  • You have to have a tough skin and a big sense of humor to survive on sites like this.  Not easy ...

  • I am neither long term nor newbie anymore, however I was never scared off.   This is survival of the fittest.  If someone is so weak to be scared off then Bye Felicia, as they said in "Friday"

    I do think some of the regulars have been unduly harsh on so-called "newbies".  I know a number of people who have been put off too by the hate and rather extreme rhetoric of some of the political discussions on here.

    Good riddance to those turkeys but they should not be put down for their inferior grammar usage.

    It's not the fact that TRUMP sucks, its people putting down typos and grammar all the time.


    We KNOW Trump sucks and if anyone does not think so?  They need to get out of this very hot kitchen.

  • Tell it, Nice Teeth.   There has been no hate, so whiners, pull up your big people pants, grab a hankie, and be a grownup.

    Really?, Do you find calling people names and saying they are not welcome here over their political beliefs to be respectful.

    I will edit my post it is not easy to understand. I was saying No.  (As in No you are wrong) Trump supporters are welcome here. 

    I am an unapologetic Trump supporter.

    Hello M2C
    I was replying to your comment to Tom Jackson about members following the rules of respect, to which I honestly see very little of. I do not find it to be respectful when instead of debate, we, as Trump supporters are basically just called names and essentially told to " get out of the kitchen"...
    I refuse to even attempt debate on this site anymore because of the lack of civility and the constant, "I am so much smarter than you because I think one way and if you don't agree you are worthless"...

    No.  If this site scares off someone, they were a thin-skinned little snowflake and might be happier somewhere like Fluther.

    I used to think I could take it but more and more - I don't recall things here or anywhere else becoming as bad as they have more recently - I just don't know if I have a thick skin.  I can't spend time on here without feeling discouraged or ending in tears.  Its like everything I have always held dear gets trashed and discarded.
