A Good Laugh


Hey, all my blogger adoptive Moms! Cheers from Vegas!

I just had to share this comment I got from my last post. It literally cracked me up!!! I laughed out loud at the ignorance of "Anonymous". What do you think?

and I quote:

Anonymous said...

"I find it interesting that you sit here and blog about how you can't wait to see your son, and you wish you were leaving earlier. You COULD go earlier, but you choose not to. I honestly think its very selfish of you to leave your son in an orphanage, while you sit here all happy in your luxury...well...compared to what he has anyways."


Anonymous - you COULD say who you are, but you choose not to. (Lame) You're comment is downright laughable. Since you have so much time to comment your unwanted opinions on my blog, why don't you spend a little more time researching. We aren't allowed to get our son until our confirmed travel dates, because he cannot be issued a Visa to leave the country until that time (hence, the travel dates). And I fail to see the selfishness in traveling halfway around the world to take my son from an orphanage in three weeks time. Clearly you have not spent an iota of your own time adopting or pursuing it - or you would know that you are confined to the parameters of the process. Duh.

Anyway, I must tell you that you gave me a great laugh. Oh! And thanks for sending me your IP address!

Ass.

Wow, that is so ignorant, it's unbelievable! Why would they think you'd be voluntarily putting off getting your baby??? Sounds like some crack who's surfing the web, posting nastygrams on random people's sites for spite.

There is a blog that I follow and whenever someone does something that ticks her off, she calls them a name that I think fits this perfectly - Asshats. But you know if you ever find out who it is, you have to let me know.

Love you!

i am very proud to know you, and the way you reacted to that ignorant comment. I was so mad that I couldn't even think straight.
Big pat on the back to you.
Love, Julie

Hey, if that's the way adoption works why don't you just head on over to Ethiopia, pick out the cutest baby you could find, pay the people and fly home? Oh, you mean there are rules and regulations in a process that takes years and the patience to deal with TWO government bureaucracies? You have to follow the LAW. You can’t just play the rich American and swoop in sprit away a child. Dumb@ss!

Some people have WAY too much time on their hands. Good for you Christy on taking the high road here...I'm not sure I could have been as nice about it!

What an ASS to think you could get your son earlier but you just choose not to!!! It is beyond belief that someone would think you had a choice and would wait!

That's an insult to all of us trying to struggle through this wait only to imagine that someone would think we have an option to go sooner! Man, that ticks me off!!

Oh! I get it. Selfishness must be what is keeping all the families adopting from China from hopping planes this minute too. Glad I figured that out, and here I thought it was just regulations and red tape - whatev! Viva Las Vegas! Tell my friend Elvis I said hi!!!! You crack me up lady!
luv,
suz

HA!! That was a good laugh! Crazy people are funny!

Elise said...

I don't get some people....have fun in Las Vegas girl, soon you will be busy, busy, busy!

Lili said...

they are clueless!! You HAVE to tell us if you figure out who it was!

-From another SELFISH Mom who won't go get her daughter in China. I would rather wait 3 years.!

I just wanted to apologize for my recent comment. It was uncalled for, and as you put it, I was being an ass...or an asshat as someone else put it. I'm sorry, and I congratulate you, sincerely, on getting your son. Again, I'm sorry.

Lili said...

WOWW!! you got an apology...but who are they? do they know you or are they just a random person on the internet that likes to stalk Adoption blogs???? A mystery.
