Are there truly 'cliques' at DU?
I guess I'm not in any clique, cuz I really don't see any. In fact I'd be hard-pressed to even identify one!

My delicate sensibilities were prepared to be very offended.

edit: Wait, you had a big spelling error, and were afraid your carefully constructed wisecrack would be neutralized by my picking of nits? You have a lot to learn, grasshopper. I make use of the 'My Posts' function!

4. A few
But they tend to be more polarised camps in certain forums, such as the I/P issue, the pro/anti gun people, the mystics vs skeptics in the Meeting Room.

Hey, waitjestadoggoneminnit, there's a "gay greens" clique, and nobody invited me? :cry:

Oh, well, geniph, you can join the Quintessential Queer Clique. It's a big tent. ;)
