When you remember that there's a light mode for the site.

There is?!
Holy crap!

Oh man!
I forgot about that!

 

[Mister Mumbler]

When you wonder whether the new owners take a look at the state of the CE forum and get an acute sense of buyer's remorse.

 

[Shadyside]

When you see us just talking about the election.

 

[Redlin5]

You're me.

 

[Shadyside]

When you see lots of people worried and disappointed with the election.

 

[Mister Mumbler]

When you find your reaction to the usual background bickering turn to this;

When you see people use intelligence to justify sickness.

When you see threads keep going in circles for so many pages.

 

[Kae]

When you've used your old posts to find out how you used to feel about yourself.

When you want to do a joke but remember that you already did the perfect punchline a couple of months ago:

I don't even understand why you voted for him in the first place. I think you just voted cuz of guns? I don't think you made it clear in Wild West. Hopefully this will teach you not to vote just for one reason.

To be fair it was two reasons: Guns, and the Supreme Court.

Let's just say that I've learned my lesson. Mostly. I am pissed at the Republican party and considering resigning my membership.

It's good you've learned your lesson. Because I do know a couple of people who will keep voting Republican cuz of guns, low taxes, and no abortion. Regardless of who is in charge of the party. I still don't understand why exactly you cheered for him in the primaries and not traditional Republican candidates. Donald Trump was holding a huge RINO sign, but republicans voted for him anyways.

Do it, give up your membership, join the 'Omni-liberals', looking at liberalism from all sides.

It's going to require a lot of soul searching.

Not my finest moment. Something I will keep in my memory to remind myself of just how wrong I can be (very)
