jsisabella's post is indeed relevant, and as he (like me) is one of the "old timers" on this forum should be taken with more than a grain of salt. However I tend to overlook the metaphors and abbreviations and absorb the meaning of the text.
I think most current forum members are the educated kinder thoughtful types :lol: that are willing and eager to express themselves, some quite creatively.
It's not the same world as it was even 25 years ago and the younger generation rotates in circles different from the ones a lot of us more seasoned :cry: veterans remember. Phrases that we would have considered vulger or demeaning then unfortunately are the norm today.
