Passive Aggressive FB comments

[TrickyBob]

I posted a photo of a bread I made; I had a few people ask me for a quick white bread recipe that they could use for sandwiches, pizza, etc. I'm widely known on my FB for recipes; if someone needs one, I can usually pull one out pretty quick.

Someone commented with "itd be nice if we all had the time to sit around making our own bread"

I pointed out that the bread takes all of 20 minutes from start to finish.

They followed up with "i have a day job i can't play susie homemaker all day long"

I pointed out that I don't, I just know how to make bread.

They followed with "i bet ur husband doesnt even like it. real men like real food"

LOL.

So homemade bread isn't real food?

I also want to point out that I don't think they've met a "real food" that isn't stuffed full of fillers and processed. Not all of us wants to live off of hamburger helper.

Yeah, uh, that was kind of mean-ish...what the heck. FWIW, I would LOVE some homemade bread!

[ClaireOtoms]

That's not passive aggressive...that's aggressive aggressive.

annnnnnnnd UNfriend. What an ass.

They got the boot.

My philosophy for Facebook is "you know me well enough to know what or how I post, if you don't like it unfriend me or hide me". I follow the same rules for others, their status might irritate me a bit or get annoying but I added them and kept them knowing full well of their posting style. If it bugs me, I hide/unfriend instead of posting stupid comments.

And who the hell doesn't LOVE bread?!

True. I guess I took it as passive with the first comment. lol

Defriend.

However, while the other person was clearly in the wrong for her first comment, there was no need for you to engage and fuel the fire. You know she was just waiting for you to tell her that bread is easy to make.

[nannersp]

Rude. (Them, not you.)

[dojo]

That doesn't sound passive aggressive.. It sounds plain aggressive to me. It also sounds like that bitch feels like she needs to justify why she doesn't do the things you do.

Unfriendly. And recipe, please. 😊


I am the 39%.

2.5 cups warm water
6 tbsp sugar
3 tbsp yeast
2 tbsp oil (olive or veg)
6 cup all purpose flour
2 tsp salt
1 tsp baking powder

Add warm water to bowl, toss in yeast + sugar + oil. Wait a few minutes to let it froth.

Add salt, baking powder, and flour.

Mix up and knead. (I mix up with a spoon and then knead right in the bowl)

Turn out onto either an oiled, floured, or cornmeal baking sheet.

Bake at 400 for 10 to 15 minutes.

I sort of just made mine into an oval lump because I was using it for buffalo chicken dip.

I also cut the recipe in half and it would have made enough for a medium pizza.

[juliagoulia]

She seems like she really has something against bread. Sheesh.

[scotty]

Yes, I'd unfriend this person, ASAP.

[wkatie]

All of those comments were totally rude. I would guess she has something else against you and it's not just the bread. Or she's just a huge bitch.

[nightandday]

Whattabitch!

I'll be making that bread this week

But I'm Susie Homemaker, no one hates Susie!

Miso, you're right, I shouldn't have engaged them. But I really sort of wanted to see what in the world someone had against bread so much they had to comment. I did have a good laugh at "real men like real food"

[imoan]

Eh, engage all you want. She showed you her true colors and you were able to defriend.

[purpleme]

I would unfriend with a quickness! Damm haters!

Yikes. Sounds like you are FB friends with a bunch of assholes.

[underwaterrhymes]

I need to warn that it can get kind of bland. Intend to eat with butter or something flavorful. Lol. I skip the salt so that might be my problem.

[aliceinfairyland]

I'm have some marinara in the fridge. And stuffing to make on Thursday.

[Deleted]

LOL!

Some people.

I am NOT saying you are like this but I have a friend on FB who posts pics of everything she makes. and she is ALWAYS putting her status of things she did, made, baked, cooked or cleaned. It gets ANNOYING

I kinda sorta hate when people post food on Facebook. but that could be my PG hormones or the fact that I cant' cook worth a damn

Yikes so I just realized I didn't see the last part of what she said. She sucks.. She is mean.. and I am glad you defriended

[mamasaurus]

Why do you have shitstains like that on your feed? Unfriend that assclown before s/he farts all over your happiness again.

ETA: Who doesn't like bread? That's a good question! Maybe it's paleo mom.

[alzi]

Maybe she has a gluten intolerance and was offended?

[Teachermama]

That bread sounds delicius.... Maybe I'll make it for thanksgiving to bring over to my moms.... I'll have to ofcourse make a batch for my home to make sure it tastes ok . I love bread

I don't always post stuff or I just put it into an album. Maybe once or twice a week I'll post a recipe, maybe 2 or 3 times a month I'll post a photo of a food. Even then, it goes into the album.

I try to make a conscious effort not to flood FB with it.

Also, if I know someone who isn't a fan of it, I will customize my status and just hide them from seeing my status. ;D

[CheshireGrin]

LOL that real men don't like bread. WTF does that even mean?
