Comments on: Green, mean http://www.sundrymourning.com/2008/08/19/green-mean/ Wed, 08 Feb 2012 15:53:20 -0700 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.4 hourly 1 By: Michelle http://www.sundrymourning.com/2008/08/19/green-mean/comment-page-3/#comment-263400 Michelle Tue, 28 Oct 2008 02:38:24 +0000 http://www.sundrymourning.com/2008/08/19/green-mean/#comment-263400 So, I was just pointed in your direction today because of today's post. First of all, I'm with ya on all of this. Apparently those of us who use fabric softener, don't breastfeed and use disposable diapers are not fit to be parents. I'm not sure how all that correlates, but I'm pretty sure that is what these people think. I'd like these people to go to the store with a 3 year old, a 21 month old and a 7 month old and not have a tantrum, or worry about what detergent to buy. Absolute BS if you ask me and I'm glad I'm not surrounded by pompous and closed minded asses like your former reader. Good for you for standing up for yourself and not putting up with that crap.

I even more hate how certain people decide that they hate someone for doing something they wouldn't... it's rediculous. I breastfeed because my sister and cousins did, seemed like the way to go. I cloth diaper because I think it's cute... but once in a while my husband or MIL buy sposies and I'll use them all before even considering my cloth diapers (because I use prefolds, snappis, and covers... it just takes so long with a wiggly baby). I wear my baby, very rarely cuz he's way too heavy now, and he hates to be held anyways. My baby sleeps in a crib in our room, but we sleep in the living room, been this way for a month, he's getting his own room this weekend so we can have our bed back! He sleeps thru the night now without our tossing, coughing, getting up to pee noise. I still use plastic everything - bottles/sippy cups/grocerie bags/toys... I use dryer sheets. I have a clothes line, but I prefer to just toss everything into the dryer, it's faster. I never shut my computer off. We live pretty close to the stores we shop at regularly, but we choose to drive there more often than not. I buy baby food from walmart or loblaws, I'm too lazy to make it myself. I don't care what's in the food I eat, as long as it tastes good. and mmmmmmm chicken wings!

It’s all “YOU GO GIRL! SCREW THE EARTH! Those lame eco-friendly people are so fucking lame and judgmental!” And by making fun of us- um, aren’t you being judgmental too? Like one charming commenter said: “The Green Trolls (hee! Get it?) are more obnoxious on the internet than the Militant Nursing Advocates. And that says a lot.” [...]

I cordially invite you to NYC to share a transfat-laden cheeseburger and a few (full calorie) beers at a favorite sidewalk cafe with me while my children go ignored in a nearby high chair, wearing diposable diapers and breathing in the fumes from the M5 bus.

Can I make you a steak or something? 'Cause I'm one of those awesome vegetarians who doesn't give other people shit (uh hello, Josh worships meat) so I don't feel at all offended at your outrage. Unsolicited life coaches suck ass. Linda, you’re awesome when you’re pissed.

And no it's not just because we don't have kids, we totally recycle too - except when I pull an old can of beans out of the back of the fridge - that goes straight into the once a week garbage can. Geez, what do people want from us? I’m good because even though garbage pick up is twice a week we only put out the can once a week.
