I thought the subject had changed back to something more lighthearted? :p

Look! This wasnt about your point of view and/or opinions - I agreed with most of it.

Some of you are thinking I got pissed off because of said point of view/opinion. It wasnt that at all.

It was your last line that did it for me! Stubbs seems to think it was just a little sarcasm. Was it?

Now, if you go and check my posts you will see I do not oppose your opinion on the subject, ONLY your last line comment!

Doesnt that last line imply that if any parent here disagreed with you on your point of view/opinion, that you would see them as being on the defense - and therefore *guilty* of something?

*That's* what I was attempting to highlight - NOT your point of view or opinion on parents today but your dismissive last line comment.

This aint heavy, I just felt that it rather dismissive - 'tis all! :p

Yeah Newb!:p

This would be a good debate if it never got too personal

It wouldnt have got personal if certain people allowed a fair share of ideas instead of saying everyone else is wrong and others championing their control of the thread.

BTW Stubs, I added that comment to my post in response to Phan because I thought it was arrogant of him to do so and felt he needed it back at him. Keep supporting him though. And yes, this site has a dislike for newbs. You are just as bad as most, you just deny it more than them.

Of course we hate newbs..they take up too much closet space.!!!

How the hell can you so much as deny the fact that you took his comment way out of context.
By reading your response..it appears to me ..you were just looking for a debate..and pushing for an arguement.
Well..we here are sick of being accused as being portrayed as the assholes
just because our comments are too sharp or to the point
And besides..many of my bestfreinds are newbs..
and shit..if you found my 1st line offensive..then good for you..
em busy defending my right to a fair trial.

Fuck...you seriously feel as though you don't have the right to say whatever on account of being "new" here? Who fuckin' cares how new you are...if you've been buying into that for some reason, stop...I never once said anything like that myself...
re: what you said stub - I hope you didn't just relate her not being in complete unison with your views (or mine, you might've noticed) to some kind've dislike of newer members...if ever there's been another member here that's had fewer run- ins with anyone, new or not...I'd be surprised.
Not everything and everyone in life has to go your way...stop taking the world so personally. For someone claiming a right to an opinion you seem to be stepping on others right to make that choice for themselves.
Nothing to do with you being new or old...
