From a recently begun thread:

A CPF member recently posted this:

"When someone moves your cheese, you can pretend they didn't, but it does not change the fact they have.

Lead, follow, or get out of the way.

I will see your link and raise you ..... https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/b...9780385483827/

And while the book hints at great information, it is just shocking, and embarrassing that a member of such stature should then post what he has railed against for years: distorted presentation of data to skew perception for one's own aggrandizement. Presenting 30-day website traffic at a time of technical difficulty then comparing it with months of traffic (without interface issues) on another website was clearly impaired.

Looking at the numbers, it very probable that flashlight interest on social media is at an impressive high. And judging by flashlight sales, the news is even better I'll wager (figuratively).

Are quite a few longtime enthusiasts in something of a lull? Possibly, but for anyone to attempt a bestowal of wisdom here on this forum, trying to drag down other people's interest because things are not as thrilling as yesteryear for them personally? Well...

Let's hear what perceptions are out there. Images of food are OK.

Then Kestrel gets all dignified and noble

It's been my experience (on more than one occasion, due to being a slow learner) that it's best to just move on when someone's post rubs you the wrong way. But gosh-darn it, something's wrong on the internet, and I must address it! :banghead:

What did Forrest always say? Oh yes, "If I was a smart man....."

Dear Fellow CPF'ers, From this day forward, I Chauncey Gardiner promise to try to do better. Serenity now. Serenity now. - Walks off mumbling.... Serenity now.

This thread has attempted to usurp the authority and purpose of the "AND THE OFFICIAL THREAD KILLER IS ....." thread. More than one meandering, random thought non-specific thread is not needed, particularly when the limitations and expectations are outlined in that thread. Be sure to read the first post there, in order to familiarize yourself with the "agreed-to" conditions of posting there.

You're not losing this thread; you're only being redirected to the proper thread for posting.
