Default I like boats.

I like all sorts of boats, I like hiking, fishing, camping outdoors in a
tent, I like bicycling, I like travel, I like collecting and shooting
firearms, I like old cars, especially crappy, hopeless old English sports
cars from the 1950s and early 1960s.

I don't like politics. I don't like insulting people, especially people I
don't know and probably will never meet, I don't like arguing for the
sake of argument, I don't like ganging up on other posters, I don't like
nasty language.

I have the feeling I have chosen the wrong group in which to waste a
little free time. I haven't done a survey and I won't, but my gut tells
me that about 90% of the posts in here are attacks on other posters, on
politicians, on where one stands in the political spectrums.

Is that the fun part?

Go to a moderated group if you want decency.
Everybody here is indecent, or here because of old habit.
No sane person would come here otherwise.



really?

Well, I will agree with the 'old 'habit' part.

You're right! Then there's the other 10% of us who pass the popcorn
and stay out of the fray.



Is that the fun part?


Always!

That attacks on or insults of other posters seem to be the fun here rather
than friendly discussions.

Well, depends on who you filter or how you take it. My best friend in
the whole world besides family, is about the biggest asshole you could
ever meet, specially when he's drinkin', and he's always drinkin'. But
he's my best bud, it is what it is... I still hang out with him when I
can cause he's my bud and we have history.

You can thank Harry Krause for trying to set that tone 15 years ago.
It's been an ongoing effort but it really didn't take hold till about
five years ago. As was pointed out to you a while ago, there are sailing
and paddling groups that might suit you better, unless, of course you
are an anonymous troll who likes to stir up rec.boats.
