I'm just trying to figure out when DrPhil got minions. I feel like most people could take or leave her posts just like they could mine or any number of people.

The thing is, DS, your opinions are not especially strong, DrPhil be damned. If your fall back when someone disagrees is that they need to do research or go look something up, well, that's not really on them.

UGAalum (who will always be alphagamuga to me, said like one word lol) and I don't particularly agree politically, but I think because her approach is more Socratic, I can appreciate where she's coming from.

The KSig twins (dammit, sometimes I still don't know which one I'm talking to -- are you the guys from GI Joe or what?) and I also have divergent opinions, but somehow we're able to relay our thoughts without coming from this "space" that seems so incredibly challenging to penetrate.

In short, I never feel condescended by any of the three people I listed above, and for all I know, they're as white as the driven snow. I can find commonality with them without telling them to go read a book or something.

It seems to me that maybe, just maybe, GreekChat isn't the place for you to have these strong opinions -- you're well within your right to give them, but really, the sweethearts, babies, dears, and bitches are for special occaisions and this isn't one of them.

In other words, I don't often come to GC to have these staunch opinions one way or the other. I VERY rarely (especially nowadays) bother to give a well thought out reply to anything political here. I'm here to be adored by the people who think I'm hot and then be out.

Try it. I'm sure some people here think you're a hottie, too.
