"It isn't that I have that much against the post itself. I love a good "man blows himself up in a toilet" story like the next gal. What I find amazing is it has received 943 views. That means 943 people viewed this vs taking a walk outside or meeting a colleague for coffee. Frightening."

I wonder how much time she spent looking for examples of her frightening posts, PLUS that it had 943 views it means it was viewed 943 times not by 943 different people...ahhh

Yeah, she sent me some pics already...

Hmmm, the first quote is from the ... erm ... person who ripped my husband off in a sub-let scam and then went on to trash my apartment in Malta ...

Say whaaaaat?!

What's going on...first the riots in Africa...then the EF is down for a considerable amount of time...and now I hear that somebody was messing with my Nicola?!

ok.....................

Ahhh, you are sweet LIB!! It was unpleasant but, rest assured, he is far, far away now

I know, I know - it sounds very strange ... but is actually completely true!

Is this expat in zug? Did you ignore the very obvious tell tale red blobbies before apartment swapping?

Indeed it is and, sadly, they weren't there at the time
Nor did I award him any ... he earned those all by
himself

i'm not actually sure about that..
today i was watching a really riveting thread , and although the post number changed, the views number didnt...

but then 943 people in the 6.8 billion on the planet, isn't really that many, is it

I find it scary that she posts her pictures, opinions and her boy for the whole world to see. Hasn't anyone told her this stuff will come back to bite her? Wait. I believe it already has.

I'll weigh in later.

Well, "the Boy" is in IT, so presumably he would have warned her

At least Google ranks EF above her site for her own blog...

I still want to know if the Evita musical is fact or fiction. lol.

Take measures of truth, falsehood, exaggeration and reduction, stir it all up together, and there you have it.

Just seems some might envy popularity of EF and all the hits it gets, I guess all bloggers watch this...or the eager beaver ones, at least. I don't think it will win her more readership, though. Bashing in all safety of one's blog is like yelling at somebody from safety of one's apartment window. No logic.

What's funny is that she nags over people being emotional and silly on EF, wasting time, while she spends her all morning writing a post about this, apparently has a talk about it with her (real, mind you) friend (albeit only briefly, that made me chuckle) and an ongoing discussion in the reply section. So, what is the difference, exactly? Self promotion, much? The "we are different than those expats" gets old. Since, we are all in the same boat. Some people chitchat about it, some laugh, some feel the urge to bash others in their personal blogs in order to make themselves stand out more..Bah. So high school.

(this message is too short)

I guess we're just too helpful, kind and charming. As we don't bolster her arguments, she ignores us. A cross we'll jusst have to bear.
