I'm an old fellow now with a wife n kids n all that but in terms of herps know very little. But I have to say that at times people get side tracked by their own egos here.
At times innocent questions get radical U DON"T KNOW A THING type responses. And 34 year olds seem to get pulled into personal battles with 17 year olds.
Others quote laws at the drop of a hat. Some call all of this face to face, man to man ( sorry ladies but u don't make these stupid claims). But lets "face" it this is all pretty annonymous & very safe.
I really question how all of this helps anyone except offerring a release for pent up no lifes.
My suggestion is to imagine the guy or girl you're about to slam is standing in front of u & maybe one day(in theory at the hands of another internet herper) could be your son/daughter.JMO.
Great laugh! I posted that I was an old B*gger now & the bad language filter came up with I'm an insect collector now. Hence the edit "I'm an old fellow now".
