I get cranky when i'm hungry.
Also known as being "hangry"
Where is that from? lol. Now I feel like some steak...mmmmmmm....0 -
Nor, apparently, do you have a knack for spotting satire.At least i do not use "LOLZ" like a 12 year old girl :bigsmile:
Oh, and... LOLZ0 -
There's a quote a friend of mine has in their forum signature elsewhere.
"Text has a disadvantage of not showing Tone, Humor and Sarcasm. Before you react, take a step back."
Wise words.
Could not have said it better myself! I get accused of coming across harsh on some occasions or abrasive, but look at me... not abrasive...well, maybe sometimes....haha. I start typing and erase, type, ahhh just send it. Then you get the ALL CAPS yelling response back at you. "What did I say?" Whoops! When you know the person didn't get your point. I really try to view my words from all angles. I could never be a writer.0 -
Everyone takes everything so seriously on here...really gets on my goat.. People need to chill..0

Seriously? 'Game of Thrones' man. Order HBO NOW. In fact. Build a time machine and go back and watch it so that we can talk about it a few months ago. It's that good.
lol, i don't have HBO or even cable...i'm sure I can download all the GoT episodes though. My one bud LOVES it, maybe i shall give it a watch.0 -

I wasn't sure what the what was happening. People get angry when they are hungry. The day before Thanksgiving everyone is angry and desolate and going crazy trying to plan who sits next to Uncle Skunk and Auntie Alcoholic.
The day after Thanksgiving, it's like unicorns pooped out rainbows and lollipops to the whole of society.
Then I saw Dany eating a heart in the most epic episode of Game of Thrones and thought, "Good Lord, I have arrived!"
Thanks for that. 0 -
What are we, school children??? It's "pubic lice" not crabby pants and they are a REAL PROBLEM that millions of Americans suffer with daily.0

I don't have cable either...I must acquire Netflix...I thought that gif was from The Walking Dead0 -
Nevermind the crabby pants, why are there so many people on MFP who don't watch Game of Thrones? Clearly, this is the bigger issue, and one that hasn't been beaten to death -- yet.0

lack of food = cranky people
Obviously, lack of food in your case....Damn! Great job...0 -
I like to go to another site it's just devoted to perfumes and it's fun and light hearted. Noone tells someone that they are wrong because they like this perfume over another. It's just oh great that works for you and your individual skin chemistry.
Why are the forums on MFP so hostile?
To me, much of it seems to be because there are things that are subjective and things that are objective.
You can and should have opinions on things that are subjective. "That smells nice", "I like the taste of chocolate", etc.
You don't really get to have opinions about things that are objective. These are either correct or incorrect (or unknown or untested - in which case you get to have theories).
I think lots of frustration seems to happen (and not just here) when people try to have opinions about objective things instead of subjective things.
I still think of weight loss as sObjective its a mix of objective and subjective what works for one will not work for another. Too many factors at play.
I think the best way to determine who is "right" and who is "wrong" is in 40-60years from now we will all meet back and see who is the healthiest, who is still alive, who is not in a nursing home, who can change their own pants when they make poopy, who can feed themselves, who is still independent, and who looks like sophia loren or sean connery. And that person will be declared the MFP wiener!0 -

Repost!!!!
I have been here almost 2 years and I pretty much seen it all. This is how I see the life cycle of MFP (this tread is not about you personally….those are generalities. No hate mail please)
Newbie!!! This is sooo exciting, they are ready to do whatever it take to lose the weight once and for all.
-They cut calories as far as they can.
-Plan to lose 10 pounds in 4 weeks
-Go to the gym 2 hours a day and do cardio to burn calories,
-Do not eat their earned calories back (because what is the point then and think that all of us to tell them to eat, please just eat are out of their minds)
-Panic because a have a meal with family at a restaurant and oh my god how will they fit the calories in (hint…..exercising for hours)
-Post a tread about how nasty the old timers are.
-Burn out
Option A
-Quit
Option B
-Learn as much as possible about TDEE, BMR, The science of nutrition, Heavy strength training, learn about body fat%. Up their calories, care less about the scale; get healthy.
-turn around and try to help the newbie
-Get tired of fighting with the newbie and start answering in a way the newbies find rude.
-Get tired of being called rude but are in the best shape of their life, enjoy life, eat a lot and stop the hamster wheel of weight loss

You need a supportive, motivational friend who can give you an HBO GO password.
In fact, I am going to suggest that Game of Thrones might be just what the doctor ordered for the crabby pants people!0 -
Is it bad that I have a crush on him?
Or bad in a good way?0 -

This is true maybe those who have seen it should pay for us who have not seen it to have a netflix subscription so we arent forced into illegal acts of piracy.0 -
Gah, I meant to edit my post.
Getting back to the thread topic: Watch Game of Thrones, then try calling someone here mean. :laugh: Perspective is everything.0 -

people are so crabby on this site because of a simple cause.... they most likely deprive themselves of all the foods they really want to eat and they look at alot of good looking bodies on this site and get discouraged because they are not where they want to be yet.
its just that simple.... very sad but its really not their fault.. they act that way because they are stressed out and when someone is stressed they lash out on others.....
anyways i hope ur having a lovely day there is a such thing as eating the foods you want and still losing weight thats what i do... 0 -
I consider myself a open minded and really nice guy. been on MFP for a couple years never posted much on the forums. last night i started hanging out here figured be nice to meet other people same mind set. then this afternoon Some Troll Bane decides he's going to harass/bully me buy using my profile picture and mating me with some other guy on the site. some might see it funny. Crap to be honest i might even see it funny. If i even knew Bane in the First place. honestly right now has nothing to do with crabby people or thin skinned people. i see this place now as a forum for some people to come in bully others to make themselves feel better for not losing the weight they want to lose or they see it as a great place to attack people that already have some self confidence issues.
There is no Excuse at anytime that its OK to disrespect bully or harass another poster on here at all. just insane people are here thinking its OK. making excuses because people have not eaten food or what ever. I Dont need to hang out on the forums to use the site if this is how people act all the time.0 -

I remember that thread. Didn't he state outright what he planned to do with profile photos in his first post? That's why I didn't post in the thread. Just didn't feel like having my pics messed with. Seemed like a reasonable approach and kept me from having to deal with any funny feelings that would resulted.0 -
I'm stunned that here in the middle of winter during a difficult recession, someone starving themselves might get a little crabby.
It just doesn't add up. :huh:0
