    The general decline in standards today

    Actually, most 50's sitcoms portrayed housewives as the smarter of the couple, even and especially when they played dumb.

    The general decline in standards today

    Yes, he truly was portrayed as having a heart and someone trying to do right in the way he understood it which was comically challenged each episode. The show also encouraged intelligent dialogue as opposed to "Did you see this weeks train wreck?"

    The general decline in standards today

    All in the Family was and still is a brilliant sitcom that addressed racism, classicism and 70's feminism; very radical for its time. Archie was not portrayed in a favorable light and he was balanced out with other characters to deliver the point that Archie was narrow-minded. This is far...

    Excessive posting? ... Interesting.....

    OK. I was genuinely curious. Seems that having a high volume of anything virtual (facebook friends, twitter followers, etc.) is a sign of success these days.

    Just curious- what is the attraction and fulfillment with volume of posts?

    Too bad ineptitude can't be considered a crime.

    Right, but people were better about being bad back then. ;)

    I understand your point and agree with you on much of it. But I like to read Regretsy. That doesn't mean I condone everything on it, nor that I've become a blind follower. I don't drink, smoke or bounce checks. So this is my bad girl outlet, maybe. :o

    Gee whiz, Lizzie. I think this is the first time we haven't seen eye to eye. Well, nothing is 100%. :)

    Thank you, Marc. (Nice to see you. LTNS.)

    A Hobo Wedding

    Back to my original point, there is a lot of mockery on here too, specifically directed at those who aren't as well-dressed or well-mannered as "us." Whether mockery comes in the form of passive snide remarks uttered by people in swanky fedoras and picture-perfect dresses or overt finger...

    A Hobo Wedding

    Regretsy has done a great job of using snark against some of the corrupt, specifically large manufacturers passing off their cheap, machine (or sweatshop) made wares as hand-made by one person on etsy. Such dishonest sellers create an unlevel playing field for those who truly do produce hand...

    There's plenty of holier-than-thou sanctimony on the lounge. Only we're right. :o My point being many of us have voiced our displeasure or looked down our noses at other people, sometimes a whole lot of us in one thread. Some might call that a mob mentality or anonymous nit-picking. I guess...

    What a great-looking "experiment!" Glad it was a success! Was it fun to make? I've been thinking more about baking once the weather gets cooler!

    Lots of bad news out there. Gloom and doom. What's good with you today? Did you find something great this past weekend? Make a new friend? Find a wrinkle cream that really works? :o
