Snarky Brides

wow. there is a difference between snarky and just plain cold-hearted and cruel!

[QUOTE]My FMIL was in town this past weekend and found her attire for the wedding while I was with her. It is ugly and doesn't fit (she thinks she is going to lose a ton of weight). I lied and told her that I liked it. Since I can "snark" here, I just want to say- my mom is going to look SO much better.[/QUOTE]

this was from another knottie on a previous thread......this is sooo mean and cruel hearted! it made me cry!

anyone else agree? there is a BIG difference between snarky and just plain COLD-HEARTED AND CRUEL.

    While I do think that was a shitty thing for that poster to say, if thats making you cry you need to buck up a little bit.

  • Yeah OP, I caught your double post at the end of that thread. ;)

    I seriously thought this thread was going to be another one complaining about how mean we all are. Whew!

    That poster was a douche though, yes.

    Posted by futurepivko[/QUOTE]

    [QUOTE]sorry for being sensitive. i actually LIKE my FMIL. i was thinking of her when i read this. she has self-esteem issues about her weight and the fact that she gets blood clots that prevent her from doing things, etc. and other health issues (and shes a neonatal nurse!!!!!!) and she was talking about finding a dress that flatters her, because she wants to feel good on our wedding day. she also said she doesnt usually wear dresses...just pants....and wants to wear a dress and feel good about herself. I would never lie to her or put her in something that lowers her self-esteem even MORE.

    Thats why that post made me cry, and I KNOW the majority agreed this person was a complete b*&#h.

    That post just hit really hard[/QUOTE]

    [QUOTE]no no no......i dont think everyone is mean!

    well...maybe for a few, but really no!


    and sorry for the double posting originally......both of those postings made me really angry!!! how people can do that to their FMIL??? I dont know......its true that when you marry your FI you marry into their family![/QUOTE]

    Are you for real? Nebb wasn't defending that poster in any way, shape or form. She agreed with you. She just said you crying about someone being a douche to their FMIL makes you a little overly sensitive. You need to dial it down a notch or 10.

    Whoa there. Attacking a poster's looks is NEVER okay on this board, and is against Knot regulations. Dude, what is your deal? You come here complaining about a crappy poster, people <em>agree</em> with you, and now you've turned against us all because why? I'm starting to doubt that you are real.

    You're a moron.  Lisa Frank was in reference to the rainbows and puppies and fluff that you seem to be interested in.  Not your appearance.  Has anyone actually ever seen Lisa Frank??

  • Pivko - it's great that you love your FMIL and think she's a fabulous person, but not everyone feels that way about their inlaws. Your reality doesn't translate to everyone on here, so give it a rest FFS. And if you're so tenderhearted that some FMIL trash-talking is going to make you cry, you're in for a very rude awakening one day when that bubble you live in bursts.
  • And my hair is FABULOUS.  I saw your pics hunny.  If I were you I would not be throwing hair stones.
