Keep it clean and I will not downvote you. But I will downvote vulgar posts. I will report truly racist and anti-christian posts.

What do you mean by vulgarity? Bad words? While I try not to use them myself, I think people should be free to use them on this site.

I think what he means is porno speak, vulgar sexual references, etc. The kind of swearing I agree with here is like R. Lee Ermey giving recruits hell in Full Metal Jacket. That classic movie gave me great insight into what men are like when the women and kids are safe out of sight. "Let me see your war face!" Cracks me up every time.

Had a military guy tell me to motivate him during his workout because he just wanted to see what I looked like if I was ever angry. Be like a drill sergeant Barbie blonde! C'mon I need to get past this workout plateau!

He was doing kettle bell squats and I stood behind him and told him he was a lazy boy and needed to be punished for not going deeper in his stance. Then I spanked him with little swats fast and quick. He stopped turned and looked at me and said, "Drill Sergeants don't spank us...what are you doing?"

I asked him why not, it seems like a great motivational tool. Whatever, he had a nice ass...I enjoyed it. He told me that they were not allowed to make physical contact with personnel. Immediately took all the fun out of the idea of being a drill sergeant for a platoon of hot and sweaty men. No touchy da heiny? Imma head out...

I see nothing wrong with these motivational practices.

Ha! Ha! I think he would have been fine with it if he had not been in the head space of wanting me to imitate an angry drill sergeant unhappy with his progress, instead he got a kitten with a whip, looking for an excuse to touch his sweet butt!

It is funny when people ask me why I get equestrian supply catalogs in the mail, I don't ride or board horses. It is just the best place to get quality riding crops...really nice variety of colors and sizes too. Whap! Whap! Smack! ; )

By all means feel free, but I have always and will continue to downvote posts with vulgar language in them. It is never necessary.

Standard dad quote for my kids is: "Not all people who use filthy language are trashy people, but all trashy people do use filthy language. Try to stand out from the crowd."

I'm a dad too, and the first thing they come for is the curse words.

"Nobody needs to say FUCK". Nope, but we have a RIGHT to, and that's important. Teach your children their rights, not your hangups. The goal is to maker them better than you, not a copy of you.

I see nothing wrong with telling your children that certain language is better not used if they want to give certain impressions, but I'm fully against shutting down others' right to use whatever language they choose.

I'm also against downvoting. So while I disagreed with you, I didn't take the lazy way out. I said why like a man. Hopefully we'll ditch downvoting here soon enough.

How about you use that big brain of yours and simply tell them why and how you disagree with them, rather than take the lazy ass way out with a downvote?

The upvote feature is essential to make sure the cream rises to the top on these sites, but there's literally no use for downvotes other than to promote laziness and enable trolls.

Here's hoping we ditch that here.

I will van 38 homeless people to different cell towers and illegally upvote the shit out of this and every comment.

I have to go make sandwiches first then stop to get cigarettes.
