I'm not sure TD has ratified suffrage for your kind in these polls just yet.

Brethren(*), in honor of this peace initiative I have installed a new avatar for my account. Enjoy.

Very nice avatar, my brother.

The Queen does not need your ratification. You are just lucky I let you eat cake once in a while.

Good point, but I am not substituting in this instance. I genuinely like it.

Are you my wife?

Some of the prime provocateurs of bitchin posts are silent. Some that add to the bad vibe and still posted on this thread must not realize they come off as mean and nasty and thus continue the bad vibe.

Are you my wife?

 

There was a very bad way to take that comment in respose to eating cake.

I'm all for more civil discussion, but I hope we're still able to tell an idiot he's an idiot.

Of course. How else will they know?

It should be noted that I voted no because I feel like I have been very civil in my time on this site and feel no need to be any more civil going forward. I am surprise by how many people voted yes. Shame on all of them for not being civil enough to this point.:s-chainsaw:

Of course. How else will they know?

It's more fun if we keep it from you.

Here's an idea: whoever can go the longest without getting sucked into a flame war over insignificant trivialities gets to be the opening day starter.

I am having physical therapy to deal with pericapsulitis in my shoulder. But if the choice comes down to me or Correia, then I am willing to go out there for the good of the team.

But sometimes you just can't fix stupid, no matter how hard you try.

I'm with you here by the way Glunnie, all the way.

Thanks, old friend and now my brother. Your posts have greatly added to the richness of this site and I have enjoyed our camaraderie. Your posts made it easier for me to get through the disappointments of last season.

 

That reminds me. It's easy to make friends on this on this site if you are open to the idea. And you can passionately disagree and debate yet remain friends.

I feel like this gets overlooked far too often, my brother

You're an idiot. Now go sit in the corner and play with your toys.

You forgot to say "my brother".

I know, bro, I was just funnin' ya. It was a chance to use the emoticon I had recently said was my new favorite.

I'm not feeling any of this love and mutual respect.

Feel it from me. I genuinely consider you as my brother. We are part of an elite minority of Twins fans who get to read some of the most insightful articles ever written. Yes, in the forums we sometimes have to wade through mud to get to the green grass, and sometimes there is unnecessary bickering, but we choose to be here, together.
