I'm trying to think of the pinnacle of lameness re: Elfstergate

What was it that Proud told Ready after the Busted Virgin Debacle?  Something to the effect of throwing her off the board.  I can't remember and it's killing me.

Re: I'm trying to think of the pinnacle of lameness re: Elfstergate

  • Proud would have been a hit on The Bump, it seems.

    Husbands should be like Kleenex: Soft, strong, and disposable.
  • I think Bustedgate and Elfstergate were different scandals.
    image
  • did there just have to be one pinnacle?
  • I can't recall exactly, but it was cutting.

  • They were all part of the same chain of events.  Bustedgate was the catalyst for the Elfster hacking.  The two cannot be separated in the history books.

    I think she said, "Find a new board."  Is that right?

    Personally, that's the moment I closed my eyes and groaned, and sensed an official shark jumping was under way.

    I thought that was Babbs.  I used to get them confused a lot.

  • No bustedgate was chop calling proud's husband busted. Ready agreed and AFB was pissed over the betrayal. Or something like that.
    image Ready to rumble.
  • There was some serious tension and then a couple posts that sparked straight up debate.  I think one of them did involve Proud telling Ready she was stupid and to get off the board and then sort of looking around for everyone to back her up while we all sat with our mouths agape.

    Oh, okay.  I thought Babbs' husband was busted.  I'm a moron.

  • Ready didn't even agree, right?  I think she just said "everyone has a right to their own opinion" and all hell broke loose from there.  Or maybe I have old-timers too.

    That's how I remember it, too.

  • I'm not saying Ready shouldn't have posted whatever she felt like, but it was a coy, maybe even passive-aggressive, way of giving a thumbs up to chop's post.  If she wanted to be neutral, she wouldn't have chimed in at all.  It's kind of like the zipped-mouth smiley.

    I don't really give a sh!t if Ready hated Proud's guts, but let's not rewrite history!  We aren't the Texas Board of Education.

    It was definitely Proud. I think it was after the busted posts because there were a LOT of self-righteous "how dare you call him a retard!" posts from NEY.

    If we are reading between the lines, the sisterhood never saying he wasn't busted but that he was a great H b/c he bought her jewelry spoke volumes too.

  • Eh, that's not totally true, Fallin.  I don't think everyone rushed the gates to defend his looks...  But I know there were a few people that said they didn't think he was busted. If I didn't say it then, I'm saying it now... He is not busted. Everyone takes busted pics now and then/has bad angles.

    He's my friend so maybe I'm biased, but I think he's a cutie.

    Honestly, I did beat my head against the wall when someone posted that.  

    Personally, I would never in my Knot/Nest life try to defend any one of you or your husband to accusations of fugliness by saying, "(s)he's totally hot, shut up!"  Amateur hour!   Either you ignore and let the moment pass, or you come up with a clever comeback.  Victimized whining is zero percent effective in combatting flames/board invasions.

  • Proud was the one who posted the bit about jewelry.  I don't recall if I said anything about his looks, but really, it wouldn't have mattered.  A back and forth of "He's ugly!" "No, he's not!" would just be idiotic.

  • I'm pretty sure more than Proud said it, and a few people added that he is so sweet to her.  It was kind of like, "Is he cute?" [pause]  "He's really nice."  I remember b/c I found it funny that there was such a ruckus about the busted comment when it seemed most people were implicitly agreeing, and I didn't really think he was fug.  I also found it funny that no one said, "Um, let's consider the taste of the person throwing the insult in the first place."
