It looks familiar in here

BecW2be

If we're all over the OB/clique drama, then why are we still talking about it? I was enjoying the chatter of SB without the stupid No Kids!!!!!! posts and OB bullsh!t. Now it's on this board too. Back to Flowers and DIY, I guess.

I don't think anyone ever said you were a "mean girls clique" Cew.

I think Sucrets and Ricks are the only other ones I've seen specifically post about OBs and such.

It's pretty clear who are friends on the board, who follows each other around, etc. 

danieliza1127

Don't worry Bec, I'm not staying.   Sorry to disrupt your flow.

I like posting on both. I'm not trying to look like a badass or anything but I do enjoy a little stupid here and there. I also board hop everywhere when it gets slow.

I know. But I do think the general consensus is that cliques are not a good thing. Or maybe that's just my spin on it.

That's not at all what I meant. You asked why I'm (well, I assume I'm an E reg) posting more here, and I told you. I like to board surf, and I'm over the constant stupid questions about kids and invites and the subsequent "*head desk*" comments to follow. I like posting on any board. That Cew is here, along with Kiki and some others I like to talk to, means I post here. And you can too, for as long as you like and me not wondering about it.

[QUOTE]opw4q-TU_SROGJsdfiopgjW)_E%U(RJPSERJ~~!~~~!!!!  KNOT.  STOP EATING MY POSTS! <strong>What I was about to say was... that with all of the talk about cliques, I found it interesting that no one could (or would) identify them when asked.</strong>  I followed that post, because I'm oblivious and was geniunely interested in seeing whom these perceived cliques consisted of (and to see if I was unknowingly a part of one).  The only one that I remember being identified was the Heels/Bec/Cew relationship, and I myself have never seen that as a clique.  <strong>All of the sudden it went from, "Yes, there are DEFINITELY cliques on this board!" to "Well, I guess that there aren't REALLY cliques..."</strong>

::nods::

I kind of think that those who do have their panties in a twist about cliques didn't want to name names because they feared repercussions.

When I think of cliques on TK, I think of how this board used to be.  No one could post over here without the regs jumping all over you, even if you weren't being lame.  I don't see that happening on E, so I don't get the problem.  People are naturally going to like some people more than others, just like IRL.  You don't cry to your boss at work that there are cliques just because two of your coworkers really hit it off with each other and are BFFs and you don't have that much in common with them.  That's just how it is.

Holy Jesus, Sucrets. Emma is SO flipping adorable!!!

Oh goodness, Sucrets, what a gorgeous baby.  So so so so sweet!  *(ducks away again)*

Whenever I am feeling bad about myself I like to pop in here and read some threads.  Because there's always one where I can go "Damn, at least I'm not THAT chick." And then I feel better.

My point is the narcissism of thinking that this board wouldn't continue to exist after the old SBs jumped ship.  Yeah, SB was a wasteland for months.  Newbs would come in and make horrible attempts at snark.  But if people are using it again, what do you care? 

I wish they would change the title back to "Advise from Brides."  The trolls are boring. 

goheels05

Ah, and the bat signal is up.  Could you be any more predictable? 

SarahBethBR

You know, there are very few people whose username's immediately tell me that what I'm about to read will be completely illogical.

Goheels may have been the first to ever make that list.  And every time I see her, she moves right on up to the top.

goheels05

You are a moron, SarahBeth.  The reason I move to the top of your list is because you are so stupid that you think you and your crew are the only people who can make jokes and you take everything I say literally. 

Case in point:

Yeah, it looks like I'm not the only one who can't discern a joke when they see one.  (Psst.  That was one.)

[Deleted User]

So, if it's not funny, is it still a joke? Kind of like the tree in the woods thing? Just want to make sure we're all of the same page.

goheels05

Of course it was.  You probably had that one in your pocket for months just waiting for the opportunity to use it.  Sort of like your comment above, since that seems to be the only thing you ever have to say.

I don't get the point in going over here if everyone from E is going to follow anyway.

SarahBethBR

I'm sorry, I'm busy trying to think of another snide comment for mid-August.  Can't talk right now.

kikibaby

P2- Today's the first day it's been mainly E folks.  The last few days have been a nice mix of some people from E and some newer people on this board (xoxo, sadie, andy...).  It is looking a lot like E today, though.

ETA: Although, according to the old regs of this board, we're just P&E rejects over here.
