I slip once in a while, but there's a huge difference between hoping to find some boating related discussion at this site and cranking out one troll-post after another. Wonder what they'd think over on the "libs.r.us" or "bush.for.king" sites if I just started posting a bunch of boating related threads? My bet is that would be just as silly and out of place as all the political trolls are on this boating site. Yeah, yeah. "You can ignore them". That's like trying to ignore the litter after the recycling truck rolls over at the corner. :-) |
