You people are sooooo mean!

THE OP CREATED THIS POST WITH ME IN MIND TEASING MY LAST THREAD THAT WAS TAKEN DOWN. PEOPLE JOINING INTO THINGS WITHOUT KNOWING HOW MORONIC THE STATEMENTS IM ARGUING ARE IS REALLY ANNOYING! THEY ARE PROBABLY THE DUMBEST PEOPLE IN THIS ARGUMENT.

I'm sorry, the glory of all that lies within this shirt can only be seen through the power of love farts. And you don't want to know what you have to do to get that power. Lets just say I'm still removing glass from my *kitten*.

It's always great when a newbie jumps on these boards and demands attention.

Where's that "muppet-attention-*kitten*" gif when I need it?

I certainly didn't try to get this attention. Who would? *Smacks you upside head* Use your common sense!

*you're

Nice detour... Who would want all this negative attention? Why can't I just post without having it? It appears you guys are calling me an attention wh0re when all you guys are doing is giving it to me. Not only is it counter productive but a huge contradiction. How on earth can you call me an attention *kitten* when you are the ones showing all the attention?! This logic boggles my mind.

Guess what? Your "medical proof with no proof" post about something completely asinine is NOT the first to be posted! Not everything is about you. You might want to take a vacation from the interwebz today.

It seems you guys can't help but to make it about me. Has this thread not turned into the same attackers from earlier making the same lame points and jokes? Maybe you should scroll the comments and read again to get a better view before you go accusing people of liking the horribly excused behavior you all seem to exhibit.

This thread isn't about YOU -- it's about the MFP noob cliché.


You posted BS that has been posted and debunked a million times before. You reacted in a way that most do (poorly, with name calling and meanie response threads).

I didn't see a single debunk. I can tell you what i saw, but I think you know. Quit making excuses for bad behavior. Like I deserved it or something. WOW!

Okay..debunk. Lets see. Here is the citation you provided for why eating the amount of protein most people eat is "medically proven" to be bad for you.

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21102327

Keep in mind this is the citation that you yourself provided to back up your claim.

I invite you to now actually read your own citation.

http://www.news.cornell.edu/stories/1996/11/eating-less-meat-may-help-reduce-osteoporosis-risk

That is from 1996.

You know what is more recent? http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21102327

You should be familiar with that. But here's the summary, one more time: Recent epidemiological, isotopic and meta-analysis studies suggest that dietary protein works synergistically with calcium to improve calcium retention and bone metabolism. The recommendation to intentionally restrict dietary protein to improve bone health is unwarranted, and potentially even dangerous to those individuals who consume inadequate protein.

I bolded the part that specifically references the '96 study.

By all means then, attack me for not keeping up with this massive amount of information out there where people can easily get confused.

Again, Making me look dumb does not make you look smart. Just makes you look like an as$hole

Not attacking you for being confused, attacking you for propagating and disseminating mininformation in a public forum before bothering to get your facts straight by investigating the publically available research. If you don't know enough about a subject, don't talk about it publically or if you do expect people to chime in with any critisisms.

And i'm supposed to trust that you know you're *kitten*?

I don't think you trust me at all know. I don't think mentioning my Ph.D. in molecular biology or my focus on protein biochemistry would actually convince you either, nor should it. Ones correctness does not stem from ones authority or ones study but on what citations and research one can provide to back up ones claims.

And hows your bedside manner doc? I don't care what you have to tell me if you're going to tell me in a way that is insulting to my well being. I have the right to protect myself from attacks even if that means remaining ignorant. Because as a DOCTOR should know that one teaches others how to treat them. I'm new to this whole diet and exercise stuff, but psychology I am not. And I can tell you with 100% certainty that I endured cyber abuse today. Which didn't stop short of all the classic abuse signs and symptoms. From convincing the victim that they are deserving of the abuse/ or that I asked for it to the very obvious belittling. But then again, I don't expect much to be educated on abuse here or this probably would not of happened.

Sitting back and reading your responses, most of them start with attacks on the person you are responding to. While it is possible for people to take a high road when replyin to you, the continual abuse you spew through your keyboard makes that less likely.

The only thing you can change in the world is yourself and how you react to situations.

Some of you people can even read this?

I'm so sorry you guys have so little knowledge of abuse. I hope this will not cause problems in your future since it is such a huge problem. Just hope a daughter doesn't have to die before someone cares to learn. f*n* sad. Sickening even.

#1, I didn't make myself a target. I posted what I thought was a helpful post which apparently you all deemed was making me target worthy. #2 Each and every post I have made since I have been teased. If you are telling me I deserved that, then you have a mighty sadistic way of thinking. #3, I have been arguing the way I was treated which was bad enough for an admin to remove. Not because of my topic, but because of how I was treated. I have several PM's from other MFP posters stating that you guys can be cruel. Why would I get 20+ of those if there was NO CRUELTY? No, you're way should not be how it works. And I'm not a victim, however a lot here are bullies. I'm too strong for all of your words to mean too much to me. As far as I'm concerned, you guys are the reason why the internet has become so dehumanized with blanketed quotes to make yourselves feel better about it.

VIle

You posted two "you're all mean" threads following your first thread, basically taunting people, whom you referred to as "morons" to respond. Did you expect kittens and rainbows?

Then you came to a thread that was going to be no more than a bunch of silly gifs (actually kittens and rainbows) and brought everything back up and continued posting and instead of just leaving, which would save you a lot of stress, you keep coming back.

And then you claim you're being abused.

I have been abused. You are not being abused. You are, however, clearly a masochist. You obviously enjoy the negative attention or you wouldn't keep posting. No one is following you around doing this. You are going right for the places where you will receive negative attention and practically begging for it.

When I finally split from my abuser, I did not then seek him out every chance I got.

New on this thread and it looks like everyone is doing well on their weight loss and lifestyle changes. Do you want to share any secrets?

Have you been abused? You seem to have very little information about abuse. I have been abused, worked as an advocate against abuse, have my own site, and have helped many people. SO, maybe you need to research a little before you make such high factual claims. For you to even mention that I am begging for it shows how little knowledge you have. That is classic "victim blaming". One of the many dynamics of abuse. Abuse isn't just hitting or name calling.

Okay I am going to try to explain this as simply as I can.

You are a 32 year old woman. You are not a child, you are not 12. There is no reason to coddle you, to hold your hand, to tell you you are right when you are wrong. Posting incorrect information and then falling back on claims of ignorance is not a valid excuse for an adult. If you are ignorant about a topic it is your responsibility to either not make declarations of knowledge you do not possess or to spend the time to look into it. Again, you are not a child. Telling you straight up you are wrong and why your responses have been offensive is not "abuse". Telling you some of what you said is down right moronic, also...not "abuse". You have free choice here, no one is holding you down, no one is bringing you here. This is a public forum where everyone is an adult. Time to grow up.
