This is how GD is making me feel.

GAHHHHH!!! Is it too hard to expect 5th grade reading comprehension from adults? Is that unreasonable?

[seemunkee]

1. Obviously it is

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

2. It's amazing.

Offer three different ways of explaining something to someone with sources (not even something up for debate, an actual DEFINITION) only to be told, "No you're wrong. You don't know what you're talking about. It means, 'blah, blah, blah' even if I am the only one that says so."

8. My advice to you

Start drinking heavily. It makes GD so much more tolerable

[MiniMandaRuth]

3. And this how I want to make you feel:

4. It's temporary. Check back tomorrow.

:scared:

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

5. Eh, it's time for a beer.

6. But it's the heat of the moment!

They can't be bothered to THINK; reaction is what matters.

Picky, picky, picky.

Next thing we know you'll expect third grade grammar and spelling skills, you elitist you.

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

7. The grammar and spelling is actually quite good.

I would accept a lower level of grammar and spelling, in exchange for reading comprehension.

[blondeatlast]

12. When I taught 8th grade English, that's exactly how I looked at things.

I would give GD an A- in grammar, a solid B in reading tonight.

9. I've been watching TV -- what threads???

[MoseyWalker]

10. I've been watching my radio.

damn. I think I might have a problem........

:)

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

11. Check your PM. nt

[hyphenate]

13. What?

I'm in GD a lot. Who's giving you a problem?

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

14. The NYC protest thread.

Apparently, my universally (except for one) held definitions of civil disobedience and anarchism are wrong. Apparently, civil disobedience is standing inside free-speech zones and actual civil disobedience is anarchism.

[bridgit]

15. hear you that one...

:thumbsup: this one too :beer:

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

16. Yeah, it's time for another one of those.

It is kind of amusing though...I've been informed I was conservative due to boats, my Jeep, and the right of old ladies in wheelchairs to shoot muggers that are choking them. Now I'm learning I'm actually too far left because I believe in civil disobedience, which is apparently anarchy.

:wtf:

[ElboRuum]

17. Clearly, somebody set up us the bomb. n/t

[Jamastiene]

18. I think some of them just do it to keep their reputation as

extremely difficult intact.

I finally start ridiculing them after a try or two at reasoning with them doesn't work. They ARE impossible sometimes. Don't let it get you down. No good woman deserves to let something as miniscule as a GD flamewar get her down. Chin up and hang with us Loungers for a while. Relax by the pool. Have a mai tai. Better yet, take a mai tai and get into one of those floating lounge chairs and float around and hang out on clouds. It'll make you feel better.

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

19. The weather is shit outside, so no pool for me.

I'm debating my next drink. I think I might just go with some Patron on the rocks.
