I was getting gas this morning and three truck loads of gangs were there filling up and they said they were headed to Idaho to expand business. Be careful.

This is the craziest post I have ever read on this forum....even crazier than Duke's exaggerations.

Glad you are gone from here and have found a place you like...everyone deserves that. But don't make huge exaggerations about my city that have no merit. The only way you were experiencing gangs and the inability to shop at night is if you lived in the hood; maybe you did, every city has one and Charlotte is no exception.

RedNC's post: HILARIOUS! That is GOLD, baby!

Apparently my comment wasn’t appreciated by one person. I got a negative response from them. Here it is; “Off topic, flaming. Sarcasm and public ridicule are not acceptable. (plus your comment is idiotic).”

Now that's is funny.

For the poster that gave Red negative rep - you miss the point of Red's comment entirely. First of all, Red was not off topic - he was answering a ridiculous charge in a previous post with an equally ridiculous comment. When people post crazy, extreme or exaggerated things SOMEBODY has to be the voice of reason. This time it was Red, and I thank him/her

many people on the interweb have no sense of humor. Especially Yankees.

Oh cripe, that same doofus gave me a negative for my comment on this thread as well. Here it is:

Inflammatory, rude. No need for personal attacks. Please revise your post. You're losing credibility here.
Hey, sign your name next time instead of hiding. Obviously someone is abusing the feedback system. Saying something/someone exaggerates is not inflammatory. Um sorry Duke but you DO exaggerate at times, everyone has said that-- it was not a "flaming" remark. And as for "revise my post"..... you don't know how hard I laughed at that! Dream on!
