Sometimes the ".org" is taken so they opt for the ".com" instead ...

You realize that's a TOS violation, right?

Nah, they can just vary the name. Not an excuse.

No one called YOU a troll. Guilty conscience?

Pet peeve: People that can't handle different opinions

Pet peeve: When someone takes your post the wrong way and you explain yourself but they still take it the wrong way.

If you initially take my post the wrong way, that's no big deal. Misunderstandings happen. But if you still misunderstand the post after I explain what I really meant, that peeves me.

After reading the last 10 or so pages I just have one thing to say.

If all of the old goats here knew as much now as we thought we did at 19, we would all be freaking geniuses.

The profundity of such a statement will no doubt be registered in the annals of history.

Who brought what on him/herself? Whatever, your "debating" expertise is so far out there as to be laughable. Sorry, kiddo.

So report it. You're a big boy, old enough to be a contributing CD member, so report what you think needs reporting. Just click on that little warning triangle top right of every post and register your complaint.

Next peeve?

People who claim a disorder is not real without having done any research whatsoever on it.
