I Need Opinions From Strangers

I am always amazed at the kind of advice peas ask for from fellow peas. Sure I can see asking for other people's opinions, but some of the advice seekers go a little too far. Before I show you the current prize winner for the most ridiculous opinion post, let me share some past examples.

When should I go to the grocery store?
Cereal or a bath - At least she admits it's a dumb poll.
Wedding Photographer - This was not the only thread posted by this author about the subject matter. I wanted to shove a camera up her ass by the time it was over. I could not believe how serious this person was about getting help with choosing a photographer.
Which child's bed - Why is this something you need strangers to help you decide? This should have been a decision made by the parents and child.

So here is the winner for the month of March
Which house - Link 1, Link 2, Link 3, Link 4 - I saw no point to these threads what so ever. This was not about the author wanting peoples opinion on which house she should buy. Seriously now. This was nothing more than a way to show off and a poor attempt to hide it buy asking for opinions. Do you plan for any of the peas to take up residentcy in the home you choose? Are the peas helping you pay the mortgage? Why the hell are you wanting their opinion? This just got way too carried away in my opinion. If you find a house you plan to put an offer on, then fine go ahead and share it. Don't show picture after picture of inside and outside of houses. And really, is it necessary to tell everyone the price? The was nothing but plain old gloating at what one could afford. It was a sickening display and it dropped my opinion of the author.

I think every post she writes is about how much she can afford.

The 'stupid question' posts dumbfound me. I honestly do not understand how thick some people appear to be. Even worse though are some of the replies ! I mean really, if you don't have a freaking CLUE then DON'T GIVE ADVICE ON SOMETHING YOU KNOW NOTHING ABOUT !!

***ONCE UPON A TIME THERE WAS A LITTLE GIRL WHO DIDN'T FEEL GOOD ABOUT HERSELF.

SHE DECIDED SHE WANTED OTHERS TO FEEL BAD TOO, SO SHE STARTED A BLOG MAKING FUN OF OTHER PEOPLE.

EVEN THOUGH SHE GOT SOME THRILLS FROM IT BECAUSE SOME PEOPLE THOUGHT SOME OF IT WAS FUNNY, SHE STILL HAD AN EMPTY PLACE INSIDE HER HEART. THIS BLOG DID NOT FILL THAT EMPTY PLACE INSIDE HER HEART.

WE'RE NOT SURE HOW THIS STORY ENDS, BUT WE HOPE SHE REALIZES THAT PUTTING OTHERS DOWN DOES NOT MAKE YOU FEEL BETTER ABOUT YOURSELF. WE HOPE THIS LITTLE GIRL WILL PUT HER TIME AND ENERGIES ELSEWHERE TO ACTUALLY HELP PEOPLE IN NEED, INSTEAD OF TEARING PEOPLE DOWN.***

THE END

The comment above me was obviously from someone with money and not understanding that people who post about how much money they have are doing exactly what they are claiming this blogger does.
The beginning?
