You can only repeat yourself so many times before it becomes recognized as an act of machismo.

Ha! Yes. And what else do masochism and machismo have in common? They’re often married to each other. 😃

😕😕 You know Una has her own message board, right?

Whether you call it grandiose is your call. Basically every Fortune 500 firm has a mission statement: most are nonsense. The one on the masthead is a good one. I understand Southwest Airlines has an effective mission statement as well.

Also, there is nothing mutually exclusive about using the phrase “fighting ignorance” as a snarky zinger **and also** taking it seriously as a call to action when some doofoid wanders onto the boards spouting something that we KNOW and can PROVE is ignorant bullshit. Hey, irrepressible obsessive know-it-alls need a purpose in life too, you know.
