This post was monumental

I would say that 99% of those people said thanks and went and posted in the right sub from then on. Only a couple were ever challenged enough to keep doing the same thing over and over and then feel persecuted when I (and others) keep pointing them in th right direction.
Perhaps, it didn't come across this way, but I was 100% joking with you @Tcoat. I do not feel slighted nor persecuted, but I thought it would be funny if I sounded as though.

Honestly, you helped me a lot when I first started here, and I thank you for it.

Maybe I'm just not as funny as I think I am. I tend to try to joke my way through any(every)thing.

Anyway, I have nothing but for you sir!

I would just hug you right now if I could...C'mere!

I'm more of a stoic, act like I'm serious, type of joking aficionado. I could put a disclaimer as a signature that 50% of what I say I'm joking, the other 50% I have no idea what I'm talking about.

That could work.

Well, iManage, the way I read @Tcoat 's post was that he was just trying to remind you that the forum rules are that we not discuss religion or politics.

I just tried to reinforce this.

Can you imagine what this forum would turn into without some rules ......

But thinking about it, and deciding yes and no, back and forth, I just want to get it out of the way!

Also, honestly, I have no car friends, so it'd be cool to meet people that are in to cars.

But that's a ridiculous amount of miles, plus, like you said, standing in the sun for hours...Brutal. I'll probably just put it off. I need to get it done though quickly.
Anxiety sucks. Use CBT and ACT. Or lorazepam.

People who are into cars suck. I'm awful, and I'm into cars.

No, you misheard. They offered butter so they could get into you in your car.

If we don't fix the way the votes are counted and who counts them, you will lose your freedom of speech completely and a lot of other things you take for granted - like AIR CONDITIONING.
Polls are flawed, but they're no joke. Useful metrics. As for the way votes are counted, I've not seen or heard of a problem. I've read about plenty of voter suppression, and there were some hanging chad issues, but there's no problem with actual fraud.
