Why does everyone not like Katie?Follow

#1 Mar 01 2004 at 10:16 AM Rating: Decent

Ive been reading these forums for the past couple of months and i noticed that everytime katie has something to say you all are mean to her? what did she do to make you all hate her? im just curious to know why?

Personally it is the insipid nature of the things she has had to say when chiming in on different topics. Ages ago there was a Dalliance/Katielynn battle royale that is probably the first place I noticed her. She made some really choice comments re: blue collar workers, sexual puritanism (this coming from what would be referred to as a "kept woman") and a general view down her nose at the rest of the world. That added with her pad-locked-shut mind where it comes to other people and their choices has led me to consider her nothing more than a leech, and not to bright a one at that.

Some of us do not hate Katie at all. In fact I think she provides a valid contribution to the boards with her opinions Smiley: smile

Active debating is good! You need all types of personality, viewpoints and social makeup to make a board thrive and Katie provides a niche that others do not. Much like Smasharoo, Skeeter etc provide their own special board commentry.

Do I hate her ?

No.

Would I ever keep company with her ?

No.

My problem with her is that she's utterly hypocritical. For example, "anything goes" with her in the bedroom, but participating in certain acts would make her a "***." She's a pharmacist -- and probably a good one at that -- who has no concept beyond what she sees in front of her face. She puts herself in dangerous situations and can't understand why anyone finds her foolish. She is vastly superior to anyone who holds a blue collar job, and yet her goal in life is to be a kept woman.

She's opinionated, and has a nice set of proverbial balls. She's also attractive. Those are her good points.

However, labels and limits are her mainstays, and for that I pity her.

I first noticed her on one of the many anti-drug threads where she was spewing brilliance like, "all druggies should be shot." When called out as a pharmacist, she provided no response to her ridiculous statements, in light of the fact that she contibutes to the drug situation. That is what irritates me about Katie. Her sole contibution to this board is to throw out ridiculous statements, because she is incapable of contributing to discussion. I have no respect for her opinions because she has never argued them in any way, shape, or form. She just "says" things and that, to me, is weak.

Do I hate her? No. To hate her, I'd have to feel for her and I don't.

You see Brando, I have an opinion. Most of the people around here that love to try to knock me down off my pedstal cant deal with the fact that these are my opinions, and in no way will I back down, repent, apologize, or change my mind in the face of their overly loud wailings and rantings. I do find my self better than some, I dont feel bad about that. Woweth be that I cant "conform" to their circle jerking. Hard headed, narrow minded, and hill-billy are a few of the more choice names they have given me. Try as they all might, not a one of them can get close to my poor little pedstal with all thier leet flaming skills combined. I like to think of myself as the voice of reason, and rightness in this board full of bullies, and trix. I have a voice that tends to bring people to thier feet, often rallying against me in their one of a kind wagonisk like ways. I said pretty much everything they say I did, and the rest? Well, if you cant get a reaction out of me for being a stuck up twit, might as well call me a ***** right? Not that Im the one that sends nude pictures of myself and SO to people on this board, and wasnt me that posted Betty Paige stuff all over this board, oh oh.. and wasnt it not I who had a whole thread almost entirely centered on my cyber conversations with a man who has a gf??? Oh thats right that would be Angua, Tare, and Dalliance. Hmm... Makes you wonder doesnt it?

I have a better question. If everyone hates katie so damn much, why are there no less than three ongoing threads in which she is pretty much the center of conversation?

And for the record I don't hate anyone on these boards. Not yet anyway. There are one or two that are slowly creeping towards that rank in my mind, but katie isn't one of them.

The only reason I take pot shots at katie, is for reasons like this.

So it was you who had a whole thread about cyber with a man with a gf? I read through it twice, and though I now understand what you meant, it would be better if I could get the gist of it the first time I read it. Maybe what is really needed is a spell checker. Then I would not have any problems trying to read katie's posts.

To be honest, I think some of the current wave of dislike stems from that flashing avatar that she had for a while.

I don't dislike Katie, in fact I think she is a nice, decent person that sometimes is a bit more combative than is good for herself, and I agree that she gets a raw deal here, probably one of thge few things Thundra and myself will agree on.

On the other hand, I also happen to like most of the people identified as being at the crux of the matter. A paradox to be sure, so I mostly just stay out of it entirely.

katie is not "hated" as much as she is a "target". My opinion of katie is not the best, for she is unwilling to bend and compromise. For that hard headedness there is a desire to berate and assault her ideals. Where she willing to listen to the other side of an arguement and admit that others are allowed to have differing opinions and that her thoughts and actions are not always right in the opinions of others her reputation would not be as degraded as she has created it.

That's it?

Actually, I was going to ask the question myself when I started following this forum. It was disturbing to see some really nasty comments in, for example, the Mrs. Katie thread. I assumed you all had some history with her, which I was unaware of. Now I'm enlightened. Personally, I just couldn't be that nasty to anyone over what you all have described. Again, I'm sure I don't know the *whole* story. I'm not saying we should all sing cumbya and have group hugs. Argue, disagree, rant, etc., and people should have "reputations", but the tone of posts just seem out of proportion. So badly out of proportion that even though this forum has a funky, unique energy I don't post without a moment of hesitation because contributing, in any small way, affirms that this kind of behavior is acceptable. I post. I hesitate, but I post.

As a white-trash yankee I'd just like to say that Katie is a dumb southerner redneck. Other than that, I've got nothin'.






Ok, that was really kinda lame, let's just say, I got nothin, period.

Trying to regulate people's thoughts, feelings, actions regarding anything is rarely easy, and on this forum it's just a waste of time.

When Katie ticks me off, I verbally bop her, and forget what I type the second I hit the "post" button. Otherwise I ignore her. I don't try to have a discussion with her because
a. I don't feel that she wants to gain deeper understanding of anyone's views except her own, and
b. her views don't stretch my horizons.

Katie's a cartoon character of a white trash woman. SURELY you all realized years ago that she wasn't actually a real person?

^No, actually, not in RL, got out of it because I had lived less than the required time in the county. I have served on those University student juries, though. It sucked.
