Recurring characters of DCUM, as written by a DCUM veteran

The Langley Elementary booster who posts poetic odes to her favorite school.

RIP the DC school lottery Swami, who got chased away by people who were offended by her use of the term "swami." This is why we can't have nice things.

More than one person, but the person/people who will respond to even the mildest criticism of a husband in the Relationship forum with "Divorce him." I don't think it's good advice, but it's reliability is a DCUM staple.

Similarly, the people who will respond to any thread about dead bedrooms, keeping sex alive in a marriage, or sex post 40 or 45 by explaining how they do it like 2-3x a day, in their 60s, no problem. I don't believe them, but their insistence is funny to me.

2-3 time a week is what raises eyebrows on dcum and I think that is normal for healthy couples even in their 60s. I am actually amazed that people stop having sex in their 30s on DCUM. I am not talking about during pregnancy, postpartum. deployment, accident or being ill. Perfectly healthy married people are not having sex. How is it even possible? Isn't easily accessible sex the best part of marriage ?

Ah yes, the “Coven of Bitter Divorcees.”

They really REALLY hate men!

I’m definitely one of the “just get a divorce” posters. I’ve been married 25 years. But I always feel bad for these posters that have significant issues with their relationship and don’t even have kids. Nothing gets better when you have kids (unless your problem is infertility). Every marital problem is magnified immensely when you have two kids. I have only two pieces of advice for the generations after me; 1) wear comfortable shoes and underwear and 2) marriage should not be hard work before you have kids. If you’re not having fun without kids, get out now before kids will tie you to this person forever. I feel like those are the only two truths I really know.

There is also the Coven of Bitter Ex-Wives [who were cheated on] and say all APs are ugly, stupid, wart-on-the-nose hoes. They can be counted on to faithfully egg on anyone with a deranged revenge fantasy. As predictable as the sun coming up tomorrow.

There used to be a woman who posted about being sad about not having mom friends. Anytime (I mean anytime) anyone would post anything about being lonely she would pop on and post about not having friends and she started many posts as well. She is married to a surgeon and they're both from the West coast and are estranged from family. They have one kid and she felt rejected from all mom's groups and then from kindergarten as well and was in therapy to try and understand why no one likes her. I feel like she must have posted 30 times over the course of years and then just disappeared. She was always identiable because she had a certain way of writing.
Anyone remember her? I wonder what happened.

Lol - and they have a HHI of $100K but have saved “plenty” for retirement and college

Is this the same woman who has not worked in 30 years, has multiple grandchildren, has boasted numerous times that she bathed all five children nightly for their entire childhoods, etc. etc. etc... and is perhaps the most smug, obnoxious person who has ever posted here?

Omg I remember that poster. Is she the one that always brags that her 5 kids got full scholarships to SEC schools? I think she was a military wife?

Yes! she never paid anything for college.

“Did you just fart while I was posting about my child’s Bar Mitzvah? Your fart reeks of antisemitism.”
The posters who respond to every post in every forum by asking if you are a SAHM.

Are you talking about the one that pops up anytime someone mentions going to college in AL/FL/TX? She goes on a screed about “our daughters”

Yes! She's also all over the political forum, but always gets deleted because she spews complete lies and insults.

Is she also crazy gun-control lady, who just can’t wait to create a new post after every newsworthy shooting, then she sock-puppets the cr@p out of her own thread? She has a serious mental problem.

Quite possibly the same nutter!

DP. Try wrapping your head around this fact: People Are Different. I have faith in you. Give it a shot.
