offensive posts

I know it, I was just making the point that I don't really participate in this board much, although I do lurk. I don't get pissy too often and when i do it's usually short lived. It's all good. Well, I guess I am officially a participater on this board. It just seemed like this nice sweet little family and I was peering through the living room window.

i love my TWINS AND MY GYM NATZI NAZI OR HOW EVER I CHOOSE TO SPELL IT!!!!!!!!!! I am a sailor at heart......i cuss so much my ex husband would blush. I do not care. life is good tammy with the fake twins and a gym natzi (nazi) in my hip pocket!!!!!!!!

 

 

Me again.  I, too, have the perpensity to cuss and write about what some would consider to be private or vulgar.  While I understand that many have this self-righteous attitude that they are not going to hear or see the vulgarities of the world sure missed the part where Jesus hung out with the undesirable from prostitutes to naked men running through the streets and never judged them for their ways.  On another note, there are many on this board and the over fifties board that are church goers and they just don't read the stuff that offends them, just like I don't read the religious propaganda that occasionally comes on the boards or through the email. 

Did any of you actually read and comprehend my post?  Apparently not.  I wasn't offended by the use of vulgar language....I married an Army Infantryman for pete's sake!  I was offended by being referred to as a ***** by someone who doesn't even know me!  Did I tell her she was a bad person?  NO  Did I pass judgement on her?  NO  I said I was offended by her post, THAT'S IT!   Everybody else has an opinion and states it, why can't I?   You may not have enough respect for yourself to be offended by being called a ***** but I do and I don't believe that is being self-righteous...that is called being confident in who you are.  I have apologized to Wendy for making the post in the first place and not emailing her privately about it...I admitted I was wrong for doing that.  But now my faith is being questioned by not one but at least two of you because I dared make a post that said I was offended?  Talk about missing the part where Jesus never passed judgement!  But you know what....its all good because I know who I am and what I am and I wouldn't trade my life for anything and the rest of you can just get over it!  My Saviour knows what's in my heart and that's all that matters to me....sticks and stones....

i truly understand how you feel and what you we getting at. I have been called a bit*h so many times that it no longer bothers me. And I respect myself,  I hear it everyday. But I truly understand what you are saying and I also understand how some have come across including myself about how if you dont like it dont read it. some people just dont get it.....yes you are entitled to your opinion just as I am and susie homemaker and jim the construction man, yes it was blown out of control, and yes I am at fault, but I did not enjoy the comment made by some one who never has the nerve to post until it is controversial and also made comments about eating disorders and disfunctional families breast implants and running errands. some people happen to be friends and enjoy knowing if rhonda went fishing or if susan cut some famous persons hair .....this is support and sometimes support comes in many forms. to the poster I am referring to.........do you know how many people pm me to thank me for posting how I am 7 yrs post op re-gained weight but took the initiave to get back to basics and start losing? Or how many pm about the details of my breast lift and implants and how far out I was before considering plastic surgery????? How about how during the last few years I have struggled with many many things but have managed top keep myself afloat and post or update and to also not lose too much control, people want to know more than how much oatmeal I can eat. They want to know what life is like 7 yrs later.......or what will their loose skin might feel like. I guess I am sensitive and take things to heart when I am not being a bit*h, I am afterall studying to be a fitness and nutrition instructor.....personal trainer.....i am doing this to help others, I have been there.....there are not too many gyms with admitted gastric bypass patients working out...and there are not too many gym with certified gastric bypass patients as instructors. anyhow I went off the initial topic but I am quite angered by comments. I represent more than me, I will defend more than just me. I have already started training someone.......I take comments about weight very serious and the eating disorder comment flew all over me!!!!!!!!!!!!

Denise you proved yourself and did the right thing by apologizing and to also have done it through pm. I am just defending so many who wont speak up...maybe no one caught what the poster said that has me mad...... oh well....I am going to go and do my 2-3 hours of working out............ peace love and happiness Tammy

Thank you Tammy.  I did read the response you're referring to and you're right...she did insult practically everybody here...my family could be the poster family for dysfunctional.  As for the rest of it, I'm done with it.  I got offended by something I read, impulsively responded to it without thinking it through and opened a huge can of worms that didn't need to be opened on here....I still don't think my christianity should have been questioned over it though.  Fact is, we don't really know each other that well (meaning everybody on the board) and the only thing we have to base our opinions on are the words we read on here and let's face it....those words don't always tell the whole story.  So I'm letting it go...over and done with.

Hey Denise, Its all good, you did not bug me at all.  I am pretty lightheated and not much bothers me, I am truly a southern girl and just want to enjoy life and have some fun!  We all have our own beliefs and things that just truly rub us the wrong way but in the end we are all adults and just need to get along!  Have a great day and happy posting! AmyBeth
