For some reason, I am more amused by the Private profiles that are listed.

oh my - another death in the extremely overcrowded Y, Somme, Picardie, France! There must be some sort of gravitational pull that has all these thousands of people traveling from all over the globe to die there....

Once I had some time on my hands and just for the hell of it I DID do a tree right up to Adam and beyond then back down the other side and I laughed and laughed then erased it all....Also when it for to Cain marrying Abel's twin sister and Abel marrying Cain's twin sister(How convenient they both had twin sisters) My Heritage asked me if I really wanted to add sister's as wives..I spit my coffee laughed so hard then told them... "Come on now I KNOW you are Mormon's who read the bible you of all people should believe this stuff"..I left it on to bug them.

Blog Reviews

Barking has been "deemed offensive to [Ancestry.com's] brand" and is banned from their Facebook pages. In Ancestry's "Community" comments with links to Barking are censored.
Dear Emma, Hannah, Jemima, Mary Jane, and all of her other personalities agree that I use "the banner of 'education' to actually mock, deride and laugh at [Ancestry's] own customers" and I "can make [my] point concerning tree inaccuracies & cock-ups and their effect on our 'hints' system without being downright unpleasant and sarcastic about it."
Allen says, “your cute little blog is a waste of bandwidth at best”
Ann thinks I'm "...copying and pasting mistakes on trees and calling it a blog" and that my readers are "mean-spirited people...who like to have a laugh at the expense of others."
Sue was really offended by the “...continual stream of sarcasm and constant poking fun...What a nasty taste in my mouth your blog left me with. Unpleasant, sarcastic and jeering at people who you obviously see as your intellectual inferiors. Won't be reading that again.”
And finally from Les, "You truly are a horrible woman, pointing out mistakes is one thing but blatantly laughing and taking the p is completely out of order."

Why?

Researching our family histories we are bound to make mistakes. Hopefully we are quick to correct them. Unfortunately some people refuse to read or think before adding information to their family trees. Some trees have been abandoned so the errors are there for eternity. Here we will laugh, mock and shake our heads at the carelessness, stupidity and/or ignorance of those errors.
All examples are taken from trees published online.
I'll also post tips occasionally, though the messed up trees are a great example of what NOT to do.
If you have an online tree to suggest for a future post please send me a link: buwtree(at)gmail(dot)com
