Apparently Sharla has had ENOUGH with all the negative
GWOP characterizations and has taken to creating a "Things We Are Called that We are Not" thread.
GWOPPERS are invited to add to list.
In Item #5, Sharla writes that SHE is definitely not a child advocate and has never claimed to be one. Yeah. whatever. I noticed that it's gone now but for the first umpteen years of the
blog's history, she hosted a a link to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children. And the stupid What We Want section still says "We want child labor laws to recognize that children in reality shows deserve the same protection that children in scripted shows have."
Yeah, Sharla, we believe you. Just like we believed your "
PennMommy is real." And just like we believe you had nothing to do with the Pig blog. I know you don't like hearing this, Sharla, but you and your pals ( Julie, Jodi and Serena (
nhrn)) have a wee credibility issue.
I also especially loved Item #6. The
GWOPPERS, or at least some of them apparently, are NOT bad mothers. Sharla writes, "Some of the us don't even have children. " So there. Take that, you
sheeple!
Would it have been possible for Sharla to create a more stupid thread? Since when are you not what you are just because you say you're not? Has Annie Louise's poignant art history lecture on pointillism taught Sharla nothing? I thought we're all supposed to step back and connect the dots.
The trouble with threads titled "Things we are called that we are not" and then inviting people to build the list is the wonderful opportunity for omission. For example, if no one pipes up and says "Hey, we're not mortally stupid", I can only conclude that
GWOPPERS must be mortally stupid.
So far, the list of what they are but are not isn't very long. But once they move past the word "
shribbled" and officially decide
whether they are or are not
shribbled, I'm sure the posts will pick up.
Who will be the brave first
GWOPPER to step forward to say "We're NOT judgmental."?
Because of all the things they are or aren't, that would be the only trait that matters.
