Waaa waaa waaaa. Could you people create your own b!tching list to talk
about this subject. The vast majority could care less. I woke up this
morning after 7 hours of sleep and 70 of the 100 messages I had were on this
stupid topic. It's getting really old deleting everyone's garbage.
Opinions are like @ssholes....everyone has one. And everyone certainly has
one on this topic but this is not the forum to share your stupid opinion.
Get your own damn list so you can cry and complain to each other and leave
the rest of us that are trying to study and solve problems alone. Ok? Got
it? Good.
