VENT

So, this morning I am happily browsing Facebook when I see this little gem reposted by my cousin. It is one of those false viral photos that basically claim that Obama has paid actors to stand in during crisis in order to

So I wrote this:

 I would normall say, "Aghhhh, that is crazy!!", but it is not true..... def something to be researched before re-posting on Facebook. (we don't want people to think that WE are the crazy ones, now do we?)

 And she responded with:

I'm sorry If i offended you Jenny. Where did you do your research because I would be interested in looking it up. I don't KNOW if this is true or not. It caught my attention and I thought it was interesting. Maybe it would have been less offensive to you if I had posted it with ?????'s . There is no reason to treat me like a child and talk down to me. I could comment on plenty of your BRAGGING posts on Facebook... but I don't:/ gotta pick your battles....

 I am PISSED with her response. I was not trying to be offensive, talk down to her, and I have gone back to all of my facebook posts for the past year, and have no idea what I may be braggin about.

    wow... 

    IMO, I think her response was 'ok' until it got to the part that says "theres no reason to treat me like a child.... blah blah blah..."

    I'd be pissed too if I were in your shoes!

    I'd be mad too. I feel like if you are going to post a political article on facebook you have to be prepared for people to disagree with you. Especially, when it sounds as crazy as that article. For the bragging in your posts maybe, she is referring to posts about your lo. Personally I love to post things about my kids and I love to see posts about my friends kids. For me it's a great way to stay in touch. I know it annoys some people though.

    She does! She has 3 beautiful little girls, one is 4, 2, and 6 weeks. All of which I comment all the time about how beautiful and sweet they are! I will say that she didn't get preg right away with the third and she kept writing all the time about how she should be " thankful for what I have and not what I don't have", bc she wanted a boy while it was taking me two years to get preg with my first, so I DID get snippy about that, but that was a year ago at least!

    I would have been pissed too, also half tempted to write something back super bitchy. However, I most likely would have responded with "Not a battle, just an opinion. No need to get overly defensive. If you don't want other people opinions, don't post things on the internet."

    I would be annoyed with that comment. I would probably private message or call about it.
