Totally agree. There was still the coffee shop element, though--but it wasn't the overwhelming tone.
Right - the coffee shop element was not the overwhelming tone.
Now, we can cry over spilled milk or we can move on. We will not change this forum. It is what it is. Each person can add whatever element they want, choose to participate or not.
I believe we will always have very good pockets of discussion here and then there is Facebook. I have a whole different group of people there and I like it! I love to compartmentalize my life and friends.
Some people like controversy, and being contrary with others. No matter what the subject.

Hello, Facebook?

Stew,
You and I have never been angry or taken potshots when we have disagreed! Have we? I can't remember...
No, seriously, I enjoy talking to you even when we disagree for that very reason. I don't think the potshots and anger are necessary and without them one might (*gasp*) actually learn something.

Don't be angry. I want my AFF friends here and my other peeps on Facebook. If I change that, you will be the first to know.
Some days this place drains me and I just want to walk away for a while. I hope you understand what I am saying. I don't mean to be rude.
If I could change that part of me, I would - but I can't. I've been that way all of my life. My husband is used to me, so there is hope for others. LOL!

So, you are saying that I have never taken potshots at you in a personal way? Just checking....
