you guys can say anything to me,cuz nothing bothers me on these internet forums.

Eggs-zac-a-tac-a-ly. Glad to see there are some adults whose self esteem is immune from forum opinions

''unwelcoming, avoiding threads, felt attacked, must defend myself...'' Puhleeze. It''s the innurnetz

No silly pledge for me.


Of course I''m going to be dismissive of radicals seeing the end-times around every corner, people who believe everything they read on every self aggrandizing propaganda filled website, and those who are just 2 jokers short of a full deck of cards.

LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You know, I would love to take this pledge, but, that would be disingenuous of me, because there are at least 2 people on this board that are very snarky. And I feel I have to snark back to defend myself. I simply make a comment, that differs from their opinion, and they get snarky about it. I can''t help but feel like not coming back to this board sometimes. What happened to the Republican and Democrat threads? At least I felt safe there. I did not go to the opposing thread to say anything. It is only in these general threads that the snarking happens. I''m not in at this time. I will have to think about it.

Hi Star, I feel you 100%. I miss that thread, a lot. I am thinking about leaving ATW completely until at least the election is sorted out, but I''d be sorry to see you go, too. Someone has to stay behind and ''fight the good fight!''

Overall, I just feel like ATW makes PS feel like an unwelcoming place right now..I''m going to do some thinking myself about what direction I want to go in.

You should ask for their phone number see if they want a fist fight rather than hide behind a nickname and be snarky and all.

Just kidding but hey if there''s a fist fight, I''m IN at least as a spectator.

Yeah I don''t fight people over political stuff - just words after-all, so you won''t see fist fight from me. But maybe someone else will be up for it!

Hehe just kidding.

Some people just don't know the difference between being vocal in free speech country or just plain snarky. It doesn't happen ONLY on ATW, I've seen it on HANGOUT. And, you Purrfectpear is a perfect example on my thread in HANGOUT. Yes, you are entitle to your thoughts but you were way out of line.
Am I being snarky? In this case, I'm just stating facts.

You have a recent thread in hangout

You don''t mean the one from months ago where you decided your husband gave you his ex''s diamond (and lied about it) do you? If so, I''d say your angst is misplaced
