Ofc you do get the ACTUAL anti-whomever crowd as well, so it's natural at certain points we lash out a bit.

Tbh I'm not even sure why I pulled you up on it, my only excuse is it's been a long day of a fuckton of niggling issues I've had to sort out here there and everywhere, and I'm not in my usual does-it-really-matter mode lol. If it's any consolation I only noticed because it was unusual for you #manhug #nohomo

This part:


I think there's a mild mass-hysteria (oxymoron I know) that's being going on a few years now with every cunt trying to get in on how hard done by they are and how 'shit scared' they are (gimme a fucking break lol) because of person x, or outside influence y, or collective-wrong-team z. If Hillary got in it'd be just the same but in reverse, and whoever gets in next it'll be just the same as well.

Strange old times we live in where on a board full of supposed self-employed entrepeneurs, that so many outside things wield so much power over the participants here. Interest I get, fixation is just bizarre to me (hi 2muchmark and co).
