You're making me feel like a young pup. LOL

When people get this wound up, I always think of my favorite line from the Play / Movie “Harvey”.

‘In this world Elwood, you must be oh so smart or oh so pleasant.’ Well, for years I was smart. I recommend pleasant. And you may quote me.”

There isn't a whole lot of pleasant around here lately, and I have even found myself not following that dictate.

If you have never seen that Movie, I highly recommend it. I guarantee it will bring a smile to your heart.

Oh, I know Harvey. Good movie but I haven't seen it in decades. As someone else said; it gets this way every election season. As an '04 minted FReeper you truly did miss some of the most contentious flame wars in FR history. But there have been some darned good ones since then and purges as well. I guess you just didn't participate which might speak very well of you. Personally I used to be a wayyyy bigger a-hole than I am now. I've toned it down a lot partly because I wanted to and partly because the mods gave me several subtle indications that it wasn't appreciated.

Notice how only one person, other than the OP, has been zotted here? He decided that his "freedom of expression" meant he ought to be able to be as disrespectful of everybody, including the site owner and his rules, as he felt like. And that he could rub that fact in our noses. Kind of like how drunk kids act with cops all the while bellowing about "freedom of speech." That works good too. lol
