There was a time when I came here hoping for intelligent exchanges with like-minded people. Instead I came to see rather quickly that most people here are more interested in flaming each other and acting like kids instead of exchanging ideas and opinions in a civilized, adult manner. The CE forum is a nest of paranoia, the off-topic forum is full of 8 year olds and the General Discussion forum is a vipers' nest...what is one to do?

On that note, vipers are cool. I've never really looked at one. I just like the word. It represents all things that are cool.

Viper's venom. Double cool. Viper's venom vaporizes vandals. That's a quadruple word score. I never realized I like V words so much.

Yeah, I agree. The sound, "viper"... its so so.. cool. Thats the only thing I like about Korean chicks.. when they do the "v" thing with their fingers. I like V. V is cool.

Hooker/ Serial killer trial.
