    Lol, the religious forums can get pretty good too. Especially when people were believing in the apocalypse a few years ago. Harold Camping's prediction failed and then he repredicted again later for that year and failed again. All the while, taking money from his followers.

    There's a group on here that think the veteran posters are "so mean". I always want to ask them who gives the best advice. >:)

    Right? I think sometimes people don't like straightforward direct advice. Lots of time being "mean" is really just someone getting to the point and not tap dancing around the issue.

    Parenting forums also. It's a bloodbath.

    Definitely the Worst. Ever.

    I was on a scrapbook message board that was all sorts of crazy. Between arguing politics, engaging in competitive parenting, and picking apart each other's religions they still had the energy to critique scrapbooking and photography techniques. If they were really on a roll, you could get all in one thread.

    I recall a crock pot thread that was an pile on of epic proportions.

    Well, I'm new here, but I've actually been impressed with how nice people are here. I generally avoid internet forums, but this one is actually encouraging me to check in sometimes... which also encourages me to get online and log food. So that's all good!

    Even Yahoo answers is worse than here. This girl asked if she was ugly. At least we validate each other here.

    Growing up, my dad used to always tell me... Don't ask questions that you don't want to hear the answer to.

    Honestly, that's some of the best advice I've received :joy:

    I'm mean, but not in a vindictive way, more a "call you on your crap" way.

    Hey there, Welcome!

    I never thought people on here were mean. Some people are really sensitive and/or stubborn & refuse to believe there's a chance something a friend/coworker etc. is nonsense.

    And starting posts with the disclaimer "don't say anything negative" or "if you disagree don't comment".

    That's asking for it!

    You're kidding me? Try a parent's forum, they're vicious animals!

    Vicious is political or religious forums. They have to be the worst.

    Oh goodness I imagine so. People are truly passionate about thatshit. I don't like discussing either subject.

    p.s. I have mean thoughts sometimes but I mostly keep them to myself. Unless someone comes for me, then it's on!
