    That's a great philosophy, and one that I follow also. Unfortunately, we're outnumbered by the media that are all about the almighty dollar. It's just funny when I talk to my 12 year old nephew, and he's talking about this stuff, which makes ME uncomfortable! Makes me feel like a stodgy old fart (I'm only 36, damnit!)

    There's a few of us still out there, but I do feel we're a dying breed man.

      I feel the same way. Did Volkswagon get it right: Lead, Follow or Get out of the way? I try to provide inspiration for the kids, leading by example, but sometimes it seems like a lost cause in this day and age. Now I know how my parents felt. :->

        Josh talks about condoms in the lounge and the idiots give him a 4.4, but for all things good with the world don't let anyone mention the word "Jesus" in the lounge. The sick bastards that do should be killed!! I mean, what if kids hear the word "Jesus"? I shudder to think. Really, it's sad to think that loser/dorks here that can't get laid and are obsessed with sex is the majority. God, did I ever pick the wrong profession to hang out with people with.

          Um, ok. I've been around the block a few times, but I don't think that makes it ok to post this stuff in the lounge.

                  I think more kids hear/talk about condoms in school than Jesus. What school did you go to?

                          You mean a male-dominated profession? I'm sure this place is tame & civilised compared to a construction site. ;P As for your rant in general - there is a bit of a gray area that comes down to a personal decision as to whether it abides by the PG rating. The fact is the Lounge is a place for jokes and light-hearted humour, and it's also a fact that sexual innuendo is humourous. Maybe it is an obsession for some, but mostly it's just typical male banter - which is one aspect that makes the Lounge a cool place to hang out. And so long as comments aren't explicit, they don't break the rules. But I guess that's just my opinion. You have yours, and you're clearly standing up for what you believe in.

                                    Yeah, I just think it's sad that we're supposed to be smart/enlightened programmers and all, and we're no more bright than a bunch of monkeys. When people say we can't we all get along here it really means see things my way. :sigh:

                                      Josh talks about condoms in the lounge and the idiots give him a 4.4, but for all things good with the world don't let anyone mention the word "Jesus" in the lounge. The sick bastards that do should be killed!! I mean, what if kids hear the word "Jesus"? I shudder to think. Really, it's sad to think that loser/dorks here that can't get laid and are obsessed with sex is the majority. God, did I ever pick the wrong profession to hang out with people with.

                                      Voting does not follow any kind of ratonale in my opinion. If a post has one 5 vote it is more likely that it will have another 5 and so on. At least that is what I have seen.

                                          It's amazing how some people consider sex to be taboo and "dirty." Why would someone be concerned about their kid sister reading about condoms. Is it now bad to know about safe sex? Anyone who was actually upset by my post needs to get a hobby.
