I'm sorry. I've been reading the boards on Ravelry and been posting all over the Loopy Ewe stuff. And while I'm being snarky, I don't want to be snarky there. My mama taught me better.
My thing is, why are you slinging a fit when you don't manage to buy yarn? It is NOT meds. Nor food. Nor shelter from a storm. Nor any other thing needed by a man. (Yes, I'm ripping Shakespeare here with Juliet's speech about "what's in a name" - we just tested it) IT'S JUST YARN.
And from what I hear, knits like hell. So I don't think I would be all into the all hour F5 fests some people have been putting themselves through. I found her yarn before TLE even knew about it. I found it on a link from some random blog I clicked into and thought, huh...pretty yarn. Maybe I should order some. But at that time, Claudia's site was just that...a site. Not a store. She didn't even have much by way of a shop. And you know, the more I think about it, the dumber it sounds. Pitching hissy fits and sending nasty emails and starting drama over a thing that can't save a life? That can't feed you? Really? It's not like when Katrina hit NO and people couldn't get clean drinking water.
There's no call for all this hullabaloo. I mean, sure, it was fun flooding the thread when Sheri offered 2 free skeins. But after that, it was just stupid to sit there and moan about how pitiful we are cause we didn't get what we wanted.
And this is the face we show the world. No wonder many countries in Europe see us as spoiled toddlers. We are. How can we get pissy when we are looked down on for being petty? WE ARE. God and don't get me started on all the other crap we bitch about for stupid reasons.
I'm obviously grumpy.
