    Not sure why you would waste your energy typing this post. Everything you typed can be searched also. We've heard all these negative comments before. Sorry I wasted my time reading it. I only did because your topic said "Please read me"! Didn't learn anything new here, and only got some negativity vibes, which I'm not here for.

    Personally, I think the better question would be how are you (or we as a community) supporting others? It seems that factor is getting lost in venting and *****ing about what annoys us regarding other's behavior. The "all about me and my preferences" attitude gets really old, really quick.
  • :smile: You did make a few good points
  • Yep, agreed .. there definately is a search function on this forum, as in any ... You can look up any word, or subject and find information or your answers .. Come to think of it .. I wonder why anyone would even bother to come here for those answers ... when there is google. Why even waste your time coming to a discussion board? .. Oh wait a minute .. THIS is a DISCUSSION board .. where people discuss topics. search out information, ask questions or maybe even just simply have conversations and friendly chit chat about all kinds of things .. and maybe enter into some friendly banter now and then .. But, apparently .. THAT is not what you're supposed to do here.

    Hmm .. Now I am confused. Someone remind me .. Why did I join this forum again? .. Ooops .. Nevermind .. I remember now .. I am supposed to use the search function to find the answer to my question. My Bad!

    Google the word "hypocrite" because anyone commenting on here about me *****ing, is doing the exact same thing.
    We didn't start the fire...
    But we threw more wood on it.

    I don't understand when people start a topic and then are baffled/offended/irritated/[fill in the blank] when someone disagrees. Just because someone disagrees doesn't mean they shouldn't post a comment. How boring a world would it be if everyone who ever disagreed stayed silent? I like it it when people post comments...the more varied, the better.

    So simple question....not to offend just curious....why after reading it or reading part of it and not liking it did you decide you had to post .....if its not what you like or are here for?

    I didn't know there was internetz police on here? or even the spelling police?

    If you look up the meaning of a forum, its for people to speak to each other and learn... being a former person that's asked a couple of those questions... and now I answer them. Plain in simple, if you are tired of seeing them... then ignore them?

    You would of found this same exact post by someone else if you used the search feature!

    And, if you had googled it, you would HAVE known that "of" is a preposition incorrectly used in your statement where the helping verb "have" needed to be. You are correct, however, in that there have also been multiple posts on just this topic.

    You just made me so happy.

    i think i love you...
  • LOL, I love the lose vs. loose, for some reason it just makes me wanna scream when I see people talk about "loosing weight" :)

    I am the same!!!
    I think words are interesting.. with my weight I don't want to just lose it.. as in not keep track of where it is.. I truly want to 'cut it loose' , as in gone forever, let go completely, released. perhaps subconsciously it is better to LOOSE weigh than to just LOSE it? IMHO
  • When will I get my period? I haven't had one. Does this mean I'm pregnant? If I'm pregnant should I eat more calories or less?

    I've been on here awhile and, while you are right, there are many of the same questions and comments posted over and over, this rant about it is not exactly original either.

    I say, give a new person a break. They'll discover how to search out a topic soon enough. Until then, just skip over the titles of "Loose or Lose". "Tom" . Should I eat back my exercise Calories". etc.

    Or maybe you could message them about the search engine, rather than ridiculing them in the message board.

    What exactly is the point of this post? It will get lost like all other posts. And then people will continue to annoy you by doing the exact things you noted in your comment. Yes, people should search what they're looking for first. But really..who cares?? Someone will always be there to answer their question much faster then it will take to search and read comment after comment for the correct answer. Perhaps you were trying to be helpful but you came off *****y instead. Which is unfortunate since this post seems to be directed for newer members of MFP and one of their first encounters could be this post where you seem rather rude. But let's hope not. Regardless of how you feel this will continue to happen again and again. Instead of letting it bother you, why not skip over the post and move on. This is a place of support not an English lecture and a how to guide based on how you would like things. The amount of posts I have read lately from people being nasty in surreal. People need to get off their high horse and let others enjoy the site for the purpose of what it is. A supportive weight loss community. This is supposed to be a happy place!!

    I don't understand why get pissed because someone posted something that annoys you? So just skip it. To that person, it might mean something and I suppose if they realized they could search it they would.

    A support group is supposed to be for support, is it not?
