    Sorry, I couldn't resist. After seeing these types of threads so many times, I couldn't help but make my own accusations! I think you're all generalizing everything!

    Oh wait, that means me, too :D

    Personally, I think it's to bring the ideals of peace and justice to PC. But then again, I'm a dreamer (and a generalizer). So, have a good day, and happy generalizing!

    (Before the flame throwers come out and roast me, I just want you all to know this is just in jest :p This is not an attempt to inflame, cause a riot, or make enemies. Any resemblance to real life events is purely intentional - and for the sole purpose of putting a smile on your face! All rights reserved - or something to that effect.)

    Because it's easier to look at the world in black and white than to try and view the whole spectrum.

    Here's a generalization:
    anyone named bigmahma is a troll.
    Oh wait, that's a fact.

    It's human nature to generalize. And I agree with Darwood.

    There are only two type of posters on PC: those that generalize and those that don't. :D

    I haven't been around much lately, for which I am saddened. I miss PC. And now I read that I have missed generalizations? As Galaxee would say: Gah!

    I thoroughly disagree with the general premise of this thread. I have never generalized, and nobody else here does either. Being Prius owners, we are all much better than that.

    This is why Neocons lost the last election and will lose the next one. They assume just because THEY have to march lock-step with whatever talking points Rupert Murdoch wants to make that week that liberals have the equivalent marching orders. Have you ever seen a Democratic convention? They can't agree on which direction the sun rises ("It rises in the east." "You're being rather directionist!"). The way they bent over and took it from Dubya last week shows that.

    Sorry, I was reading a few threads that had opening blanket generalizations, and I couldn't help but mock them :D
