There is no “lightening up” around here any more. You have to be very careful about what you say.

I was on a thread earlier today making comments about the Obama kids-peace sign shirt fiasco, and some jerk comes out of the blue and starts shooting at me. Totally ignored the basic premise of my comments.

Next thing you know, if somebody says “your” and you correct them to “you’re”, you might open the door and have some PO’d goon standing there with a shotgun. Seriesly!!

Jeesh! This place used to sometimes be fun. Now it’s just melancholy.

It’s much harder to determine the meaning of some comments when you’re not in front of the person to gauge them.

It doesn’t happen often with me.

I meant no offense, really, but only to warn of impending onslaught if he was indeed shaming and had plans of adding to it.

My relationships with priests have been shaky, at best. I’ve known some real hell-raisers that called themselves priests. So past experience didn’t help here.

FR is still fun.

I move that we move on.
