    Yep, there are plenty of people I disagree with. And I can go 8 or 9 pages disagreeing with them. But while I don't share all their views, I really don't have a problem with them.

    Even the few that I seem to be at odds with 90% of the time are probably more like me than most of the people I come into contact with during the day. We simply don't agree on every subject under the sun.

    I don't even strongly dislike the one person I have on ignore. I just couldn't have a reasonable discussion with that person so I stopped trying.
    It's hard to be a ACLU hating, philosophically Libertarian, socially liberal, fiscally conservative, scientifically grounded, agnostic, porn admiring gun owner who believes in self determination.

    Chuck, we miss ya man.

    I feel like you're talking about me, and movies.
    We miss you, AC.
    We miss you, ToddG.

    I had someone tell me that "I did not know sh*t" and was "totally clueless" in one thread.

    A person I had zero prior dealings with...nor was my post meant to incite anyone.

    Instead of arguing back and forth and calling names...I just dropped out of the thread.

    There is no reason to argue with someone that insults people they do not even know nor have they ever conversed with in any threads.

    Some people were just not raised right.

    Since they are not my children...it is not my place to try to teach them manners.
