While we're at it, I don't really like cats, can we ban avatars with cats in them?

Perhaps "The Crucible" should be required reading before being allowed to post

Yes, there are rules at this site. I happen to appreciate them and try to abide by them. Well, most of them.

But where does it end? If my avatar was the logo of my political party of choice, how can that be inappropriate???

And yes, I am old enough to vote. I work hard for my money, and I've got one of the best jobs in the country - and I love it.

Well, I have said what I needed so I think I will back out of this thread. Headed in the wrong direction and I promised to behave.

Thanks mods for any support! If not, ehh - life does go on

It's just like posting a comment about what political party you believe in without really doing it. Like a loophole in the rules. And making political statements here is a no no.

This country lives off of loopholes!

....sadly enough.

I may not be old enough to vote, but I actually do give a rat's ass about the next four years of my life.

I've thought for many years that the voting age and drinking age should be the same.

And the drinking age should not be lowered....

There is a huge difference between the maturity levels of a 18 year old and a 21 year old. Well, let me rephrase. There *should* be.

I'm starting to think that perhaps political avatars should be on the no-no list. Sadly the abuse by a few can ruin things for the mass.

Aaron · 10-07-2008, 01:59 AM

Well, now I have an xkcd avatar.

dadkins · 10-07-2008, 02:00 AM

Is anyone offended by trig? Or is that frowned upon since it's the name of Palin's son?

I've never liked math other than the basics.
