Who's moderating?

But I like this thread.

At no point did I do that. And truth told you weren't the sole target of what I said. Again: We're better than that. The political discussions get us nowhere. The left vs. right arguments, while easy to start, are fruitless. This isn't the place for them. "Follow the rules or don't." I can get behind that. I think we'd benefit from following them. Not one of us on these forums can seriously believe political arguments are good for us. If you do, you're either paid to argue or you really enjoy high blood pressure.

If you think I'm trying to be a self-made Moderator, okay. I can live with that if it somehow deters everyone from sparking up the endless, useless, fruitless, pointless political arguments.

Actually, they gave us the okay to talk about other games shortly after they announced CoH was closing.

Politics is still a no-no.

Personally I don't think political discussions need to be anything but constructive. I have quite a few friends and relatives on the left and we have healthy discussions regularly. I did edit my post to point out that you were not the self made deputy in question but that you were piling on to that train of thought.

That ship sailed long ago. Good luck shutting down all the threads that don't follow the rules. The community decided a month ago that the rules went out the window with the game.

basically.

My tummy informs me that "it's still probably delicious."

Damn, now I want cake...

To a certain point and then the phrase "Oh my, you shouldnt have." becomes literal.

They been asking negativity to stop long ago, well as long as the forum rules came into creation, and yet...here we are.

Even ugly cake can be good...

Unless the person making the cake can't bake to save their life.

But you don't know until you try!

Same here.

Now what I did discover, and I should have realized it earlier, that your daily environment can really drive people to the extremes.

I grew up, went to college and now live in a part of the country where we rarely have people proselytizing. Also with the exception of the occasional nutjob we've been free of individuals at the local or state government level or on school boards trying to rewrite the science curriculum in the public schools. I've been involved with my state's science/engineering fair for over 30 years (winners sent to ISEF). In that time I've met a number of priests, ministers and nuns, some with doctorates in the biology, astronomy, etc. who have no issue separating matters of faith and belief from the facts of science. A significant number of our 7th and 8th grade entries to the junior part of the fair are from parochial schools and I've never seen one trying to prove that the Earth is only 6000 years old, trying to disprove evolution or any other extreme anti-science take on the world.

Because of this environment I had a hard time understanding the "all religious people are evil wack jobs who think science is the Devil's work" attitude from some people like BillZ until it was pointed out to me that when exposed to a constant barrage of proselytizing and anti-science (much more than I realized) that it's only natural to develop such a reaction when someone mentions religion. I now understand where the "hate" comes from and if I was in the same environment day after day after day I too would probably develop a similar reaction over time.

Yo, Dawg. I heard you like threadjacks, so I threadjacked your threadjack.

SoH cheesecake? Sister Psyche's good at that, too.

Those bubbles... what kind of bubble bath is she using?

And what is up with that tub? Either she's got that thing loaded with salt and is floating or its really shallow.

But if its salty... those bubbles are definitely strange.

Again, what is her bubble bath and where can I get it?

Its one of them there contemporary trough sinks.

Well, that's one question answered.

Of course, now I have even more...

And I still want that bubble bath she's using.

BTW your avatar... so freakin' kawaii
