I'm totally getting used to the new boards, though I still miss the old boards.

Let's be honest, apart from the ugly visuals, busyness and preoccupation with hate, the new boards are OK. Say it quietly though..

Knocking hate on the head is pointless; a waste of time.  Evaluating the underlying causes; now that's a bit more worthwhile.

I like you Unca Ben. You are wise.

Reader, when you visit, as well as voting, note here what you think are the underlying causes of hate. I will summarise them periodically, if there are sufficient replies to warrant it.

I will get the ball rolling.

Possible Underlying Causes of Hate

1. Loneliness

I can see why you started this topic in CG, given the other conversations here.
I suspect a natural continuance of the subject in this vein could result in its banishment to the WC.
Furthermore, any honest contribution by me could lead to the topic being locked or vanishing altogether, given the taboos that have been instantiated by the  institutional authorities.

Thanks for the compliment, by the way.  It's likely undeserved, but I'll take what I can get.

Credit where credits due Unc.

So, would it be fair to say that the fact that one cannot make an honest contribution without the topic being locked or vanishing altogether, given the taboos that have been instantiated by the institutional authorities, is a possible cause of hate?

I say it's well deserved, I've learned a lot from your posts, and not just about comics. Also, anyone that's a fan of Sam Harris' work gets a stamp of approval in my book.

Oh yeah, . Sorry about that. I thought we were in the "We love Unca Ben" thread.

I hate cilantro, or as they say here, coriander.

I also hate arugula a.k.a. "rocket"

I say we kick both Unca Ben and the new boards in the crotch.

Only joking. Unc is probably right - this thread will likely get moved to the WC.  Just as soon as the administration team all get back from their six month holiday.

You made coffee squirt out my nose.   That's almost as bad as a kick in the crotch, at my age.

I suppose if I hate anything it would be Brussels sprouts - that's all I can think of.  But I do eat them on occasion.

Harris sure knows how to make his point.  A true master of the language.

Is that your Christmas present to yourself Unc?

Along with the seasonal self-flagellation.  Some traditions are hard to break.
