Or the angry child support dad who always insists ex-wives are alienating dads and the kids should drop everything to see their dads once a month?

He is nuts. Especially on the thread about the 17 y/o boy.

That’s a new one. We have the UVA, UMD, Northeastern nutters. Haven’t seen a w&m one yet.

Why are the same schools raised again and again - and why do you feel the need to attack posters who defend those schools?

Sounds like you are the "nutter".

Chill out.

I don’t do any of those things. Just pointing out my observations.

I'm chill. But I do think that grown adults who have to comment on other people's choices are not so chill, and have serious issues. My neighbor was just admitted to Harvard. I can't imagine the work it took for them to do so, I am proud of my neighbor for basically winning the lottery. It would never occur to me to come to DCUM and vent my frustration that my DC was not admitted to Harvard.

Does a grown adult who comes to DCUM to comment on another person's choice of college (or choice of fill in the blank here) sound sane to you?

People who get into Harvard don't come here to vent about those admitted to GMU. Think about it.

You all sound insane.

It is insane for posters to disparage schools they or their children did not attend. It is not insane to refrain from posting about schools you or your child did not attend.

Fixed that for you.

Again, I don’t do any of those things. I was just pointing out my observations as a lurker. Are you this off-base and hostile on that forum too?

The “Ask me how I know lady” that has serious mommy issues.

The poster who constantly and immediately posts about any gun shootings in the Political forum. Over and over.

DP. If you're a regular on the College forum, you recognize the nuts to which PP is referring. They are completely over-the-top in their promotion / boosterism of those schools. Kind of sounds like you might be one of them...

What’s a gun shooting? Is it different from a shooting?

The deliberately obtuse poster who thinks s/he is cute.

Nuts and really really annoying. His insistent capitalization (always referring to the parents as Mom and Dad rather than eg OP and her husband, the parents, etc) at least makes him easily identifiable but it’s still really annoying when he succeeds in derailing a thread.

Not sure why anyone who claimed to "not do any of those things" would be so invested in this discussion.

No. But you do not have to derail college threads, or posts disingenuous threads feigning interest in colleges you want to disparage, because your posts subtract from the legitimacy of the college forum. Go fight your internal demons in your psychiatrist's office. Stop boring us with the same old schtick.

Yes, and I wish people would stop responding in good faith to their inane questions.

PP here and I agree with you. But you really can’t deny that the aggressive boosters are just as annoying.

One thing that bugs me almost as much as troll posters are the people who respond to them. Just report trolls!
