I give up Shades. Even if you beleive the "worst" it does't excuse the vile and petty remarks flung about at MAD. Cruel and nasty ad hominem, especially about one's physical apprearance are beneath contempt. Nevertheless they are stock in trade among some of those who see themselves as the holy elite of eternity. Its enough to make me wish there was an afterlife so I could enlist in the other side for a post-apocalyptic apocalypse.

Remarks from the MADites about others physical appearance? Wow! I know not what to say! Well I do.... but I won't. ;P

Blixa, I'll gladly enlist to be one of your minions.

What can I say. I guess I've been dealing with mopologists for so long that I've become desensitized to the abnormality of their behavior.

And perhaps we become that which we most fear or hate.

Yeah, leave that introspection stuff to the self-improvement crowd.

I just realized, back when this thread was about eating at the church office bldg. cafeteria, that I could have made a joke about a "COB salad." Esprit d' escalier, indeed.
