[SOC] the internet

Still trying to find a tirade there. i found a statement, but nothing 
even relatively close to a tirade. It doesn't even remotely resemble a rant.

I guess living in the desert all these years has made my skin as tough 
as nails as I have yet to find anything offensive in the group to date. 
Now that I think about it, that almost looks like an open invitation for 
someone to try and offend. :)
