Soc.singles is just full of flaming and angry-sounding people thisweek; can't you guys all just get along?

friendly conversations; a lot of people just enjoy being
obnoxious and feeling like they have a lot of power and are
really cool if they can piss other people off, especially if
they can get someone else to lose his or her cool and act like

roadkill isn't going to make them rethink their ways, it'll
only encourage them.

don't add to them; what you write is part of the newsgroup just
