    It's hard though...especially when I got my neighbor playing their franchise across the street...maybe I will occupy myself with Glamore Magazine.

      It was harder to...confirm suspicions let's say...in the past, but fortunately/unfortunately they're doing a pretty good job at outing themselves in the present climate.

        Depends on what the discussion is. It's really good for specific games and sports teams. Stray away from those and you're wading in a cesspool really quick.

          Twitter is great for breaking news and some internet humor, but it's a shame how much toxic political "discussion" goes on there. There's almost no way to have any positive discourse given the limited character format.

            Yeah, I steer clear from any "general" subreddits like news, world events, politics, etc. The site as a whole definitely has a "bro-dude" type of attitude, but I have found the subreddits I frequent to be fairly friendly and genial.

              Twitter overrated, ya’ll.

              Y’all don’t need it. And that’s coming from someone that used to be on it somewhat regularly, years ago.

                  (I thought this was an obvious enough joke. I prefer Twitter because of the instantaneous nature of it, and truthfully yeah I like being able to not get curse words censored.)

                    I can't shave with my eyes closed, meaning each day I have to look at myself in the mirror and respect who I see.

                    I miss the old days of Operation Sports :(

                      Just go close down a bar and come back and type whatever is on your mind at 2 am. We won’t be able to decipher it anyway.

                        I enjoy the smaller groups of the internet like this forum and a few others places I frequent. Just don’t see any point in posting to the void of social media. The content and comments on Twitter, Facebook, Reddit are crazy...

                              re: Off-Topic

                              All social media gives you a warped and false view of what the majority of people are thinking. The population in the US alone is over 325M, but when something on twitter gets over 500k likes or reweets we're supposed to think that it's an overwhelmingly popular opinion or agreed upon statement. And the old media feeds into it because they are desperate. It's nonsense.
