First, flame bate is not flame bait when it is predefined flame bate (a TOS thing). We have it here. But do be careful.
I'll start...
HubPages sucks.
HubPages truly is the best, kindest writers' site on the planet.
Climate Change is a fact.
Climate Change is a bunch of crap.
We are lab rats.
We are not lab rats.
[If any enthusiasm, I'll add to this in the next 3 hours.]
Kind of like a debate, which I am not good at.
Can I be a black lab, 'cause I don't like rats?
You may not. Because rats are wonderful creatures and everyone really likes rats deep down. And dogs are noisy nuisances that should be banned from the world.
(Did I do that correctly, PDS? Not sure how to do a flame war without getting burned OR being uncivil)
Dogs are man's best friend, wilderness. Rats aren't even on that short list.
Dogs rule over rats, cats, and brats.
Brats, maybe. But never the rest - give me a beautiful, cute and friendly little lab rat over a nasty, toothy, slobbering dog any time.
And cats, now - cats are just, well, the cat's meow if you know what I mean. Man needs a master and cats fill the bill quite nicely. They give us a purpose in life; provide food and water as needed, clean the litter box continuously and pet the cat as demanded. You just haven't lived until you've headed for that easy chair only to have the cat look up at you in that regal manner that plainly says "You just thought you wanted this chair, bub!"
Cats are crazy! http://www.keenquiz.com/10-cats-that-to … any-tokes/
It has recently been proved that rats have been unjustly blamed for the spread bubonic plague, when it was really gerbils or hamsters or something.
Being honest and play here. As always.
ALL chihuahuas need to be shot and buried.
As long as each dog is buried with some kids pet hamster...
Sorry but Cats are the rulers of the universe. They are much smarter and cleaner than drooling, people pleasing dogs. They also kill mice. I respect their independent nature lol
+1
You win, hands down. How can anyone have a flame war with a cat lover? The salt of the earth, I say!
I have you beat on that. My dog kills rats. And Cats.
worst flame war ever lol good job Paradigm. Can't we all just get along? Apparently we can... oh well, guess I'll go find some drama on TV til the rain passes.
Speaking of snakes, I firmly believe that the world's most lovable snake is, as everyone knows without a doubt to be the adorable little Northern Red Belly Snake. Any other thoughts on this snakes total awesomeness are totally welcome.
This one thing, we can all now agree upon.
HubPages is the best writers' site on the planet?
How can it be?
What about Hubscore? That's an unnecessarily hot topic unnecessarily hotly debated on the forums.

Ok... enough is enough. We hate the arbitrary hubber score. It is a phantom's judgement of us and the Q and A section does not give a clear cut way to effectively appease the phantom.Until you can give us an exact science (i.e. the way capitals and punctuation are used), it is not fair to stamp a...

TPAM is a game played on forums (I, for instance, first saw it used on an AOL forum back when I was a freshman in high school.) It stands for "The Person Above Me" and the rules are simple:1. You must post about the person who most recently responded to the thread at the time...

I was going to wait until nearer the time, but in a couple of weeks I will be heading out to the USA.Ultimately, I am going there because I want to go back to Las Vegas - me and the girlfriend went in 2008 whilst she was living in New York and had an incredible time (as you do, in Vegas).I want to...
