[Lady's Human]

This must be a new definition of bully:

Bully-One who calls out other posters for being condescending and needlessly insulting........


Nope, not in Merriam Websters yet.........

Are you people related Blu & Pucky? Ladys Human, & Karen? I think Lizbud has been slam dunked by the 3 of you & is badly hurt by it. I don't even know Lizbud haven't had any contact with her/him. There are people on here that have contributed in a way that helps keep this board running are you going to bite the hands that feed this board? I have been drilled by Pucky in the past, I know what it feels like!

[Lady's Human]

Contrary to popular belief, it is entirely possible to discuss current events and political issues without resorting to insults.

Being that there is apparently no interest in civility on this board, I would recommend that the dog house be closed and deleted, and the discussion of politics and current events be banned.

Too bad, I like Thursdays, and enjoy political discussion when it can be done maturely.

[Bonny]

As long as no one challenges or disputes your way of thinking?

[Lady's Human]

No, challenging one's way of thinking does not equal insults and personal slams.


Contrary to popular belief, two people disagreeing does not mean one is stupid and the other is intelligent. It means they have a difference of opinion.

If you can't take the heat, then stay out of the kitchen!!!

Just a generalized statement, and not directed at anyone in particular..... No response needed, but if the shoe fits, then indeed you should wear it.

But when the heat is pointless or due to an issue which is easily remedied, DO something about it.

I thought Liz was teasing Wom.....

She was, and there's no harm in that....in fact I welcome it. It gives a lighter side to this forum that is much needed.

Yes - it may be pointless - but everyone that posts a comment believes that they are in the right. So it's just a vicious circle - it goes round and round and there is no end.

[Lady's Human]

Again, believing you're right does not mean the other person is stupid.

Is is that obvious? Must be, or others would not have picked up on it.
Or maybe they did but just didn't post about it. Thanks Bonnie. I'm not
hurt at all. This a'in't my first rodeo.

LH feels the need to pop off every once in a while. Forget it, I do.

and yes Cataholic, it was a joke. Did I not put enough smilies in to show that?

How can you not get personal if you are honest about what you believe in & it comes deep from within your heart?

Because the title of the thread is Mad Mel. The discussion was about Mel Gibson and then a jab at another PTer was made and everyone was off and running. Why get personal when the discussion was about a celebrity that so many have claimed that they don't give a fig about anyhow?

I've been following the posts since the beginning of the Mad Mel original post and I have to agree with Medussa on this. How in the world did Mad Mel, someone we obviously all find distasteful get everyone turned against each other like this? Isn't this a bit like adulation for this guy? Just think how proud he would feel to know he holds this kind of power over all of us here....maybe it's time to show the idiot the exit....IMO

I would much rather know how Myndi is doing Ellie.....
