Brian37 has no whimsy mode. It seems he is incapable of taking a step back, putting all the strife of the world on the back burner and appreciating a rainbow for being a rainbow. He MUST point out the fallacy of thinking there is a pot of gold at the end of it. He is incapable of joy.
Brian, I take no joy in pointing this out. I also have some of the same problem. I have a hard time distinguishing between light-hearted ribbiing and genuine attacks on me so I know how it feels.
Jesus, make the effort to lighten-up. Boru's thread was an attempt to draw attention to what innocence there is in the world and to celebrate it. Are you incapable of that? Are you only capable of seeing the strife?
I hope you can find the room in your heart to see the good things in life (like the innocent play of a baby elephant) because if you can't, what's the point? There is certainly good in participating in the good fight to stop the ivory trade but if you can't appreciate the baby elephant, what the hell are you fighting for?

Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.
