sheryl Posted May 21, 2011 Share Posted May 21, 2011 I just don't have the time to read all of the pages. While Hollywood can be a little interesting :confused: I agree with one of the posters that if this "famous" person exists on this board that this person is a regular Mom just like one of us. So, 'fess up....anyone else out there who didn't respond? Or, am I the only one. :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Audrey Posted May 21, 2011 Share Posted May 21, 2011 (edited) I posted, but not about who it might or might not be. Rather because someone had just beaten her personal pet issue drum quite loudly again, and I'm kind of sick of it. :chillpill: already. :001_rolleyes: I was tempted to post about poutine, but I decided to go eat some instead. It was much more satisfying. ETA: I just caved and posted about poutine anyway. Edited May 21, 2011 by Audrey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

texasmama Posted May 21, 2011 Share Posted May 21, 2011 I read most of it, learned a new word (poutine) and had nothing to add so I skipped responding.

Dawn in OH Posted May 21, 2011 Share Posted May 21, 2011 I have a limited attention span if I'm not thoroughly fascinated by the topic...that said, I read the first 2 pages and lost interest.

Desert Strawberry Posted May 21, 2011 Share Posted May 21, 2011 I grew up in Hollywood. I don't understand celebrity stalking. Famous people are just people. I'm sure that whomever it is is not loving that thread and having her cover blown. it must be a nice escape to come online and get ot be just another, normal mom for a while, without anyone digging for personal details.

Her cover was not blown! :glare: Not one person outed anyone in any way at all. Just a bunch of silly speculation about who might be a poutine-eating famous homeschool mom in Toronto and a member of the WTM boards. And, since not one person knows who it is other than the OP (who didn't even witness the scene firsthand) it is totally impossible that anyone went digging for personal details.

I'm sure that whomever it is is not loving that thread and having her cover blown. it must be a nice escape to come online and get ot be just another, normal mom for a while, without anyone digging for personal details. But her cover isn't blown. The OP might know who the famous person is, but no one knows her posting name. If no one had picked up on her celebrity status before, then certainly no one is going to figure it out now, unless she chooses to reveal herself. If I were her, I wouldn't reveal it. Look at all the butt-kissing that people did to Ree -- and she isn't even a celebrity -- just a blogger. How in the world can you know who is being genuine with you and who isn't when so many are bending over to smarm you? If I were her, I would much rather keep anonymous and post my own thoughts and not have to wonder if people's response to me is because of me or because of my celebrity.

teamturner Posted May 21, 2011 Share Posted May 21, 2011 It was a pretty young thread when I stumbled upon it, but it had already digressed into talk about a gross dish that I would not ever touch with a ten foot pole.

A lot of people, me included, posted that we think celebrities having anonymity here is a very good thing for them and us. Most of the talk is about poutine with a few folks trying to distract from that with some chili references and much chatter about kilts.

Crissy Posted May 22, 2011 Share Posted May 22, 2011 I only read a page or two before I moved on without posting. Poutine confuses me, and I can't say I'm all that impressed with fame.

Farrar Posted May 22, 2011 Share Posted May 22, 2011 I liked that people had fun guessing (and talking about a million other things), but clearly weren't desperate to break the celeb's cover. It clearly was just in fun, and as Audrey pointed out, the person's cover wasn't blown at all. I thought it all looked a bit like if classical homeschool moms wrote an issue of People magazine. Of course, if you're not the sort for People magazine, then you wouldn't enjoy it. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
