Poll: Have you ever been flamed on TN/TK/TB?

Re: Poll: Have you ever been flamed on TN/TK/TB?

  • Plenty of times.  Usually because I said something stupid and should have thought through it a little bit more before posting - so I probably had it coming. 
  • Yup! I got flamed for posting a vent about some family drama on this board. I was called a spoiled brat or something along those lines and told I was ungrateful. I don't think it was deserved, but I appreciated some of the other advice I got from the post.

    I was flamed about being really frustrated caring for my very sick, elderly FIL (who subsequently passed away). I know my initial post did not not come across as the most empathetic, and I guess I was not "regular" enough for people to remember my ongoing frustrations. 

    Is it weird that we remember these specific situations?? 

     

    Were you the one whose FIL pooped on the floor?

    Not quite. My FIL refused to wear a robe and was constantly laid out in all his glory. I was super uncomfortable with the situation, seeing as how I was asked/ expected to help clean him up, take him to the bathroom, etc, while all of his sons (including XH) just sort of stood around and watched. Was also asked to help give him an enema. But I think it was the nudity (which is just what I had mentioned that day) that got me flamed.  We were barely married a year at this time and I was in WAY over my head.

  • Oh yes!  I've had my share of flaming and mostly because of my trainwreck dating scenarios.  Probably the most notable was when I posted a pic of a guy I was dating who was posing without a shirt on (his face wasn't visible).  He was a Jersey Shore looking guy but at the time that's what I was into.  I got the shiit flamed out of me and I deserved it.

    I also got flamed for getting all upset when someone I wasn't dating very long broke things off.  In hindsight things were moving WAY too quickly and I needed someone to slap some sense into me.  That last one was probably just around a year ago.

  • It's not a full and productive week on the nest if I haven't been flamed somewhere for something. I think I've hit all the major boards...ML, PC&E, MM, and SO.

     

  • Ooh Ooh me! Cutting, smoking pot, still being with my BF, and not going inpatient. Oooh baby :)

    Yeah I deserved some. I'm better now.

    Any way the wind blows...

  • Ah, Meatloafgate.  That was fun!

    "You don't know how to cook a meatloaf!"

    "No, YOU don't know how to cook a meatloaf!!"

    "How dare you insult my cooking skills, I'm a professional!!"

    "Taste is a matter of opinion you dummy!!!"

    "BUT MY MEATLOAF IS BETTER AND YOU WILL NEVER CONVINCE ME OTHERWISE!!!!"

  • yes, i can't recall, but usually the way i typed came across wrong, so i partially deserved it.
