the ClayNation will be on you like "white on rice"!

We had to go under the government witness protection program for safety...
all I said was that I thought (my opinion)
that Reuben was a much better singer than Clay...

Well, at least you didn't suggest that Mr. Aiken might be *gay*. I've seen other brave souls get barbequed on here for that. Those "Claymates" don't play!

We got married in November of 2005 so it must of been a couple of months ahead of time. I was jsut trying to figure out the mix up and started getting called names. It was interesting.

No, I didn't change the way I post. I just developed a thicker skin.

I'm usually not one to sugar coat things. If anything, I live more in fear of points than flames!

I always like your posts dis mis. I admire that you type what you think and are not afraid to get flamed. I am a pretty sensitive person, so I really watch what I type. I always remember my weird, dry sense of humor and while it's all funny when I have a face to face conversation with someone, if you read it, some of it can come across harsh and rude!

Aw, thanks! Believe me, I hit the back button plenty of times. Usually it's when I realize my first choice of words is seriously lacking in tact.

I've seen a lot of posts where someone is attempting humor or sarcasm and it gets totally misconstrued. Without the benefit of tone and/or facial expressions, there is the danger of not coming across the way you intended.

OMG, I just saw this thread on the Budget Board. I had to come back and check your user name. I thought for sure you started this:

BethR already issued a warning, otherwise that OP would definitely be eligible to post on this thread by the end of the day.

I haven't read the whole thing yet, but I should post and say "since she's so small for her age, you should really try to get away with not paying for her. Just say she's 3!" Or... "just rent one of those electic wheelchairs, I do it all the time. I let my kids sit on my laps, it keeps them from getting tired and I don't have to walk. Plus, you get to cut in front of everyone in line" (before I get flamed, I don't really do all that...really, I don't!)
