Who else is just utterly sick of obnoxious people on these boards? I mean really these boards are here for suggestions and help, correct? Not to bash each others' ideas and thoughts.

Re: Obnoxious Brides
Brides have enough people blowing sunshine up their skirts. It makes for entitled behavior. Having a community that will tell the unvarnished truth is really valuable if you want to plan a great wedding, be a gracious and thoughtful host, and attend to your guest's comfort as a first priority.
I think you will find that defensive responses and tantrums get short shrift here. Seeking information and being open to the answers, without accusing people of bullying or bashing when they are trying to help you not make an ass out of yourself, is met with open arms.
I really could have gotten on board with that thread. This one though? Meh.
Instead, it's one of those Change The World One Knottie At A Time threads.
I'm sure yours is going to be The Thread. The one that changes us all. The one that makes us see the error of our ways, and turns us to the Light Side.
Oh wait. The Dark Side has
Thank you, Artemis Moon, for your thoughtful and deeply considered, not at all futile or ridiculous, rhetorical question. I see now you have a genuine desire to save us Knotties from ourselves. If only someone had criticized us sooner! No one has ever said these boards should only be "helpful" before and we should not tell anyone their ideas are bad! This is a brand new concept!
Oh ye Giant Spaghetti Monster in the Sky, I repent of my online community-based sins of sweet, sweet honesty and truth-telling. I now see the light! I ask your forgiveness, Oh Great Spaghetti Monster, that I might seek atonement.
Henceforth these boards shall be purely for blowing rainbows up the asses of unicorns.
Live fast, die young. Bad Girls do it well. Suki Zuki.

I think I might try to BASE jump off my house. Will a plastic grocery bag be a sufficient parachute? I'm doing it, so supportive responses only.
Thank you, OMH, for proving OP's point! We do need new and special blood! You have not caught up with the times at all!! There is NO point in robbing a 7-Eleven. You can set up a GoFundME registry. Wait. You can volunTOLD someone to set up a GoFundME registry for you. If that does not provide enough cash, make sure you TELL your wedding party to set up a fundraising event to offset any other potential costs....except your honeymoon, because of course your HoneyFund will take care of that silly burden.
Do you see how effective my special and supportive reply was for you? Of course you don't. You OMH's have your heads stuck in the 70's, 80's, 90's, and 00's. We are the UNTRADITIONAL brides, where entitlement reigns and etiquette dies. (And where we don't know the difference between untraditional, offbeat, and rude.) But then again, we don't care!
