this site and the members taught me not to hate the wrong opinions any more.....it took a while....like a decade...but it happened ….now when some one says they enjoy south park instead of wanting to drive an ice pick deep into their eye socket I tone it down and offer hugs
Sometimes I burn out on this site and need to take some time away from it but I always come back. Gotta keep fighting the good fight and this is a good place to do it.

It was ok-ish first couple seasons, funny but not hilarious But now in its 22nd goddamn season, someone tells me they like it and are still watching it (only on the internet, I dont know any simple people in real life) I'm like, what the hell is wrong with you?
