I think Rhoni likes to yank chains, too.  |
I think there is a high probability that your "chain yank" assessment is involved in the content mix.
I am one who considers that "true expression" is often interlaced in most thread starts, even when the majority of the content might be hyperbole.
Online discussion boards present an option to be a kind of caricature of
our true self. By examining the margins I think there are glimpses of the true witness...peaking around the virtual masks.
