I would love to say the word "troll" right now.  It  just jumped into my head, and I have no idea why. 

But, if I did speak that word, one particular BCO sister would come over here and wag her finger at me.  She would scold me-- no, reprimand me -- for being suspicious of the "integrity" (I'd say motives) of a very recent BCO registrant who has no history here and, IMHO, is up to no good. 

If I actually said "up to no good," though, I'd get another finger-wagging.  So I won't.

Someone else can say it.

[P.S.:  It's pretty odd when someone here misspells the word "breast".  And then does it twice...  when all he/she has to do is look a few inches higher, to the top of the screen, and copy the word from the header.  But, I would never criticize someone else's spelling, because my laptop keyboard is dropping the letter "t" all the time.  Maybe that person's keyboard is dropping the letter "a".  Or maybe not.]

I am with Otter on this one, and I herewith state everything she is thinking and not posting.

Hippycrusher, your statement:  "Breast cancer is THE most treatable cancer in the world, so have fun with your excuse to wear pink and buy pink cookies and some other bull" is

No. 1--ignorant--do you know nearly 50,000 men and women die of breast cancer every year?

No. 2--offensive--we ladies here on this board are mourning the loss of so many of our sisters in the last few months/years.  We don't need to hear "As for me, I dont give a crap about any cancer of any form because we all have to die someday, why not from cancer." 

Unless and until you are diagnosed with cancer, please go away. 

If, God forbid, you are diagnosed with breast cancer, please come back and you will be welcomed and supported by all of the folks here through your treatment.

Unless and until then, what the heck are you doing here on these boards? 

Please leave us--I cannot think of anything positive happening in our community because of your ignorant posts.

Post reported. All of which just goes to show there are worse things than breast cancer -- like a life given over to this sort of senseless unkindness and insensitivity.

Hi, Elaine, Otter, Jane and Fightinhrd!Smile Hugs to you all. Onward!
