I guess that bridge was unnecessary so the Twin Cities should not miss it all that much! |

You need a safe place with good people right now.

12. I can't imagine you would be. |
|
It would really be unreasonable to expect you to be unemotional and detattched about this, and telling people off for asshattery is something you're quite capable of doing while staying within the rules.
And all the cool posters have a warning or two anyway. :thumbsup:

13. Saw one like that earlier. Let the interstates fall into decay to "save" America |
|
from the evils of oil dependency, urban sprawl, and gum disease, I guess. One of those threads where you walk in by mistake, and back out quietly before anyone notices you.
All progress is bad. Caveman liberals. I used to think only Republicans were like that. But apparently not. :cry:

19. That's like the foks who demand that everyone STOP DRIVING. |
|
Demand that everyone use public transportation, and won't listen to reason. Not everyone has access to it. You can't always get from here to there on the bus. Etc., etc. They will have none of it though. Nada. Zip. Zilch. There is NO REASON why everyone on earth can't use public transportation, or walk or bike. It's their way or no way.
Shit like that makes me want to throw things. :grr: :grr: :grr:

21. I did ask the person if they were oil free |
|
pointing out that the keyboard they were typing on was likely made of plastic - which is a petroleum product.

I suspect this is one of those few topics that I leave the Lounge to purposely piss off bike-mad GD'ers.

stating that he too is part of the problem and that his existence includes poisoning our planet.
I informed him that, for all he knows, there are family members of the victims lurking here and that he needs to think before he speaks. Oh, and I informed him that if he had mouthed like that in public I would have punched him in the face.

You shouldn't rely on DU so much for your emotional/intellectual life or as a support network.
DU, and GD in particular, like much of the online "community", is a haven for sociopaths, paranoid schizophrenics, and garden variety assholes.
It's best to view DU with bemusement and/or detachment. Being so absorbed with the opinions and random misfirings of the mentally ill is not healthy.
It's really not that hard to stay away. I check in for 10 minutes or so, then when the nausea kicks in, I step away... ;-)
