    Inside of my mind, I have aplatypus named Gioff. I got him at Petsmart on sale. One night while I was sleeping, Gioff climbed into my head and started randomly singing party in the USA. Once I was done screaming like a little girl who just got the poop scared out of her because somebody jumped out from behind a bush with a monkey, I tried to stick my hand inside of my head and retrieve the platypus. I didn't fully succeed. So, with half a platypus hanging out of my ear, I went back to Petsmart and complained. I told them that I'm never buying an animal from them again because they crawl inside of me. They were shocked, and I clarified that it went through my ear, and then they were relieved. They told me that there wasn't anything they could do about it. I threw myself on the floor, making a scene, and demanded a free hamster. That night I was eating my dinner and all of a sudden Gioff, still hanging out of my ear, started to cry. I asked him what was wrong and he said that he doesn't like it in here anymore. I told him to shut up and that it was his fault, he didn't like that. I attempted to get a shower the same night, but it's a little hard whenever you have a platypus hanging out of your ear. I did what I could and headed off to bed. But, just then, I remembered I left my free hamster in the car and by this time it probably already ate the cheese puffs I had hidden under my seat. I dashed down the stairs, Gioff screaming from the sudden movement, and bolted through the garage to the car. I than opened the door cautiously incase of a sneak attack from the vermin. To my surprise, my cheese puffys were still there, and the hamster was asleep on the back seat. I went to pick up the hamster carefully, but it freaked out and bit my finger. I tried to yank my hand away from it, but it latched itself on pretty well. Running up the stairs, Gioff now screaming even louder, I remembered I had forgotten my cheese puffs in the car. Running BACK down the stairs, Gioff in hysterics from the stress, I safely got them cheese puffs. With the hamster still biting and Gioff still flipping out inside of my head, I managed to work my way up the stairs. Once upstairs, I gave my hand a good whack to the wall, and off came the sadist hamster. And it's Obama's fault.

    I think they are not asking you don't cuss because the filter will catch it and turn it into ####. They are asking that one not dodge the filter with using other symbols for letters or deliberately misspelling the word. That shows disrespect to the owner and mods. I do what I want in my house but in your house I will act like I have some sense until I get a feel of the environment. Beyond contrary belief not everyone cusses. You can't cater a forum for one specific group. You have to have neutral ground so all can enjoy. That's one thing that makes a forum healthy and grow. What's nothing to you might be vulgar to the next person. What do you think an outsider that visits the forum and sees nothing but foul language really does paint a negative picture of the industry. Yet many complain how they get treated.

    I'm more like a chameleon and adapt to my surroundings. There are times you conduct yourself in a professional manner and there are times you cut loose.

    Any large forum I've seen has a bad word filter. The ones you see with anything goes are ghost towns with limited membership. There has to be some rules or a forum caters to a limited group. The general consensus is people don't want to hang around a bunch of negatives.

    I hate negative people. I just want to grab them and kick their arse and tell them to cheer the #### up!
