Default Sig line.

I use the same sig line on DP and was just reported to the administrator because some sensitive type from San Francisco was OFFENDED by my sig line. I thought it quit humorous and not a political message.

Your sig line? Do you mean Sidebyte or "retired and loving it."

Either one, I'm offended. Admin!!??!

I'm no fan of Cheney or Kennedy... but sheesh, some people will complain about anything. We used to get complaints about our "Kerry sucks less" bumper sticker. Who's that supposed to offend? Go figure.

Being offended is a choice made by the offendee... it's a lack of tolerance. Don't liberals preach tolerance?

If DP makes you change your sig line... they suck.

Woah, almost a political thread looming - quick, call the moderator police!

Personally your sig doesn't cause any offence, though my views on Cheney are probably not as glowing as some. As he's not actively involved in British politics I can take him or leave him. As for Kennedy - I'm too young to remember any of that clan .

what you have to remember about the Kennedys is this. all the good ones have died and then formed a rock band called the dead kennedys. this is humor only.

Yes, I was thinking of them when I posted. I wonder what happened to them? They were always a bit too hardcore for my tastes.

I've never heard a good word about that place, I've never bothered. Never will now.

That's just petty.
