Or is that the person who is now posting under the name NanceGreggs?

Now I am totally confused.

Was it over when the Germans bombed Syria?

Even newbies. Try it for yourself with the beer money string plus other keywords.

Untyping it isn't possible so I just wanted to say I'm appropriately regretful.

Randome is OK with me!

Or is that adulation a little too unrestrained?

When a TV series starts delving into time travel or other self-referential themes, you know the writers are out of ideas.

When DU descends into posting threads celebrating other DUers (satirically or not), you know it's time to take a deep breath and find something else to do for a while.

Just relax and go with the flow, I actually do appreciate a lot of your input, you seem like a sincere poster to me even if we may disagree on some things.

But there is a lot of vitriol on many of the more recent threads. I don't consider myself the arbiter of good taste on DU but for what it's worth, that stuck out to me as...not healthy in general.
