The "Waiting for ROFR" support group thread

[Grandbuddy]

This has nothing to do with ROFR or buying DVC. It does have to do with me not following my own advice and going over to other threads where people are mean spirited, condescending, snooty and superior. My new nemesis I will call "Aunt Edna" staying with the Vacation movie theme. If there is someone on Disboards named Aunt Edna, it’s not you I am speaking of the person I speak of has a different name. Anywho, Aunt Edna posts belittling threads with a snooty attitude and then has the audacity to chime in later from her broom stick that she doesn’t get upset so why should everyone else. She looks down her nose at those people on the budget board and basically makes fun of entire groups of people; she’s a nasty little troll. Some people may need the budget board to be able to go to WDW for their once in a lifetime trip. She picks on handicapped people, folks that are trying to save a buck basically anyone she feels beneath her. She probably cuts off “Make a Wish Families” getting on the monorail. My point is why? This is a Walt Disney World board. This isn’t a forum where we are discussing the separation of church and state or anti-abortion vs. prochoice. It freakin Disney World why the venom and then when it’s pointed out she hides behind this silly excuse that things are taken out of context. How do you take the puss that rolls off her finger tips as “out of context?” Do you really need to feel superior to people so bad that you insult them on a Disney World forum. I just don’t get it, she better be careful, someone already dropped a house on her sister.

Sorry had to vent, I’m ready for my punishment now

And Tammy, please send HR to only happy threads! We want him to make it to his next birthday, too!

I understand, Ed. When I first found this board, I loved it and posted happily. Then I came across Aunt Edna's evil twin. It soured me on this site and I stayed away for about 5 months. Then, when we decided to buy another vacation property, I started lurking again. I was really glad to find you guys and, in fact, lurked for quite a while before getting up the nerve to post. I didn't think you guys would want me here since I was going thru Marriott ROFR. You all made me feel better about the Disboards.

Every bb has it's Aunt Edna....unfortunately....miserable, little people who love to share and spread their misery. They get great joy from insulting others, stirring up controversy and, generally, making people upset. I actually feel sorry for them. How sad their lives must be if that is what brings them some warped form of happiness.

Oh....and CONGRATS, Grand buddy!!!! I LOVE your announcement!! That list is moving right a long!!! Jax, you are next!!!

First of all, not want you here, come on. Your an big part of this thread, and look how much my spelling has improved since you joined us. Second of all, I think I was a little sheltered here on this thread, this is where I cut my Disboard teeth and everyone hear is nice and supportive and generally wishes nothing but the best for each other. I was kind of blindsided by that thread at first I thought I would jump right in, then I thought, I should stay away but I can't help it when I feel like one of our peeps is under attack (Dvcnewgirl) I feel like I should jump in and strike back, of coarse she is more than capable of handling herself but I can't help it, it's in my nature. Every time I start to write a post over there I read it and then say to myself, "I'm banned if I post this" so I don't do it but I really, really, really want to.

Duh! So I finally found it.

You have a gorgeous family. Since I had only seen Lilly in your avatar, I had simply assumed that you were a lovely black family. Instead, you are a lovely family "of many colors," by design. Thank you for your willingness to put up with some of the stuff you have to deal with from ignorant people, for the sake of your beautiful girls!

Good Afternoon Sunshines!

Ed, I've decided to not even open that thread again. My sister feels the same. We'll just stay in our happy place over here. If Aunt Edna buys resale, I'll just put her on ignore..

Grandbuddy, Congrats! on passing! I'm really happy for you.

As for my "special day" so far no email saying I'm closed. But, with what happened with my sister's airfare, she may not be going to Disney in June now anyway. If she doesn't go, I won't need those dates...I'm just kind of sick of worrying about it and I'm letting it go. I'll close eventually.

This one will make you feel better about the world, and forget about Aunt Edna.

I'm pretty sure she wouldn't be caught dead buying "resale" How revolting!

 

[Laxmom]

Thanks, Ed. You all made me realize that, thank goodness, the snipes are not the majority here. I'm really glad that I have had a positive influence on you!!

Tammy, I was really sorry to see about your sisters airfare problem. I sure hope things work out and I think she will get her money back. It just may take a couple of weeks. (used to work in a bank until I was robbed - that's a whole 'nother story!!)

 

[tammymacb]

You were in a bank robbery!?!

Wow..

What a nice story, thank you Grandbuddy. Wouldn't it be nice if everyone had the attitude of those people on the bus. Of coarse after I read it I thought to myself, I bet Aunt Edna would have logged a complaint at the front desk because she was late to get to the park after of coarse after she called everyone on the bus names.

I'm Sorry.
I'm hopeless aren't I.

Sorry had to vent, I’m ready for my punishment now

I had a very hard time with Aunt Edna and her supporters including the people that are supposed to be fair. I can't believe how I let people on a computer get under my skin. Tammy just went in that thread because I told her about people being really mean, and as she has been doing since I was born she tried to beat up the bullies for me. So, if you have to think anything about it, feel lucky that you are a happy person who is good to others. You can lay down at night knowing you did not intentionally hurt anyones feelings. I know that out of this I have rembered that my big sis has always taken on my bullies for me and always will.

Well, I'm glad you have such a great attitude about it, I guess I can follow suit. I am going to stay away from that thread (this time I mean it).

 

[dvcnewgirl]

Congrats Grandbuddy!

 

[Laxmom]

You were in a bank robbery!?! Wow..

Yep. Me and one other teller. Took months to get over. He did not use a gun but said he had one. They caught him and he did 3 years. I stayed at the bank for 6 more months. I loved my job until then and wanted to see if I could get past it. I couldn't so I left.

What a nice story, thank you Grandbuddy. Wouldn't it be nice if everyone had the attitude of those people on the bus. Of coarse after I read it I thought to myself, I bet Aunt Edna would have logged a complaint at the front desk because she was late to get to the park after of coarse after she called everyone on the bus names.

I'm Sorry.
I'm hopeless aren't I.

So am I. She wouldn't be brave enough to say it to their faces. She would wait until she got home and then post it on the internet. Oh, am I a bad girl.

Don't let it get to you. Just think of us all as the cousin Eddies of the Dis boards!! We're there for ya'!!

Great way to think of it!!

I can't imagine what you went through.. that must have been so scary.

 

[Laxmom]

Laxmom!! Bank Robbery, Wow, listen I work in a prison you give me this guys name I'll take care of it from there, you don't know nothing!!!

Thanks, HR. It is nice to know you've got my back!! I actually don't remember his name. I did get a letter when he was released. Shows you how smart this guy was. He robbed the bank twice in 30 days. The same branch!!! I do remember he was only 23. What a waste.

Great way to think of it!!

I can't imagine what you went through.. that must have been so scary.

It was the weirdest thing I have ever been thru. I mean how my mind and emotions were. I was numb. Kind of like watching a movie go on around me but I was part of it. Just weird.

Now for happy thoughts!! Tomorrow is day 10!! Up until now, I wasn't giving it much thought but now, it could really be any time now!!
