Blindjim, well said, tho most here likely won’t appreciate your wisdom.
Do posters intend to hurt the feelings of other members?
It is usually the case that members engage in spirited, often passionate, discussions in threads. That’s normal. Regrettably, often those discussions veer off the tracks, where members are offended or genuinely have their feelings hurt by the content of others’ post(s).

And just this morning, I lectured my 9 y/o not to use terms like “triggered,” as such terms are not commonly used, let alone accepted as representing a universal meaning. If you mean “angered,” then simply use that term. 🙄 @mental How long have I been here? That you need to ask means that you can’t figure that out on your own? Seriously? |
The thread is intended to shunt posts of similar ilk from the following thread: https://forum.audiogon.com/discussions/the-science-of-cables?page=9 |
I didn’t criticize anyone for using “triggered.” I know what folks mean when they use that term. I simply related a discussion about using formal English I had with my son on the way to hockey practice. It’s easy enough to figure out how long one has been on line, at least here. So I responded in kind to the sarcasm. Tit for tat. No harm, no foul. |
@djohnson54 well, that was not my intention. Just going with what the discourse here was leading and dovetailing a discussion on the very same language I had with my son that morning driving to practice when he used it (yet again) after I asked him to not accept that language from his 3rd grader pals as his own. But it I appreciate your perspective all the same. |
