114. Of course, you could always
just stay away. I mean, if the site bugs you so bad. Why put yourself through it?

I do understand though. Every other thread is a "Let's complain about all these people speaking their minds" or "How dare you have an opinion about Democrats and come to this site to voice it". Golly but all this whining about civil rights and stuff is getting so old. Let's talk a lot more about how cool we are and stuff.
