If we are going t go there, then everything could be considered on topic, including political trolls. Gould wrote: I agree that JimH's post didn't mention putting lights on boats. And it's true that 2-3 guys use this NG as a sort of "myspace" page, fulfilling a need to communicate the smallest details of daily life to a tiny group of unkown individuals. JimH wrote: You term as sheriff expires at the end of the year. Go find another job already. I'd make a lousy dentist. No way to know when you're going to hit an exposed and hypersensitive nerve. :-) You really shouldn't have "snipped" the rest of my reply, however. I was half-assed defending your silly thread, and pointing out that goofball posts like "I took a photo of our dog scratching his ear with my new D90000 camera with the 6.8-400mm lens that I bought on Ebay for $XXX,XXX" are a lot less destructive than "Republicans are assholes," "Bush is an idiot" "Hillary is a lesbian" or "Democrats support the terrorists" cut 'n pastes. There is a subtle but important difference between having anything compelling to post and feeling compelled to post just anything. |
