What’s your point? He took a screen shot right after he posted, so what? His reply was a considerable time after her posting (Thursday at 10:44pm). According to my facebook news feed, any posts within the last 24 hours say something like “19 hours ago.” Posts more than 24 hours ago say “Tuesday” or “Wednesday.” So he replied to his ex’s status more than a day after it was posted. How does that make him needy?
needy is probably the wrong word more egotistical and arrogant to post something that he’s clearly written himself in a manner that says “god look how hilarious and outspoken i am that i need to show how hilarious i am to the world”
Maybe he just thought it was a pretty good rant. Maybe he thought, “Hey, I just wrote that, and it’s pretty OK! It doesn’t have many obvious spelling errors, it states my point in a sardonic manner, and it kinda made me chuckle.” Then YOU thought that, because he took some pride in his work, he was being egotistical and arrogant.
I’d say you’re the one with the personality problem. It’s OK to take pride in your work, even if your work is mediocre.
you do realize it doesn’t say 2 seconds later or after the original post, right? It says 2 seconds ago, so basically after he wrote it and clicked submit, the page refreshes and the comment is two seconds old after he wrote it. It will stay that way until the page is refreshed again, so all he did was submit the reply then take a screenshot if it.
It doesn’t matter how long it takes to make a screenshot. He could have taken the shot 3 days after posting the message just as long as he never left or refreshed that page.
It doesn’t auto refresh the page periodically so if he never refreshed the page after making the post then it would indeed have a really low “Time posted” thing on it.
It’s not that women are evil. It’s that women are cruel, self centered, soulless, tasteless, narcissistic, soul sucking, gold digging, but nevertheless really fun in bed the crazier they… ok, yes women are evil.
Cool story, bro. Maybe girls should do something about it. Your post wasn’t necessary. Jim was either joking (so a serious answer was unnecessary) or he was trolling (which means he wants a long, thought-out post to waste your time). Sorry.
I actually write out long posts by default, so you’ll learn by reading my posts on this website.
I’ve read on here a number of times about how horrible women are, and ones like me aren’t given the time of day. So, joke or not, men like this have no right to whine about it.
Actually, you can…
If you have been supporting a child it is very much likely that a court will require you to keep paying, even if a test confirms you aren’t the biological father.
Isn’t misandry grand?
Someone’s overly protective. Either someone’s trolling, full of theirself, or a feminist extremist / moron who thinks women deserve special treatment. Either way, pretty pathetic.
I think what she was TRYING to say, but unfortunatly she left out logic. People are people, regardless of gender. People are varied. Guys AND Gals can be “cruel, self centered, soulless, tasteless, narcissistic, soul sucking, gold digging, morons” to quote that guy up there. Plus I added moron.
Soooo yeah, both of you, grow up! [Ironic coming from me, I know~]

Why do SO many people keep getting married? I get it if you are both truly religious and there is significance of the ceremony in relation to your god. Besides that what is the appeal other than legal conveniences (which there are ways to circumvent)? It is possible to truly love someone and show them you are committed without registering your relationship with the government. Oh, and crippling yourselves financially and enduring weeks of unnecessary stress for a 1 day, very standard, very predictable event…but that’s a whole different can of worms.
There are more reasons than can be stated why people get married. No one has to cripple themselves financially to get married. No one has to stress out over it. It’s people who treat it as more than just a public display of their dedication to one another that suffer during their wedding day because they are morons.
The question should be why wouldn’t they get married? As you said, there are great legal conveniences to be had.
Because if (when?) you ever want to break up it becomes a huge, drawn out legal nightmare when it should be a time to focus on healing emotionally and moving on. My parents divorced years ago and they’re still cutting through red tape and constantly being forced to reopen old wounds (and to a degree so are those around them). I wonder out of the 50% of marriages that actually last what % of that group are unhappy but stay together and go through the motions because they don’t want to go through a divorce? It’s become very apparent that happily staying in one relationship from one’s 20′s to death is the exception and not the rule in our society. Yet people are just climbing over themselves to follow the same failed life-arc as everyone else before them. So I ask again, why do SO many people get married?
For the sake of indulging your curiosity, I read a study (which means that what I’m about to say came from the mouth of God) that said that about 50% of divorced men are happier after divorce, as opposed to 85% of divorced women.
I’m not sure what conclusion there is to be drawn from that, but there is one somewhere.
When people say “going in”, it is a common idiomatic expression in American English anyway, meaning “returning to work”. She is obviously returning to work on Tuesday after a long weekend. In fact, when I read it, I assumed that she only has weekend visitation, which makes her demands for child support kind of strange….
Remember this boys: The same woman who tortures this guy every day is the same woman who looked him in the eyes every day and convinced him she was nurturing, compassionate and loved him with all her heart
Wow, you had a guy string you along while you had guys in between? It’s no surprise he left you. Probably after he found out about all the other guys you had while he was so-called “stringing you along”.
I mean, between the time I had been ditched by the one guy I wasted five years of my life on and this past relationship.
Actually, the guy who wasted five years of my life? We weren’t even an item for any of it except for six months. We agreed to have a friends with benefits thing and he lead me on that he was interested.
Thank you for assuming. I don’t put on rose-tinted glasses for the stereotypical “cute guy”, thank you very much.
Was I attracted to each of them for different reasons? Yes. Would you put rose-tinted glasses on for someone you weren’t attracted to?
And why don’t you apply that same logic to the sissy-boys whining above about how mean and horrible all women are? Can’t the same exact thing be said for them?
But, whatever makes you feel better about treating women like complete garbage.
I wouldn’t bother. You’re in the failblog comments here.
Do you know this saying: “Don’t argue with idiots; they drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.”
Wait a minute…
Isn’t Sanguine the Daedric Prince of Debauchery?
She used to be safe in her perceived correctness, until she took some irony in the ego.
I understood why you were upset earlier, but the post Xomebum made wasn’t really anti-girl, at least from what I could tell. What he was saying was actually pretty gender-neutral. Being strung along can happen to anyone.
Dude, as a fellow woman, LET THIS GO! Why are you dredging all this up on failblog? I get your men have treated you badly. That sucks. But why are you making this about you?
The post is one guy talking to his ex about how bad she has treated him. Don’t make this a battle of which sex is worse. It’s totally irrelevant and will never be solved. But I’m scrolling through and reading all of your angry posts, and really – please. You need to let this go. Or get therapy. But failblog is not the place for it.
This is why I feel I won’t be getting married or finding love anytime soon. The vast majority of women my age bore me and to the older women I’m just a little boy.
, this is a gag website. It is simply meant to humor people. You clearly seem upset but nothing will come of replying to childish boys and girls. Nothing on this page is fact. There is no need to prove which gender is “the meaner gender.”
As for the gender discrimination. Nothing will come even if you do prove your point on the internet. The internet is full of trolls (boys AND girls) who don’t care what you say and will put what they want.
Well it seems to reflect a lot worse on Ashleigh than on Adam… What would Ashleigh need evidence for anyway? Evidence that she gave her kids a box of rocks on Christmas? Evidence that she’s a gold-digger? She’s got everything to lose and nothing to gain by preserving evidence of this. Also, what are the odds that she loaded this page precisely 2 seconds after the comment was posted?
What amazes me is that they are still sufficiently FB friends to be able to see each other.
Most psychos I know who live their lives on FB make a big thing about de-friending people they don’t like, and creating a right royal fuss when others de-friend them in their turn. Most odd.
Back in the days before facebook, you didn’t have to interact with your exes anywhere near as often. This is one of the worst things about facebook imho. Do you really need all the acquaintances you dislike, exes, exes’ new SO, SO’s previous exes, demons from your past, douchey coworkers, etc all so close by?
This is why you don’t marry a woman who is good in bed. Any woman who f**ks you hard when you’re together will f**k you ten times harder when you break up.
In a bad way.
Besides, a woman who has a lot of practice will cheat on you 100% of the time.
People are people. Man or woman, We make mistakes. His mistake was to find a girl like her. Marriage should really only be a 1 time thing. I’m 20 years old and haven’t been in a real relationship once. I’m waiting for the day when I meet a girl who shares similarities with me. Someone like proverbs 31. I realize that I’m a major sinner and kind of a jerk sometimes, but will always find a way to work my problems out with anyone. I have another 10 years to not worry about getting married. If you find the one and promise to be truthful even after messing up, you and them can work it out and not worry about getting divorced. That’s how marriage was like in the old days. My parents are real freakin’ proof! *true story* ^cheers^
Aww, you mad, bro?
awkward bro.
I’d click like on his comment.
ditto.
Damn, she just got put in her place.
Good story but….
Posted 2secs ago?!? A bit… needy, eh?
i guess, she (ex) would delete the post so made a screenshot as soon as possible…
What’s your point? He took a screen shot right after he posted, so what? His reply was a considerable time after her posting (Thursday at 10:44pm).

I’d say you’re the one with the personality problem. It’s OK to take pride in your work, even if your work is mediocre.
Smackdown.
seems a bit fake right, posted 2 seconds ago but still managaed to get a screenshot/
Um, there is no year or month on this. Just Thursday at 10:44pm. It could be a week old or a couple of years old.
you do realize it doesn’t say 2 seconds later or after the original post, right? It says 2 seconds ago, so basically after he wrote it and clicked submit, the page refreshes and the comment is two seconds old after he wrote it. It will stay that way until the page is refreshed again, so all he did was submit the reply then take a screenshot if it.
Leave here, and take your LOGIC with you.
I will gladly confirm that this is true. It will stay at 2 seconds for as long as you like, as long as you do not refresh the page.
How long do YOU think it takes to take a screenshot? I’m pretty sure I can do it in under 1 sec.
It doesn’t matter how long it takes to make a screenshot. He could have taken the shot 3 days after posting the message just as long as he never left or refreshed that page.
It doesn’t auto refresh the page periodically so if he never refreshed the page after making the post then it would indeed have a really low “Time posted” thing on it.
I wonder what an alot of fun things would look like.
I wonder what “alot” is

I got one at Big Lots! it was purple and three feet high.
i wonder why some women are so evil. It gives the rest of us a bad name, sigh.
spite
It’s not that women are evil. It’s that women are cruel, self centered, soulless, tasteless, narcissistic, soul sucking, gold digging, but nevertheless really fun in bed the crazier they… ok, yes women are evil.
Thank you Jim, that made my day.
Nailed it
Maybe he should not have
Cool story, bro. Maybe girls should do something about it. Your post wasn’t necessary. Jim was either joking (so a serious answer was unnecessary) or he was trolling (which means he wants a long, thought-out post to waste your time). Sorry.
ah but this way there is SO MUCH MORE DRAMA! And we all know which of the sexes craves drama…
Indeedy.
Both of them
This is actually the closest I’ve ever been to an actual argument in years. Even on the internet.
As far as the internet is concerned (esp failblog comments), I’d say the VAST majority of drama is performed by men/boys.
I actually write out long posts by default, so you’ll learn by reading my posts on this website.
I’ve read on here a number of times about how horrible women are, and ones like me aren’t given the time of day. So, joke or not, men like this have no right to whine about it.
Where I am, it is currently 8:07 PM…
There, time of day.
I’m sorry.
You can’t get tapped for child support for a kid who isn’t yours. Keep that in mind.
Actually, you can…
If you have been supporting a child it is very much likely that a court will require you to keep paying, even if a test confirms you aren’t the biological father.
Isn’t misandry grand?
Blasphemy!
Not evil, just blindly selfish and ignorant to others feelings.
Sorry about all that, but you do realize you are arguing on Failblog, right?
this.
I second that this
All I can say is that the abuse would not have happend if you would have stayed in the kitchen.
Are we getting a bit overly defensive here? Did someone ‘nail’ it?
Holy Jesus. Hypocrisy much?
you are right!
I am so happy to be a straight woman: It means I don’t have to date another woman
Someone’s overly protective. Either someone’s trolling, full of theirself, or a feminist extremist / moron who thinks women deserve special treatment. Either way, pretty pathetic.

Soooo yeah, both of you, grow up! [Ironic coming from me, I know~]
Or, after reading more comments, I should say all of you!
umm…. umadbro?

Someone, somewhere is fapping to this story.
I did before you even posted this.
On THE laptop? WHICH laptop?! Where is this magical laptop of moneygivings?!
In this case:Laptop=Lapdance
Now I ain’t sayin’ you a gold digger, you got needs . . .
And that friends is why women are a horrible idea.
If I said the same thing about men, I’d have a lynchmob after me.
That being said, men are douchebags. But I only talk to men who have money. LOTS AND LOTS OF MONEY.
Goddamn, I was on the side of the male Facebooker, and you idiots managed to make me defend my own gender. Again.
So you got mad at a troll in the comments?
Actually, I’m not even sure you aren’t a troll.
yup, totally your fault, you are too shallow. that leads you to those problems.
Comment proves juanky is correct!
If we are idiots, then how did we trick you? I must say, I bet that oven cleaner clenses your brain cells as well as the oven.
^This
Oh noes, poor guy! Let the misogyny continue…

Because our society convinces them that they will be incomplete, unhappy and a failure at life if they don’t. It’s complete bullsh*t
Sounds like they got married while he was still in the military. Which if thats the case his pay would have doubled.
You obviously have no clue about military pay.
There are more reasons than can be stated why people get married. No one has to cripple themselves financially to get married. No one has to stress out over it.

“before I go in Tuesday.”…..”I missed them so much.”
Where is she going? Where has she been?
Poll: Jail, Rehab, or ……
Does anyone have “Sex reorientation surgery” in the pool, yet?
she was going into the hospital to have a baby
When people say “going in”, it is a common idiomatic expression in American English anyway, meaning “returning to work”. She is obviously returning to work on Tuesday after a long weekend. In fact, when I read it, I assumed that she only has weekend visitation, which makes her demands for child support kind of strange….
Or the children’s father had them for a vacation around the holidays and they just got back.
TL;DR
Like a boss
To quote a line from the movie Slap Shot, “That c*nt is no good”
Oh, snap!
Remember this boys: The same woman who tortures this guy every day is the same woman who looked him in the eyes every day and convinced him she was nurturing, compassionate and loved him with all her heart
Just like the same guy who convinced me that he cared about me ended up playing psychological games with me. It was all just “in my best interest”.
But, “boys” aren’t capable of that. No, they never. STFU and GTFO.
No one ever said it can’t happen. It just honestly doesn’t happen as often.
Wow, you had a guy string you along while you had guys in between? It’s no surprise he left you. Probably after he found out about all the other guys you had while he was so-called “stringing you along”.
I mean, between the time I had been ditched by the one guy I wasted five years of my life on and this past relationship.
Actually, the guy who wasted five years of my life? We weren’t even an item for any of it except for six months. We agreed to have a friends with benefits thing and he lead me on that he was interested.
Please, girl; stop feeding the trolls.
if this happens to you this much, it is probably your fault.
quit putting rose tinted glasses on for cute guys.
Thank you for assuming. I don’t put on rose-tinted glasses for the stereotypical “cute guy”, thank you very much.
Was I attracted to each of them for different reasons? Yes. Would you put rose-tinted glasses on for someone you weren’t attracted to?

But, whatever makes you feel better about treating women like complete garbage.
Get off memebase if you don’t like it. Otherwise get used to it.
You just ruined it for yourself you foolish little girl
Ruined what? What are you even talking about?
I wouldn’t bother. You’re in the failblog comments here.
Do you know this saying: “Don’t argue with idiots; they drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.”

now please just leave this topic alone.
How do they manage to do this? My FB account will not let me do major essays like this, it keeps telling me there’s not enough characters.
That, or I haven’t got any character, not sure which….
How do we know that Adam (the guy) was the person who did the screenshot?
Ashleigh (his ex) may have done it so as to have the evidence in case he decided to delete it pretty well rapido like.
Well it seems to reflect a lot worse on Ashleigh than on Adam… What would Ashleigh need evidence for anyway? Evidence that she gave her kids a box of rocks on Christmas?

Is the crazy girl gone now? Is it safe to comment again?
Baha! I was thinking the same thing. 1000 internets to you sir.
This reminds me of what the wife of the guy who created To Love Ru did.
