Hello,
My name is Rebecca Melo
Because of you I had to delete my instagram account. I hope you are happy with how you reck lives on the internet. You had no business looking at my pics or writing a comment. You must be a pedophile if you are creeping girls online. GET A LIFE!!!

Actually I don't. I also take offence to you calling me a pedophile. That's a pretty strong and unfounded accusation.
What exactly did I do to cause you such alarm?

I wrote about your picture. Okay ... What was in the picture? Where did I write about your picture? Rebecca, I need you to be very specific here. You have written me assuming I am a pedophile and insinuating I've caused you a grievance so here's the issue, I wrote dozens of comments on Instagram photos and 99% of them are asking people to please keep their dirty shoes and boots off train seats. So I am going to ask you, and I need you to be real honest with me, did I write a comment on a photo of yours asking you to keep your feet off the seats?

Yes you did and you had no business creeping my account. You also were rude and embarrassing because you said I was sitting in dog shit.

Rebecca,
"Dog shit" are not words I use. I know what I write on photos like yours. I inform people that I hope that the seat they are sitting in has the remnants of a foot rider's shoe's bacteria that could contain dog feces because it aggravates me that people are so ignorant. Do you ever think about what you're leaving behind on a seat when you put your dirty shoes or boots on it? What about the seat you sat in? How would you feel if you learned you sat where someone had their shoes or boots? And there was dog poop left behind? Or urine from a bathroom? Pretty gross, right?
I do not "creep" photos. I browse hashtags. You know #gotrain? It's the only way I would have found your photo. Your age and gender are irrevelant. I don't care if you are a teenager or adult. The courteous way to ride a public train, especially one as expensive at GO Transit, is to sit in a seat with your feet on the floor. I find it ridiculous that my comment asking you to respect other passenger's comfort and cleanliness is the sole reason for you to remove your account from instagram. You must not be used to critiscm or you didn't understand that #gotrain or #gotransit actually serves a purpose and isn't just a cute way of labeling a picture. You owe me an apology for your pedophile comment. That was uncalled for. It's not my fault you don't know how to internet.
****
And that was the last I heard from Rebecca
Perfect response!
ReplyDeleteHis mother, Rebhorn wrote, “taught him the value of good manners and courtesy, and that hospitality is no small thing."
ReplyDelete- From the obituary of actor James Rebhorn.
Rebecca needs a mom like Mrs. Rebhorn.
When someone posts content online, in a public message, that person gives up the right to privacy.
ReplyDeleteSome people really need to learn to Internet better.
A pedophile?
ReplyDeleteWow.
^ Exactly.
ReplyDeleteWhen you post something public on the internet it's automatically free grabs. It's your fault that you have a problem with people viewing your instagram account because it aint private. Read the fine print gurl and learn to internet better.
ReplyDeleteIt seems to be the new last line of defense for those with wounded senses of entitlement.
ReplyDeleteI took a pic of a suit smoking under a no smoking sign last fall, and he followed me across a parking lot to ask why. I told him it was muy hobby to take photos of people who actively ignored courtesy and public signage.
He told me I had no right; I insisted that I had 100% more right to take his picture in a public place than he had to light up under a no-smoking sign.
He then bizarrely escalated to "I saw you yesterday taking pictures of little girls".
I mean - what the f*ck? I guess when their sense of self justified entitlement gets wrecked they fall back to an arsenal of such wack-a-doodle and pathetic postures.
@CJ:
ReplyDeleteI need clarity on the new voting concept.
I have four choices:
Love, Hate, what a moron, Chainsaw.
I'm conflicted as to how to vote as I don't want my intentions to be misconstrued.
I "love" your parts in this as it is hillarious how you handle this situation. But I don't want Rebecca to think the vote is for her part in this.
I think Rebecca is quite the moron in this case and wish to indicate so without it coming across as being towards you.
I think I just want to take a "chainsaw" to Rebecca's stupidity which you exposed in this conversation. But again, don't wish to have your part in this as additional carnage.
So if you could explain the best way to let my feelings be known through the voting process, I would greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance for resolving my confliction.

I can't fit all of the above in the DIV tag... But you explained your feelings and whatever emotion you feel I would never misconstrue
ReplyDeleteThe last resort of stupid people. Anyhoodles, I am kinda sad that there were no legal threats. I always love the responses of the cattorneys.
ReplyDeleteI love your responses to these people, still amazed at the amount of people using the internet and hashtags that have no idea the audience they have. It's quite funny that they can't argue with your logic.
