[Hostility of middle east towards Israel and the west could lead to all out war - Great Debates - Straight Dope Message Board](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=672815) (To be honest, I laughed at his thread very very hard 😃 😃 😃 :D)

I don’t mean to be disrespectful towards him/her. I am sorry, if he is upset by this thread.

One November join date pitting another November join date? Now I’ve seen everything!

Not a troll. Just stupid, and too stupid to realize he/she is also ignorant.

Hey, is that what Green Day was talking about? I always assumed that song was about how 9/11 had negative repercussions that we still suffer to this day.

Hostility between November 2012 join dates is all time high!

Nah, not a troll… more of an orc, they’re smaller and softer. I got a laugh from the thread title alone, though.

Don’t worry about it too much. We had a vast influx of idiots, trolls and extremists join up over the summer to the point that anyone with a join date of May-August 2012 was suspect, but after the screaming and the bannings settled down there were about a half dozen good quality summer-joining posters left still here to contribute to the discussions.

You’re not responsible for what the rest of your matriculating class does. Just make sure that **you** are not the one bringing the average down and you’ll be fine.
