CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
What's on your mind?

Considered pulling the plug on Facebook many times this year. Closer than ever before to doing that before the year is up.

Me and my strange recurring typos, lol.
I remember when I typed stories about Kirby, I would accidentally type "Kiry" a lot. Now instead of Samus I keep typing "Samud" and instead of Eta (an original character) I keep typing "Eya".
And there was at least one more that I can't remember exactly.

That's better than what I often do when I'm writing my stories. I'll have a name for a character, then halfway through the book, I start calling them by a different nameMe and my strange recurring typos, lol.

I don't even realize I'm doing it. I've learned to write down a list of character names and keep it with me at all times

Hey, that's happened to me before too lol! Not long ago I was writing a story with two characters who looked similar named Melody and Harmony. After the story was done I suddenly noticed that I wrote Harmony instead of Melody at one point. It made no sense that way.That's better than what I often do when I'm writing my stories.

I once wrote a story where the two lead characters were a male and a female police detectives who partnered each other. I hadn't planned on giving the female detective a love interest, but it sort of just happened. Unfortunately, I gave the boyfriend a name that started with the same letter as the male detective's name, and there were a lot of times I got the two names confused.

Yeah mine was calling a character Emma and then halfway through the book I was calling her something completely different. Then I'd have someone reading my story and they're like, "Who is this person? And why is she living Emma's life all of a sudden?" hahahaI once wrote a story where the two lead characters were a male and a female police detectives who partnered each other.

I actually have some peppermint creamer myself. It's loaded with sugar however, which is probably why I'm so hyper this morning.

That will be very epic! The mixed-up names are pretty funny lol. I know in my story it was weird because Melody could talk and Harmony couldn't, and Melody happened to be talking about Harmony in that particular sentence. So I at first wrote that Harmony was talking, and was talking about herself like she was someone else, lol!
What's really funny too is when everyone in my family reads my story and then all of a sudden I see a typo or two that no one noticed!

Oh, and another funny thing is when you look at an older story and suddenly notice a mistake. Like one time not long ago I was looking at a story I wrote in January last year, and suddenly I noticed that it said it was started in January 2017 and finished in January 2016.

Your subconscious really wanted that love triangle I guess.

Glad to hear your doing better today though. I get like that too when I haven't had any s'getti or pasta for awhile. Have you ever seen a grumpy Italian? It ain't pretty. =(Yes indeed! Btw, not that decorating for Christmas this year is a competition or anything (pfft). But if it was, I'm currently winning against Multifavs!Haha.

Maybe Anthony7 is decorating inside the castle, and I'm decorating outside. That would make us both winners.
