That reminder is on every posting page. I think it started way back in 01 or 02 when we had some military folks in the field talking about what they were doing.

This isn’t about you.

Why is it so hard for some folks just to answer a question without adding a self righteous comment to it?

When we “step ‘n it” there is no going back for a do-over. One gets kidded, lambasted, made fun of, guilt tripped and lampooned until the thread runs out of steam.

One poster said that some airline high drama was unfolding just after 9/11 and since her husband was flying she wanted anyone who could to post an update to her as she WAS JUST GETTING INTO THE SHOWER. A decade later, she wears it as a badge of honor that others remember it so many years hence.

You might as grin and bear it because it isn’t going to stop just because you have now slapped your head.

Oo, you shouldn’t have done that — now they know they can tease you off. I made the same mistake in 3rd grade and have been paying for it ever since.
