I'm much meaner on DCUM than IRL. AMA.

I feel bad for you puppets who come here to bully others.

Actually, no I don't.

Get a life.

How are you different, with your name-calling, passive-aggressive sarcasm, and dismissive attitude? Please explain.

OP - answer this: were you ever bullied as a child? or, maybe not bullied, but did you get picked on by mean kids?

Nope, never. My brother was, though.

Do you get backlash from other posters for saying mean things?

Not sure - I was pretty active in the thread where the SAHM said she didn't want to raise her kids to be entitled brats living off of someone else.

Way for her to set the example LOL

That was my thought - OP

You're a jerk, OP. It's people like you that have been ruining DCUM for me.

You are unoriginal and uninteresting. We all do that.

Well then you're as awful as I am, according to the posters on this thread. Cheers! I don't think it's fascinating either, and am surprised the thread's this long.

Because I don't like hypocrisy? Cool.

That's the thing though. If you read my OP, you'll see that I'm really NOT insecure. I'm not perfect - hey, judgmental obviously! - but insecurity isn't something I struggle with. Which makes me wonder why I do this.

I also don't curse on DCUM, though I do IRL. Like poor grammar and spelling, it renders posts irrelevant IMO.

Just because you said you're not insecure in your OP, doesn't mean you're not. I assume that you are very insecure. Also, pointing out someone's poor grammar and spelling just means that you have nothing to add to the discussion. Do you really think you have to have perfect grammar to offer advice on parenting or anything else (except for grammar, of course).

Why does someone have to be insecure to have strong opinions? I genuinely don't get why that's a go-to. Sure, say I'm bitchy or judgmental or snooty - that makes more sense. But how does insecure even play in?

I have lots of strong opinions. About myself, my children, my family. But what another family does isn't really that interesting to me because I don't see how it affects me. One reason people care about what others do is because they see it as a judgment of what they do. For instance, you admittedly don't support SAHMs. While working is certainly a fine choice, there is no reason to have such strong opinions about what others do, unless you aren't really secure in your own decisions and use it as a defense mechanism - insult others to make you feel mor superior about your own life.

I have trouble responding to posts like this, that try to be well-written and edgy but fail completely. Of course there are people meaner and smarter than I. When did I say otherwise? And I'm actually pretty funny, though there hasn't been much chance to show that on this thread

Oh please, you had no trouble posting a bitchy response. IMO, funny and truly sarcastic posters don't look for a chance to demonstrate their skill, sadly, you are not one if them. And it's sad, because many dull meanies turn this site into yet another babycenter.

But this is just false in my case - I have the means (personal assets, not my husband's) to be a SAHM if I chose to. I have no doubt that it's the right choice for me. Just because something doesn't affect you, doesn't mean you can't have opinions about it. I'm not pregnant and don't plan to be, but I feel strongly that women should have the right to abort if they choose. I'm not low-income, but I believe strongly in promoting educational experiences for those who might not have access to them financially. On and on.

OP, let's face it. You are insecure and have a boring life. Owning up to it is the first step. You are not unique on DCUM and I hate to tell you, but, your snarkiness doesn't make anyone feed bad about themselves. People might get angry for a few minutes but in the end, you are the one left wondering how they felt about what you said. It just takes more time away from your already vacuous existence.

Looking to demonstrate? What are you even talking about?

Who said I was unique? Of course I'm not! And I don't care if people get angry, or if they don't. Angering people isn't my intention, and I don't give a second thought to what people think about what I say. I just say things to say them. I agree my life is boring and I feel very lucky.

Was that an attempt at humor? Accept it, you are not funny, just a jerk.
