    I've had enough, I'm leaving. It's so sad that what was meant to be a positive and uplifting thread has been turned into just another circus thread by a small handful of people. I sure hope this doesn't put OP off from posting more such positive threads.

    I was hoping this thread would give me some inspiration to fill out this school application that has been sitting on my desk for a month. It didn't. :ohwell:

    haha can never expect any thread on this website to stay positive... ever, unless it's got tons of hormones in it.

    Fill it out, if for no other reason than the fear of becoming a loser nothing. Wouldn't have see any examples of that in this thread.

    so what makes someone a loser?besides actually losing a game , losing weight or losing something?? hmmmmm

    By whom? You? Because I didn't say who I was talking about, did it?

    Regardless of the individual in subject, you have no real knowledge of their status in the real world; hence the "uninformed" brand. You have no clue whether they are "loser nothings" or not. Making that judgment with no real information is where the "ignorant" brand comes from.

    :yawn:

    Somebody wake Nuetellabra from his enchanted sleep. He was more entertaining than this cat.

    Yup... resorting to insults typically shows one has no REAL argument and is a basic admission of defeat/failure. But ok, stoop to insults, makes you definitely look less ignorant. :-) Emotional behavior is no substitute for rational arguments.

    Raised two stepsons preteen - age 18. And they still like me. Lol

    Once was hired for a position with only 12 openings. 250 applicants.

    I think it's obvious that mocking recovering alcoholics and dismissing other people's achievements (even if I don't personally agree with them) is so morally repugnant and reprehensible, that I see no point in wasting my time engaging in, what hopefully is an obvious troll. Otherwise, my whatever your higher power be, have mercy on your soul.

    Why do you care what other people consider an accomplishment. You also don't know anything about them, either. Please get over yourself. This is to the thread disruptors. I never even posted in the thread because of the derailment.

    For the record, I never mocked anyone... but your point is made. I never defended the guy, I was just saying it is hypocritical and ignorant to go the route of resorting to insults as opposed to rendering a logical argument.

    MFP is very lucky that you have the time and energy to around point out the hypocrisy and ignorance. It is a full time job.

    Losing 100 pounds, finding a job that's almost my absolute dream job, facing my fears and going back to school for my absolute dream job; and I'm 30 - so I've done all this in last 7 years, with my first year of school down.

    This is my greatest accomplishment today.

    Otherwise, it would be building a life that makes me happy -- including but not limited to: owning my own business, having an awesome husband and daughter, an awesome group of friends and really awesome hair. All because I filled out that application for Awesome University that was sitting on my desk.

    Awesome hair is a pretty awesome accomplishment! :)

    I'm filling it out...grumbling, but filling it out. Nursing school kicked my butt when I was getting my RN, so I'm dreading NP school.

    My greatest accomplishment thus far has been completing my BS degree while working full time as a single mom in a new state where I know no one.

    People like you make me smile so much. Go you! I don't think I could do it. You are strong!
