[Opinions] Re: Martha, Harriet, and Ruth
in reply to a message by oak
I'd feel sorry for them.And if I didn't know their ages, I would picture three octogenarians living in a nursing home, bickering with each other and the other residents, playing Bingo and watching the soaps and complaining about why their grandchildren don't come see them more often.

I'm happy to say that my taste is the polar opposite of yours (this is not a bad thing for either party). I guess taste abhors a vacuum.

Do you really have to make comments such at this to people when their opinions don't coincide with yours? Opinions, by the way, that you asked for? Why are you asking for opinions? Do you just want to be answered by a bunch of "Yes-men"? If so, then please don't ask here. That's not what this board is for.

Her comments are typically the rudest posted, were it not for yours, while mine was entirely benign. If you don't want others sharing their opinions, do consider posting elsewhere.

"Our taste is not the same" is not an opinion. It's a statement of fact, and an unnecessary one, to anyone who can read. It was pretty obvious from your post that you like the names, and obvious that RoxStar doesn't, so why the need to point this out? I once posted about Ribbon Rose, stating that I liked it, I asked for opinions, and pretty predictably, the opinions were all negative. Did I answer every single post (and there were many), saying, "Well, I don't agree with you"? No, it's unnecessary and annoying. It smacks of only wanting to hear positive opinions, and that's not what this board is for. Few things are more annoying than when someone asks for opinions and then argues with them.And RoxStar's post was not rude. She doesn't like the names, you asked what impression they gave her, and what bearers of the name would be like, she answered your questions, and she typically does so in an imaginative and usually funny way. Nothing rude about that, you just didn't like the answer. So then don't ask the question. And my answer was not rude, either.
