Re: S/O Niners who aren't around...
I specifically don't share Nutella receipes with shiit-disturbing wanderers from other boards. Tell Smo we said hi.
Word. And I've seen the old threads about your denial in la la land about things that are racially insensitive. Looking through your board, I find some of you to be about as bright as a 25 watt light bulb. But ya know hey, whatevs.
Be it a lesson, you never know who stalks your board and sends out alerts. You've already been floating around cyberspace.
Tip: If you want to dish dirt on old posters, be ready for folks coming back who don't like the ish you dish.
Lol even better...not an AE, but a shiitstirrer?

On the contrary, we welcome it. Relish in it. Bask in the glory of knowing that no matter how hard they try, they just can't quit us.

Not typically, but today I figured what the hell.
Except you're not "coming back" you have no investment into this board whatsoever other than to bully people that you don't even know.
So Class, let's discuss the fact that you all find being told something crosses the line is cringe worthy. Why is that? Because everyone in the USA should speak English Dammit! Or because you just don't want to address societal issues that continue to plague this country? Or is it because with Obama being the Prezzy we're in a Post-Racial Society.
Discuss children.
Pretty sure we were all well aware that someone would jump over here with their panties all in a knot, this is not a surprise. I'm only surprised it took nearly a day for it to occur. I am also not surprised in the least that it was Smo related over all the other names that were mentioned in the post.
Not before we discuss sagging boobs.
I assure you that none of us posted anything under the assumption that the people we were talking about wouldn't see it. We know they're watching.
Now shoo.
Here's what I do know. I know that strumming through these posts that it seems this board likes to talk a lot of smack about people. Another one of your regs posted after getting a tip that smack talk was going on. My guess is that she was tipped off by someone who frequents the board and also doesn't like what happens here.
Who knows. I might just drop back in. I tend to lurk on lots of boards. Today, this one was highlighted because of the nastiness going on. So, if nastiness is welcome, then why not just jump in the fray? When in Rome they say ...
Provide an example Teacher. You want to play this game? Be specific. I like addressing issues. I like discussing where the line is.
I think steeseer must have given you guys the benefit of the doubt then. She called me the bully, but not you all. Isn't that special.
So let me ask you this, if you dislike them so, and are so glad they are gone, then why rehash the drama? Why try to get them to come back? Does it get you off?
*pulls up her Dr. Phil chair*
Do you want to get them before they get you?
HEY, HEY! There's only room on this board for ONE therapist. I was humoring you before, but I'll be damned if you steal my Dr. Phil chair.
You must not have "strummed" far then. Other than the last few days I haven't seen a whole lot of smack talking.

I only reveal my deep dark secrets to Nooner.
Also, it's the freaking internet. I'm not scared of anyone, nor should they fear me. I didn't scare any of them off, and they're more than welcome to come back. I also don't really think any of them need you to swoop in and rescue them.
Do you want me to really bully you and push you out of the chair and take it from you?
*slides chair over*
Sit here my pretty. Let's discuss why the Niners are hoping to get lurkers riled up. If you dislike them so, then why not leave them alone after the GBCN posts?
*looks around the Niners group circle for answers*
So, you're a bad biitch then as the rappers say?
If they were passionate enough to GBCN, then why are they bothering to continue to lurk the board they chose to leave?
For me, it has nothing to do with getting lurkers riled up. They all know what happened, how everyone (or someone) feels about them, and thats why they left. IMO thats not really "talking ***" if its already been put out in the open before.
Its more like, reminiscing. Don't you ever get together with friends from High School or college and talk about stuff that happened? Exactly as the original post was titled, "Remember when..."
*narrows eyes*
We know they lurk. If they really don't care (like they claim they don't), why the lurking? They may lack proverbial balls, but we don't.
We were just reminscing. Not all trash talking. In fact, we miss several people who have fallen off. If you read thoroughly, I even said I miss some of the convos Smo started. I just wish she wasn't so narrow minded and accusatory when she expressed her opinions here.
Yes, but not mean commentary. That's just not how I roll.
A bad biiitch I am not. A well liked, respected member of this board, I am. Every regular on this board knows me well enough to know that I'm not a malicious person. I rarely stray from this board because these ladies are not strangers to me, they are friends.
As Stees and Nooner both said, we were just reminiscing. Nothing was said that the GBCN'ers didn't already know. Smo doesn't like me, and I'm okay with that. She knows that I don't like her, and I would venture to say that she's okay with that too. When shiiit went down between us, we privately settled our differences. Doesn't mean we have to become BFF's.
And, as I said before, she doesn't need you to come rescue her. If there's one thing I know about Smo, it is that she's fully capable of taking care of herself.
The thing is most posts about racial issues seem accusatory. But when you consider that the topic invokes an immediate visceral response for most people, it does seem like the person discussing the topic is being accusatory. It's a hot button issue and you have to take your emotion out it.
Oh bless your heart. A bad biitch is a term of endearment among rappers.
I know Smo can take care of herself. I just felt the need to bug you people today.
I'm sorry, but is mean commentary not what you are doing right now? Furthermore, our "mean commentary" was based on events that occurred that we were personally involved in, while your mean commentary is flingling insults and blanket profiling of people you have read about for all of two seconds.
Who is the pot now?
Which Smo wasn't very good at. Hence why we all ended up frustrated.
I would imagine that's the whole point with the Trayvon Martin debate. Not fun to be profiled now is it?
The bigger question is did you learn anything? Or did you just gloss over the main points because a minority pointed out things you don't like or didn't want to think about in that light?
A.) Don't "bless your heart" me. I'm Southern, I see right through that.
B.) Bugging us?
