Again Ray you are acting as the self-appointed arbitrator of the site.
People in glass houses, I have seen you consistently place less than nicey nice posts to Willmore, Desdomona, Emily the maid and pretty much anyone that dares mention moving to Florida

It makes me feel sick seeing people eat so much canddy all the time. Then you get people putting out plates with little collection boxes asking for donations to the candy bowl. Am I a scrooge for not contributing.
I feel often that living/working here I am in some weird children's universe where adults behave like children (specifically regarding eating). I still see eating burgers as kids food and something one grows out of when you get older. Here people always moan when they have some 'adult' food like roast chicken or spinach something or lentil something, they always look forward to the days when they can have 'comfort' childrens food like a hot dog or burger. (we get free food at my company!)

I just love broad generalizations.
