[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So much hatefulness and anger on this thread. [/quote]

I think that is a bit strong and just adds fuel to the fire.  There are a few PPs that go too far, but there also are a number of perspectives shared that people could gain something from if they'd stop being defensive for a minute and projecting their own stuff all over the other PPs.

The simple answer to OP's questions are, yes, OP is petty, but, of course, she is under no obligation to help the neighbor.  The last part is true whether she's petty or not.

The people defending her FB post are just as tone-deaf as she is.  The fact is that most people of her age work because they have to and, in some cases, because they want to.  In jobs outside the home, you don't get four hours in the middle of the day to yourself, so the majority of people seeing her post are going to roll their eyes at it.  Her FB post was braggy and in poor taste.  Was the neighbor's response equally tasteless?  It would appear so on the face of things.  However, based on OPs subsequent responses, she sound like a real pill.  Maybe the neighbor had a bad moment in response to her constant BS.  Maybe he's just stupid with his humor.  We don't know, we don't know him, we don't know her.  All we have to go on is her OP which is biased in her favor.  The wailing about how awful his joke is are really overboard.    [/quote]

OP, I have no sympathy for you. You are getting offended by some loser who is a jerk AND has a failed marriage AND needs help with childcare? :lol:  :lol:  :lol:  Get off FB.

And, refuse to help this a-hole. [/quote]
