edited to apologise to my TB family and to RalphL for taking out my frustration openly. I didnt know your Avatar was a hockey player, it was bad judgement on my end to open a thread about it. I'll always be the one to speak up, and this is not the first or last time I'll open mouth and insert foot. Peace hommies.

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Mar 2010 Location: Houston, TX | | | Too many gigs to count what does that have to do with anything? So because I decided to say something then I'm a bad guy and everyone is on my case now? Give me a break. I didn't say anything offensive to RalphL, just asked him to change his picture.

EDIT: The guy is a hockey LEGEND. A little bit of sports blood is not gratuitous. Thicken thy skin.
This brings up the related subject of what I call the "entitlement of being offended". Everybody seems to be offended these days and they want to impose their views on others. They feel entitled to such control. Such an atmosphere has brought on political correctness on steroids. Enough.
Having said that, some things are universally offensive, like 4chan.

On a good note I made a post that got everyone involved!
(thinking positive)
Again, sorry I didnt just PM. Wasnt trying to be the "morality police", Lord knows I don like people telling me what to do. I over reacted. Im not sorry for saying something about it, I am apologetic for saying something openly and should have PM'd.
