When I think about "the anger and hatred my fun thread brought out" I think..

[Guava Jelly]

:(
It was meant to be fun.
Anyone could have joined in.
I try to love and be kind to everyone.
Some people are just so insecure and angry.
I actually believed I was insecure.
But the snark has convinced me otherwise.
Why cant people just let shit go?
If it bothers you then use the hide feature.
If I bother you put me on ignore.
If you wish to be my friend than I would love to have you as one.
If not thats ok.

1. Eh

I know people here hate me...They just chose to let it be known publicly. Luckily, I'm a tough cookie. And frankly, I've had worse. :)

:pals:

3. People hate me too

But they don't know me
or you actually.
I am cool with it actually.
It did piss me off about flvegan and your thread being attacked like they were.
I mean geeze louise

8. Connecticut gay.com chatroom is much worse than this lounge.

or it was. I don't go there anymore. it's racist log cabin republican city and boy are/were they MEAN. :scared:

this is beanbag in comparison.

I am sure you are talking about real life situations, not online, though.

9. Actually, I was talking about DU

specifically, the Photobucket/PM scandal that drove me away for 6 months...Don't know if you heard about that. :o

But, I believe you about that forum...i can imagine. :)

-ps i took you off of pm ignore, if you want to talk at all....your call :pals:

10. maybe later.

I DO need to expound on the comments from your PM to me which I never responded to.

I am just tired of it all at this point and too lazy to type, to be honest.

I have PM phobia sometimes like i do with phones.

[bicentennial_baby]

11. hehe...

that's fine.

yeah, I was angry when I pm'd you, so i'm sure you have some scathing thoughts...But, I'm open to a dialogue, if you are.

Ok? I'll be around late night, and tommorrow morning.

:)

2. While I understand your confusion and hurt

with this, maybe it would be best to just let it go...ya know?

It's silly, the lounge has been full of " When I think about____________________." All day long.

It's pretty obvious that some things were said and that some people got their feelings hurt. ( Understandably )

I honestly think that everyone should try and let this go. Hanging on to it only cultivates a community of anger and bruised feelings.

6. I really am not hurt

I know who my friends are here.
And i am more than willing to let it go.
The snark and nastiness that came from these lighthearted threads just pisses me off.
Thank you for the kind words

4. Anyone who made negative comments about the OPs in those threads is an asshole.

Period. There's no requirement to treat people badly in the lounge after all.

7. Thank you

If you cant say anything nice than don't say anything.
