The term "Bitter Betty"?

Did you know that this is like the equivalent of the C word on other boards? I did not know this. This post went way out of control.

Somehow I clicked on this board and now I can't stop reading. The whole thing is sad from the OP's problem to the crazy tangents it splintered off into.

  • OMG that post was linked somewhere the other day and stopped around 1.5 pages. I can't believe it continued!

    Husbands should be like Kleenex: Soft, strong, and disposable.
  • Yeah I stopped when they started bringing up dead parents and comparing death of parents to IF. It was tragedy card mania in there. 
  • Yeah.. what?

    A couple of other people used the word "bitter", but as soon as someone said "bitter betty" it was like "Whoooaaaaa, WHOA!!! OVER THE LINE!"

    Weird.

    Right! That's what I meant! Bitter alone was ok but add Betty and you're cunty! I felt like it was some kind of code.

    That may be the dumbest sh!t I've ever read in my life. 

  • I've spent the better part of the last hour reading stuff all over that board. I so wish I could have my time back. That post was so long and crazy- arguing over semantics. It didn't even make any sense. You're allowed to call someone out for the action of being bitter as long as it isn't throwing the bitterness specifically about IF in the persons face. Then the random religious references trying to guide the OP off her wh0ry abortion path. 

    I'll stick with OOTD and Randoms for $200 Alex.

  • LOL @ "be grateful." STFU you vile slime.

    Who the hell cares if you can't have babies? A woman experiencing a crisis pregnancy is not allowed to think of it as a crisis because of the state of your ute. Let me never be so foul. 

    Bitter bettys all around.
