    How nice of you to even take the seconds out of your day to respond to them. I wouldn't have. What a snide b*tch. Can't she find anything better to do then try to piss someone else off. Clearly she is sad and lonely. I like your pic btw. It's your profile and you can post anything you want on it.

    This is just an annoyed rant, for those of you that care to read through it.
    I received a message from someone here on MFP with whom I have had no prior contact. And they told me to think about changing my profile picture. I wish I could appreciate such an effort, but I really do not. I was informed by this person that people cannot take me seriously, and that I should consider not doing this to myself. I am completely baffled!
    I told this person that the picture is meant to remind people not to take things to seriously. How ironic, huh? Honestly this website is awesome, and I have been fortunate enough to encounter some pretty nice people that do not judge me over this. That being said, I really do not care if people can't take me seriously on a forum. You will most likely NEVER ever meet me. I am a very career and goal oriented young woman. I am educated, and I am dedicated to my family, education and health. My presence on this website says at least that much. Messages telling me that I am a "child" and that I am doing something terrible to myself are what I believe to be attempts to bully and harass. Although some may see this as a form of advice, or that they are trying to inform me of how to better improve my image online, it really is not. It just isn't. It's extremely condescending. If this person sends me a third message, I will consider it harassment.

    Just keep in mind there is a sad segment of the population that suffers from a horrible ailment in which they are deprived of a sense of humor.

    Do not be offended by them. They need our pity, our patience and our charity.

    Your photo is cute and funny. I would say I don't judge one's intelligence based on the profile photo, but that would be a lie. Someone who would put up a photo such as yours is probably very smart and certainly someone I wouldn't mind getting to know.

    We didn't go back and forth, I was just showing you what was sent to me in response to that thread.

    Makes "him" seem even more ignorant that he would take to attacking a person and their picture as opposed to finding a logical argument or just in general pointing out that he found what she was saying or her tone unfair. I mean really, instead of discussing the topic at hand a person takes to bashing another person's profile picture? There is a rediculousness to that outside of my comprehension. It's like when you're kids and the best arguement a person can come up with is "Yeah, well, your face" (said in the mopiest tone your mind can muster) *kicks rocks*

    You can only block someone after they send you a message.

    What she has neglected to tell everyone, is that the person who sent it to her did it in response to a thread she was posting on. Someone wrote in requesting info about weight loss surgery and she proceeded to bash a young girl for choosing surgery. Her opinions were harsh and she chose to be obnoxious. The original posters questions were forgotten and the thread was completely taken off subject.

    So just because someone disagrees with you in a public forum, that makes it ok to personally insult them?

    For starters, it is against the rules to bring up an old thread in a current thread and secondly, how is her receiving nasty PM's acceptable per past "possible" behavior? It sounds as if you are saying it is acceptable, and its not. If someone felt she was "bashing" someone else in a thread, they should have reported her, rather than bash her in multiple PM's.

    Totally with you on this one. Two wrongs don't make it right!!

    I read that thread. I don't really see where she attacked anyone. She offered an informed opinion based on her experiences and someone with a different opinion lashed out at her. She didn't attack the OP at all and the OP thanked her for her opinion.
