It’s not just about being opinionated. You actually need some facts to back it up.

I’m dying to hear you explain the difference between Pupovac and Vučić. And while we're at it, I'd love to know what kind of "logic" you're using to call Ms. Markić an unknown...☕

Look, it's not like we have some official rulebook handed out to us, so everyone's just kind of winging it based on their own gut feeling and the general forum rules. But personally? I'm definitely gonna flag a post if people start calling all Catholics "unknowns," but I'm probably not gonna go after someone for calling Markić an "unknown."

That analogy really gets me thinking about this:
-I can't go around calling all Orthodox Christians "Chetniks," but apparently, I can target someone like Pupovac?
Because if you look at how the logic works here, it's basically saying we can't call Catholics or Orthodox folks "unknowns" or "Chetniks," but as long as we're targeting specific leaders based on how we feel about them, it's okay?

Man, that first paragraph pretty much lays out my whole crime spree. Nice work on the effort there.

The start of your second paragraph proves my point about the first one, and the rest of it just shows you aren't really great at reading what people actually write—or mocking them, for that matter. At least try with authors and historical figures.

Yeah, whatever. Not sure why you'd care about me in an internet thread.

Well, congrats, you at least got the country right. Did you have to Google that?!

Exactly. My past isn't any of your business. Just worry about the future.

I think I'll wrap this up here. No hard feelings and no need for excuses, but I've got two loud-mouthed sons at home full of testosterone to deal with. I don't really need someone else to waste my precious minutes on every week.☕

Sorry I didn't get back to you sooner.🤷

Thanks for putting so much thought into the reply. I won't be complaining to anyone ever again... honestly, I wasn't even complaining now, I just wanted more people to see this.🤷

silentridge3 said:What’s the "approved" term we're allowed to use now for all those unconstitutional orders, regulations, and systemic moves by government agencies aimed at stripping away men's equality? Or even just the chauvinistic behavior from certain women, female associations, and those "special interest" groups targeting the male gender?>

Thanks in advance for the terminology.

Is it my turn?!

man-hater-lady🤷 man-hating laws, man-hating, maybe man-hater... actually, that last one kind of rolls off the tongue.😁>

stormylynx4 said:Admins, seriously, please just show up...
... I honestly have no clue who this quoted mod is or how they even handle their job, but if their main way of arguing is bringing up "those days of the month," then there's really no point in having them moderate this forum. If guys are asking questions instead of women, it’s not like I can just tell them they didn't masturbate this morning and stop them from bothering him unnecessarily. ☕

Please, let's not turn every single dilemma into a gender rights issue. The bottom line is the moderator just lacks basic communication skills, not to mention any sense of common decency or social grace. It doesn't matter if they're male, female, or non-binary.☕

Kevin Collins2 said:Where am I supposed to find some boards?

Back to square one?🤷

Honestly, who's gonna buy those old beaters? Just toss 'em in the fire and call it a day.☕

Nicholas King said:That's a weird choice—and honestly, just plain wrong.

What's even the point of the CIA?

And what about this Reddit page?! Seriously, what’s the value of those 16 million tips you drop every year or two on basically everything except maybe how shy ears can be productive enough to keep the folks at Pfizer getting their steady paychecks?

Maybe some admin will finally notice how "brilliant" you are and hand you a moderator gig. Just as long as it isn't here at the CIA, for God's sake.

Man, it's funny how people from those tiny fringe groups always end up whining about being bullied or insulted by the majority. Even though calling someone a total moron doesn't count as an insult coming from them. At least, not in my book.

It’s written pretty clearly, so I'll just quote it:

The guys' corner. For beer lovers, remote control addicts, verbal chauvinism, and all that other guy talk...

I mean, what part of that isn't clear?!

Depends on what you're actually looking for...
honestly, nothing beats the boost and performance I get from this brand😁;

Just slap on another row of tiles.🤷
Maybe hit it with some easy-to-clean oil paint, or go with the plexiglass idea if someone's actually suggesting that... just play it by ear.

Check out those DIY forums. You’ll find plenty of woodworkers over there who know their stuff.😁

Scott Howard74 said:Look, no matter how much it stings, just stop giving them the satisfaction. Once they realize they aren't getting a reaction out of you, they'll back off. We live in these crazy times now where kids feel like they can get away with anything, and then society has the nerve to point the finger at the parents. Back in the day, we all grew up with some kind of discipline—more or less—but nowadays? You lay a hand on them and suddenly you're being hauled off by CPS or the cops. It makes me wonder how those people actually raised their own kids... maybe they're the ones out there causing all the trouble in the streets anyway.
🤷

Man, don't even get me started on CPS... my oldest still gets a little ear pulling 😁 when he really pushes it, but usually, a stern "parent voice" does the trick. Especially since he has these occasional temper tantrums; we just show him that we can lose it too if we have to.🤷

And that constant need to act like a know-it-all and lecture everyone? I guess that's just the world we live in now. Mostly I just shut him down, ignore it, or rarely give him a compliment (just to keep his ego from getting too huge).😁

Scott Howard74 said:Do you actually want him to follow in your footsteps, or are you gonna let him decide for himself when he hits 8th grade?😉

Now that’s an interesting question... hmmm. No way they’re gonna pull that off where I went. I’ve already got a much better plan in place for him!!🤣
Just kidding, I don't actually know yet. We'll see how it plays out. No promises on any big reveals, but honestly? A little bit of guidance wouldn't hurt!🤷

Ha, finally stumbled upon a thread that actually makes sense. Read the whole thing through and I’m feeling a little less alone. We’ve got two kids—I call them my little terrors—one is 12 and the other is 8. The older one has been going through puberty for a year now... way too early, honestly. We really thought we had more time before this hit, but nope. Just my luck. It sounds like most of you are dealing with the exact same madness. These mood swings and the constant attitude are enough to drive anyone insane. We managed to nip the physical stuff in the bud early on, like him lashing out at the little one or trying to take it out on me and my wife, but man... and the repetition! I swear, sometimes I feel like we need to take him to an ENT specialist just to see if he can actually hear us when we ask him to do something for the hundredth time!🤣
Some day, out of nowhere, he tells me he’s absolutely not going to a specialized STEM high school?! And he's only in 6th grade here in the States!
When I asked him what on earth he was talking about, he just starts spiraling, freaking out that if I went to a technical school, he shouldn't have to go either. And we haven't even had a single conversation about high school until now.😕
His teacher changed this year (it's the math teacher), and while he absolutely loved his teacher last year, now everything they say just gets under his skin.🤷
