Well, now I know the beaver reference. So they hijacked the post long before I knew it.

Why?

Why must everything be so divisive that it runs people off?

Why must everything be so divisive that it runs people off?

I'm not sure how to take your question. If you think I'm being divisive, that is not my intent. My reference was to a TV show that was from a time when things seemed more "wholesome"--at least upon looking back at it. Although, I'm sure it wasn't when people were actually going through that period.

However, if you're talking in general terms, allow me to cut and paste something I wrote earlier in another thread:

I would say trolls are among us in this forum who like to instigate a lot of in-fighting. I don't doubt that some go way back when this forum began. It also doesn't help that we are humans with two sides of a brain; so, as conservative as some of us "feel" or "think" we are, we tend become very emotional and passionate, and tend to write some very dumb "liberal" things as a result.

Allow me to add: It doesn't help when we become too sensitive and PC to not recognize some (attempt at) humor, whether we find it funny or not.
