A CU poster leaving in a huff because we're evil troop bashers?
Jeez, like THAT needed to be a controversy!
She's lucky she didn't get tombstoned IMHO.
on edit: modified language to not imply criticism of DU's wonderful mods.

interent will shut down out of boredon for the fact that they have nothing better to fixate on. I can see the responses now
*right on...you're a true patriot*
*high five...the DUmmies proved you are a true patriot*
*you told them...I served in Viet Nam...(never mind that I'm 17, and can't name a single region in the delta beyond what I've read in articles smearking John Kerry)*

Edited on Sat Feb-26-05 12:55 PM by philosophie_en_rose
There seem to be different breeds of "I'm leaving" threads:
1) the Insecure Baby - "Please notice me! Tell me you love me! Beg me to stay! Or I'm taking my blocks and going home!"
2) the Freep - "I'm leaving DU, because you libruls suck. I trolled for three months. Fooled you! Even though you don't give a shit." :)
3) the Tombstone - "I'm an obnoxious prick and am about to be banned anyway, so I might as well break up with DU first."
4) the Martyr - "I can't believe no one is joining my cult of {insert belief here}. Won't you people please think of the {cause}!"
5) the Attention Seeker - "I'm leaving DU, because I need to pee. Aren't you glad you clicked on this thread." :)
6) the Complete Idiot - "I'm a liberal, but I believe in corporate welfare, OUR president, and discrimination against all races and ethnicities. Why are you people so mean?"
7) the Broad brush - "See this thread on page 12578994215767 of the archives! DUers are all hypocrites!"
8) the Control Freak - "You people aren't doing what I want! You offend my sensibilities and I expect all of you to give in to my demands or I'll ... judge you!" :P

was probably a mixture of #1,#4,#6, with a gentle sprinkling of #8.
I'm a card-carrying, red-blooded #5
