Stolen from MM

I wonder if that Sue person that argued with me in a previous post was an AE.

On a similar note, I wish we had more random/controversial AEs.

FWIW, I've always thought smurfette was real and never got the troll vibe. I think she's just young, inexperienced, and naive.

I tried to just ignore Smurf forever, and many times still do. But I still just can't decide if she's real or a troll. My irritability and bitchiness just comes out a lot when reading her shit. If she is real though then I think she needs some "tough love" so to say. It's pretty evident that she lacks the confidence to make any type of decision on her own, even on the most basic topics, and that's not a good thing. As a grown adult, someone's wife, and potentially a future mother, she needs to learn how to make decisions for herself without turning to other people every single time.

I have a lot of questions, but they're bitchy. If they were just snarky, I'd go for it.

This.

Is there some way to prove I am real? You can ask me questions. I don't mind. If you don't want me posting on this board just tell me and I won't

You're posting style has completely changed IMO. It's hard to describe but now you seem to be too educated for the lack of education you claim to have.

Hi, ok since stan wants new people here i'll play! I have a confession... I've been lurking for ever, like years :/ I have commented a few time but never felt I had something interesting to post! I promise i'm not creepy although it kind of seems like it! ha!

also (since I'm a creepy lurker..!) I don't think Smurf is a troll I just think she is really naive and needs to gain confidence but she's young.. she'll get it eventually!

Smurf, I think it's how quickly your writing style has improved. When you were first posting as I<3MyAirman, your writing seemed very, very different than it does now.

I remember I<3My Airman and had no idea that was Smurfette. The writing style is completely different-not just a couple of GED classes different, but like middle school to college different.

Oh and I'm new! I've posted a few times but have mainly just lurked. I really didn't have much time for GBCN because of work, but my schedule has switched to nights so now I'm free during the day!

I think that's what gets me irritable with smurfette...the fact that I can't understand how the writing skills changed so quickly.

[basilosaurus]

I don't think a troll could come up with such questions. I mean, asking about finding a newspaper? How to RSVP? Really, it's a story that fits well with someone who was never educated, never taught to critically think and find answers.

I'm not so sure about the writing style. I know I used crazy big words from reading a lot, so I buy it that if your entire education was through books, you might have a writing style beyond your educational attainment. Especially if you're relatively new to the internet and thus unexposed to seeing such bad grammar and spelling regularly.

Hi! Welcome! I'm still pretty new myself even though I've asked more than my fair share of questions over the past week!

[blueshirt2003]

Oh, wow. I thought Smurfette was a completely different person. Not iluvmyairman.

I have to agree, 2 different people?

About a month ago, maybe longer, someone posted under an AE about some marital problems but the post was at a random time, like, 3am for people in the states and I don't think anyone saw it except maybe me or others on this side of the world. The post wasn't that bad or juicy and I think everyone would have sided with the poster but I wonder who it was and how things are going for her.

[ilovelamp]

I can't really think of any. But hello to the new posters!

I feel like I have a lot to catch up on?
