Things I remember: I was so annoyed by like 89% of everybody for what felt like unnecessary upheaval. While I still maintain that the TCF exodus was a bit too histrionic and dramatic for my taste, Truer words have never been spoken.
I am still wondering what happened that made the domestic so angry on D day.
If the slowness of the last several weeks here are any indication it was at least 80% boredom.

Remember when they made a thread to welcome us but it was not at all welcoming? Next time we argue over the definition of passive aggressive that should be the example given. Welcome but we have rules. Don’t be yourselves. You can’t do this whole list of things. Don’t touch our stuff. That is your side. Do not cross the line to my side. I don’t care that the door and the bathroom are on my side.

And this is where I peed myself laughing. I had forgotten about this.

I was in class during the SM meltdown and was trying my best to keep up. I remember sending a PM to brux and few others that everything would settle down soon and it wouldn’t be a problem. And then like an hour later the site was down. 🤣 Same. I remember saying something like, it’ll be ok. I see this working out in time. Then shut down almost right after. Guess I was wrong

Which I get...but then it gets kind of boring with only a few people interacting with you (me). Maybe I am just too internet sensitive?

I kinda read through that thread but wasn’t it just outing ripper and know we know so we can just carry on ?

So post away. If you turn out to be a psycho in two years I can say "my bad."

I also don't agree it's been slow for weeks. Maybe just since all the deactivations and shit. That was what? A week and a couple of days?

The Scary Mommy admins asked me to create a team of people from TCF to have meetings with them to sort out how to assimilate into their board. I spent my damn weekend reaching out to people who had been active and vocal in those chaotic days, cross referencing with post counts on their TCF home boards to try my best to have a broad representation of posted from TCF to come to the table. And then those ScaryMommy admins pulled the plug. I should send them an invoice for all my wasted time. Wow that is very very serious for a message board. That plane was very strict.

Yea. I'm just saying with whatever drama I get why some people wouldn't want to mess with unknown posters.
It just gets a little boring when that happens is what I really mean.

I don't really have anything exciting to talk about anyway. That is probably the real issue.

And once I make it through the longest and hottest 4 weeks of my life all the days will blend together, so I will defer to those who have use of at least most of their brains.

What is the Narnia Balls thing? I missed it happening in real time, so I’m imagining instead of responding to tags she just wrote ‘balls’. I’m assuming that’s not correct, but who knows. She tried posting proof of someone being shady; she had removed them as a moderator. The pictures that were “proof” kept showing up as blank boxes. She posted “balls” in frustration. Typing that I’m like “maybe you had to be there.”

I looked and AmyG and McBenny made their accounts here on 5/19/17. Everyone else started following on the evening of 5/20. We then went through some dark days: two competing boards, certain subboards refusing to migrate and setting up shop in the far nether regions of the internet, certain members refusing to migrate because they believed (falsely) that the original Admin of this site was a shady character. So let's call early June our anniversary, just like the sloppy start of a college relationship when you're fucking lots of dudes and you're not quite sure when you became actually official with your boyfriend.This is a beautiful analogy. OMG yes. I also read this in a Jim Bruer/Half Baked voice.

I still think about the lady who claimed she was a collared submissive SAHM pretty much daily. Oh damn, I'd forgotten about her!

Has it been a year?? My ILs were visiting and I fully ignored them the whole weekend. At one point, I escaped to the grocery store and sat in the patio furniture display for an hour just to catch up. What a weird time.

I was being induced when the whole place burned down. Being so distracted was excellent pain management until the sweet epidural.
I should come out of the Royals thread and post over here more often.

It is quiet around here recently. I think people just like everybody. There’s no burning drama or anything. That’s my theory.

I mean people were burning down the place before the mod pic fiasco.
It was an episode of when domestic animals attack for sure.
