The psychology of nastiness is a big subject, and we all know that the internet attracts more than its fair share of the creeps: http://personal-computer-tutor.com/abc2/v16/linda16.htm

Rest assured your blog is much appreciated, not only by those who like to post comments, but also the very many of us who – usually – don’t.

People are definitely arseholes. I love your blog and sometimes I come just FOR the nail polish and celebrity gossip. I could care less if you sewed something this week. HA! I’m a bit behind on blog reading, as you can probably tell, but I ran across this post from Isabelle’s blog where she had a similar thing happen. I’ve had a twisted version of this happen about a year ago…a well known blogger left a really nasty comment on my blog telling me to stay off her blog!!! WTH? I had no idea what she was talking about since I hadn’t been on her blog in weeks. I emailed and asked what’s up and lo and behold…someone had left a nasty comment for her, but used my blog URL as their website! So even though the name didn’t match the name I post under, she assumed it was me because it linked to my site. Now that’s rotten. (I don’t think she ever did believe it wasn’t me, which is a shame, but c’est la vie.)

Love this rant. I agree with you. Isn’t is a shame some people waste time and energy leaving crazy comments. I believe they’re simply missing something in their own lives and want to “spread the hate” to everyone in their paths.

Anyway, this post is totally hilarious and brought a series of smiles to my face. Hopefully, the culprit has found something else to do with their time.

Thanks so much!

I thought I was the only one that said “For F… Sake?” LOL! I can understand, that would upset me to. I don’t mind constructive criticism, but ugliness and just outright meaness, I just would not tolerate. I guess I should take it as a blessing that my blog isn’t popular enough to get the crazies leaving me comments, I don’t have time for that mess. Anyway, when I do stop by, I love what you share, you brighten my day. :0)

Brava.

I read a lot of blogs and I don’t comment as often as I should because my time is limited, but I can’t imagine taking the time to actually make NEGATIVE comments. Someone needs to get a life, and stop commenting on yours, because as comment #87, I think they’re pretty outnumbered as far as enjoying what you post here.

Not to long ago I witnessed a similar situation on another one of the PR ladies blogs. WTF?! this is absolutely awful. I too enjoy all your posts and its great to see so many ladies with common interests come together. I love your blog lady and you do a great job at it!!

Cidell, your blog is such a blessing and joy to read. I am so sorry that you received awful comments. As a faithful reader, you are awesome and thank you for writing what you do.

Not much more I can as I certainly agree that if people don’t like what we write on our blogs they just don’t have to read them. I actually enjoy the chance to get to know the person behind the sewing and love that sewing blogs contain glimpses into someone’s life.

Oh I am so sorry someone(s) have/has done that to you. It is sickening.

Unfortunately, haters will always be around. Being envious and jealous is so not “hot”.
