well, you don't have to if you don't want to.

and it doesn't have to do it for you. the most interesting thing is that you don't have to be here at all if you don't want to. But apparently you want to in some fashion because you've been here for over a year now.

So maybe you may need to understand what respect means in someone else's vernacular and day to day speak. It may not be your grandfather's meaning. It may not be the hip hop 1990's meaning. But somewhere in this dialogue it has a meaning.

So let me ask you, if you encounter someone else who just logged on who didn't even do nothing but log on, how do you earn their respect? How do they earn yours? Or do you show them that you've got no debt and own your home outright and they should just respect you instantly?

It isn't about the fact that someone started a message board, it's that someone here is trying to interact with another individual. Just how do you have respect for them, their beliefs and ideas? And how should they respect you, your beliefs and your ideas?
