Onpoint was always up for an argument. I think him leaving the way he did, he knew an argument of some sort would ensue. Congrats, people...you did it

There is a lot of truth to Hunting Wife's post. I think human nature makes us make quick decisions and this leads us to want to place things and people in buckets (in politics left, right, pro, anti, etc) for the sake of ease. It probably originated 100,000 years ago when the biggest decision was to run or not. We all do it, but you will notice the people that catch themselves and listen and think, even if they already "bucketed" the person are probably more successful at staying on internet forums. I think we are really fighting the complexity of any problem and argument in present day. The modern world is complicated and the problems we face are complicated too. Solutions, real solutions, are nuanced and require that we take into account a multitude variables. That is hard, and we fight the complexity by falling back on "this is a first step to..." argument. Any solution isn't going to be best for every individual (impossible), but it may best for everyone as a group (ideal). That is where we run into the problem of "I want what I want". If we could all agree on a general direction (which on a lot of things I thought we did, but I am not so sure anymore) maybe we would be willing to listen to alternative views and approaches.I get tired of having to be assigned a team all the time. I want what I want.
I was writing a PM when one from Onpoint showed up in my mailbox with the subject “What’s up your ass?” Funny,
What was up your ass? If you want beer - my garage is certified COVID-19 free. Stop over. This is ranking up with onpoint’s best ever thread..I was writing a PM when one from Onpoint showed up in my mailbox with the subject “What’s up your ass?”
I'd stop by your garage too GH. I'll leave the mask in the truck. mtmuleyWhat was up your ass? If you want beer - my garage is certified COVID-19 free. Stop over. This is ranking up with onpoint’s best ever thread..
So this thread is the “ new normal “ ???You sound like every commercial on TV
Haha! He's the one who publicly buried himself with a headstone eloquent goodbye to all speech... He reaps the gems of weeds & flowers that grow from his soil.I almost feel like piling on Onpoint after his password is deleted is like speaking ill of the dead.
I’m not saying you shouldn’t do it, because there’s some real gems in these comments.
Yep. And that communication hurt some people's feelers. mtmuleyIn the end, he fights the good fight it's just his communication sucks.
Apparently hurt feelers precipitated the exit. None of us are a big enough cog to dictate to Randy's mission and treasure expenditure. I do get the elegiacal support, but it appears butthurt is contagious.Yep. And that communication hurt some people's feelers. mtmuley
