I spend the odd moment perusing bookshops, and I can't help but notice how many books they have in there, compared to the interwebby...Am I missing the point? Do I need to "go to the Library", in the vernacular?

I truly believe we would all live longer if we just learned to read a little...

I think you are right. It is getting a bit serious. There is nothing wrong with a bit of friendly baiting. But when it gets to threats (wether they be jokes or not) it is getting out of hand.
Also remember that over the interwebby you cant note voice tones, or notes. So nobody knows wether you are being serious or not.

The first step on the long slippery slope to serious is having discussions about "are we too serious"? Crazy

As for that other site, yes, if watching groms anonymously type swearwords at each other turns your crank then more power to ya. Smile

Well yes and no. It's a site where bikers (oo-er!) come to talk bikes for sure, but also to talk tihs and vent (healthy) spleen about a myriad of subjects. Is that still okay?

Also the posterohw thread was becoming a bit serious... Crazy
