Havn't heard from him in awhile, you on hiatus Cuda? I miss your perspective in these discussions.

[CobGobbler]

I heard his wife is giving birth to their 17th kid or something.

[flip]

Lol, oh, he's been busy procreating

[CUDA]

I'm here never left

I decided to step back for a few and get a fresh perspective on this cesspool of discussion.

I've come to the conclusion that most here don't wish to have a discussion or even a vigorous debate. their sole want is to trash others regardless of what is said. they make no attempt to be civil in their debates. they make personal attacks incessantly, and really add nothing to the discussion except for their willingness to degrade and abuse their fellow board members. I guess it's easy to act tough behind a monitor.

Then there are the few that dash in like a seagull squawking, ★■◆● on a few people then fly away. WTF??

And then there are a couple here that only post to incite controversy period.

there are those that stand their ground on a position even after being proved wrong. and those that will argue an opposing position on a subject that they really have no idea what they are talking about.

does that sum it all up

I guess that's what society has become. shame really. welcome to the internet, where being anonymous is like a bottle of courage, ignorance, stupidity and intolerance in a single shot.

but it's good to be back with all you losers

[Foil]

Can't you just feel the love?

On a serious note, with only a couple of exceptions, almost every single long-term E&C poster here has taken some time off at some point. It's fine, and it's probably healthy.

[flip]

Welcome back!

[Sergeant Thorne]

ouch

Well put.

You mean you want debates, not arguments? Most people don't have time to do the research for intelligently debating a subject much of the time, so all you're usually gonna get are arguments. Picky, picky. I do have another life.

it would seem then that "most" people like to wallow in their ignorance, instead of trying to improve themselves

[dissent]

because, at some point, almost any thread can benefit from a cute kitten video -



that, and the Kimwipe box is close to home for me.

Yes, I leave the neighborhood from time to time too, but it's always nice to know I can come back to visit my dysfunctional kinfolk.

Ah, you still care.

My guilt has been adroitly flensed by Cuda's heart felt post.

UUUHHHH


Yea




well at least staying in practice. the wife's plumbing doesn't work anymore

[Tunnelcat]

Tell your wife I can relate to her on that one.

[Ferno]

Tell your wife I can relate to her on that one.

aha! that explains a few things.

[Tunnelcat]

Yep. It's all downhill for most women after 50, in both the plumbing AND attitude department. But what's the matter? You boys don't like older, grouchy, pain suffering, shriveled, androgen-dominant women? You'd rather have those soft, supple, estrogen-brained, subservient little women to deal with?

[flip]

Yup!!

[Ferno]

nope. we just want a woman who doesn't find fault in every small thing we do. If you want a fantasy, go read a romance novel.

[CUDA]

Funny. My wife's over 50 and she's none of the things you described

CUDA, all I can say is that she's one of the blessed few. I'm glad for her. I wouldn't wish this crap on anyone, because it sure nailed me to the wall for 15 years. I'm still not even 50% anymore. Probably never will be either. Perhaps you, and even her, should go over to http://www.power-surge.com/php/forums/ and do a little topic reading if you don't believe me. There are a LOT of women even crazier, sicker or worse off than I.
