So excellent. Thank you.

Nice callback. Well done, sir.

There will always be an easy way to justify violence in the face of bullying. It's in our nature, why we root for the underdog, why we all felt like cheering when Marty McFly punches Biff by the car. We see a hero as badass when he stomps the bad guy. Reading through the stories of people getting bullied is sad. I feel…

Totally showed them! Here you go: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V_3ZbgKck3I

I'd say it's more about not using the phrase "just sayin'."

That was no accident, and you know it.

This. Thanks for this.

Yep. I see that you did come back and provide that info. But the fact that people are willing to jump in and offer advice so quickly, on so little information, is indicative of the problem. "Eat back your exercise calories" seems to be more a movement or ideology than simply how the math of MFP was designed. And people…

I don't see how people ever took her seriously.

Worse than what? My attention to word choice is worse than my breath.

Last quote is OP. While others bicker about who gets to say what to whom, I wanted to call out your response here. To me, that is awesome - at least in the context of forum behavior. Thanks, OP, for the great attitude. Forum needs more of that.

Hangnails? I hate those!

Despite the jokes and sexually-related comments posted in response to this, I initially read that differently. Not entirely true - I laughed at first. I wondered if the comment was meant only in jest, or if it was truly good advice worded well. I think proclaiming one's love for anything is simply that: proclaiming one's…

Saw this yesterday. It's embarrassing. I plan on having my girls watch this, and explain to them why I get so concerned when they act entitled. Then we might go get donuts.

Quoted for reasonableness.

The reality is that at some point, you have to rely on yourself and be grateful for the support you get. Relying on outside support is tricky and can be dangerous. It's tricky because external motivators are inconsistent and may not always be there. It's dangerous because when those external motivators are inconsistent or…

I have a hard time believing the idea that someone has "gotten rid of the Facebook drama" if they are talking about "getting rid of the Facebook drama" on another social network like MFP.

Poor AJ isn't.

I've thought about this some, because I know a few vegans. I honestly believe what comes off as moral superiority to some may actually be passionate belief in veganism. Think about it: Imagine you feel passionate about the mistreatment of animals, and also feel strongly that the meat industry mistreats animals. And you…

My definition of "universal" - applied here - would mean that in researching a true acronym, I would find very similar definitions across various sources. That wasn't my experience. Hence, my contention at the use of "universal."

What source are you getting your definition from? I ask more out of curiosity than to challenge. When I started looking up acronym, the sources I found had conflicting info. Some agreed with what you originally stated. Others did not. And some defined a true acronym as one where the letters are pronounced - not necessarily…

I've seen that article referred to in this forum before. It's a good piece, but incorrectly titled (IMO). Everyone is entitled to their opinion. The problem arises when that entitlement extends to spreading bad information, polluting a community of ideas/voices with misinformation, or the inability to rationally defend an…

Please don't perpetuate the myth about metabolism jump-starting. If you are posting 11+ posts a day, you certainly have the time to do better research. RE: breakfast, I will say this: waffles > pancakes.

I don't agree with this - the trivia part. I don't think that's a universal definition of an acronym. YMMV.

I cannot prove this, but I'm willing to bet that the main reason "so many people seem to lose more on whole food diets, raw, whatever" is because those people are paying attention to what they are eating. Which likely means more accurate logging. Further, I suspect more accurate logging would likely account for a greater…

I'm just glad this idea is all in fun, and MFP folks don't actually hook up in real life. Because that might get weird.

What this thread is missing is Juggalos. http://okcupidjuggalos.tumblr.com/

This doesn't sound like a made up story at all.

Too many people sleeping with each other? Oh, you mean a technical problem with MFP? Too many people posting about people sleeping with each other?
