    Because I see so much arguing over the "right" way to do things, and people putting each other down, I tend to avoid the message boards and find information elsewhere. It's a shame, because we are all here with the same goal: to live a healthier lifestyle.

    I wish I saw more people supporting each other and less "no, you're stupid for following that diet" and arguing over what is "right". We're all different - we have different body chemistry and genetic makeup and lifestyles. There is no right diet, no magic exercise. It's trial and error to find what works for each of us.

    I think that when people are searching for an answer to something, the people who respond to it can do it in a manner where they don't sound like a complete jerk. There seems to be a lot of arrogance here. We're all here for a common goal, so we don't need to act superior to others, and support each other. Also, I think that if someone expresses an opinion, that if you don't agree with it or it pisses you off, just move on. No point in attacking someone. Everyone is allowed to their opinion, and the ability to express it without the fear of being attacked or persecuted. Let's all play nice!!!

    ^^^ This. :glasses: :happy: :bigsmile:

    This is why I am having to clean up my friends list on a regular basis. I am someone who likes to give support but I like the same. Add me if you need someone who thinks the way you do!
    It really pisses me off when people ask for friends and say they are looking for someone who will support them and they will do the same...Then, days and weeks pass by and you are commenting on their status yet they don't say anything on your status about your progess...Look on their page and see that they respond to a few choice friends every now and then...Hate wasting my time going and deleting them and having to see their information fill up my page everyday...It really sucks....Honestly, I'm having a hard time finding friends that are dedicated to giving me the same support as I give them...AND, IT PISSES ME OFF!!!!
    ....I agree smdh :\ lol

    On the other hand... there's people who think that accepting a friend request is the equivalent of signing adoption papers for a homeless pet.... that you're legally bound to motivate and support them no matter what. :laugh:

    Seeing how I hold my tongue every 999/1000 times, I'm going to go ahead and take this opportunity to b*tch a little.

    I wouldn't say this pisses me off, just makes me roll my eyes. Fake people. Fake meaning trolls, backstabbers, and/or people who have full-of-****-itis. It is so f*cking obvious when some people lie. We know and we're laughing at you. Okay, yeah, it might piss me off a little actually, lol.

    " What Kind of things PISS you off on MFP?"

    Answer depends on whether I am hungry or not


    HAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!
  • When I posted that I've lost over 120 pounds, and some jack@$$ PMs me to tell me that he thinks I'm lying. Like really dude? I'm gona go on a weight loss message board and lie?? I mean, I guess there are some losers out there who would do that (probably like this guy) but I'm not one of them. I think this "guy" <moderator edited> needs to take the time he took to accuse me of lying, and get himself a life. :huh:

    Thank you.

    Skinny people that make assumptions about big people. They were never big, but they act like they know everything about what a big person goes through. Plus certain words can put me over the edge.

    I go with the mis-spelling of the words "loose" and "loosing" for "lose" and "losing." I am "losing" weight, not loosing it. I want to lose more weight, not loose it. In the name of all that is holy, please spell this four-letter/six-letter word correctly.

    I feel your pain, only I wouldn't say it pisses me off as much as it disappoints me. I guess it's like any other "friendship" or relationship, sometimes it's lop-sided. I didn't delete the no-shows on my friends list, but I've stopped acknowledging them. It does take time to look at the diary and make honest, encouraging responses, and if they can't take the time to look at mine, then I don't have time to look at theirs.

    Just because this is an american site does not mean australian's are not allowed on it :flowerforyou:

    I'm smart cause I could read that

    did you do it with the standing on your head technique, or the old flip the monitor upside down trick?
    I used the "Just read it backwards cause it ain't hard" trick.

    Next time do what I did..mirror technique....in front of monitor hold mirror upside down.

    Both words have same meaning....Losing weight = Loosening clothes.

    Boys and girls... If you're getting legit pissed off at a message board, you have to re-examine your lives. I'm sorry. This topic was just put on here to start an argument and get everyone worked up.

    Ha! I don't see anyone worked up...but you!

    :smile:

    Pisses me off when I'm not friends with someone who makes awesome comments on the forums. *eye on you, JaySpice*

    Nothing! Why be pissed of? Why would anyone choose to focus on negative things? Only to attract more of the same energy I suppose.

    Too many people have too many negative things to say.

    This is supposed to be a place where people come for help, motivation and support and too many people are bullies.

    When people type a really long post about nothing and you read trough it and don't realize that you just read a post about nothing and you are now confused because you were hoping to get something out of reading the really long post even though halfway through it you had a sinking suspicion that it was not going to be about anything but you continue with the hope that part of it if not all of it will make sense once you read the entire thing but then you are left disappointed with yourself for reading all of it and you are even more confused because people responded to it so you assume that it did mean something even though you could not figure it out so you read it again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again with out being able to figure it out any of the times that you read it.

    I also hate run on sentences, and the color blue.

    The fact that I post a question and get very few responses but others will have 200 plus responses becuase they are mindlessly arguing and beating a dead horse in the midst of it all

    I couldn't agree with you more!

    What an ironic turn of a phrase 8)

    people who have been active members for 17 days, lost .8 lbs and are suddenly "educated nutrition professionals" and "almost a kinesiologist"

    shut the phuck up and eat your apple.

    People that assume that someone who has been on here 17 days has only started on the journey since signing up to MFP and that life before MFP was spent in a fog of ignorant bliss sitting on the couch eating chips and pizza!

    Unless I see RD ( registered dietician) at the end of someone's name I take their nutrition advice with a gain of salt.

    Sorry - try that again - what an ironic turn of a phrase...

    People who dont know how to use Find Members and assume that a person's acct was deactivated because they don't realize they have to put in the WHOLE name of said member.

    What really PISSES ME OFF is girls who are about 18-25, that have clearly NEVER been overweight, and have their profile pics set as them in their underwear showing off their toned stomachs, when everyone else on here is clearly struggling to lose weight on a daily basis, and trying their hardest to exercise around running a family home and working 9-5......it's like they're rubbing it in everyone's faces!!

    Well, piss off........you dont need a calorie counting/weight loss site!! :mad:
