From the times I have visited the Rants and Raves section, it should have been named the "Fight Club". :thumbup:

I say that affectionately so, please, no one kill me.

Like most things messageboard, the resident "debate" forum evolves and changes over time. Perhaps it's the political year, and at least part of it is due to the influx of new people (after a year or so of fairly steady "regulars") but it definitely has a different tone than I've seen it have in... oh, 4 years or so.

I was most fond of RnR when it served mostly for mental stimulation. Prior to that, it really wasn't even used all that much. We had good, honest, courteous and smart debates. The occasional feather might get riled, but for the most part it was a good time. Then it took a turn toward the personal side, and for a while became "Rant and Rave about this person or this group." Then it became mostly nonsensical for a while. Then general/personal gripes. I'm sure we'll hit a few more evolutions and then find ourselves full circle.

We can only dream.........................

I love Laughing Cow cheese. I certainly don't want Grumpy Cow cheese.

Does laughing cow cheese come from California, where the happy cows live?

Well if they are happy cows, they should laugh...so I'd say yes lol

Let's rename the R&R section "Helen".

"Helen" ?????????

I like Helen too!!!:confused_smile:

WHO IS HELEN??!!!! :confused_smile:

I think he was just being funny and changing the name to Helen, not that there is a Helen or is there?

WHO IS HELEN??!!!! :confused_smile:

I'd be ok with "Susan", if it would make the angry face go away.

No, No, NOOOOOO, we do not want to change the name to "Susan"! Helen, I love Helen....Helen is wonderful.

No more angry faces here!

What about Sybil? She was that multiple personality person. I think they have a new fancy name for that disorder.

I have lorazapam. It's a central nervous system depressant. That's why it can cause depression. So is Xanax. I had to switch to lorazapam because Xanax made me feel horribly depressed if I took it. Lorazapam will do it too, but I have to take it more than once for it to happen. Xanex has an immediate"I hate the world and everyone in it" feeling when I take it.

LOL! That brought back a funny memory. Me and my mom nicknamed my sister "Sybil" a long, long, time ago. She was a pretty moody teenager and we thought the name was fitting, lol. Anyway, we called her that for quite a while. I'm just glad she outgrew all that moodiness, lol.
