Well. Not surprisingly so, you’ve all taken Aly’s post an turned it to a completely different topic. I think the original point (let me speak for you here friend ) had nothing to do with alcohol (of which I personally freely partake ), but more of the language that’s appropriate for a family oriented site. I personally am not asking you all to close Thursdays, or stop having heated debates, or lively discussions. I usually like to participate in those too. But I think we need to curb a bit of the innuendo, to use a word that was used earlier. Think about the things you would say out loud if young people were sitting in the same room with you. Think about the other people that are cyberly sitting in the room while you’re “talking”.
Ummm... was wondering when this thread would get back on track. Have to agree with Aly and micki76 on this one. I don't think it is the joking, humor, cyberbar or political debates that she was referring to. Rather the sexual innuendos that give you a visual image of what you would watch on HBO after 10pm. So although I personally do not find it objectionable, I would never discuss it in a room of 10 year olds.

I do not think that you can stop the topics that are unobjectionable (is that a word - the grammer police may get me) to all people. Religion, politics, abortion, dating, medical decisions, etc. have all been discussed here and many times they are interesting lively debates that are very interesting and informative. I for one would miss hearing different opinions about different topics.
