So a man comes onto a forum where he has been a member for 23 years to unload some of his worries into the ether and your first thought is...

"I'mma shit on this guy because he is, clearly, not having a rough enough time. I'm not gonna offer any empathy, advice, or even just moral support. I'm gonna take this opportunity to shit on him and take a political stand in the Lounge."

Ecclesiastes 3:1-8

For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven: a time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up what is planted; a time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up; a time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance; a time to throw away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing; a time to seek, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to throw away; a time to tear, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak; a time to love, and a time to hate; a time for war, and a time for peace.

Dunno man... this feels like one of those times we are called upon to "build up". If you are incapable of that... may I suggest that it is then, instead, a time to keep silence.
