My decision to semi-retire from GD a month and a half ago....
has worked out pretty well. Now I pick and choose my posts, I am not as thin-skinned and I do not get pissed over some random comment...


However, I am a little bored.

I should just jump in a fight one of these days simply for old time's sake. :evilgrin:

Is there a 12 step program for DU flame wars?

1. It's quiet here right now. Maybe we can start our own little flame war
just for practice.

I supoose we could develop a 12 step program instead.
I'll start.
1)If a post annoys you, wait a minute. Chances are good that a fellow DUer will jump into the fray and you don't need to do so.

7. All done!
For the summer anyway. Just finished up on thursday. Good feeling too. I wasn't too thrilled with my classes this semester. Sorta just went through the motions.

12. Spend an hour in Yahoo Politics chat room, before you enter GD.
GD will seem mild by comparison.
