To think on one thread a poster is a screaming harpy...

...because her opinion of breastfeeding, MMR, childcare, discipline etc doesn't agree with yours.

And yet on another thread she is the wittiest fountain of knowledge ever?

Its a strange phenomenon.

YANBU at all. It's great that you can take good advice from someone on one topic and ignore the fact that on a different topic they are completely wrong (otherwise known as 'having a different opinion to you').

So utterly, utterly wrong at times it is quite astounding.

For it has been scientifically proven that I am correct in 99.9% of my statements .(including that one.)

Yanbu.
I feel this way from time to time, which is why I tend to tread carefully on the old controversial topics.
Not saying I always manage...

It's because none of them are real.

phD/medical or mn?

DrTrillianAstra · 19/07/2009 19:25

MN degree? How does one get that? PhD, so no questions about your piles please!

It amazes me how quickly some threads turn so nasty! People are allowed to have different opinions without being harangued and treated like dirt for daring to disagree with others.

nickytwotimes · 19/07/2009 19:28

Well done you.

They are her opinions (no idea who you're talking about btw) and she is entitled to them. No need to feel threatened by them. YAmostdefinitelyBU.

I am often a screaming harpie on MMR threads. But rarely witty anywhere except in my own head where I am truly hilarious.

How could you say that sayithowitis.

Oh pag, don't sell yourself short, you're very witty.

pagwatch · 19/07/2009 19:37

Ah coco. Are you real or have I made you up to chat with me and laugh at my jokes...

I always LOVE that i can be thrown by posters having views that I love and views that I hate. When I agree with a poster really strongly on something i get quite miffed if they argue with me on something else .
See. MN - Its ultimately all about me

And you are a bit witty.
