I think we all need to have a sense of humor as we age and be able to laugh at ourselves.
Forums are places where all can express their point of view, and other can opine on it.
I think we should take Forum Comments with a "grain of salt".
IMHO, it's the nature of Forums to be "rough and tumble" and we should try not to be overly sensitive.
And there is always the good old Ignore List if someone in particular is getting on your nerves.

A woman attorney friend of mine grew up in Scottsdale, AZ back in the 60's (before sunscreen). She told me they used to refer to the older women who hung out at the pools taking in a lot of sun as "alligator ladies". She admitted it wasn't nice but alligator hide was pretty much what their skin looked like after years and years of sunbathing. I told her I thought that there were no alligators in Arizona...
