Well, perhaps you have observed something legitimate.

But I also have seen where anyone who disagrees with someone is automatically labeled as 'rude' or 'snotty' or whatever. And no, not just HERE, but all over the damn internet.

I think most threads are about fact, truth, you know, information. Given that, it is HARD to not disagree when someone is, or appears to be, wrong!

Anyway, we rib one another, but we are all friends, right?
