    And betrothed, I'm disgusted with most of the comments that you have posted. I don't think I've ever read such judgmental comments in my life. I'm so lucky that the girls I speak to on theknot are nothing like you...I would've never come on here for ADVICE if I would've encountered a big a bitch as you. I genuinely feel awful for your children or your future children, and I think it would be irresponsible of YOU not to invest in their future therapy sessions starting now. Because trust me when I tell you honey, they're gonna need it. ~jcaruncho2010

    YES. It's like the floodgates open, and it always feels too contrived. Like they made a list of "interesting" thread topics to start, then made an intro post so they could unleash them all.

    That's what I thought you were getting at J, and I've definitely had that "elephant" feeling about it during this AYG too. Seems like this would be the one time it's cool to talk about it, not be silent all of a sudden.

    Ha, true story.  I guess I've already said everything I wanted to say with the stuff I referring to--except for my follow up post that I just made that it was weird that everyone seemed so worked up and then just forgot about it.  I guess what I'm trying to say is I feel like there are things people want to say that they're not saying.  I don't know.

    I'm still not sure what you mean. But if it's just the mean/nice thing honestly, I'm sooo sick of talking about too nice, too mean, too snarksexswingalicious. Nothing is ever actually done about it, so it seems incredibly redundant.

    The only thing I really had to say flame-wise this week was the Kat Eyes thing, but I said it in that particular thread and it didn't seem worth re-hashing. But other than that, I have a bad TK memory. I barely remember threads from yesterday, let alone all week long.

    I can't even remember what I had for breakfast most days.  Except it's an even bigger problem that it sounds like it is, because I have the same thing for breakfast almost every single day.

    Yeah, she did some MAJOR backpeddling.  Like from "I REFUSE to deal with anyone who doesn't speak English" to "well, what I meant was, I want them to have good service and since I can't understand them, I can't provide it, so I want them to be helped by someone who can...ummm...yeah, that!"

    I agree, but I think that's what AYG/FFF-type threads are for. <em>Because</em> it's being discussed anyway, all week long in many threads, in passive-aggressive ways. If everyone agreed to drop it and it was never spoken of, then I can see bringing it up here as excessive, but that doesn't seem to be the case this time.

    ETA: Perhaps people have agreed in their own minds by now to stop talking about it, but I don't see it, so I for one was expecting something more here today.
