On another note, this feels strangely like a Catholic confessional booth. Care to give me a penance?

It would be interesting to see how your and my definitions of "crossing the line" compare. What upsets me are posts that disrupt threads and posts that impolitely attack other posters. I am all for polite disagreement. Extra points for being funny about it.

Yeah, well, I'm thinking I already crossed it. I tried to be funny, there was a picture! Not exactly what you were hoping for I'm sure. I just can't "politely" disagree with some people....generally I limit that to racists and bigots...I suppose the poster in question might be a bigot if I stretched the meaning a bit. Anyway, I'll be good from now on, swear.

I wanted to start a .gif war but I'm not sure how to put those in. That would have been much funnier.

Yeah, you were pretty far over the line. I'm sure that emotionally, that was pretty satisfying. But, from a strategic point of view, I'm sure the person with whom you were arguing feels that she owned you. Next time, lower the volume but sharpen your wit.

It's a bit like Hotel California, so if you go there we may never see you again:

I must be a wuss....I bail out LONG before a thread reaches 20 pages.

I'm sure she does feel like she won, but I'm not sure someone like that every thinks they've lost. She's a little loca in la cabeza. Anyway, I made nice (not with HER). Thanks for not banning me.

what gets you banned? where is the line? where's the fun if you can piss people off every once in a while, or screw with their heads?

if you really cared about keeping everyone civil, we'd all need user names. and that's ok.
