Wow, that text color is hostile, especially on this background.
By the way, I was outraged to discover that the management of this forum is not nearly as committed to free speech as they claim to be:
I forgot about Flash a decade or two ago, if that's the Flash I'm thinking of.

We should also denounce the vast right wing conspiracy and the godless left. We should make clear explicit connections to Hitler, Trump, and the Bidens. We should call out demonic darkness, demons, and witchcraft and spirits of OT wicked characters. We should create a fundamental lost of doctrines with which everyone must agree if they are real Christians. We must not associate with fake news, fake media, or fake Christians.
I was unironically on board with most of this until the part about wicked people from the OT. It went downhill from there.
Your SECOND post in 2022! :blah: My goodness. Interesting choice.

PeterG,
do you think this 2022 season leading up to Christmas might be The Most Hostile/The Grouchiest in forum history?
It could be a 2-part question, MD+MN History, or just MN. In my mind, it’s at least a contender. :?

Does anyone recall “The MD Awards” threads? MD had numbers of for-fun and oddball topics.

An emoji for Jack the Ripper; Rasputin; Hitler; Saddam Hussein and Al Capone for relevant commentary.

I was actually trying to make the text itself flash, as in the annoying staple design element of late-90s/early-00s websites. I thought about it partway through that the [flash] tag was probably intended for Flash as in the uh, other annoying staple design element of late-90s/early-00s websites. But in a thread like this I wasn't about to let a little thing like the facts get in the way of making unfair insinuations against the powers that be.
