What do you Pukin Dog do for a living?

I see that question a lot on these sort of threads. What difference does it make? What if PD is a high-school student? What if PD is a retired senior on disability?

because when you see this happening first hand, it has a bearing on your opinion on it. if someone is a retired public school teacher, they have no first hand perspective on this.

What difference does it make?

While it makes no difference; some would like to use the answer to suggest that one has no right to comment unless they have "been there". Which of course, is silly.

It would be like saying those of us who have not been politicians have no right to comment on politics.
