»Secondly, most of the people here share a similar hobby set. We're more alike than different. Like you know, being batshit crazy enough to play FFXI for years. When you remove most of us from shitty politics & religion you can find me agreeing with Nausi and Aman on beer choices or other idle musings. I'm sure we all probably could find more common ground. Politics and Religion by nature are contentious and feed into a tribal mindset.
Not only that, but we are more civil towards each other, even with differing mindsets, than any other forum out there, especially ones that talk about P&R.
I think Ramy is full of ***when it comes to unions, but I would gladly have a beer with him and talk about it. Probably wouldn't even get as heated in person than on this forum.
Vic is a Clinton fanboy through and through, but really, he isn't so bad. He even likes the Spurs, and that's a big plus in my book.
Pleebo is gung-ho about climate warming, and good for him. I'll still attend his wedding with Pablo if he invited me (protip: don't. I don't want to give you a wedding present).
Kojo is Oklahomian.....and I can't find anything good to say about him. Probably wouldn't punch him in the face if we ever met, that's something?
Josi....well.....I'll give him a burrito.
Point is, we may seem uncivil towards each other, but in reality, I think we all could be good friends if we met in RL. Have to go outside first, so *** that.
