This post was in the Missy Elliot Thread in Gen Disc. SORRY IT's SO LONG !!

I NEED to clear the air about this post - While the person said it in the nicest way - It told me something I didn't know.

I didn't know I was being considered controversial here on yorkietalk and want to CLEAR THE AIR because that really bothers me ...so I copied my answer and put it here for people to read below but wanted to address this first.

Some of the threads I've been in DO get controversial. In the future there are just certain things I'm going to stay away from - I will always be against Mills and Pet Stores selling live animals but there really have been some threads recently that I just should have NOT posted in and will try not to anymore - they go nowhere and only continue to create drama. That is SO NOT ME. I would much rather be lauging or reading good information than defending certain things over and over.

The last thing I EVER want to be is labled as 'controversial'. I'm not - far from it - I get along with EVERYONE in my life and on yorkie sites....in the future will be watching how I post as I would rather be considered as an asset to a board.....not a person who likes drama. I don't like it and I sure don't want to have a rep as someone who is involved in it. So for those who have that opinion - I hope you can see things a bit differently after this thread. I know there are certain people who already made their minds up - but I hope those people have open minds.

And I, for one, don't find you controversial AT ALL! Well rounded, kind-hearted and way FUNNY!!!


My original Response
I do get a bit passionate about certain things - and try to center the passion on 'controversaries' that I feel very strongly about which always will be Pet Stores and Puppy Mills - I think there are those of us who do speak out but it doesn't mean we like debating - I personally do NOT....the only debates I really get into usually involve the same subjects.

I'd perfer to be helping people and laughing then be involved in drama and I spend ALOT of time offsite doing pictures for members who need help etc...I feel bad if people think I like controversary and maybe will need to stay away from certain posts in the future.

If you knew me in person - I'm VERY VERY easy going. too easy going sometimes - My husband says I joke around TOO much but I LOVE making people laugh. If I can make someone smile everyday - then I'm happy.
