One of the groups I go to has an opening line that says something like, you may not like all of us but with time you will come to love us just as we love you. I kind of thought that was dorky, but I've noticed that when I see one of you guys out in the bigger DU, I'm predisposed to care about you and listen without being snarky or combative.

But then, I find my snark level overall has gone way down. I used to love to come to DU and be witty, snarky, maybe even mean sometimes. I don't have it in me to do that these days.
