5. I found it is safer to keep a low profile.

I got beat up horribly by someone who didn't like a post I did early in my membership on microwaving coffee. Long story about dog ashes, but it made me wary of posting anything other than benign responses to others posts.

Microwaving coffee is likely to set off a week-long flamewar followed by years of simmering resentment.

You should get a medal for surviving a post about dog ashes.
