Sometimes they are, but most times I just want to acknowledge something without having to write anything.

It seems like a leap that the thumbs up is sarcastic, but no problem at all with

In general, Gen X has raised a bunch of #### morons. I'm disappointed in many parents.

Toughen the eff up, people.

Anymore it's easier to find what doesn't offend them.

Kids nowadays have been taught to be offended by everything.

I could be talking about something that happened that day and say someone was black, in no bad way and story isn’t bad. Teenagers be like “that’s racist” .

Like it’s racist to say someone’s ethnicity while not using any negative connotations. Just saying someone was black or Asian is racist to them.

I could be like “I met the nicest man at ingles today, we had a lot in common and talked a while, he was a black guy” kids “that’s racist “

I feel like I'm on the other end of that--its pretty difficult to offend me. I see the things younger folks get upset about and it friggin' baffles me. Are they taught to be like that?

I'm an anachronism I suppose.

I for one am glad you are stopping. You are one of the most ignorant posters ever. You obviously think very highly of your own opinion, unlike the rest of us - RockHillTiger
