I've been getting a kick out of your replies.
Until today when this lovely person posted this:
Anonymous has left a new comment on your post "Shoo-Fly...you've been put on notice!":
I feel it's offensive and passive agressive behavior. Have you ever said, "I know you took the time to come to see me/us, but I just don't want any company today. Maybe you could call me tomorrow and we'll set up a time to get together." It's truthful, kind, and handled in a mature way. You, and many others, may find it funny but I doubt you'd feel that way if someone hung that on their door and you dropped by to say "hi." But as they say, "opinions are like noses...everybody has one."
Um...excuse me? So many things wrong with this person! Let's count them, shall we?
- This is my blog, my home, and my sign. If you don't like what it says, you're welcome to leave.
- Sometimes people just don't respond to "nice". Sometimes you just can't get the person to leave, without being "passive aggressive".
- Guess what? I think it's funny and so does the seventeen comments before yours from people with an actual sense of humor.
- Get a life.
