Do DDs bother you, or do you not give a sh!t because it's just a message board, and people can do whatever they want? I've never understood the big deal, honestly. It does bum me out when I miss out on some exciting drama though.
Ha! DD is dirty delete. It is when someone posts something, usually gets a response they don't like, then they delete the whole thread.

Do DDs bother you, or do you not give a sh!t because it's just a message board, and people can do whatever they want? (ha, I think I'm giving away my answer). They bug the hell out of me, not because it's a dd but because I miss lotsa juicy stuff. Thank goodness for Google cache, which works about 50% of the time! When I see a dd in Goggle cache, I am always tempted to repost it, but I'm passive-agressive like that.

Do DDs bother you, or do you not give a sh!t because it's just a message board, and people can do whatever they want? (ha, I think I'm giving away my answer) They bother me whe people gave good an genuine advice and people are DDing because they are pissed at the answers.
Do you follow the 5-second rule? (for food that falls on the ground, etc.)
If it's dry and falls in a relatively clean place. I'm sort of in the "whatever doesn't kill you makes you stronger" camp.
Do you own or rent?
I rent.
Are you putting up a Christmas tree this year?
Probably not. I kind of want to get a pink sparkly one because this is my adult christmas without some kind of boyfriend/husband, so I feel like I can do something cheesy and girly.
Will you be getting a Christmas/holiday bonus at work?
hahahaha. deep breath. hahahahahaha.
What are you currently reading?
I'm reading a textbook of feminist essays from the 18th-20th century. I'm also working my way through On Writing by Henry Miller and Faulkner short stories. Yes, this is for fun, and yes, I am a giant nerd.
Do DDs bother you?
They bother me when the responses are good and insightful advice that could be helpful to someone else who has the same question but is afraid to ask. It doesn't bother me so much when people post stupid crap, get flamed, and then DD. I mean, I am super curious about what was so bad, but that's it.
