Petty Spats Thread

The "It's Friday" thread, which was otherwise a fun respite from the arguing and pettiness, has become simply another opportunity for bickering, insults, personal vendettas, and posturing, among other things. Many many threads are infected with these maladies. This is an invitation to bring all of that crap into one thread, and to try to keep it out of the threads that were otherwise an opportunity for peaceful coexistence.

Regards,

D-Ray

Where the hell did Pete go anyway? We need that Buckeye state penchant for wise, prudent council to be felt again here at PC!

Food for thought:

In the course of a day, if you run into one person you think is an @sshole, chances are he/she probably is.

OTOH, in the course of a day, if everyone you run into seems to be an @sshole, chances are you're the @sshole.

But nevermind that...how intersting that this goes on for days as I remain uninvolved, but one post from me in support of Rob, and the management is suddenly all over it.

But I have experience on one or two boards with a no holds barred forum (one where the whole place was no hold barred, and was great fun), so OK...the Petty Spats Thread...I'm your huckleberry.*

*Tombstone (1993), Val Kilmer as Doc Holiday. Hopefully this will satisfy the petty plagiarism police.

What on earth gave you the idea that this was directed at you?

I though it was pretty good too. But I have to go now, I just dislocated my shoulder patting myself on the back.
