Ain't that the truth. Elaine Send a noteboard - 10/02/2011 01:02:02 PM
We are sick and tired of the way the political discussion tend to go here. That is very different from being sick and tired of each other in general.


I love my friends here and would yap all day long if only the work firewall would cooperate. However, I will not participate in one more blasted thread that degenerates into the usual suspects firing the usual inanities at each other.

What happened that this board doesn't discuss politics/current events anymore? Aeryn - 09/02/2011 02:52:23 PM 953 Views
One already knows exactly which argument one will get into with exactly which other people. nossy - 09/02/2011 03:21:03 PM 619 Views
that's what it seems like to me too. temeraire - 09/02/2011 04:49:28 PM 593 Views

For my money, what rt said is the root cause of what you said. Joel - 09/02/2011 08:56:25 PM 591 Views
Oh there is plenty. More than enough for my taste ironclad - 09/02/2011 04:08:21 PM 614 Views

That's hardly a surprise considering the site is running from EUROPEAN SOIL!1!! *NM* ironclad - 10/02/2011 08:14:10 PM 225 Views
I think there is just a general lack of people talking about pretty much anything anymore *NM* random thoughts - 09/02/2011 04:25:35 PM 210 Views
For me, it's an increasing lack of time as the economy picks up. Tom - 09/02/2011 04:46:08 PM 615 Views

It's still discussed, too much almost. Stephen - 09/02/2011 05:59:56 PM 595 Views
Note: I see the irony of my reply. Sorry. Stephen - 09/02/2011 06:41:38 PM 715 Views
I don't see the irony. Aeryn - 10/02/2011 01:25:41 AM 563 Views
It just seemed that way to me, sorry Stephen - 10/02/2011 07:58:05 PM 522 Views
It IS unhealthy and dangerous. Dannymac - 09/02/2011 07:16:53 PM 569 Views
Hey, when was the last time ireland got into a war that wasn't with ourselves? Stephen - 09/02/2011 07:18:20 PM 488 Views
I'm fairly sure the "European" comment was because two of her three topics were American ones. Legolas - 09/02/2011 07:38:44 PM 562 Views
Were I you, I would post about the election, yes. Joel - 09/02/2011 08:59:48 PM 539 Views
My personal strategy is posting what I find interesting, whether it gets replies or not. Legolas - 09/02/2011 09:09:13 PM 556 Views
This of course begs the question... *NM* Sareitha Sedai - 09/02/2011 06:03:20 PM 223 Views
Did you not see my post on Chipotle firing illegal workers? Macharius - 09/02/2011 06:57:12 PM 633 Views
Well, to be fair... Sareitha Sedai - 09/02/2011 07:04:30 PM 566 Views

There is nothing new under the sun. Dannymac - 09/02/2011 07:24:08 PM 583 Views
Thus spoke Qohelet *NM* Bramhodoulos - 09/02/2011 07:53:01 PM 227 Views
Yup. *NM* Darth_Katie - 09/02/2011 08:38:23 PM 204 Views
Sometimes, yes. Other issues, typically theological ones, I can't stomach remaining silent. *NM* Zalis - 09/02/2011 09:27:55 PM 401 Views
So basically we're sick & tired of each other. THAT is a true death knell for the community. *NM* Aeryn - 10/02/2011 01:23:29 AM 215 Views
That doesn't follow Camilla - 10/02/2011 08:00:45 AM 569 Views
Exactly *NM* ironclad - 10/02/2011 10:24:23 AM 250 Views

Depends whom you ask, though I tend to agree with you. Joel - 09/02/2011 08:50:58 PM 700 Views
