Help[Opinions] Re: Wow, that was incredibly rude on so many levels. nt
in reply to a message by Mystic
Well, I'm assuming (and I could be totally wrong, so tell me if I am...) that you looked at her profile. There it says that she hates it when people write in all caps, which you did, and several of the names you mentioned are on her favorites list.
If I'm wrong, I apologize, but I'm a bit confused as to how the comment "PLEASE DON'T NAME YOUR CHILD "AUBREY", "AUDREY", "ALEXIS", OR "KIMBERLY". IF YOU WANT TO HONOR ALL OF THE FLOUZIES IN THE WORLD, WHY NOT USE A STRIPPER NAME SUCH AS "DESIREE" OR "STARLA"?
OH, BY THE WAY, WHO EVEN SAID I'M IRISH? I COULD BE FRENCH, ITALIAN, OR EVEN NATIVE AMERICAN, AND YOU WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO TELL THE DIFFERENCE BECAUSE WE ARE TALKING OVER THE INTERNET! SO JUST BECAUSE I LIKE THE NAME "IRELAND", THAT AUTOMATICALLY MEANS THAT I'M IRISH? WELL HOW'S THIS FOR SOME NICE CELTIC AND GAELIC NAMES?" was not intended to be rude, or at least was not made in kindness.
All caps is considered the equivelant of shouting, so a post in all caps is rather rude and unneccesary. Also, you could have easily gotten the Irish names from the database.

I took the names from her favorites list because when I mentioned a name from my favorites list, not asking for opinions on it mind you just nickname suggestions, she forbid me to name my child that, so I decided to take a peek at her list and see if their where any names on it that I believe I child should not have. Yes most of those Irish names where taken from the database, that was the whole point. I was trying to show that not all Celtic and Gaelic names are something that most people would want to name their children in today's society. I think most of us would much rather be called "Ireland" then "Odharnait". That was the point I was trying to make, nothing more. Also, writing in all caps was a mistake in judgement, it came from a flare of anger after reading in her profile that she hates it when people write in all letters and then she forbid us to do it. It was pety and immature and I am sorry that I did it. My post was not meant to be taken as offensive or any type of shouting what so ever. I did not mean to rude and I am sorry that you took it that way and thought little of me. I'll try to reword my posts in the future.
