....that other running forum site that people often talk about in here.

And my reaction after a few minutes was

It seemed like it was just a case of a few bad apples spoiling the whole bunch but it sure made this place seem refined and dignified!

And that's sayin' somethin'! Razz

You guys are nice can I stick around for a while? pink love

I call it the Sausage Factory. For the most part, you feel okay about eating the products but you don't want to look too hard at it.

I hit and run, usually.

We need more people from America, Jr. Stay as long as you like, but keep out of the liquor cabinet!

I gave it up. Too many people trying to be "serious" when all they were doing is baiting you to make some statment.

I like it here - purely inane and non threatening.

That other place is a puppet factory with a lot of name calling. It humors me on occasion.

I gave it up too.

Somone hacked my account and posted as me, so I had the moderators ban my IP.

I am proud to say that I am no longer addicted to that place. Mr. Green

Haven't gone to that extreme (?) yet, but it's been way over a month since I've been there, I think.
