Haha - I screwed up. Hit the wrong button.
My message is about the strangeness on the board. I find myself a bit disturbed by the nastiness that has reared its ugly head here. It is drowning out the discussion of Throwing Muses wonderful music and the lighter discussions on related topics. Am I saying you can't discuss what you want to here? No, but maybe not leave so much crap for the rest of us to muddle through.
I see that some of the messages end with false niceties - making a personal attack & then saying 'but I mean it in a good way' or some such. If you're going to shit on someone, at least have the courtesy to not backpedal.
While I am in the point of setting myself up to be flamed or whatever, I might as well say that the misuse of the word 'your' is a pet peeve. 'Your' is the 2nd person possesive case - 'you're' is the contraction of 'you are.'
Hoping certain people on this board relax a little, Sean
