2024's Favorite CCW? | PSA Micro Dagger

Posted: 5/31/2001 3:38:28 PM EDT

Does anyone else see this place as not unlike sitting in our host's living room and shooting the bull? It (the site) is provided for our enjoyment, free of charge, but with certain minimal rules concerning conduct. I would not spit on the living room carpet, pee in the potted plants, or use vulgar language in the presence of the ladies. Why is this place different than a real living room? Our host is a dignified man with a sense of decorum and decency (thank God!) and he wishes this to be a somewhat civil place with great latitude allowed, if not abused. Why dare or force him to react? Trolls can't be helped, but regular serious members should be respectful. Anyone who wishes to have a cesspool site is free to have one--somewhere else. Again, we are guests here, and should act accordingly, IMHO.

"pee in the potted plants"

This is of course dependent upon how much beer the host has.

It would be nice, wouldn't it, if we could just send the children downstairs? Since we can't, what do we do? Try and shush them ourselves? Tsk tsk them? Just ignore them?

We are all guests here, and if we act in a fashion that does not suit our host, we can be asked to leave or be forcibly ejected.
Is this different than any bar that you have ever been in?
Is this different than any ones home that you have ever visited?
The ground rules for participation on this site are clearly posted for all to see, and there is no excuse for non compliance.

That said, I add also "FREE McUZI"

He's like Otis.
You know how he is going to act, and you know what is going to happen, but the show just wouldn't be the same without him.

beekeeper,

It means exactly what it says.

Shoot informants:Snitches, tattletales,turncoats,traitors,informers and the like

Not drugs: pick your poison

Remember the old slogan from the anti drug campaign,"Hugs, not drugs?"
Merely a different slant on an old theme.
