DainBramaged appreciation thread
I just have to take a moment to appreciate so many of the opionated threads this person has posted, even though I have not agreed with all of them (but I have agreed with almost all of them).

I respect the hell out of DainBramaged and was really touched by some of the posts he has made recently, and appreciate the guts it takes to have these opinions.

For no reason in particular, I just felt like honoring this person tonight. I admire his convictions and ways of expressing himself.

23. He put me on ignore years ago :)
So he won't see this :p The funny thing is I'm a TBI survivor myself AND FELLOW DEMOCRAT so we have some big stuff in common!

Bad as my memory is I sometimes wish it was even worse because I get my feelings hurt so often by strangers online fighting with me over nothing.

I may be an acerbic prick but I won't stand for anyone bashing Labor or the remnants of our manufacturing base.


Thanks for the love. :loveya:

29. DainBramaged was there for me when I needed it most.
Last Feb. my son had a Tumor removed from his head and DainBramaged was one of about a dozen DUers who wrote to me offering support.

For that I'll always be grateful.

Wish I could Rec this a few hundred times.

32. If it has to do with anything other than the auto industry yes, in terms of the auto industry he
is a jackass.
