  - If the give the 6 months, I bet a law gets passed in time. -- nm - Spawn Sep 5, 08:51 4

      - I think you are wrong on this one. Trump finally went too far for the GOP. - Spawn Sep 5, 09:02 1

  - chawl. (smh...) -- nm - Diva Sep 5, 08:40 2
    - "have you tried turning it off and back on again" -- nm - iSpam Sep 5, 08:45 1
      - Hi! I am here to jiggle your cables. -- nm - Diva in a utility belt Sep 5, 08:46

Interesting story. The Secret History of Nazi Creek, Alaska -- (link) - decline Sep 5, 08:13
There seems to be a viral quality to unnecessary petty hostility. Case in point: all things pumpkin spice. Why does anyone GAF? - mara Sep 5, 08:11 11

    - I lay pumpkin spiced eggs from Sept 1 to Nov 1 -- nm - Golden Goose Sep 5, 08:36
  - In the specific case of pumpkin spice, that's part of it - "don't tell me what to like". But unnecessarily petty hostility being viral exists outside of that, -- (edited) - Roger More Sep 5, 08:30 2
    - to your IM, that's just social darwinism at work ... out of that shark pit the next Elon Musk will climb, probably wearing Adidas -- nm - rollo Sep 5, 08:36 1
      - For sure, and is a continuation of that social darwinism. Like mara says, it's viral and people do it because they see other people do it, and - Roger More Sep 5, 08:45
- It facilitates social bonding. "You hate pumpkin spice and are annoyed by the people who get excited by it? Me too!" - Roger More Sep 5, 08:19
- People are idiots. Pumpkin spice is a wonderful flavour for warm coffee beverages. -- nm - Shaun Sep 5, 08:14 2
  - meh -- nm - decline Sep 5, 08:14 1
    - Such petty hostility. -- nm - Shaun Sep 5, 08:16

      - Ours closed August of 2015 and nothing took the place. - Spawn Sep 5, 09:01
