Apparently this place has thoroughly run its course with you.

You're the one with the bizarre digestive issue here. I mean why on earth would someone subject themselves to the agony of dealing with such unsophisticated, tiresome nonsense?

I've been here since 2006 myself, and frankly, I'm tired of the incessant whining from folks who think they're somehow above it all. But then again, you probably won't see me posting an agonizing, puke-laden whinefest in retaliation. The day I get physically ill as a result of what I read here, I'm gone. So what?

Was glad to see Skinner chime in here. He made a number of valid points, not the least of which; expect some push-back if you're running around here threatening to withhold your vote for the Democratic nominee. It's always interesting to watch the verbal gymnastics involved in the effort to preserve one's posting privileges.

Good luck with your "condition."
