Default Stuff that really Gets Your Goat!

Here are the rules:

Quote:

Nothing offensive - remember we have members from every corner of the globe, and all with different values and beliefs.

Keep it lighthearted - it's not supposed to be serious!

Keep it short - short is sweet - it's not a discussion thread!

Anything else I've forgotten that seems like a good idea.
