OMG...stop!!! Gay cancer??? Nnnoooo! Do you think I caught “the gay cancer” from my bestie? I KNEW she and I should not have drank after each other! Perhaps one of the presidential candidates can pay off a pharmaceutical company to cure me!

Well, you can only get gay cancer from looking at a pride flag for too long.
( maybe don’t say the political stuff, it’s a hot topic. but tbh I shopped at hot topic till like, now, even though I’m like 28, mostly because I like Pokémon and I can get Pokémon collectibles there.)

By the way - this is what I love about BYC! This started with us being informed about a new political guideline and now we’re talking chocolate. I know, and can understand, some people get irritated by this. But, it’s fun!

we turn arguing into laughing, it’s our poultry magic!

Yup!
Although sometimes I can’t tell if there’s an actual argument or just benign trash talk.

Definitely there’s some of both going on. But it’s like going to bed angry...I try to avoid it. I try to get over it, understand it or learn from it. If people get heated then something has affected them personally, so I try to correct & apologize, or be thankful that I’ve gained a new perspective or insight and part ways as a better person.

That is excellent advice.

Thank you for this. I frequent political forums as well and they are brutal, especially duting this part of the electoral cycle. Not having that anger and division here is one of the many reasons this is such a great place to spend time, chat chickens, and relax.

I agree, especially because none of us actually know each other. No filter wad applied to those threads lol.

Hmm, filters
I seem to remember that those are things used to separate the useful from the not useful. Maybe those were left out of the instruction manual for a lot of humans.
I like to think I have one, it just clogs really quickly.

Oh, I think it separates the good words to say in front of people from the not so good ones. I think swear words are very useful.

I thought it separated the not good to say in front of people from the not so good to say in front of people. Swear words are very useful, especially when you don't know your Mic is on on zoom. In lucky I was with 2 friends in a break out room lol. My govener... No so much.
