I got a genuine chuckle, and respect your honesty and bluntness.
I think this half of what people wanted, a mere admission that you (the H & A) are a clique, that the clique likes to be mean as a group, and that not only are you quite aware of this, you glory in it.
Fair enough.
Of course the other half of what they wanted was for you gals to chill out and stop it

Well, I do what I can.
Although I think you are misinterpreting the post. I did not say that the H&A likes to be mean (although I think there may be one or two members that get more of a kick out of it than I do). I don't think there is a single one of us who sits down at our computer in the morning and says, "Hmmm, who am I going to be mean to on GC today?" I simply said that we don't shy away from it (which is pretty much a felony on this board) and that sometimes we enjoy the results.
I'm just not sure what people expect from their complaints? Does somebody honestly think that if they start enough "We hate the H&A" threads on GC (bullying, what?) we'll suddenly say, "Wow, we really ARE mean! We must stop, repent our sinning ways, and apologize to everyone for making fun of their boyfriends/makeup application/dogs! We're horrible people! People forgive us!"?
In fact, these posts about how mean we are probably have the opposite of the desired effect -- I'm like, "Well, I don't think I've ever been particularly mean on GC, but since everybody assumes I am anyway, why not start calling people ugly when I feel like it?"
Just some food for thought . . .
