As a little old lady, I have to disagree with your statement that the little old ladies in charge. If we were, in fact, in charge the world would be a far better behaved place than it is, and the young’uns would have some respect for their elders. Remember, the little old ladies of today were the teachers of yesterday who did not tolerate such nonsense in their classrooms.

No offense intended. My point is not so much that LOLs are at fault but that a masculine response in cases like this has been made practically illegal.

Bravo! Sadly, even quality teachers of your era would be forced to comply with today's silly rules. A strong stomach is required to watch helplessly as a society self-destructs as ours is doing. A little familiarity with history shows it's a pretty common occurrence though, almost cyclic.

Perhaps not “little old ladies” like you, but too much control of our children has been turned over to “little old ladies” and young ones who believe all that Dr. Spock carp.
