Some folks are constantly seeking a venue for expressing their
disaproval indirectly in a cowardly fashion... wouldn't it be more
honest to just say one hates their mother... when people express what
they perceive as picayune faults in those they claim to care about,
especially publicly in a wide spread venue so as many as possible can
hear, then they don't care about them in any positive way. I mean if
you want to express your own preferences in opposition to other
posters I think that's quite reasonable but why tear into someone who
can't defend themself.
