Don't call it, Skinner

I honestly don't understand. There were at least 2 threads I saw about "calling it". And they were supposedly from Bernie supporters.

I remember some weeks ago I got really annoyed at the nonsense being posted, some very ugly, but someone mentioned "ignore" and it is a godsend. There were loads of nonsense posts that hurt the brain to even try to read, let alone try to understand and reply to.

But now, when I see someone who seems to me to be putting out nonsense without any intention to finding out some truth, I just ignore them.

After a while, the whole forum looks great. Only the lively, wonderful people are there and they have many great ideas and funny thoughts and pictures.

I haven't been here as long as many of you have, only a few months compared to the years some have been here. But this place is great and it is hard to think of how much I have learned. People have posted so many good sources and articles and thoughts. Wow!

So, I totally disagree with a few people trying to spoil it for everyone else. If they feel so passionately, then they should step back for a while, do some outdoors activities, walk in the woods. I walk in the woods for an hour every morning with my dog. Do a google earth for your area and find some large tracts of woods and there are usually 4-wheeler trails. . Enjoy the outdoors. It clears the mind. Don't allow yourself to get so run down you don't enjoy any more.

Thanks all.

I would love to partake in it you know.

Oh I forgot, we're in a constitutional oligarchy, the peasants are taken off the voter rolls and have no say anymore.
