I think you have a valid point. Not sure why some can't allow you to express it, without the mocking.

It appears that a few folks here completely have their little circuits blown if the least bit of snark or sarcasm or "ooomph" is expressed along with an opinion.

I have to admit, I've been participating in chat and debate forums for 20 years, but I've never seen such a weak sister retort as "you must be having a bad day/life/Monday" when someone states an opinion that's not the same as theirs.

The OP was fine. The "scary and stupid" bit? meh... If that's the worst thing someone says in an online forum, your life must be very charmed and simple if that causes that big an uproar.

You have been participating in chat/debate forums for 20 years, and you've never seen such a weak sister retort, as what you mentioned??Really??

Those must have been some extremely benign forums.

If you want to intelligently post an opinion on any forum and actually have people consider it and enter into a conversation with you, suggesting they resemble cult followers and are scary and stupid; how do think that's going to work for you?

Do you think people are going to consider you sharp, well informed, interesting, and someone they want to talk to?

Or, do think they're going to consider the level of your post and respond in kind?

I think we all know the answer.

The OP didn't want to post an opinion, she wanted to insult people and she got, in large part, the kind of responses you get, when that's your objective!

Happy Housewife, I find the comment about your niece's septic system interesting. We have a grinder pit for all of our wastewater (effluent goes to a "pit", and once it reaches a certain level gets emulsified and ejected to the sewer main, which is uphill of our property). I have to be really careful to not let grease or oils go down the drain, because it has the potential to clog the ejector pump (not to mention the walls of the pit, which is plastic). If I had considered Wen I might have to rethink it.

Cogito ergo sum

The before & afters are a joke. Why not compare apples to apples? Compare side by side photos of hair that has been washed and styled by a pro. One using Wen and one using another product. Then you maybe can form some type of opinion.

That is a really good idea. Maybe they will take you up on that. I would love to see the difference between plain old shampoo as opposed to Wen. The final product after it's been styled and finished by a pro.

How bout it Chaz!
