Default How PC have we become?

It seems that many innocuous threads here recently have become bitter battles to prove that you take the high and mighty side to alleviate any truth to daily life and or experiences. While I agree I would probably not choose to post a race,gender or nationality in my anecdote this is life. A C5 owner is a car owner like everyone else, they may or not take pride in ownership. To beat an OP down for stating something that mundane on a Corvette forum is just ridiculous. I no longer can say the "Rustang next to me, his owner shat hisself after a nice long rev". Recent responses: I have a mustang that runs 10's. Ok cool nice run. "Ricers always trying to race" response why do you think you will be faster than the ricer? Many never know until you line them up. Cool w/that too. I just don't get the PC I'm done now and I'm a big boy no flame suit req'd.
