This time of night gets pretty slow around here.
I keep posting in GD and LBN and rarely get a reply. I keep checking my posts.....nothing. Oh I may get one or two responses out of 20 posts. Maybe the mods are off too and this won't get moved to the lounge where no one will talk to me.

9. Well I doubt they "suck".. but I'll keep an eye on you to verify. *grin
And if suckage is there...well I'll try to find a polite way to say as much.

12. I was in the NRA but I haven't been a prostitute.
Let's hope I could be a better hooker than I was at shooting a rifle. :-)

But perhaps if I had been a crack shot with a rifle I might have turned out differently.

18. That's a good one.
I pro-choice but I miss the throngs of children during the Baby Boom years. It's like the Pied Piper has taken them away and life just isn't the same...

30. I babysat for 25 cents an hour and had to do housework as well
while I was babysitting. I am intimately familiar with cheap labor.

25. Oh, yes, and I get personally attacked as well.
My surefire flame war starter is to say that sex outside of a relationship is deviant.

27. Oh, the religious hypocrisy I've seen!
It was too evident to me at too young an age for me to be a believer.

14. don't worry about it

People do read your/our posts. A lot of the 'replies' I get are nonsequitors.

Sensible posts don't get many replies. The really emotional and mildly kooky stuff gets loads.

46. sorry guys
I'm not a boozer.

Yet. ;)

When I turn 21, maybe it will be a different story, though. I'm lucky enough to have an upscale liqour store about 2 blocks from my apartment here in Minneaoplis, so it's very likely that that is exactly what will happen in a year and a half.
