I'm done with your pessimism. I'm done with your negativity. I'm done with your endless stream of gloom-and-doom. You do absolutely nothing to give any liberal/progressive/Democrat even the slightest bit of hope or encouragement. That's your right and your prerogative, and you might even have some justification for it, but that doesn't mean I have to subject myself to it anymore. So long, and I pray that your negativity ultimately ends up being unjustified.
I respect Martin's opinion, and I know you guys do too. He's been here at ZVTS for years. If it's been that bad lately that I'm driving off long-time readers like Martin, then maybe I need to look at taking a break for a while. I've been at this for ten, coming up on eleven years now. I know I took a break back in December of 2013 and it was beneficial, but that was more than five years ago.
Some self-reflection is definitely in order.
So, I'm going to step back for a bit and see where I am, and I'm at least going to take the week off. The place will survive without me for a week, but I'll be back.
I hope you will be too, and I hope that I'm able to continue to give you all a reason to come back as well.
