        confronted? -- nm - mud Jan 14, 14:26 3
        
        Eg over at HSX, there’s a bunch of regular pro-Trump posters. When I think of attitudes that need to be confronted, that’s what I’m thinking of. -- nm - Roger More Jan 14, 14:37 2

        Wait, really? - David Jan 14, 14:39
        
        Raising your blood pressure on ST does ...what, to fight Trump? -- nm - Reagen Jan 14, 14:19 1
        
        communing with my fellows should lower my blood pressure thus comforting my soul -- nm - mud Jan 14, 14:26
        
        Nah, just Costanza it. -- nm - Spawn Jan 14, 14:05

        That's fair. Still. -- nm - Reagen Jan 14, 13:22
        
        Yeah, be like me and have one over stuff that you *almost* can control! - Spawn Jan 14, 12:55
        
        You said "at least one" so it could just be American singular not Americans plural. -- nm - Brrrron Jan 14, 12:41
