Wouldn't that be almost all of them?

I look for non-Baruch posts.  They are sometimes hard to find.  But I do look for them first.  Like now.
People will try to engage trolls, won't they.

I try not to.  I do look for other posts first.  But when the only discussion is with him or no one and I want to express myself, I'll take what I can get.  Sometimes he is "a useful foil"...

Sometimes called a chew toy.

Nice!  I'm a cat-person, and they bat stuff around more than they chew, but I understand.  Maybe my occasional indirectness reflects that.  ;)

Cat, dog-----same idea.  They are good for a little exercise, but they do become boring fairly quickly.

"boring fairly quickly"?  Oh I am sorry to discover what you are missing out on.  But that is up to you, not me.

Personally, I find the idea of relatively wild animals (cats, not dogs) able to share my home relatively cleanly and rather "friendily" a source of constant amazement.

Thanks but one forum at a time is sufficient.    I did however print your list to look at.
I cycle through ~25 forums on a rotating basis. Some keep me engaged, other are just worth reading. You don't have to participate, of course, but there are many that would keep you amused.

I couldn't keep up with all the people, and that matters to me.  I want at least a slight sense of community.

That's probably his head-wear of choice...
