If so - how did you feel?

I wonder how all those people felt about that one...

Silly, like a non-reading kind of bear.
I've also taken MM's things far too seriously.

If so - how did you feel? | Yeah I got sucked into the Hummer parody about gun control and a few others.

OT is full of garbage threads (I'm trying to think of an example. I know there's one REAL close....). The reasoning behind the posting doesn't make them any worse than those who are really trying.

I actually went looking for information and talked to a couple of people and got contact information. Then I realized it was just another one of his threads.
I don't know if I've even opened one of his threads since then.
