[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Almost invariably people who think their kids walk on water have awful kids. The two are not unrelated. [/quote]

Agree... also there is a huge difference between thinking that your kid is awesome and special, which obviously almost all parents do, and feeling the need to TELL people how awesome and special your kid is. [/quote]

This!

I posted earlier about my neighbor who dropped me because I didn’t worship her perfect daughter. The whole neighborhood is on to (and annoyed by) her now. A few of us were sitting in the front yard once for happy hour. She walked by, stopped to chat, and we all had to hear how not only was her daughter going to XYZ for high school, but she was accepted into the HONORS PROGRAM. We all had a good laugh over that.  Dial it back, lady. We don’t care. [/quote]

There's a common phenomenon where groups of people placate the biggest crazy in the group. Since you are the center of socialization in the neighborhood and hosting "happy hour" (gossip and booze), it's pretty safe to say people are agreeing with you because that's the path of least resistance/causes the least friction to the group. You can bet that when you aren't around they talk about what a tiny little hater you are.[/quote]

Wow you’re generalizing a lot here. We rotate who hosts happy hour. That specific day just happened to be at my house. Also, this was a mix of males and females, in case you’d like to generalize about that. 
Any other facts you’d like to make up and run with?[/quote]

The more you speak, the more you sound like a word that begins with C and ends with unt.[/quote]
 
You're one to talk. Is this your idea of good manners and being the bigger person? Because the take of some in here is that it's never ok to respond to rudeness with rudeness, but there you go. You're exactly the same.[/quote]

This is DCUM. You should expect no less. [/quote]
