That type of language sure does rank higher on the lame-o-meter

Jake- I'd like to give a shout-out to the overwhelming percentage of members that are decent people...and I include myself.

I've never met any of them in person, but they all have treated me with respect since I joined...and I try to do the same.

Sometimes, I decide not to 'join in'...frequently, less damage is done that way.

1-Everyone has an opinion. I couldn't possibly care less about most!
2- Leon- since JB is engaging me directly isn't he required to post his full name?

Hi Bob,
Jeff Betts was referring to the insulting language you said another member was using. It was not a comment directed to you. You are a sensitive one.

Come on Jake, you are way off base! This board is full of card dealers, attorneys, and, well...ok, maybe you are on to something. Just kidding of course. 15% of all populations are assholes. I made that statistic up, but I firmly believe it.

"Come on Jake, you are way off base! This board is full of card dealers, attorneys, and, well...ok, maybe you are on to something."

Now that's Funny!!!!!

I'm one of those attorneys, so I'm kind of used to the stupid, pointless emails telling me ridiculous and ignorant stuff. Life goes on. You shouldn't let idiots affect you. Idiots are everywhere, not just on this board. They can't dictate your life. That's my take.

I've been flamed here sometimes, and I've flamed people here. Hopefully you can either agree or agree to disagree respectfully. I have sometimes failed to do that, but that should be the goal IMO.

There are people on this board I detest, and who detest me. Fair enogh.
There are others on this board who I admire greatly. Whether I admire or detest them, I would hope that diversity helps keep this board strong. BS pms, IMO, reflect a coward, so that isn't on you. Its on them. If you have a problem, get it out there and up front so it can be addressed and don't be a chickensh*t about it. My take. Feel free to send me BS pms if you are a coward and can't do it up front. I will probably take the bait and respond.

Jeff thanks for posting your name. Just wanted to know who I was speaking with. I stand by my original statement that the person who sent the PM is either a Jackass or a mental midget that needs to get a life or find another hobby. Not sensitive at all. I just do not take kindly to keyboard bullies. At the end of the day these are just little pieces of cardboard.

Orlando I believe your estimation is on the low side!

I understand your confusion: 15% assholes is dead-on. However, I failed to mention that my theory does acknowledge another 15% of the population who are miserable and unhappy. While often displaying similar characteristics to the "asshole population," they are distinguishable.

No worries Bob, just having some fun with you guys!
Jeff
