Okay - Give me the Scoop on "EmmJay"
WTF is her problem? She was over on the SAHM board the other day trying to stir up sh*t on what is basically a drama-free board and now I see people calling her out over here.

Re: Okay - Give me the Scoop on "EmmJay"
First of all it's Emjay. (My first and middle name start with M&J)
I guess I should give you the scoop right from the source.
My short-lived visit on the SAHM mom board was out of curiosity. I was checking to see what was going on with some of the other boards, because quite honestly, this board is quite dull and repetitious most days. Multiple posts a day of "How long till I see my doctor?", "Why do I have to wait so long?", "Is cramping normal?", "Has anyone else..." (then you have to click to see that they are asking if anyone else has ever craved ice cream or something else inane), "I'm spotting... will I be okay?", and the always popular "Could I be pregnant??".
So... I popped around a few places, and I see a woman who is unemployed and who has the luxury of being a stay-home-mom, but feels even then, she needs to hire a helper. To me, that seemed a bit much. If taking care of your kids is your only job, can't you do that without hiring a helper? Mind you, you never said babysitter so she could leave and go places. She wanted a "helper" to be at the house so she could "bond with her newborn and give her DD playtime". To me, this seems like a no-brainer. First of all, it's not that hard to find a little time to spend with your daughter while your newborn sleeps for 10 hours a day. To me it seems like she wants someone to do the work for her.
I stated my opinion and did so in a considerate way. I simply asked a question out of curiosity. I didn't even direct it at her in particular, but at the board in general. So a bunch of people got their panties in a wad, and started QQ'ing, it got argumentative, as is often the case with women in a large group, and eventually I just left the situation alone once people started being racist and hateful in that thread. That's too much, even for me.
Typical crap, really. "Oh you can't say that until you have been in our shoes. Tell us when y have a toddler and try to work from home." I pointed out that I have done just that, with a 5-year-old, a newborn, and a child that didn't turn three until a few months after the baby was born, and I still managed to work from home, only taking two weeks off of work.
Whine, whine, whine... that's all that board seemed to have to say.
Fast forward to yesterday...
A girl asked a question, innocently enough, and someone called her offensive. I claimed I didn't think so, and suggested that the M/C forum would be better to discuss what she was going through. What I meant, but didn't really say because I figured it was assumed, was if she found out she was, in fact, miscarrying. A bunch of women agreed that she wasn't offensive and said not to post on the MC forum, but one in particular went on the crusade that she had a miscarriage... or four, and how could anyone think that women who had miscarriages could handle being asked a question, or even see tickers on someone's page. She stated she couldn't handle it even know, while she was pregnant again and ironically had tickers.
I suggested, as anyone would if they weren't trying to be all politically correct, that maybe she needed some help to deal with that. It only spiraled down after the rest of the day.
I realized that she was going to yap and complain when no one was even speaking to her, but she had felt the need to input her 20 cents into a thread where she shouldn't have even been if she claimed miscarriages were so taboo for her. For Pete's sake, the title was "If you've ever had a miscarriage, come on in..." So she had to know it would be a hot-button issue for her. But, since there are a contingent of women on this board who crave the drama and love the taste of their own tears, onward she went.
At this point, I had grown far-tired of this discussion. I was hoping the OP would have deleted the thread because it was now just drama and nit-picking, but it has yet to be deleted.
As it stands, there are women on here who claim to dislike me so much, yet they continue to seek me out. There were at least three, and now four including yours, threads with my name in the title. This should show you that I have gotten exactly what I wanted out of them. A reaction. Attention. Just to piss them off in general.
They are too hormonal to realize that they are simply giving in to me. They have given the power of all of this to the person they claim to despise. I can post anything I want to and they will all PM each other and discuss what to say to try to get that mean old Emjay back. I won't bother, but I could.
Little do they know, I am one of those people that cannot be offended in real life, much less on a forum populated by anonymous trolls.
Not all of the women on here are like that. I have come across some very nice people on here... but some must have lives that are so unfulfilled that they look to mine for enjoyment. I don't have any problems with my life. I am a nurse, I have a great man, great kids, and another on the way. I never ask advice or complain about my guy on here. I read... I comment here and there, and then I go about my business.
It's only after I realize that someone is so emotionally crippled and can't stop posting to me, about me, etc... that I come back for more. It's more to poke at them like little animals at the zoo.
If they would control themselves, this wouldn't happen. But, the more and more that they do this... the more and more they will get. I don't mean any harm, but they are quite a harassing bunch of people. I feel like they think they have a right to announce their stance on everything, but should anyone else say anything that doesn't line up with their beliefs, you become a target. As you can see... by their abundance of posts/threads.
One of them even resorted to calling me Mary Kay Letorneou or whatever her name is because I have a younger man. Ooooh hurt me! Yeah, I have a very handsome 25-year-old guy in my life. Are they jealous? Probably. Why? Because I can handle a relationship with someone 11 years younger than me? Silly women. Is that the only thing they can come up with?
So... that's the scoop. They shower me with attention... unwanted attention, I should add. You have never seen me make a post to or about anyone on this board, ever. The only one I made was one telling someone she had a PM, and then I deleted it. Yes, they also barged in there posting on a thread with no text, merely a title saying she had a PM.
I feel like Kim Kardashian or something with the press following me around everywhere, tracking my every move.
So... that is the scoop, right from Emjay, herself.
I wish the attention and stalking would go away. Is there any need to make thread after thread directed to me? Taking screen shots of my online status? It's truly ridiculous.
I woke up early to take my son to summer camp, and had a feeling things would have been going on all night, and I find the thread count has now gone up to 4, and they have been posting for hours.
Anyway, I have to go drop my son off. They have a good field trip today so I have to get him fed and ready to go.
Hopefully sometime today they can delete all their stalker threads, and leave me alone. I certainly won't seek anyone out. They should just give up this stalking crusade.
I think you can now see what the scoop is on emjay. I'm glad she was able to clear herself up like that......

OP - I'm guessing that answered your question.
LOLz... for someone who made the claim that they are an editor, you don't seem to know the difference between "know" and "now"....
Holy Fark EmJay, we all get that you're a self-absorbed AW. You don't need to keep pointing it out.

There is not too much that makes me LOL on these boards anymore. However, I have never seen a dissertation of quite the magnitude of EmJay's.

I can't wait for the "im getting a divorce" post in 5 years or so because your husbands were fed up with your disgusting chair asses from playing on the knot all day and getting fired 4-5 times for not doing any work. you guys are all winners!! ~ Laur929
Is that all you could come up with? OP, do you see what I mean?
Forgive me for typing a very long response and not proof-reading. At this point, I really don't care. When my internet comes back up I will fix it but it's a pain doing that with these tiny iphone touch buttons. Sad though, after all I said you could only come up with that as your response.
But, Suntoto, thank you for proving my point so effectively.
No, honey. I think you're confused. Kim Kardashian has a big ass. You are a big ass.
Pot, it's the kettle. Guess what?
Pretty sure you pulled the same thing in one of our dialogs of love and devotion last night. But again, I understand that self-awareness is not your thing.
You have so many other lovely qualities, please don't fret too much about this lacking, okay dearest?
did anyone actually read all of that?
I think I got to the end of her first paragraph before I started hearing the voice of Charlie Brown's teacher in my head.
Actually you are bit too stupid to see the point of me pointing out your mistakes. I believe you did the EXACT same thing to ambrandau earlier. So your attempted criticism of me is just laughable and makes you a hypocrite.
Guess what. I didn't make this thread or any of the others bearing my name. However, I have every intention of responding to a post anytime I want, especially when it has my name on it.
I am only an attention whore if I ask for the attention. You guys are forcing this attention on me so don't complain.
When you guys find something better to do than follow me around, your life will be more enjoyable.
Shoo fly...
Personally, I am having a great time. Any chance to get closer to you is a chance I will take.
LOL, wtfever. If you didn't like or want the attention, you would have a) STFU or b) left by now.
So how about you take your own advice and SHOO FLY.

Pretty sure I don't recall asking you to read it... or asking anyone to make a thread about me.
Go away... stalkers!
Why are people giving her the satisfaction of thinking she is important enough to listen to?
FTW!!!!!
God no. My eyes would have rolled in the back of my head had I tried.
I typed that before the internet dropped for the whole neighborhood.
Comcast.
From my perspective, her real sin was trying to shame someone else for incorrect diction when she didn't know what the fvck she was talking about. All the rest of it is run-of-the-mill self-aggrandizing delusion and nothing The Bump doesn't see eight times on a Tuesday, but I can't watch the English language being massacred and not speak out. These days it sadly needs all the help it can get.

No, actually I only commented on her saying she had suffered "permanent psychic damage" after a long back and forth. She was going on and on, so I figured since she was so flared up I would just annoy her at that point. In general, especially on the internet, I don't bother to correct people. I prefer informal communication online most of the time anyway.
But they didn't have much other to base their argument, so they had to latch on to something.
As for the "self-aggrandizing delusion", I would prefer nothing more than for them to all go away and just go about their business.
Often I disagree with something, state my case, they state theirs, and two threads later I might be in agreement with that same person on a different topic. It has often been the case.
But these people just won't give up... It's ridiculous when I come home from work and there are three threads with my name on it, and wake up to another. I'm not going around making threads to keep this up.
See me as the bad guy all you want, but this is mostly a bunch of crap from a certain group of women with nothing better to do.
At least William Carlos Williams used his time between patients to write poetry and not internet board blather. . . oy.
As for your assumptions about me - which you gleefully lept to, those here who know me know well how much you do not understand about me. And those who don't are welcome to figure it out or come to their own conclusions. You certainly came to the wrong ones.
My Blog
As I stated, I did not write all of that on my iphone, and I don't take care of patients when I'm at home.
This is soooo old. I would be nothing less than happy to see every thread with my name in it disappear and everyone go back to guess whether new members are pregnant.
well we def know that emjay has never had a newborn because 1.) they don;t sleep 10hrs a day and when you want to take a 5min shower you can't because all they want is to be held and 2.) as soon as you finish a cycle with a newborn it starts right up again so good luck trying to eat your lunch or nap when they nap because they cat nap a few minutes at a time. and 3.) I think she just has no life and needs something to make her feel better about herself and ragging on people annonomously on a chat board is safer for her since its not direct contact.
FYI- if you don't like her then block her at the bottom of her post, Then you won't have to look at her ugly mug.
I've given birth to TWO healthy children. I don't know how you can't take a shower for 5 minutes, because babies do sleep. A LOT as a newborn. They spend most of their time sleeping. Unless you're one of those attachment parenting people that can't put their baby down. I never had a problem doing anything I needed to do.
Yes please... block me. So I don't have to hear from most of you ever again.
And yes, I'm sorry my standard bump graphic is too ugly for you. You'll have to talk to the bump about it.
Still waiting for people to stop posting and start deleting threads so this board can stop focusing on me. It's annoying.
word. all i got from that novel she wrote was "blah, blah...i'm self important. i don't care about you so much i'm going to write 1000 word essay on it"
Your posts are long enough. You don't have to keep going back into them and ADDING more crap.
Blah blah blah.

You see how this comes across a bit weird, right? Why in the world do you want that reaction/attention so badly? Especially after stating repeatedly that you wish this would all just go away...
And more importantly, why would you make yourself out to be the kind of person who pokes at little animals at the zoo?? Eek.
I have no idea what prompted all this drama, but after reading this, I'm joining everyone else in giving you a major side-eye here.....
(b/c you can't seem to sense sarcasm, I am letting you know ahead of time that this is said sarcastically. )
God, you are sooo full of yourself. Or should I say you are not humble? I mean, really, sevens, it's just selfish to write something like this for someone who will need a dictionary for every other word.
