| #1xladyfayreJan 29, 2013 9:46:29 | This morning when I got up I checked facebook as I always do. On it, the sister of two girls I went to school with posted an article about how horrible aspertame is. The problem is the article is proven wrong by snopes and to go further the picture in the article pictures Splenda which has nothing to do with the article. After posting the snopes link her and her sister posted several links to me- both clearly bias. Does that kind of thing annoy you? |

| #4WolfLordBranJan 29, 2013 10:20:29 | *Gets the OTTerette a tinfoil hat just in case* Here you go ma'am. In case he gets too loony just throw some wild statement out there and let him pounce on it as you run. Don't take any of his statements as true, as he's a top notch conspiracy theorist who believes "Facts" that he hears are the Gospel truth. |
| #5Robin_HoodlumJan 29, 2013 10:22:59 | Does that kind of thing annoy you? Oh let me count the ways.... |
| #6xladyfayreJan 29, 2013 10:34:14 | Like I really don't get how people can believe chain letters on facebook. Then they post to me articles that aren't even from credible sources. |
| #7pigknightJan 29, 2013 11:05:13 | Does that kind of thing annoy you? Was expecting this when I read the OP. |
| #8zombie_babiesJan 29, 2013 11:41:40 | Like I really don't get how people can believe chain letters on facebook. Then they post to me articles that aren't even from credible sources. You do understand that there's a block function, right? I use it on people that spam crap. Especially religious and/or 'inspirational' crap. I know how to find stuff on the internet. If I wanted to find that garbage I would have. If you think I'm interested you have no idea who I am - which, to be fair, is often by design. But anyhoo, don't post that crap. Ever. |
| #9xladyfayreJan 29, 2013 12:38:32 | Like I really don't get how people can believe chain letters on facebook. Then they post to me articles that aren't even from credible sources. I never posted the article or any like that she posted, lol. I check facebook but rarely reply to people. I replied to her because the article was so stupid. I don't want to block her because I don't hate her and some things she posts are actually interesting. I just don't get how someone can believe such a blatant chain letter. Its not even a real article, honestly. |
| #10Robin_HoodlumJan 29, 2013 12:42:41 | Don't use FB. I got off that a while ago. People will survive without your account being on FB. |
| #11zombie_babiesJan 29, 2013 12:42:56 | I never posted the article or any like that she posted, lol. I check facebook but rarely reply to people. I replied to her because the article was so stupid. I don't want to block her because I don't hate her and some things she posts are actually interesting. I just don't get how someone can believe such a blatant chain letter. Its not even a real article, honestly. Psst ... ... people like that aren't worth talking to. Cuz they're idiots. ... ![]() Srsly. Why waste the time? How much could she really have to offer if she's that stupid? You're friends are a reflection of you. Keep betterer ones. |
| #12Robin_HoodlumJan 29, 2013 12:47:54 | You're friends are a reflection of you. Keep betterer ones. Which is why I only have, like, 3 "friends"... and some of them are co-workers. I have little time for friends, what with a shrew of a wife and kids younger than 4. It's why I drink my face off on Saturdays. |
| #13xladyfayreJan 29, 2013 12:59:53 | Oh no I really like facebook because it allows me to have better contact with my heart camp friends. |
| #14xladyfayreJan 29, 2013 13:02:56 | I never posted the article or any like that she posted, lol. I check facebook but rarely reply to people. I replied to her because the article was so stupid. I don't want to block her because I don't hate her and some things she posts are actually interesting. I just don't get how someone can believe such a blatant chain letter. Its not even a real article, honestly. Like I said, sometimes she posts things worth reading and other times she doesn't- like flooding the feed with anti-abortion stuff. I mean its fine to believe something but flooding just annoys people. I know her and her two sisters from church years ago. |

I mean its fine to believe something but flooding just annoys people. I know her and her two sisters from church years ago. Yeah, I'd have that tool on block. Er, no. That's a lie. I'd never be friends with someone like that in the first place. ![]() |

I thought that was because you hate having the taste of cheap processed Beer Product TM in your mouth when you wake up on Mondays? |
| #17Robin_HoodlumJan 29, 2013 14:18:39 |
Err.. what? I only drink on Saturdays (unless it's a special occasion), and even though it is usually Pabst, lately I have been drinking Yuengling. Also, I smoke home-made "cigarettes" ![]() |
| #18WolfLordBranJan 29, 2013 17:24:27 |
Exactly! Cheap processed Beer ProductTM. |
| #19The_SilverswordJan 30, 2013 1:42:29 | Aspertame really is bad stuff though, I mean truly awful, I cant think of one good thing that has aspertame in it, NOT ONE!! Seriously give me real sugar anyday of the week, or at the very least High fructose corn syrup, mmmmmmmmmmmmmm. |
| #20homicidal_squirrelJan 30, 2013 9:00:37 | Aspertame really is bad stuff though, I mean truly awful, I cant think of one good thing that has aspertame in it, NOT ONE!! Cancer /Thread. Seriously give me real sugar anyday of the week, or at the very least High fructose corn syrup, mmmmmmmmmmmmmm. That stuff is terrible for you. You should really try to avoid it. |
| #21xladyfayreJan 30, 2013 10:29:53 | Aspertame really is bad stuff though, I mean truly awful, I cant think of one good thing that has aspertame in it, NOT ONE!! Seriously give me real sugar anyday of the week, or at the very least High fructose corn syrup, mmmmmmmmmmmmmm. I'm not saying its good and that it should be consumed but the article is nothing more than a propaganda chain letter. It even pictures products that don't have any apertame in it. I told her that her source is invalid and has been sqaushed by snopes so she found more unreliable sources not even from medical journals. Why is it acceptable to be 'safe than sorry' and believe a chain letter? Then she told me, "oh i'd rather be safe than sorry and not put that in my body". Oh, okay that's fine but your source is still a chain letter. |
| #22zombie_babiesJan 30, 2013 11:41:42 | A chain letter cured my AIDS. |
| #23KlirshonJan 30, 2013 11:47:35 | Now just don't go to any doctors. You won't get sick if they can't tell you what you got. |
| #24xladyfayreJan 30, 2013 11:59:28 | Now just don't go to any doctors. You won't get sick if they can't tell you what you got. I don't think she goes to the doctors or vaccinates either. |
| #25draco1119Jan 30, 2013 12:02:36 | Sounds like we should see about hooking her up with Loki. And then making sure they never, EVER reproduce. |
| #26xladyfayreJan 30, 2013 12:08:49 | Sounds like we should see about hooking her up with Loki. And then making sure they never, EVER reproduce. Haha, she has three kids which she home schools. I don't have anything against home schooling if you actually teach your kids and give them enough social interaction with people. Not everyone benefits from a traditional classroom. But she home remedies a lot and uses horseradish and mayo to cure fevers instead of medicine... o.O I never met her kids because a long time ago the family moved away. Then she and the twins (the girls I went to school with) moved as well. As for me, I'll stick with doctors when something goes wrong and medicine when I get a fever. |
| #27zombie_babiesJan 30, 2013 12:17:44 | Now just don't go to any doctors. You won't get sick if they can't tell you what you got. Of course. Everyone knows it's the only way you get anything worse than a cold. Haha, she has three kids which she home schools. I don't have anything against home schooling if you actually teach your kids and give them enough social interaction with people. Not everyone benefits from a traditional classroom. But she home remedies a lot and uses horseradish and mayo to cure fevers instead of medicine... o.O There's a word for people like her. Of course, I can't say it here. And, you know, Joe Flacco just got in some trouble for saying it, too. It's the new other word I can't say here. You know, the word from that Django movie - but that's not the word I'd call her. I'd call her that other one. Like, all the time. |
| #28draco1119Jan 30, 2013 12:38:47 | Lemme guess... It starts with "ret" and doesn't end in "con", right? |
| #29zombie_babiesJan 30, 2013 13:09:46 | Maybe. ![]() Can you believe we can't say that word anymore? It's ... well I can't say what it is now can I? ![]() |
| #30goremgbJan 30, 2013 14:02:43 | Sadly I've learned to tolerate stupid ignorance just enough to let the little stuff slide. Otherwise my heart would explode from high blood pressure lol. |
| #31Mad_JackJan 31, 2013 20:44:32 | I actually like people like that - they just reinforce my innate belief in my own genetic and intellectual superiority over the rest of so-called humanity... |
| #32The_SilverswordFeb 01, 2013 0:18:17 | Gah! She changed her avatar again! We talked about this! WITFH!!!?!!!??! |
| #33trappedsliderFeb 01, 2013 1:41:08 | Gah! She changed her avatar again! We talked about this! WITFH!!!?!!!??! atleast it doesn't say "you just lost the game" |
| #34The_SilverswordFeb 01, 2013 2:37:04 | That woulda been better than Kill monkey, I mean seriously, why would we want to kill monkeys? Monkeys are great fun, they like to in public as well as and and they like to throw at you! Why would you want to kill them!? |
| #35xladyfayreFeb 01, 2013 10:06:18 | I got tired of not having a face on my avatar so I found one that does. Lol, in this episode of Charmed there is a monkey totem that an evil crone brings to life. Paige's first thought was to kill the monkey that took her speech away however later figured out that killing the monkies would not give them their senses back. I'm probably going to keep this avatar for quite a awhile though I may resize that sig again later- or see if I can find one less huge. |
| #36draco1119Feb 01, 2013 10:50:26 | Crazy_monkey might think it's directed at him. Especially here in the OTT. |
| #37Robin_HoodlumFeb 01, 2013 11:56:43 | Crazy_monkey might think it's directed at him. Especially here in the OTT. And maybe it really is... ![]() |
| #38xladyfayreFeb 01, 2013 11:59:53 | Who is Crazy_monkey? |
| #39Robin_HoodlumFeb 01, 2013 12:01:49 | Who is Crazy_monkey? You'll see as soon as TS reports your post for disruption or hate speech... or something... |
| #40xladyfayreFeb 01, 2013 12:49:47 | Who is Crazy_monkey? How is my post hate speech? I simply asked a question. |
| #41Robin_HoodlumFeb 01, 2013 12:50:28 | Who is Crazy_monkey? Exactly. |
| #42zombie_babiesFeb 01, 2013 13:00:03 | How is my post hate speech? I simply asked a question. He didn't say it was, sweetie. |
| #43trappedsliderFeb 01, 2013 13:09:21 | Who is Crazy_monkey? he's part of the community management team that the OTTers dislike |
| #44Robin_HoodlumFeb 01, 2013 13:12:12 | Who is Crazy_monkey? ![]() |
| #45trappedsliderFeb 01, 2013 13:14:56 | Who is Crazy_monkey? only in your paraniod mind you hipster |
| #46Robin_HoodlumFeb 01, 2013 13:16:59 | Who is Crazy_monkey? ![]() |
| #47Mr_MiscellanyFeb 01, 2013 13:18:49 | They need a left-handed one of these. The right-handed one's been used a lot today. It looks tired. Smilies. I care and you can too. |
| #48Robin_HoodlumFeb 01, 2013 13:19:41 | They need a left-handed one of these. That's what she said. |
| #49xladyfayreFeb 01, 2013 14:05:53 | Who is Crazy_monkey? Oh, I see. I saw someone delete posts and whatnot but I really didn't pay attention to the name, honestly. |
| #50Robin_HoodlumFeb 01, 2013 14:28:21 |
None of us really do. It doesn't really matter. And discussion of moderation is verbotten, so we better knock it off before TS sees us... |
| #51ADHadhFeb 02, 2013 18:19:37 | But she home remedies a lot and uses horseradish and mayo to cure fevers instead of medicine... o.O Weird. Garlic and honey sound like more obvious choices. And they actually work. (I'm one of those people that don't like shoving fistfuls of medicine down my throat every time I have a cold ) |
| #52draco1119Feb 02, 2013 19:43:10 | You'd rather shove fistfuls of something else down your throat, wouldn't you? EE & EA are taking apps for that. ![]() |
| #53EscherEnigmaFeb 02, 2013 20:52:19 | I don't need an app for that, but if you do, I hear Grindr works. |
| #54xladyfayreFeb 02, 2013 22:21:10 | But she home remedies a lot and uses horseradish and mayo to cure fevers instead of medicine... o.O I just read that on her facebook, lol. So garlic and honey reduce fevers? |
| #55Hipster_DogFeb 02, 2013 22:34:02 | But she home remedies a lot and uses horseradish and mayo to cure fevers instead of medicine... o.O Seriously, garlic is great against fever from cold/flu. But for it to be effective, well you need to slip it inside your bum. Seriously, google it. |
| #56The_SilverswordFeb 02, 2013 22:58:44 | didnt they do that on an episode of South Park? |
| #57Hipster_DogFeb 02, 2013 23:22:14 | didnt they do that on an episode of South Park? The simpsons already did it. |
| #58The_SilverswordFeb 02, 2013 23:24:27 | didnt they do that on an episode of South Park? Nooooooo! Professor Chaos wont like that one bit! |
| #59Robin_HoodlumFeb 03, 2013 7:12:13 | Off-topic, but how long do you think one of us would last with "kill monkey" on our avatar? No, seriously, how long? |
| #60ADHadhFeb 03, 2013 8:34:56 | I just read that on her facebook, lol. Actually yeah, garlic is known for for it's anti-bacterial and anti-viral properties. Of course for a full-blown flu conventional medicine is a lot better, but with coughs or colds it helps to eat some raw garlic. That is, if you and your environment can stand the smell ![]() Honey also helps with a sore throat or a cough. Wikipedia also claims that it's been successfully used in treating diabetic ulcers, but I've never had any problems with that personally, so I can't tell from experience ![]() |
| #61xladyfayreFeb 03, 2013 10:41:55 | Off-topic, but how long do you think one of us would last with "kill monkey" on our avatar? Lol, its from a Charmed episode. |

| #64bone_nagaFeb 04, 2013 20:03:13 | If facebook existed when the eugenics movement was still in vogue, the world would be a very different place right now. |
| #65The_SilverswordFeb 04, 2013 22:43:49 | What!? Eugenics isnt vogue anymore? And to think of all that money I donated to Planned Parenthood! |
| #66homicidal_squirrelFeb 04, 2013 23:34:45 | What!? Eugenics isnt vogue anymore? And to think of all that money I donated to Planned Parenthood! Your money wasn't wasted. They make great pasta sauce (or gravy as some would call it). |
| #67The_SilverswordFeb 05, 2013 0:38:03 | As long as theyre still passing out condoms to elementary school kids its all good. |
