		<description>I've been watching from the sidelines and I've noticed a lot of this - not only in this arena but in others.

I've never found it attractive or witty to be a bitch. Yet in seems to permeate our society. I don't watch much tv but I shun American Idol because of what *I* perceive as deliberate cruelty and bitchiness.

I think I am a genuinely nice person at heart and I want no part of it. I don't respond and I try to not read it. I guess I vote with my mouse....</description>

		<description>Oh Anne, you're so sweet. And exactly my point about how the majority of people aren't like that at all! Thank you.

		<description>I was there not too long back, remember?  I know what you are feeling and (((HUGS))) to you Lauren.  You are such a wonderful person and I'm glad that you're not like those snarky bitches out there.  You know what else I love?  That you just pop over to my blog and post a comment on a post I put up on a book I love... THAT to me is a friendly down-to-earth girl.  Love you!</description>

		<description>Banging head on desk. Do we even want to know who is being crucified now? Have i mentioned recently how awesome and incredible you are and what a wonderful champion you are for pointing out that maintaining a positive point of view is more important than anything else. You Lauren are one of my favorite people on the planet. (Would a blog hug be too mushy here?)</description>
