Why do so many people hate Crimson Rose and Ladybee?

Post by TheEvilCrimsonRose » Wed Jan 12, 2005 1:44 am

I've never had any problems with them myself. Sure, they seem a little full of themselves and--certainly in the case of Ladybee--not at the level of competence that their jobs with the LLC require. But I wonder what they've done to get people's backs up so. Do you think their critics are all men, who are just intimidated by women in positions of authority?

How about *you* take the initiative to ask the moderator to purge this thread seeing as 1) it will inevitably lead to yet another flame war where personal insults are levied against others who aren't here to defend themselves against the sort of shit this type of topic engenders and 2) because you're being disingenuous is suggesting you have 'no problems' with them yourself yet, come in as a first time poster and create a thread that is specifically targeted towards individuals.

I'm not buying it.

I do however, think you're an ass.

I fail to see what any of this has to do with procuring the best possible drugs for this year's event.

I have been to BRC the last 8 years and have had art on the playa the last 6. Both Crimson Rose and LadyBee have gone out of their way to extend support to me personally and my projects. My second year I went back up to the playa for a weekend to help moop, a necessary but not fun job...you form a side-bye-side line and walk for 8 hours picking up anything and everthing. Next to me all day was Crimson Rose... she could have found lots of good reasons not to be there, but she didn't. How many people at the top end of organizations are that willing to be with the troops and volunteers. I learned more tha a little about Crinson that day and it was all good.
