FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THINGS HOLY, IF YOU DON'T LIKE A TOPIC DON'T READ IT. However, if you just can't not read it...much like how you can't not look at the latest pictures of Lindsey Lohan, then DON'T RESPOND!

Rule 2: See Rule 1

Rule 3: Ignore idiots who post in all caps.

Carry on...

Nah...just tired and waiting to go out to dinner (one has nothing to do with the other though).

I've often found message boards to be fun...especially to watch people intentionally engage in behavior and conversations that they know makes them unhappy.

Of course, I also love stirring up the trouble from time to time myself...

Time to go get my 'cue on!

Agreed. Where in the world are Rob's old rules.... and further a willingness and healthy tolerance for disagreement and civil discussion in our democracy?

We are a unique community with a shared passion of these beautiful islands. We live in a democracy for the time being. Let's embrace our Constitutional right to disagree on Skinny's, car rental outfits and politics...and say so. If you decide that you cannot be friends with those who disagree with you on restaurants or politics so be it.

The problem is that it seeps into the other side of the forum.

People get short quick based on political discussions, even when talking about car rentals etc.

Anthony made himself clear though, all's fair I guess.

I always read the first couple pages, I'll continue to chuckle, silently :wink:
