I like to say FB comments are for grandma to tell grandkid how cute they looked in that tie at the pre-Covid family reunion. I haven't logged in for a decade, so I don't even know what people do on FB now that you can't really take pictures of your restaurant entrée every day anymore.

> pure flood

Very good term for it.

I even like it when people disagree here, since they typically back it up with reason. It's not a stoic site - it's just not flippant either.

There should be a web forum Kinsey Scale for that.

Disagreeing is cleraly valuable for some but rather hard to accept for “FB commenter” types.

Thanks again for your time!
