I tried that. I was still insulted and called names regardless as well.Scruddy, I’m thinking if you changed your approach , it would go a long way in getting some of your points across.
I am a mirror for the toxicity thrown at me too. The lefties on this forum are just as corrosive as I am. Arguably worse, even.He has views that other people have, he just expresses them in a more inhumane and toxic manner, throwing in ad hominem attacks as well( seems like all of political threads devolve to that)
First off, read what you just wrote and then tell me you can't appreciate the irony of you telling someone else they bring no value to this forum. Your contributions are literally telling people they "eat shit". Pot meets kettle moment tbh..Like I said - a regurgitating shit eater.
He brings zero value to this online community.
ThisHe has no points. He’s a shit eater who just regurgitates the shit he eats. Nothing more, nothing less.
sameI have been reading it like "gimmer-ed" this whole time. This is going to be an adjustment.
No idea what went on in the threads, butNo idea what went on in the threads, but you shouldn't bring your kid up in context of a political topic on a message board and then not expect others to do the same in argument against your position.
You brought them into the fray.
Granted, it's different if they're taking personal shots at you or your kid.
This, but you shouldn't use the ignore feature. Only cowards do that.As someone who’s been called some REALLY bad names and totally trashed on this board you just learn to use a shovel to give it right back. And the put the person on ignore.
"Unprompted"I got a timeout for letting him know I am subjected to unprompted personal attacks daily.
Everyone knows scruddy is untouchable. He is a minion of the mods.Wow what a day! So, just to share a bit about myself, something that I haven't mentioned to the board, So, several months ago, I made an offer to my plant manager to give up my Dayshift Shift lead job and move to the 3-11 shift as a Senior Quality Lab Tech. The issues we were having was we were bleeding scrap dollars because of a serious lack of experience on that shift and had no way to offer support. The change was finally made the first of this month. So with this change, my normal work hours will be 3PM to 11PM. However, there was a need for a bit of training, so I'm working a split shift, going in at noon and working until I feel comfortable that I'm not needed.
So imagine my surprise to come home and find that I'm the subject of a 5 page attack in a locked thread. WTF @kwik44 ? Locked but not deleted? I can't respond? @Scruddy is allowed to call me Retarded and still is a poster? @Phenomenally Frantastic is allowed to totally misrepresent my journey as the parent of a Trans child? I can assure you neither would stand face to face with me and say that.
So, for those who stood up and defended me, and for those who called the trash out, thank you! Some of you even have a different position than I do, and still called the trash out. That says a lot about you!
For those of you that have never heard of our journey and the trials of being a parent, I've been as open as I could be, we have always taken a slow and informed approach to every treatment. My child, assigned Female at birth went through some serious struggles at the onset of puberty, Went through several years of therapy, many visits with medical professionals treated the anxiety, depression, and insomnia for years before even approaching the Gender Dysphoria. I've had conversations with them that I never thought I would have with a child. But contrary to what the trash would have you believe, my child is 19, a Freshman in College, made the Presidents list for their first semester, and also is a fully intact biological female, tits and all. They are on hormones which has helped the tremendously. As a surprise baby, they have been the most challenging, most rewarding pain in my ass I could have imagined. If I had the power to change them, I would not change one thing.
Now as some of you remember, I have 6 kids n total, My oldest is going through a divorce right now, it been a challenge. We are in contact multiple time a day most days. He hurts, but we'll work through this as a family. My Number 3 son just got a nice promotion and raise, as to be expected, his car kinda crapped out at 225,000 miles, he'll come up with car, but the timing could be better. My number 4 son, like my youngest deals with depression. Hs is seasonal, and the winters are brutal for him. He also owns a moving company in Omaha and the housing market has tanked and the business is pretty bad right now. He has lad the crew off and is running freight to keep the business afloat. The problem he has had is with the emissions on his truck. For him, it can seem like the universe is against him and the things that should be simple become impossible. Again, we are in contact daily, but it really sucks to be 4 hours away from a child who need you.
So if any of you would like to take a shot at me as a parent, at any of my 5 straight, cisgender kids, or my non-binary child, please try to do it when I could respond in the morning, or try not to be such an ass that I can respond late at night.
And just to piss off the rest of you who haven't figured out that the Red in Gimmered is for the Huskers and to provide you with a real reason to hate me.
GBR!!!!!
Yes, the mods support and celebrate me. That's exactly it.. it is the only explanation.Everyone knows scruddy is untouchable. He is a minion of the mods.
WeirdoI tried that. I was still insulted and called names regardless as well.

Second, this community was in net negative territoy before I stumbled along and corrected things. You're welcome, by the way..
I sincerely felt this way for over 20 years on the Rivals network and never once put a single poster on ignore on any forum. ...then a certain group of handles started posting on HROT and here we are.This, but you shouldn't use the ignore feature. Only cowards do that.
Always funny to see the people who shit in the punch bowl cry when others choose not to drink their feces.I sincerely felt this way for over 20 years on the Rivals network and never once put a single poster on ignore on any forum. ...then a certain group of handles started posting on HROT and here we are.
I'm glad to see I made the cutI sincerely felt this way for over 20 years on the Rivals network and never once put a single poster on ignore on any forum. ...then a certain group of handles started posting on HROT and here we are.
Dear idiot: He had posted about his daughter a few different times in the past.No idea what went on in the threads, but
Haha. You didn't read the thread(s) but needed to make a comment that wasn't even close to being based on what happened. You are the idiot.Dear idiot: He had posted about his daughter a few different times in the past.
What happened is I came home from work and found I was called out by a now likely former poster in a locked 5 page attack thread because I choose to follow Medical professionals instead of following hunches from you and guys like you. My only surprise was you add not entered the fray.No idea what went on in the threads, but you shouldn't bring your kid up in context of a political topic on a message board and then not expect others to do the same in argument against your position.
You brought them into the fray.
Granted, it's different if they're taking personal shots at you or your kid.
I have also posted about my Sons and my non-binary child.Dear idiot: He had posted about his daughter a few different times in the past.
Favorite Husker fan by a mile.
I just don’t get the calling out of posters like that. Continued luck for you and your family.Wow what a day!

Ok EeyoreWhats so hard to understand? You cant believe anything anyone here says.
OP could be a 22 year old woman playing a character.
Doubling down, nice. I don’t care about your definitions of normal or abnormal.Families with trans kids are not normal. That's just a fact.
More hate speech. And another poster put on ignore.Families with trans kids are not normal. That's just a fact.
Come to the Wordle thread. It’s like the DMZ. We all get along in there.Good post, OP. You sound like a great dad.
Also agree with the posters that have mentioned how this place is going downhill. And it's wild because it's gotten even worse AFTER the mods decided to make a post about the board. It's gotten worse, and the handful of posters that contribute nothing except bullshit are still around.
Is there any wonder why LGBTQ kids and their families often struggle? Imagine feeling like a third of the population despises you and would rather you don’t exist.More hate speech. And another poster put on ignore.
Yeah, but the 'far left' posters are just as bad!!!11!!!Is there any wonder why LGBTQ kids and their families often struggle? Imagine feeling like a third of the population despises you and would rather you don’t exist.
Every damn thread these assholes prove this.
Especially when it is something that has zero impact on their own life. They’re literally going out of their way to create hate and to be a complete asshole.Is there any wonder why LGBTQ kids and their families often struggle? Imagine feeling like a third of the population despises you and would rather you don’t exist.
Every damn thread these assholes prove this.
Did anyone take him seriously when he posted this? LOL - it's classic.Sorry for being a jerk to you gimmered.
Only comment I will make in this thread.
Everything about me is Classic (with a capital C)Did anyone take him seriously when he posted this? LOL - it's classic.
Is normal a good thing or a bad thing?Families with trans kids are not normal. That's just a fact.
There are no normal families, there are just those that appear normal from the outside.Is normal a good thing or a bad thing?
nor·mal ˈnȯr-məl. 1. a. : conforming to a type, standard, or regular pattern : characterized by that which is considered usual, typical, or routine.
I come from a family with a bipolar, schizophrenic father. I have a daughter with Tourette's and a son with ADHD, Dysgraphia and Tourette's. I have diagnosed Generalized Anxiety Disorder as well as ADD. My family isn't "normal". Is that good or bad or just abnormal?
This X 1000000000000000000000000000000There are no normal families, there are just those that appear normal from the outside.
I like my grand niece's husband. Him and my grand niece are both graduates of the Nebraska law school. Not sure why they didn't go to Creighton Law School, perhaps it was less expensive. Of course they might get some improper treatment here as they are immigration lawyers.So counting me you like one Husker! I actually really enjoy the interaction, I do try to keep the Husker talk on the Football board and try to keep that fun.
