I hate you all
Notice that the person who made this post JennaM222 is a smoking hottie. This lends further evidence to the theory that the mean people are the attractive ones. I haven't done the legwork to demonstrate a disproportionate number of attractive people be vitriolic as opposed to unattractive people being that way but there could be something there.

Sadly this site is just a reflection of where society is. People feel it is their right to say whatever they think, but don't consider the feelings of others. From the pages I have reviewed here I really feel like there are some people here with NO intention of fitness, but just to be mean. Some of them are so inappropriate I wouldn't be surprised if they have been removed from other sites. It's too bad that this seems to be the way society is in general.0

HEre's my two cents,
I've been around about three months, I post a lot, but not as much as some people who you see in every thread. When I first started here, I thought they were mean people. After reading a few threads I remember to get my head out of my a ss and not take sh it on the internet so seriously. Now it's just funny.
Like with life, take everything with a grain of salt. Are people being mean purposefully? Rarely. Are you projecting your own feelings onto how you *think* someone intended somethign? Most definitely.
I've said stupid things and got called out on it. I felt bad but then I was happy that they corrected me. Now I tend to just go in every thread one of those core people goes in. I'm too scared to friend them still cause we never interact, but I like reading what they have to say.0 -

It is really impressive that this movie is still relevant to this very day.0 -
A lot of us are here because real life is too flippin serious, and interacting with people who appreciate snark and sarcasm with good humor is fun for us.
Also we're jerks0 -
Personally, I think that the people that have got lots of posts on MFP are the ones that tend to `jump` on the new people that have added a thread, which is very sad, seeing as they were `new ` here at some point.
Threads get repeated a lot and it can get a little tiresome, but no matter how `boring` or ` repetitive` they get if you feel as a member of MFP then are we not here for similar reasons and can not a `newbie` feel that they can look for some support.
Jokes, images and sarcastic comments are par for the course but deliberately putting people down for the spelling etc. Is that really needed?
It really comes across each and everyday that it is members that spend a lot of time posting that are the ones that make remarks that are really uncalled for?
If someone calls someone a name or makes fun of their spelling, etc - there is the report button.
Do the new people on here really need to press the `report ` button for someone calling them a name or incorrect spelling?
I would think no?
Maybe it would be a bit nicer for other members to hang loose with the comments/corrections and offer a little more constructive advice??0 -
....Man. You could almost hear this post flying down hill....0

Wrong. When people ask for advice they should be given the truth rather than what they want to hear. The fact that this is considered "mean" is the problem with society. People would rather hear lies than the truth because the truth is difficult. That's part of the reason everyone's fat. No one will tell them because it's mean.
Also wrong. When someone spouts some bullsh!t it should be called as such. In real life and on the internet. Letting people slide on bullsh!t is another thing that has gotten to the point where we are in society. You can't hurt anyone's feelings and if someone wants to say that eating granite is a great way to lose wait then that is their opinion and it should be accepted as just fine. No, it's bullsh!t and should be identified as bullsh!t.0 -

I constructively think that a fitness site design to help you get in shape in part by offering you a place to load progress pictures is no place for your goofy dog pictures0 -
Seriously? You proposed everyone report people to the mods just because we can't all sit in a thread and sing "Kumbaya"?If someone calls someone a name or makes fun of their spelling, etc - there is the report button.
I bet you're also one of the ones that reports everyone's thong pics to the mods on #ThongThursday....0 -

Ain`t that the truth!!! couldn`t have phrased it better!!!0 -
I'm not sure MFP would be MFP if someone didn't make this post everyday.0

The thing that bugs me is that everyone thinks that everyone else should be curious or give a rats *kitten* about what they think. I don't run around here shaming people very often, but some people just have no gd filter. You have just as much negativity on here as you do positivity, most people's problem is that when they're having a crap day they focus on the bs thread filled with negativity instead of the bs threads filled with rainbows and unicorns. I mean seriously, I bet that person who gave you an 8 and said you were totally smashable was also lying to you, but quite frankly you'll never know because it is the interwebz and chances are you weren't actually flattered anyway.
Now, if everyone will just get back to being ****ing snarky I can resume my day.0 -

Forget it, the picture's not working:
"It's now very common to hear people say, 'I'm rather offended by that.' As if that gives them certain rights; it's actually nothing more...it's simply a whine. It's no more than a whine. 'I find that offensive'; It has no meaning, it has no purpose, it has no reason to be respected as a phrase. 'I am offended by that'; well so ****ing what?" - Stephen Fry0 -
