rburgInjecting politics in to non political threads ( for the fourth dam time)
The hell with Bendable, he's so damn sensitive. Now we can't even name our president without him getting all offended. He should toughen up and accept the good with the bad.

ensigmaticI'll be damned (or is it dammed?) if I can suss out what thread it is to which bendable is referring.

Srsly?
1. That was
your thread, not bendable's. 2. Referring to that as "injecting politics" would be like calling a passing lawyer joke in a thread "injecting legalities."
(Btw: "Disgraced" was an unnecessary adornment, IMO
.)

bendableThank you az4783054, and. 12131, nice catch . Everyone who has to have politics, knows 11 websites, seven TV stations and 5 blogs to go to,. For those of us that are no where that! Interested, we come here to get away from it. I don't think that it's too much to ask.

"Who's" is a contraction of "who" and "is."
Example: "Who's going to clean up this mess?"
"Whose" is the possessive version of the word, "who."
Example: "Whose lives are consumed by politics?"
"It's" is a contraction of "it" and "is."
Example: "It's turning into a political shit fest again."
"Its" is a possessive form of the word, "it."
Example: "Here's bendable's point: Bendable thinks it's not the forum's agenda to be all about politics all of the time. Its agenda is to be much more all inclusive than just politics."
But, some of us grammar nazis get a warped kick out of teasing others - not meaning to be offensive.
I found what you said riveting.

An excellent point, which I may find useful down the road.
Please feel free to use this feature as necessary when you find discussions related to politics/diction/whatever occur in threads initiated by Woodman/you/whomever.

No, but it may be too much to ask somebody to not inject politics into a non-political thread when it was their thread too start with and what they injected wasn't actually political. (Assuming woodman was correct in answer to my query.)
