I don't see any red dots in your rep power. I can't access your user cp of course,
 
because some people agree with you and some don't and that's how it is.

Nothing wrong with that. If you like expressing an opinion here at FC, get used to it.
That's the way of it!! :)
 
oh just think of it as a pretty rainbow beautifying your page.... I would say welcome to the club it's the norm. Unless someone calls you a name then that's a different story.

and I say keep on keepin' on! Say what ya want but don't get mad when some one doesn't agree.

If you ever read any of my posts, you'd understand what I mean.

Say what ya want, and say it often.

I don't see any red dots either. Just for the record, freedom of speech means that you can say (almost) anything you want. It doesn't mean people have to agree with you or that there aren't any consequences.

I don't see any red dots either... however, if you get them, wear them with pride because you probably earned them standing up for what you believe in. ;)

Personally I enjoy your posts and hope you keep being true to who you are. And if I should disagree I'll let you know... politely of course and without benefit of red dots.

Language... goodness, there has been some language on this board.

I dont care if people agree or not...that is not what i am saying....I am talking about people being too sensitive, too politically correct.....ok I'll just come out and say it....I CANT STAND HOLY ROLLERS...Has nothing to do with agree or disagree....just please people...stop being baby's if someone says something stronger than gosh darn!

I guess I'll take this as directed at me, since I was the one who removed the MF expletive from the post last evening. IMO, that's one of two items I will not accept, no matter how you type it to bypass the language filter.

Most adults I know can express themselves without swearing and using foul language.

For the record, I refrained from giving any dots, so they would all be from other members of the community.

oh I don't give a flying F if someone curses or goes a little on the nasty side on this board... Doesn't bother me one bit....so curse away! Have at it... lol


ETA: but there are repercussions to using such language...I for one don't really tempt fate that much nor do i want to find out said repercussions so I don't really use that language.

Ya know, i am realizing that I may have come on too strong...You are absolutely correct boss....I certainly can express myself without using that language....but........sometimes, for me, it's necessary....

P.S. I really do talk this way in person..I am not being fake...this is who i am...I can converse on many topics...but for whatever reason, I have a gutter mouth....

I'm sorry this is getting so much attention...I really dont do it for that reason....
 
I'm going to leave this thread alone for now, it's been a long dang day, and I do not want to do something I may not regret in the morning...

Ok, lets talk about me then. My battery died today and I had to walk q mile in 10 degree weather and then get the battery fixed and wah wah wah, I live in the freak'n Tundra and I look like Yukon Cornelious.
:ylinfant:
Ok and even though we all know its cold as hello here in MN, I saw some jacka** snowshoeing across lake Calhoun which is idiotic to say the least as he could easily fall through. There, I changed the whole subject.
