I'm not a psychologist, but I play one on the Dis

[snapppyd]

It seems almost every time I open a thread where some poor person is just trying to vent or talk about a minor annoyance a bunch of people jump all over them with terms like "control freak", 'passive aggressive" or "Narcissisim".

We get it, you took psychology in college.

As a matter of fact, I do have a psychology degree!

Is "control freak" a psychological term?

If someone is posting something on a message board expect people to comment. It is a MESSAGE BOARD.

It's a little early for buttered popcorn. You must have a serious eating disorder. That's my official Dis diagnosis.

You may be onto something - who drinks a "hot" beverage with popcorn?? This could be a serious problem

Commenting, yeah, but throwing around what they think are appropriate medical terms for the OP's situation when they have no real idea is what makes me

MagicMom made me snort-giggle

I work for the Bar Association, so that makes me qualified to give legal advice... It's kinda scary how many people actually think that; I don't even have a legal secretarial degree!!

OK, you get a free pass to say whatever you think!

if you spill your coffee you should sue the disboards or the OP

Especially while sitting at the computer. Didn't you know that if you spill, it could be ruined. I hate picking popcorn kernels out of my keyboard.

I never took psychology in college (or anywhere else) but I still find it fascinating some of the things people will get bent out of shape over.

I admit to occasionally running into a thread where someone will go on and on and on (WITH MANY EXPLANATION POINTS!!!!!!!!)about some minor infraction or imagined slight from someone else. You know - the things that many people will run into in every day life but just let it roll off their back, but this person will feel the need to start an entire thread to vent about it. I don't need a psychology degree to think the person has some sort of issues.

But there has to be that many exclamation marks so you understand how "LIVID" they are. You wouldn't get the whole "mamma bear" experience if they didn't write LIKE THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I might just have to JAGE this thread.

I might just have to JAGE this thread.

um...psst...it's YAGE.

and remember a proper YAGE requires you to return to the thread within 45 minutes to add "just one more thing."

I'm such a dork. And one who can't spell.

edit: great! this spelling blunder will probably get me my first tag & I'll never be able to forget it.
