Is “The BBQ Pit” a Harbinger of the End Times?  
To answer your question, yes. Historically, human beings have treated each other with utmost courtesy and kindness. The internet produced the Pit, and the Pit has produced brutality and chaos that will soon reduce civilization to nothing but crazed hordes typing insults at each other.

Yep. And then there are the trolls like me who live for this kind of crap. 😃
