Alabaster...

I just noticed your new siggy... Your definitely a classy girl. It takes alot of balls to do what you did. Don't ever try to compare yourself to me.

I'm not the attention whore here.... You are. Does bashing me make you feel all warm and fuzzy inside? It must.  I don't know your story and I really don't care to now either.... But you give women a bad name.

Re: Alabaster...

  • Look, I get it. Things went to hell and it didn't go in a hand basket. This is obviously not the board for you. I am truly very sorry for your losses, especially considering that one was so recent, and my heart hurts for you. May I please suggest that you just walk away and let this be? You don't need to get involved in hate bashing...it's not worth it and I'm sure you're still reeling from your loss....let's just end this, ok?

    Love and blessings your way.

    (Golf claps) Yes Figgs you truly are a classy lady. this whole time I have wanted to reach through this screen and biitch slap her.She apparently has issues which is "unfortunate" for her.

  • Figgs, I am not a member of this board, but I read that thread and I am absolutely disgusted.  You handled yourself with grace and dignity and I am sorry for everything you are going through and wish you nothing but the best.

  • Figgs - I approve of everything you said! I said it before, but you are a classy woman and are handling this FAR better than i would. I know BOTB is slow, but i know the women over there will treat you FAR better then the 'people' here.

    Otter - Why don't you take your advice and direct it to people who need it, like alabaster.

    All day I let this go.... But it just kept going and going and going. Tell you girl here to drop it. I didn't deserve any of this.

    I'm just saying that posting things like this will only egg Ala on. I don't think it's necessary to have this go on anymore. It's just not needed and I really do feel for Figgs.

    This really has nothing to do with you as a person at all, obviously.

    Too little, too late.  And no one believes you.  You're an azz.  And I know you've made "witty" remarks about how you already know that about yourself, but let me assure you you have no idea how pathetic you really are.  Everyone else does though.

    Figgs, I'm so sorry for your loss.  I agree with PP, you handled yourself much better than most people would in the same situation.  Best of luck to you.

    Newsflash:  This is the internet.  And unless any of you are the president of the company that owns these boards, then anyone can post anything they like at anytime on any board forever and ever.  Figgs took quite a bit of bashing today, so I don't think it is unreasonable that she finally cracked and responded.  

    Expecting our second baby on February 7, 2013. Trusting Him whatever comes our way.

    We lost our first daughter, Hannah Grace on May 4, 2011 at 20 weeks. She was buried on May 14 during a beautiful service at my home church. We are grateful that if she could not be here with us, that she is healed and whole with the Lord. We look forward to the day when we will get to meet her. We love her so much.

    Ok, I agree. I'm not debating that. What I'm saying is that by coming back to post again only fuels the fire here. I'm trying to be kind here, because I don't want to see anyone get attacked. I think everyone has said all they can say and I think it's time it's dropped.

    I think she should have come back here and called her out. It's not about egging her on it's about letting her know what a true twatwaffle she is. Why should figgs slink away? So azzhats like her can continue to make themselves feel validated by being complete douchecanoes to other people on the interwebz becuase their real life is actually completely pathetic?

     

    Figgs, I am so sorry for your losses. I cannot even imagine and good for you for staying classy.

    I'll tell you what.  You deliver 2 dead babies inside of 9 months, get attacked for acknowledging their existence on a message board, have that blow into a 3 page thread and then you can decide when it is time for it to be dropped.  The way I see it, Figgs showed up, complimented the board, was excited to join in and was immediately met with inappropriate harshness when she is in the midst of grief.  So, just my opinion, but it can be dropped when she feels that it can be.  You don't have to keep reading about it you know.  

    And I have no fear of attacks from internet bullies at all, so don't worry about me.  Figgs is fine as well, as you can clearly see, she held herself together all day with class.

    I am not trying to be ugly directly to you in anyway, and I know it sounds otherwise, and for that I apologize.  But I have a "defend my friends" personality and have watched Figgs suffer terribly over the past 9 months....so when I saw this whole thing I just could not ignore it.  And this is from someone who typically ignores all internet drama and insanity because I think it is really crazy and not healthy.  

    I am sure you are a nice person, I am as well.  But I just feel like Figgs should not be shushed until she is ready to be, given the fact that she was the one attacked.

    While I have not lost children, I can assure you I've had more pain in life than anyone ever should have. Which is why I thought that if I were in Figgs position, I would want to remove myself from the situation. I am not the type of person that would want to continue that kind of situation. Figgs is able to handle herself. My apologies for stepping in. I was simply trying to remove any more drama.

  • Also, it was never my feeling or meaning that Figgs should slink away and be shushed.

  • I am really sorry for whatever you have been through.  And I do appreciate where you are coming from, I just felt that since she was the one attacked, she should be able to respond who she sees fit.  I hope you have a nice night.
