    I don't think it will get that bad.

      Perhaps not, but with the way things are going so far, it seems as if it will. Daily, the fighting posts increase in both quantity and intensity. 

      Approximately half of the utter nonsense questions I post are part of my personal quest to provide a break in the monotonous fodder of political backbiting.  I know I’m swimming against the tide, too.

    I agree with Thriftymaid that it won't go completely political, but it is definitely leaning in that direction.  Unfortunately, the problem is that there are only a handful of active members, not all of whom post questions, me included.  It seems to me that last year at this time, we had a more activity.

      You can think of some, amigo mío. Tengo fe en ti. (Translation: I have faith in you.)

      . . . “how” is?

    Concentrate, Welby, concentrate. On what you’re writing, that is! We all KNOW you have no trouble whatsoever concentrating on the guy in the picture!

    Got it.  :)

    Those types of typos kept happening to me last night. You didn't even see all of them that I caught before posting.  :)

    Perhaps I'm just not that inquisitive. :)

    I wish I could remember that question I thought up last week and forgot by the time I actually logged in.

    That happens to me all of the time. My best questions come when I smoke a special weed...but I forget them in five minutes. I have solved world hunger twice and climate change three times.

      I believe you’re correct on every point you’ve made.

  • I will continue to access this site on a daily basis, though I very seldom post answers to politically-related topics.

    I tend to be that way, too, avoiding posting on political matters.

    (I posted my answer before I saw your answer.)

    Thank you, Randy D - - thank you.

    I was thinking along the same lines a bit myself for several days, whether I'd keep logging in.
    I admit I can sometimes have challenges with conflict - - let alone, what I often see as downright nasty cruel meanness.

    I appreciate reading your question, Randy D, and I appreciate the three answers from Thriftymaid, SpunkySenior and Zack - I'm vaxxed BOI!!! ( three, at this moment when I'm posting). I always enjoy all four of you on the site.

    I hate conflict too.  I answer political questions sometimes, but arguing politics really isn’t my thing. This post was edited by Livvie at August 22, 2021 6:23 PM MDT
