I recall seeing a museum exhibit of barbed wire. Maybe in Calgary?

Maybe. I think the big one is in Kansas.

Do you have to be an Aspie to find barbed wire more interesting than sports?

Strangers on the internet are not telepathic

At least I am not telepathic

In my 6 1/2 years of posting on WP one thing I have figured out is that I can not figure out what if any reaction I will get to my posts. This place never fails to surprise me.

It seems you have finally gotten a reaction to your posts - this thread. :)

A belated welcome to Wrong Planet

You knew someone was going to post 'speak for yourself' if you didn't add the second line. :lol:

Perhaps I'm too angry when I post. I just realized maybe when I come across too angry people are afraid to reply. I apologize if that's the case. I've been going through a lot and it's no excuse hopefully it explains my excessive anger.

That might be a factor. I haven't noticed it, but generically speaking people might be more prone to not getting involved if they're worried they might get their heads bit off. Some posters on here are a lot more sensitive for that than others too, but if the main respondents are people you see often arguing, that might suggest they're the only people who aren't too timid to post.

I appreciate the insight. Perhaps it's my did that makes me numb and relatively insensitive. I honestly find sensitive people annoying b/c I was one. I want to help them, but I can't. I am not sensitive anymore and I just get annoyed.

I guess you'll just have to roll with the insensitive set. First step, memorize these handsigns:
