This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.

Important notes on articles:

• Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
• Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
• If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

Add voles, take out moles. Oh, and then there’s the bears by gozer

bastards keep trying to break into the cars. And they never remember to close the damn door when they leave. Somewhere around here I have an airsoft rifle, next spring the fat bastards are going to start associating “opening a car door” with “getting shot in the ass”

Oh, and the question “does a bear shit in the woods?” No, he shits in my driveway.

Asshole.

And on that note, I’m a little tired of moose and elk crap in my yard.

Also, some prick woodpecker woke me up poking holes in my wall this morning. Probably means there’s bugs in there now.
