Man, there's so much shit that goes on here
that I don't even know what to think. This site is not innocent. I know that much. It would be nice if we could be innocent, but I think we are far beyond that state. There's real warfare going on here. Call me naive for just now realizing it 2.5 years later. Call me what you want. But there's some serious shit going down here. I think it's time I dragged my ass out of the non-poltical forums. I used to post in the political forums when I signed up to this site. After the election I just plain didn't give a fuck. I think it's time to get back into it.

5. I'm sorry
But what I just witnessed has to do with the PM of a banned poster. I can't post a link to that.

7. I set somebody on Ignore for the first time today
that takes a lot for me to do. I never once even thought about it, but this guy was just out of hand.

8. There's alot of Fear and Loathing here
and not all of it is directed at the other side, I'm sorry to say. But that's the nature of boards like this; I don't think it'll change..

9. Well, shit, Pard. We'll still see you around. I have an appointment...
in a few hours at the VA. I plan to show up shit-faced, as usual, so I can look at all my crippled Bros without crying.

10. I know it is tough but should you be shit-faced @ a dr.s appt?
What about remembering instructions they tell you?
Will it skew test results?

I want everything to be o.k. so don't take any risks with the booze bro!:scared: :cry:

12. Wow.
I have seen some off the wall posts and some downright mean posts but I have yet to see anything so rabid that I've had to hit "alert" or put the person on ignore. However I'm usually in during graveyard hours so I often see lots of deleted messages so I seem to miss all of the vitriol. Perhaps I'm luckier that way.


I have seen some really detestable garbage on other messageboards and that is why I've stopped going to some of them. I hope that doesn't happen here--I really have come to like DU.

Best wishes to you Droopy, I'd hate to miss out on your posts. I always enjoy reading them here.
