OT Maybe it's not just you guys after all

I seem to be getting a lot of friction on an online motorycle forum
for posting my personal opinions on the topic of "people who are not
handicapped parking in handicapped spots." I seemed to get a lot of
negative feedback for my posts to the Jeep newsgroup a while back,
too, and also to the dirtbike newsgroup when I posted there. And on
this group. And on email aliases at work. Damn. I knew I shouldn't
have just torn up the mail I got yesterday that had "SOCIAL CONTRACT"
in big letters on it. Nah... it's probably just y'all. And them.

..............At least when we rip into you, you know that it's the anger
that families reserve for a very annoying but yet somewhat entertaining
family member who's always barking at the mailman and drinking out of the
toilet and then licking himself in front of aunt Clara.

Oh, waz zat u? The one who said his mother in law plowed a Harley out of a
handicapped spot? If it was, you took on the wrong crowd. There's some real
vets who responded. IRL you would have had your ass kicked by an old man.

IF that was you who wrote that.

Now I know why I read this newsgroup, aside from the VW addiction.
Classic USENET.

Sounds like they might have been handicapped after all!:~)

As for the rest, just remember, according to common wisdom, everyone
is entitled to his or her opinion, but I've never believed that. I
think everyone is entitled to his or her Informed Opinion!:~)

But admit it, you'd be standing there laughing your ass off if you
saw it happening.
