S/O Poll: First Post

beatlesgirl25 · November 2009

Do you remember your first post?

1) What was your first post ever?

2) If your first post was your own thread, whose thread do you remember posting in first and what was it about?

crfische · November 2009

I don't remember.
I don't remember.
I don't remember.

I do remember the first time Lala said something nice to me though. That was during the time when the plus size brides board scandal was upon us.

dreamincitrus · November 2009

I don't remember ANY of this, but I'm sure it was all pretty newbish in the beginning.

vallyhoo · November 2009

I don't remember my first post. But I remember my first page, it was from Fische because I had sharks (fish) in my sig ♥

[Deleted User] · November 2009

1) What was your first post ever? I created a thread to ask about an engagement party that my sister was throwing for me. She wanted to have a cash bar and it felt wrong to me, so I posted to get advice on the situation. I distinctly remember Tide giving me excellent advice.

2) If your first post was your own thread, whose thread do you remember posting in first and what was it about? I'm embarrassed about it now, but it was in a thread that was an argument between P2 and E. I didn't understand the board dynamics at all and made a fool of myself. Then, I lurked for a bit and figured it out.

ricksang · November 2009

I don't remember, that was 3 years ago.

crfische · November 2009

You were paging me through your sig, Vally. you know it.

arbolita · November 2009

On P&E, my first post was within a thread about the Niner board, and I was trying to say that there were a few of us there who were not crazy.

Ahhhhh memories and Shark week!

vallyhoo · November 2009

And it worked

salt78 · November 2009

Yes I remember it.

It was on Wedding Woes and I got my a$$ handed to me.

It was about how my mother was kirking out on me for wanting to have a bridesman and people told me that she could do what she wanted because she was paying.

I still don't quite see how because she was paying gave her the right to pick my bridal party, but it taught me to lurk because I didn't first. I probably did sound a bit beebee-ish in my OP though.

bbyckes · November 2009

I don't remember my first post, but on the AFSB board their was the Spongebob Squarepants debate, where I distinctly remember someone telling me to "Fuuck off and die." So, there's that.

beatlesgirl25 · November 2009

Ah, I was wondering if it might be too long ago for some of you. Okay, I'll go:

1) What was your first post ever? My first post was in my own thread, and was about how to have only family and WP kids at the wedding. I remember Tide replied (helpful) and Daff (snarky). Thankfully I did NOT get my azz handed to me... must have been an off day on P&E.

2) If your first post was your own thread, whose thread do you remember posting in first and what was it about? Whit's thread about her crappy BM who had just bought a new car, etc., but couldn't "afford" her very affordable BM dress on eBay.

Yeah, I have a weird memory like that.

tlv204 · November 2009

I don't know if it was actually my first post ever, but the first one I remember is a thread I started complaining about having a Catholic wedding. I got ripped a new one. I'm still not 100% happy we had a Catholic ceremony, it was my compromise with DH, but I was pretty darn rude about that particular religious denomination because of all the rules

Oops. Sorry again in case anyone remembers.

Koopa17 · November 2009

Ugh, my first post was on my local and they were no help whatsoever. I asked if anyone had worked with my favored venue b/c I had heard a rumor from a different vendor. All they were saying was like "any rumors from competing vendors should be taken with a grain of salt" blah blah. That's not fucking helpful at all, obviously I know this.

[Deleted User] · November 2009

"Fuuck off and die."

This made me laugh and cry at the same time.

missy68 · November 2009

I remember answering a post of Fishy's, and then her saying she'd never seen me post here before

I thought, "but, but, but.....!!!"

I remember posting my own first thread, but I don't recall what the subject was.

crfische · November 2009

Oooppppyyy...sorry, Missy.

I'm not the most observant of people, you can ask my mom.

she painted my room from pink to green one day and I didn't notice.

goheels05 · November 2009

I don't remember my very first post. The first post I remember, the OP was saying she was protestant and her FI was Catholic, and she wanted advice on where to get married. Bellhurstbride, who I am now very good friends with, said I was an idiot and didn't know what I was talking about. So I went into lurkdom for a few weeks and came back with a new SN.

beatlesgirl25 · November 2009

I'm surprised that some of you got flamed in the beginning... you seem really savvy. Boy, I really did luck out.

sarabellam · November 2009

I don't remember what board it was on (nuptual nightmares maybe?), but it was a question about how to exclude 1 child from a family and not the other children. I got (gasp!) validated in my desire to exclude one particular nephew of mine.

Wait, seriously? The person who pays has veto power over the bridal power? I think that is taking it too far. Sure they get a say over location & menu, but they can't say who your closest friends are.

The first post I remember was a thread started by a girl from Texas who wanted a vegetarian reception. I was in the minority on that fight, but I still stuck around.

Stackeye210 · November 2009

bbycks - cacoff.........how does a spong bod post lead to anyone saying fuuuck off and die?

bbyckes · November 2009

Do you remember the BK commercial, "I like square butts" using the old Sir Mix-A-Lot song, well, I thought it was funny. The majority disagreed with me. I found out that I was a horrible parent who thought it was okay to present sexually indecent material to children. Hence, the eff off and die comment.

Oh, well that makes sense then. You should be ashamed of yourself. I feel sorry for your FI and kids.

TheSaltyPeanut · November 2009

First post was a wording question. Everyone was very helpful, I specifically remember Dani writing a kind suggestion.

One of the first times I got involved with a thread was a poll amoro started and she flamed the piss out of me because I referred to Europe as a "place." It's all good though

baystateapple · November 2009

My first post was asking how to politely ask guests not to use flash photography at the wedding ceremony and reception, because my little sister/MOH has epilepsy.

I don't remember what thread I first posted in that was not mine.

salt78 · November 2009

I remember when SaltyP got here because we had a rap battle.

SnShne322 · November 2009

1) What was your first post ever? I'm not sure about that.

2) If your first post was your own thread, whose thread do you remember posting in first and what was it about? My first thread was on my month board. I posted about school related things and weddings. I got flamed big time because I wanted an opinion about taking a semester off to get married (we run 8 weeks so it wasn't TOO big of a deal). It did get some honest opinions, but I was treated a little like an idiot because "getting married isn't nearly as important as school" I sort of resented that statement because I didn't think it rang true for every person. But whatever, I did end up taking their advice anyway.

squirrly · November 2009

I don't have a clue about my first actual post. But, I had been on here & WeddingChannel's message boards back in 02-03 when I was previously engaged, so I had a better idea of lurkdom & such.

My first OP was a page to Dani asking about her officiant's web page. It was pretty innocuous, and she was quite helpful.

smokeybailey · November 2009

My first thread was about wearing my mom's wedding dress to her 40th anniversary renewal in Vegas with Elvis. My sister and I thought it would be fun, but a lot of ladies here thought it was horrible. I remember BGB calling me an AW.

I ended up wearing it and my mom (and dad) loved it. Since the other girls were doing a 1960's thing it really worked out. It was really short though! How my mom wore it at 6' tall is beyond me...
