I just got a demerit on another forum for bad language.
I wrote about being "pis@ed off". Really?
I think I'm on "double secret probation" now.
Glad I didn't say "poopy", I'da been shot.
Sorry for the rant.
I was banned from that forum for talking about Harley Davidson's massive outsourcing efforts of late. And for calling someone a "Harley-Tard" for their general Koolaid drinking, lemming following of the "Motor Company". You can only blow sunshine on that forum or you will be booted.
Their reason for banning me was "Foul language and a bad attitude". I think I said "butt". I can post the "post" that got me booted.
Oops! I may be booted here now? Oh well. Just have to ride more.
