I assumed that was the case, at least to a degree, with me and a few users on this platform: I remember joking around about lesbian friends and their mating habits, for example.
Maybe I was wrong (this is the first anonymous forum I've used since like 2006, not saying I always read the room correctly), maybe Batlord likes the woke high ground a bit too much, dunno. But then I also can't be bothered to care what someone like adidasss thinks about me: life's too short.

I wish you said "life goes by too fast" or "we only have a short amount of time." When you said "life's too short" you give me the impression you're like Scott Lang stuck in the Quantum Realm, likes the way you say things is seriously misleading. You has to remember that no two people have the same exact frame of reference.
