Yes, and that's why she's asking it on her club board. If you don't like what someone says, say it there. Don't take it to other boards just to make fun of that person. I don't have anything personally against AATB, that just rubbed me the wrong way. Posted by baystateapple[/QUOTE]
That bothered me too. And to be perfectly honest: I'm not convinced that girl on your club board would have been flamed on an international board. She fully recognized and admitted that her issues with her FI's bachelor party were exactly that: HER issues. Even E tends to be supportive of people who own up to their shortcomings and ask for help overcoming them.
I consider myself more or less bi-boardal, but some of the new regs on SB -- not those who migrated from E, who I have no issues with, but the previous lurkers they attracted -- really annoy me.
In other news: I flame Kimheartscott for not being around much (even if her FI did just come home from Africa). I heart that girl.

Of course, right afterwords, I agreed with her and here I am participating, so I guess that makes us both hypocrites.
But seriously, once someone is someone who <strong>STARTS</strong> FFF, I can never really look at them the same again. Ew.

My birth mom had three biological children and adopted a fourth. She's probably most selfless person I've ever met -- often to her detriment. I mean, the woman gave her ex-husband's second ex-wife (the one he cheated on her with!) $3,000 to get caught up on the rent so my half-siblings' half-siblings wouldn't end up homeless. She still helps those kids whenever she can, in spite of the fact that her loser ex-husband fathered two of them while they were still married.

I accept the flame again. And if it helps we didn't know half of what we know today, so I don't think your mom was a selfish person at all (at least for that reason).

I flame Mandysmear for jumping on Ak's fi and calling him a "douchebag" for making a comment that didn't even bother AK all that much. It was a comment that would have bugged the crap out of Mandy, but if it doesn't push AK's buttons, how does that make her fi a douchebag? Our fi/H's tend to know what is or isn't a big issue to us. Things that are a huge issue to Mandy do not necessarily = things that are a huge issue to everyone.

Not that there was anything wrong about a thread about jeans. It was just a slow day yesterday.
