If you think about it, old farts really are the best lurkers.
Here's the thing about us old timers around here: We've seen it all ... probably two, three times or more on this forum and have seen groups of temper-tantrum throwers come and go.
None of which has ever 'upset' me, rather I've been mostly amused by it all. Life's too short to let what some anonymous poster on a public chat forum bother me, especially if they're taking personal aim.
A debate over political ideology and ideas I'm all for. Heck I've learned a thing or two on here over the years (mostly from fellow old farts.)
But I gotta tell ya, these newbies on here (pretty much everyone that signed up after 1999) just have no class, little education, and no sense of humor. They tend to whine about everything, take their ball and go home when they start losing an argument or their feelings get hurt, then go crying to an Admin Mod.
I mean for crying out loud, if they don't have a stomach for the fight on an anonymous public political chat forum, what the bloody hell do they think is going to happen to them in REAL LIFE??
OMG, the HORROR OF IT ALL!
