    I honestly don't know how you do it. Maybe it is the phentermine. Is one of the side effects the ability to say the same thing over and over again and then when you get really really frustrated and it shows have the tolerance to be criticized for it? Personally, I really liked your bi-lingual response. Certainly creative.

    Boredom....at least I think. Actually...I am going to see if I can keep this thread going for the next 3 years and have it listed in the longest and most absurd post...which looks like cake at this point.

    I'm amused that you think your silliness is anywhere near impressive enough to make any manner of MFP history.

    I promise everyone else is minimally invested and mostly in for the lols/in hopes of winding you up. I know I only pop in to read your responses and giggle.

    That awkward moment when you realize a post has been made to in a menial attempt elevate to feel smug....congrats...it is yours...feel good and be amused....it is free.

    I was also invested in a possible case study....but now I think it will be a drinking game...

    For every time someone gives an unsolicited opinion unrelated to the OP -- One drink
    For every time someone says phentermine is addictive -- Two drinks
    For ever time someone says phentermine is speed -- Three Drinks
    For every time someone says "I don't know why you are asking for advice when you are going to do what you want to do anyway" -- Four drinks
    And if you are someone who swore they would not look at this thread again...but decided to anyway (and you know who you are) -- Five Drinks
    If you posted again...after you swore you would not -- 10 Drinks

    I'm not entirely sure I understood what you're trying to say. Where's Jof, he's good at figuring out tangled English.


    Edit: are you saying I post to feel smug? Silly lady, I don't post to feel smug I post for personal amusement. I live in a constant state of smug, I don't need mfp for that.

    I never said I wouldn't post again. I think those first four drinks hit you hard.

    On what level? Are we not doing the exact same thing: enjoying a derailed thread? Why would that be sadder for me than for you?

    What an odd statement.

    That you have committed yourself in it for the "long haul" as you put it....very sad...it isn't even your OP....wow...just...WOW.

    Do you get snarky, snide and smug with people on other discussion boards and "long haul" it with them...or just My Fit Pal? because...there are support groups in the way of discussion boards for that as well....just sayin....

    Why does it upset you that she's checking in a thread? Long haul or not?

    ETA: I highly suggest you look over the community guidelines unless you aren't planning on participating on the forums for "the long haul"

  • Why does it upset you that she's checking in a thread? Long haul or not?

    Not upset at all (need to put a drink number people making assumptions as well)

    But I know a cyber bully when I come across them.....

    p.s. she's not

    I have and have been well within the guidelines...although others have certainly skirted it...including some people that continue to post now...thus my advice to people who do not have anything nice to say or continue to harass the OP ....do not post...and refer to the CG.

    Didn't you commit yourself to trying to make this the longest thread ever, running for 3 years? Again, you're doing the same thing I am. Is your stance that being the OP gives you magical protection from your perception of "sad"?

    How curious.

    And yes, I also frequent video game forums when I have time. I find people interesting and people are truly themselves when anonymous on the internet. It's the best place to people watch and provoke honest response.

    For example I'm clearly a sarcastic, mean, and snarky (but always honest) witch. My posting style makes that obvious.

    Am I bullying you? In what way? By continuing to post? Because I called your plan to make this thread span 3 years silly? I haven't expressed any manner of opinion about your Phen use or offered any manner of unwanted advice. Where does the bully aspects come in?

    Good thing I haven't been mean or snarky in a way the breaks the rules. At best you could say I'm further derailing a thread that the OP has already stated is derailed.
