AAAAHHHHHHHHHH! Jump on if you have ever been TOTALLY MISUNDERSTOOD on DU!
I swear to freaking christ, if one more asshole shuts his brain off before he reads a COMPLETE post, I am going to throw this computer out the window.
:argh: :nuke: :argh:

Come on, people: we're supposed to be rather more open-minded than our fellow citizens on the other side of the aisle, aren't we?

AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

1. Apparently not...
I have become more assured that humanity is a true wasteland every day.

2. Shut up! You're wrong! Turn off her mic!
:D

You know, it's people like you, or rather that think the way you do, that are the reason our children can't read and the terrorists are all getting three welfare checks apiece!

Allow me to AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!! with you. :)

3. I can't believe you would say something like that!
Eh, just kiddin' Bertha.

I think we've all been misunderestimated here from time to time.

5. Oh yes, "I feel your Pain"
I posted a snarky response to something where i mentioned Congressman Bono, it was a joke, i got a response telling me not to make fun of Bono the singer. So i responded and asked them to actually read the post, not just the words they wanted to see. I got an apology, but i have filed it away in a safe place.

7. I know the feeling
I was misunderstood one time and I just could not get through to the misunderstander what the deal was. It seemed like I posted about fifteen times in an effort to clarify what I said, but they would have none of it. It's pretty frustrating.

8. If you throw the computer out the window, won't the alligators get it?
They are lousy typists.

13. People used to think I was a middle-aged grandmother
When I was populistmom (that boring :boring: name). Got sick of that. Nothing wrong with being middle-eged or a grandmother, I'm just not there yet. :D

14. I find there are
always those who like to read a post in the worst possible light and accuse the poster of all sorts of tangential insensibilities.
They always seem to post and run too, so they don't reply when you try to clarify your position.
Some people really get off on righteous indignation. Oh baaaby!;-)
