> [@Try2B\_Comprehensive](#): > > I almost see what you did there. That’s a famous rebuttal- “I disprove it thus! [kicks rock]”, but I can’t remember to what. Care to refresh my memory? _After we came out of the church, we stood talking for some time together of Bishop Berkeley’s ingenious sophistry to prove the nonexistence of matter, and that every thing in the universe is merely ideal. I observed, that though we are satisfied his doctrine is not true, it is impossible to refute it. I never shall forget the alacrity with which Johnson answered, striking his foot with mighty force against a large stone, till he rebounded from it - “I refute it thus.”_ - _The Life of Samuel Johnson, LLD_ by James Boswell ---

omg, you fucking morons (not all of us – they should know who they are), I don’t give a flipp’n shit where you live, unless what you’re posting is geographically relevant. Like, weather mainly, or maybe traffic reports, or say state or local laws/ordinances or anything else that is – now listen – GEOGRAPHICALLY RELEVANT. I know some people here get it. Has anyone else, who has posted above with confusion about this, gotten it now? Truly, I think, my last post to fight ignorance. If you can’t get this, fly away because really you can’t help. ---

The best Mexican food I have ever had is just 2 miles east of me. And its dirt cheap. Thought you should know. Let me know when you are in town and I’ll take you there myself. Just look me up when you get here. Just don’t try to call me when I’m at work. ---

> [@Northern\_Piper](#): > > Actually, I like a good blizzard. Of the non-DQ variety. They’re fairly common in my neck of the woods, and I find them rather cozy. When there’s a raging blizzard (no such thing as an ordinary blizzard), I remind myself that without them, I’d have to turn my shoes and boots upside down and shake them every time I put them on. And no one’s houses have termites, thanks to raging blizzards. Same when it’s sunny and so cold 200-year-old trees snap in half. ---

> [@tapu](#): > > I pit those who post with no indication of their geographical location, in a thread that is meaningless without that. For example, if someone tells me they’re getting an unexpected blizzard, I’d like to know if they’re in Chicago or Boston or Birmingham. > > There is a spot for your location (as specific or general as you like) in your profile that will show up in your posts every time. If that makes you nervous, at least give a general idea of location in your post. > > Does this bother no one else? Makes me want to break a window. :mad: And here and now in Maine, that would be disastrous. with you 100%. The worst are those who think they’re being clever with jokes in the location field. Newsflash: you’re not. > [@jz78817](#): > > your location only shows up in your posts if you’re a member. it doesn’t do that for guests. Which is backwards. It should be a membership perk to be able to see locations, not to display one’s location. ---
