I must say this, being a young person and degradingly being called a "kid" ruffles my feathers! It is not very pleasant!

Simmer down Z, whoever called you a "kid" is most like too old to remember those days.

Laugh it off! It helps to unstress, and if you are old enough to do so get a stiff one!

Now that that has been worked out--let's all take a deep breath, think of a happy memory and reduce our stress.

I hate to say that, but I work better if there is some stress.

Me too...

Ah, but I think you've lost the point. If I understand correctly, this and other "lounge" threads are not for work--they're for relaxation and enjoyment and for a pleasant interaction between the members of the forum. If the conversations here are cause for conflict, they might best be kept to ourselves and not made public. After all, there is an option to send direct communications without putting them in the public eye.
There are plenty of other threads on DaniWeb appropriate for work--I think your stress would be welcome on them.

emesch, sorry I have to disagree. A lounge like this is there to brainstorm, iron out problems, discus topics (hot and otherwise), learn from others, and relax (laugh, gossip, yawn). If topic pertains to work, so be it. We are supposed to keep it pleasant by edict of the host, not boring.

If I want boring, I turn on the TV. I laugh at the overblown news and other monkey stuff, now that makes me unstress.

Sorry but I can't accept your definition as applying to THIS thread. I'm sure there's a thread that will suit your need to Brainstorm etc--but here you've found the wrong address.
Maybe you should open a new "Brainstorming, Iron-out problems" thread. I'm sure you'll find others who would see eye to eye with your desire to be "hot and otherwise" on such a forum. Give them the chance to interact with you on that level. Of course, I'm sure you will always be welcome on this thread with advice on how to REDUCE stress.
Cherio. :)

'Discuss topics (hot and otherwise)'

Would this topic not count, perhaps, as one of the 'otherwise'? It is under discussion, after all.

What is your point?

I may unstress with something some other posters won't, does that create stress for some of the posters and not be allowed? :)
