Boy do I ever second the profanity part, Joe.

Now, this is not a prayer meeting, so it seems to me that a stupid idea deserves to be called stupid.... and, what are we trying to be, anyway, the mind police?

If a poster thinks somebody is acting like an idiot, it is poor judgement to insist that an opinion that someone is acting like an idiot isn't a valid opinion. If eat starts acting like an idiot in futr's opinion, I see nothing wrong with it being said. futr is entitled to that. Now, you can't use the n word or insult his character by comaping him to someone like arch. You need to avoid vulgarity and cussing, IMHO, but I draw the line at empowering anything even vaguely resembling the mind police.

We're all grownups, so I think we can avoid vulgarity, racism, and the like, but it is simply a fact that a person can act like an idiot and there is nothing wrong with someone else saying so, IMHO.
