re: was i being unreasonable?

Abba, would you get upset if someone tells you to put the cats or w/e animals you have away, before entering your house?

re: was i being unreasonable?

Teenagers react in paradoxical ways. She knows she is being a jerk but she is acting like the injured party to save face. And there isn't a school-aged kid in this country who doesn't know about the PB allergy thing, believe me.

My wonderful teenager gets like this sometimes and I have to keep reminding myself that this, too, shall pass. Like a kidney stone.

You were right, she was wrong, she's a jerk now but (let's hope) she won't always be one, and there is no talking her out of this one.

I'm still in disbelief that people can so easily be that inconsiderate when it has to do with someone's health. It's not as if you were just asking for the heck of it; there was a medical reason behind it.

You know, you simply don't know me. I have always been nice to you, and I get this really hateful comments from you, and the truth is that you don't know me. I guess from now on, I will just ignore w/e you say, because it seems like you dislike me because Im 'me' and always have something negative or derogatory to say toward my person. I truly think I deserve an apology, but I know I will never get it.

I was just asking because maybe Abba did something toward them w/o realizing and they might have held the grudge.

Those assumptions are irresponsable, I forgot to add that. Don't put words in my mouth. Thanks.

re: was i being unreasonable?

lol, you have GOT to be kidding me.

If that is what you meant, that's what you would have asked. You're just trying to cover your ass.

I find your comment to be exactly the kind of unacceptable, narrow, lazy, offensive insensitivity that I was talking about in my previous posts. It's not about being ticked off that someone causes you an inconvenience -- not when the issue is health. Given the nature of your comment and everything else I've expressed in this thread, no, you do not deserve an apology, and you are right, you will not get it. It was just the type of mindset I was talking about. I made no assumptions. I read the words on the screen. Do not try to make the fact that you got caught into my fault. Playing victim is transparent.

I know what you put out on this board; that's all I have to go on, is it not? That's the second time I've seen this excuse on the boards today for invalidating a disagreement, and it's lame. I don't know in whose book making fun of people for their opinions when they're not the same as yours is considered "niceness," either, but I'm certainly not in the mood to get into a debate of who did what to whom first. I don't care that much.

re: was i being unreasonable?

Abba, family is family...but there comes a time when one must see their family members for what they are. I used to defend my cousin when people called him a ****until he'd done enough to prove he really was a prick. It only takes so many occurences of selfishness (which your cousin and friend have displayed a major example of) until you see them for what they really can be.

ETA, i edited my post anyway due your request.

re: was i being unreasonable?

i understand that compleatly... i have an aunt (different aunt) that you can call whatever you'd like and i'll agree with you and join in on the fun.

but this is the first time she's ever done anything like this to me. it's not like she does things like this over and over and i defend her each time.

re: was i being unreasonable?

I am not kidding, as I said before, you just don't know me.
If you have any issue, feel free to PM me, which you won't because you are a coward who hides behind a computer and doesn't even dare to show what you look like. Why should I be bothered?
I am not covering anything, your assumptions are irresponsable. You are proving everything I said earlier. And really, I have LESS interest in discussing anything with you.

re: was i being unreasonable?

Abba you haven't talked to her since right? She won't really talk to you?

Maybe you should write an e-mail or a letter or even call her and explain that it's not that you wanted her to get in trouble or anything like that, it's just that her behavior caught you off guard and it might have hurt your feelings. If she says it wasn't that big of a deal, it's time to teach her a lesson and explain what the big deal is exactly.

re: was i being unreasonable?

can someone explain to me how this turned into a spat between LTE and Muscle (don't start on me, I'm kinda fond of you both)?
Just curious.

i have talked to her sinc ethe incident and everything was ok between us untill her mom found out what her and her friend did. and it's not like i told my mom like i was "telling on her" i just mentioned it to her, and my mom just mentioned it to her sister.

re: was i being unreasonable?

Abba, I'm very sorry you had to go through something like that. As someone who has allergies as well, I completely sympathize with you.

Oh, bullsh*t:

"Abba, would you get upset if someone tells you to put the cats or w/e animals you have away, before entering your house"

You were asking to insinuate that if Abba doesn't stick her cats outside for someone's allergies, she's just as bad as her cousin. It didn't work because she had.

re: was i being unreasonable?

Right I understand that. But maybe she doesn't. You should explain that to her. It's not like you were telling on her, you were just having conversation with your mother and mentioned it. No big.

re: was i being unreasonable?

Guido, is just that some people are irresponsable and think they know you, and they just don't.
I have never met this person, yet, she/he thinks that knows who I am, and what I "really" meant in one of my posts. Please.

re: was i being unreasonable?

Irresponsible?

Muscle, you're claiming that what you see in Emcee's posts is indicative of the "real" her, then turn around and say she doesn't see the "real" you from yours. You can't accuse someone of something you're clearly doing yourself.

re: was i being unreasonable?

Ok, ok...don't get snarky with me. I don't know you, or what point you intended to get across in your question. If someone else thinks they got you figured out..well then, c'est la vie. I just thought I'd ask, forgive me for getting involved. I'll go play in traffic now.

re: was i being unreasonable?

Right, because a PM would automatically reveal my identity. The people who I choose to share that information with have it.

I'm thoroughly amused at the way you refuse to actually take on the task at hand, but rather bring up things that are completely and totally irrelevant. In my book, that just means that I win, because it shows that you have no way whatsoever to weasel out of what you did. You know you f*cked up, and to add to that, you lied and tried to make ME look like an idiot who just up and randomly assumed something out of nowhere in hopes that people wouldn't see what you did. This has nothing to do with knowing you or not knowing you. You're right, I don't know you. I never claimed that I did -- I base my opinion of you on what you put out on the internet, as I said before. That's the way it goes. But still, this has absolutely nothing to do with knowing anything about you outside of the internet. It's about WHAT YOU SAID, and that yes, based upon many of my previous experiences with you, such insensitivity was not a surprise. It does not shock me that you would say something lik that, and this is about the fact that you made a sh*tty, insensitive offensive comment. This has even LESS to do with how I choose to handle how much I'm comfortable with revealing on the internet. You say I'm a coward for not posting a photo? I could say you're an idiot for posting a photo in the internet, which some people find pretty unsafe.

You keep repeating that I was "irresponsable" [sic], and I haven't the foggiest how reading the words on the screen and seeing your closed-minded, pathetic comment for what it really was was "irresponsible." Everyone can see through the fact that you're just looking for the quickest way you can find to make it look like you're totally innocent, and I'm just nuts. Saying I'm making irresponsible assumptions doesn't even make any SENSE -- there was nothing to assume -- nor does this incessant whine of "she doesn't really know me!!" What the hell do you MEAN by those comments in this context? They have nothing to do with this. They're just defaults. They're meaningless, you're just trying to wiggle out of this by making me look like a big, bad bully who's "assuming" things about you and being mean to you when you did nothing wrong. You're just throwing arbitrary negative things, like that I don't "really" know you, out there because you have nothing else to stand on in order to make yourself look better. If you can convince everyone that I'm somehow irresonsible, then that takes the blame off of you, right? There was nothing to be irresponsible ABOUT. There was nothing to assume. What you meant was perfectly clear.

The implication of your comment on this thread is inexcusable. Maybe some of our debates have been fun and games, or tongue in cheek, but this was offensive and out-of-line. Your attitude, your ignorance and your lack of logic have pissed me off for a long time, but that's all stuff you can laugh off at the end of the day. Saying something so hugely offensive and then, to go further, not owning up to it, but trying to weasel out of it or lay the blame on someone else? Disgraceful. Leave me alone.
