I've decided to take different days to wear all sorts of things that look like religious head coverings. Because I can. One day, I'm going to wear a pharaoh hat.
Suck it, all of you.
Are you gonna wear the matching frown of derision?
I don't think wearing a scarf on your head makes you a fake jew. And I wouldn't wear something that brings me threats of violence either, regardless if the threats are coming from prejudiced haters. It's not a prejudice thing, it's a self-preservation thing. You don't go wearing your favorite red outfit down in the crip neighborhood.
Aw, it's a futile attempt if you're looking for some kind of apology or owning up to shittiness. Most of em are just bitches. They'll never admit to or possibly even perceive their douchiness. You're just going to have to ignore them, forgive & tolerate them or leave the board to find nicer people. Don't believe them or take them seriously. Some can be serious, but a lot not. They don't know you. You don't know them. It's not worth the effort to stress over it. (psst, I think some of them are robots anyway)
I theorize that drinks (alcoholic) help with the forgive and tolerate option. Just think of them as semi-retarded ugly kids being bullies online to make up for being too chickenshit to be bullies in real life. Or maybe they're bullied in real life and need to pick on someone to feel good. They may have nothing else to live for in their sorry existences; just look how often they're on here being shitty. I don't think half of them work for a living, though some claim some very interesting careers. It's all a big costume party. Pick a costume, have a drink and let's party!
One of the things I respect about AW is that she doesn't say things like this, and I'm guessing might even be pretty disturbed by someone speaking on her behalf using the phrase "semi-retarded ugly kids".
I don't strongly associate head scarves with any particular religion, so I'm having a hard time seeing eye to eye with the "wearing one this way makes you a fake Jew". Of course, even if it was a symbol really "owned" by one religion, I don't get where the outrage would come from. Assuming the person isn't desecrating the symbol, why care?

i know not one catholic woman who covers her head. i know plenty old italian catholics who run around wearing black for 40 years to mourn their husbands and pray the rosary every day, and even they don't cover their heads.
Um, weren't you just clutching your pearls yesterday about people attacking others? Now you're jumping in head first calling people retarded?
You clearly have no clue about the culture of this board.
I don't have to have a clue. I can read. Open your eyes chica, more than half this board is mean ass bitches who'd rather say why they think you're stupid/wrong than say what and why they believe what they believe. If their beliefs on any topic only go as far as how stupid they think your opinions are, they're dumb as well as mean ass bitches.
I was schooled very recently on the culture of this board. Maybe you didn't know but being mean and cussing people out is half the fun/point of this board. It is an escape from reality, common courtesy and manners. A mod even piped in and said they serve the people but don't oppose the people (I think she meant impose on the people, but either way, we have freedom to be as shitty as possible to eachother here). During that very educational conversation, I learned the party rules. Yes, I am joining this meanfest to measure its entertainment value. You missed a thread somewhere from yesterday. I think wawa and haabsies were there.
I tried to be polite and productive in conversations and got attacked for being sheltered and foolish for expecting a mod to regulate courtesy and respect. Shitty people aren't liking it when I treat them the way they treat others though. It's been somewhat amusing so far to turn the tables if not very satisfying.
I was only calling you retarded if you're one of the ones that doesn't believe in being a reasonably good person even on the web, which in the case of this thread are the people joining the "Aw is a fake jew" bashfest. If you think she's wrong, why not just say, "I think that's wrong" instead of saying, "You make me sick, You're so evil, You're being a prejudiced fake jew".
I almost always express myself with statements saying, I think this or I feel that or I am this, etc. That's because I'm sharing myself in my post, MY view, MY opinion. Posts that go like, You are this and You think that or You believe this are typically judgemental attacks on a person, not a sharing of one's own concurrent or opposing opinion on that topic. The Youyouyou posters often quote you very inaccurately too. I've affectionately dubbed those the "tail chasers". I think they either don't have their own opinion or can't express why they disagree with yours, so they erect this imaginary strawman post of yours to attack visciously and personally.
I would really rather all be nice. But I won't unless we all do it and mods will enforce it. I tried to ask people nicely to stop being shitty at me, they got more shitty. Then I found out that was ok on this board. I don't make the rules around here. Talk to the mods if you don't like it.
I'll be civil again when I can expect some civility in return and expulsion for those that can't discuss with respect. This board has no and will never have a reputation for welcome and respect for divergent thoughts and views without such a conduct policy.
Is anyone reading this dude's posts anymore? Because I just sort of skim.
don't worry. you're not missing anything.
I dunno, he said he was on crack earlier, and obviously missed that tef's siggy is from Toddlers in Tiaras. I'm getting the vibe that this person is really REALLY sheltered.

Hold up. Seesaw's a guy? Someone please explain.
Yeah, when did we figure this out??
Also, the .gifs in this thread are epic. Well done.

This is why I can't read the board during the day. I'll be trying to nurse the baby to sleep and ::wham!:: I see this and dissolve into laughter, waking up the baby.
Is this "Toddlers in Tiaras" a site full of child porn? If so, why did you just tell all the pedophiles where to find more? You know this is a public forum. Please exercise some kind of discretion.
A still picture of this girl could be charming... creating/displaying an animation of her humping it up is gross.
I saw the thread with the rules of conduct. Obscene sexual content involving children is not allowed (thank god something isn't). How does one go about reporting such content? To a mod, Admin, this Nest thing or what?
Can only members report? I will so join as a member.
Toddlers and Tiaras is a show on TLC, on cable television, in the US. And Tef didn't make that little girl do that. Her mama did, on purpose, because some people are cracked.
I do know non-Catholic Christians who cover their hair in church. They wear those doily things.
At my MIL's synagogue, there is a whole stack of these black doilies and a bowl of bobby pins. I had no idea what they were for and then I noticed all the little old ladies with them pinned in their hair.
