To be completely p***ed off for being flamed in AIBU for having an opinion ????

[ThroughlyFedUp]

Well, am I ???

[ThoroughlyFedUp]

Whoops, just realised my nickname was spelt incorrectly !!!

Have namechanged for this thread as if you hadn't guessed

[GhostWriter]

Yes YABU. AIBU is just Flamers Anonymous differently titled.

[wheredidiputmyfone]

Is it from the 'bap' thread per chance? I could be wrong

[TheFallenMadonna]

I just don't get this "it's my opinion and I insist on stating it, but if you have an opinion about my opinion you can just keep it to yourself" nonsense.

[seeker]

If you were the person who compared breast feeding women to Frisian cows and to your breasts as your partner's "toys", then you are being VERY unreasonable!

[southeastastra]

yabu for bu that posting on aibu can cause some people to feel that they are in fact, bu

[BoysAreLikeDogs]

what is this bap thread of which you speak?

[ThoroughlyFedUp]

wheredidiputmyfone - Nope, not the "bap" thread (interested to see this though !!

seeker - No, that wasn't me either !

southeastastra - Whoa! you have just lost me with your post

[ThoroughlyFedUp]

Thats what I wanna know BALD !!

[wheredidiputmyfone]

I posted it earlier

[BoysAreLikeDogs]

However YABU for starting a thread about a thread. tsk tsk.

[ThoroughlyFedUp]

TheFallenMadonna - That's exactly it. The particular thread in question was full of people who all agreed with each other, then I come along with a slightly different opinion (not even offensive, just my side of the story so to speak), and all hell broke loose

Pardon me for breathing

You've gotta love the AIBU board. You could think of the most water tight thread and it would still get picked apart.

[ThoroughlyFedUp]

Thanks WDIPMF, gonna have a look through that in a sec

Sorry BALD

[preggersplayspop]

Oooh a guessing game, you have an aunt who bf for 4 years? Do I win?

[wheredidiputmyfone]

Awww you've got to tell us which one now, else we can't sit in judgement of you

[itchyandscratchy]

that's what you get for venturing into AIBU territory... tbh i only go there if I'm feeling hard and belligerant

[ThoroughlyFedUp]

Well, that didn't last long....preggers wins !!

[Morloth]

Tell you what does make me roll my eyes.

All the threads lately whining about AIBU. Is there some sort of rule I missed where you have to post/read a board you are not enjoying?

[SmokingKnickers0nMahead]

YABU for starting a thread about a thread but you shouldn't get flamed for having an opinion and stating it. Tell 'em to feck off.

[ThoroughlyFedUp]

I'm not whining Morloth, just fed up with not being able to voice an opinion without getting absolutely hammered for it.

People seem to think that AIBU gives them the right to have a go at other people, when in fact, it is about giving opinions, not slating each others opinions.

[Tortington]

yabvu - no one is allowed an opinion in aibu

[ThoroughlyFedUp]

Why AIBU for starting a thread about a thread ?? Is that a rule of MN ? Sorry, haven't been a member for long.

[bibbitybobbityCAT]

Yanbu. Disgraceful wilful misinterpretation of what you actually said + determined offence-taking + lots of silly hysterical ranty shouting going on over there. Yanbu at all.

[ThoroughlyFedUp]

Well I think you're wrong custardo, only ONE person is allowed to have an opinion in AIBU......me !!
