Re: UPC Culture
It's because we have labeled each other. And so some just look for a chance to attack the other side. There are three sides to every story, yours, mine, and everyone else's. Sad and pitiful.

Well, even going back to FCF, we were labeled fairly quickly.
I'm not sure what happened on the "stepper" thread, to be honest, and maybe it's just my perception, but it definitely seemed like the rules of engagement changed.
However, this too shall pass!

Re: UPC Culture
Yes, I grew up sleeping under church pews... I did it from the time I was born until I was old enough that people made fun of me. Have always been an early riser and am in bed by 9pm 99% of the time (another reason I never fit in in church... since you have to stay up so late).

I slept on the front pew when I was little, and woke up many times with folks shockamooing all around me!
