I engage in debate here. That doesn't mean I'm changing my mind about much. Do you think most people here are changing their minds? No.

Not to mention, I'm almost 80 years old now. I'm not exactly still trying to figure out how I feel about things.

We have a LOT of people who don't engage in debate or discussion here but try to lob out sarcastic and funny digs at others, specifically people with differing viewpoints. That is my point...

I appreciate that you generally are here interacting and backing up your points (although I do question some of the tweets you post, but that's neither here nor there). I just think a lot of people need to think "does this add to the discourse?" before they hit the post reply button. Clearly I'm not the only one.

Note to MLB and Tom: I haven't posted but maybe one tweet since early October. Took too much time.

That has been over FOUR MONTHS.

Congratulations. Maybe you can have a chat with CP?

Like I said, that is neither here nor there. I just want, good, honest dialogue from everyone here. I know you didn't post it to troll someone.

It's funny that the ones who were attentive of my tweets never really noticed when I stopped.

I've thought about picking up the slack ever since I got back on X. Part of me doesn't miss it, but the other part knows I need to be on it so I ain't going anywhere.

(And yes, mlb, it would've been to spark conversation, not to troll. Of course, I can easily do that, too, if you want. )

Yep. And reasonable peeps here likely realize I wasn't trolling, I just wanted to generate conversation, b/c I have plenty of time and this place is entertaining, on a certain level.

But it just got to be too much work for the payoff.

At this point someone needs to say ....

assshole

This is getting too much of "I love you man"

(MLB thats a joke)

3A: Come on, man. You know I wouldn't say that unless I was actually pissed off.
