Ha. I was joking. Usually when someone posts a complaint on DCUM another poster will come back at them "Oh, put your big girl panties on already and stop whining", "Get a grip. This is a first world problem. You don't know how lucky you have it".....

What does that imply exactly?

It means you have no Christmas spirit. You're a Scrooge.

What if you're an atheist?

I feel sorry for women who do not understand the basic rules of punctuation and capitalization or of ending a sentence in a preposition.

And I feel sorry for the nerds that have to correct punctuation because they're unable to actually critique the content of a comment.

I think a lot of people are stressed out and in the real world they are too cowardly to air their grievances out so instead they bottle up their stress, then come home, open up a bottle of wine, boot up their computers, log on to these forums and let it all out...DCum-style.

What else could explain such behavior...??!

I don't think I'm a mean spirited poster. I tend to get called a troll a lot though. I just have different opinions then most.

Just slow down and take a brake. I wish you a productive and positive 2015.

Break. Just sayin'.

+1

Hugs, OP. There are a lot of kind and helpful souls on DCUM. I hope more of them come your way in 2015.

But in dc most are ugly and policy wonk type people, which means being disliked by them feels about as damning as being hated on by the class nerd in high school.

I guess you're not sure if you want to agree with OP or add your own snark to the discussion, huh?
