Take the pledge!
Has anyone else noticed there are some really negative comments here at times? I mean I know we are all here for discussion but why get nasty? Could we start a pledge? Who's with me? I pledge that if I haven't anything nice to say, I'll say nothing at all!

Re: Take the pledge!
Actually, people enjoy common sense, which can be lacking here from time to time.
You cannot tell other people how to respond on an internet forum.
No, I just don't enjoy stupidity or people telling me what to post.
FWIW, BMBs are very P&Rs compared to the rest of TB boards.
I was hoping this would be a pledge to stop peeing on sticks....
Meh. I couldn't have agreed to that either.
My cat can read EKGs, can your human do that?

Responding with truth, intelligence, and/or common sense rather than just telling people what they want to hear =/= being mean or nasty.
Disagreeing with someone & expressing your opinion also =/= being mean or nasty.
So no, I won't make a pledge to censor myself.
I guess I haven't been around much. Because I haven't seen any bullying!
So because not everyone agrees with one another we are bullying?
Ugh...it's going to be a long 8 months here...
I also thought it was to pledge this. Or to not text and drive. Both of which I have already promised DH. OR rather I pledged to him.
There are few gifs that I actually enjoy. This is now one of them. So perfect.
That is not bullying, that is pointing out the hardship they want to burden their child with.
Nope. It's called disagreeing!
If you don't like it don't post your baby name ideas because you will get mixed responses, period.
True story. Check out the book Freakonomics for more on this.
LMAO
"Mean girls"? Too funny.

Notice how you are the only one in this thread besides OP that is "for" it?
Many of the ones "going against the pledge" are ladies who have been around these boards for a while and know how it is on TB. People debate and disagree on here. I don't even see what the point would be if we didn't. And I agree with PPs that this board is actually really tame compared to others!
I don't know if you remember, but I got pretty mad at you on TTGP in your BFP post.
Idk but I'm back to lurking now. Probably going to delete my account. I don't put up with disrespect in my classroom. Why should I tolerate it here?
Nothing to do with your comment BUT I LOVE YOUR MUG!!! haha that is a joke we have at my work place!
Nah, I think I'll pass on the pledge. Maybe it's my hormones, but after seeing the same post 80 different times every day (ok, I exaggerate), it gets hard NOT to say something.
Maybe I'm a "mean" girl, but I'd rather someone call me out then let me go on with my head stuck in the clouds or someone tell me I'm being stupid when I am. Or even to tell me to get a grip on reality when my hormones are going all out of whack and I'm acting like a crazy, insane woman.
IRL, I'm actually one of those super sweet people that will let you walk all over me until I've had enough. And then I get super b**chy. So maybe that's why I'm more blunt on here .... because by the end of the day, I've had e-freakin'-nough!

Nothing "bad" was said in your post.
Ha! Who disrespected you? Your chiro thread didn't make any sense at all and I STILL tried to offer words of wisdom to you. That really pisses me off because I figured you were just excited and rambling and I gave you the benefit of the doubt.
I thought I recognized your name. But I have seen a lot of people get flamed. We are complete strangers for the most part. If I get flamed so be it. I am just going to brush my shoulders off and keep it moving. What else are you going to do?
When you've been married this long, you need a ticker to remind you.
