Kelli in TN Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 But still, if you look at the cloud tag you can see what is important. This morning the bold words were "milk" and "politics" and now the big word is "hair". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laylamcb Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 Yeah, what's THAT about? I guess anyone can edit the tags? I mean, "conservative lies," "liberal lies"? Is that really necessary? All I can say is :chillpill:, folks. I don't get where the sniping gets fun. :001_huh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All we have to fear is a bad hair day itself. :lol: I was discussing that very thing this morning with my hairdresser. She was telling me that a lot of her clients are having to make cuts in their personal budgets but they are telling her that good hair is not a cut that they are willing to make.

Kelli in TN Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 And everyone do like I do, go around the k-8 board and high school board and tag the good threads. Yesterday I believe I singlehandedly got "preparing for college" to be one of the bold tags, for an hour or so. Then "milk" and "politics" beat it out.

Jane in NC Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 So who is going to be the first to write poetry from the tag cloud? We could have poems of the day to reflect key discussion and sniping points! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Passive-aggressive behavior will always find a way, I'm afraid. Yep. There are some people who have such miserable lives, that they spend all their time trying to make others just as miserable. I know several people in my life who just would not be happy if they did not have something to complain about or someone to put down. :glare: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swellmomma Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 Which thread was that in? it was on the one about early childhood and accrediation. I admit I have not read all the tags so I have not noticed nasty ones, but that is likely due to me simply not reading them yet. I think no matter what someone is going to find a way to put out passive agressive behaviour if they are so inclined, it could also be someone's idea of stirring the pot, creating a little drama kwim. IMO they are just tags and easily ignorable, just don't look at them. Unlike a neg rep that stared you in the face until you got enough pos to knock it out of sight, the tags are easy to ignore. That is how I managed to not see most of what was written, I don't even notice them most of the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
