You guys are great, and I am not overly bothered. I have enjoyed the conversation as much as anyone.

Some interesting things were said in the last few posts, but I think I have said enough for one thread.

Thanks.

You've proven yourself to be completely ignorant about "punk rock," fake Peanuts guy.

You know that song about the brat? The brat, and the baseball bat? Was that song about teaching the brat how to play ball? Helping the brat join a team? Giving the brat a little self-esteem and teamwork and fair play?

Was it?

I think I need to change the batteries in my sarcasm detector, because I don't know what's going on with that. Please choose one as appropriate, because I can't figure it out:

a. :lol:
b. :roll:

Thanks.

i got confused there, too. the impression i got was that he was saying since you're talking about giving a shit about other people, you're not punk rock, because punk rock is about smashing people's faces and generally being an idiot, not about being thoughtful or socially responsible or something.

hrm.

I think I knew what he was saying, I just couldn't figure out if he knew he was wrong and was joking around, or if he really meant it. Some days I have a hard time with sarcasm and I'm afraid I'm gonna offend somebody.
