I'm going to have to hand out sporks to random posters because I can't spork the posts that I need to spork.

Do y’all flame much?
Stowe has a seafood market, the owner goes to Boston twice a week and fetches huge volumes of outstanding seafood...he's been a fixture in town for decades, his fish is WAY better than anything grocery chains carry.
By the way, 2021 and 2022 have been his best years ever....a third of homes in Stowe are owned by out of staters and when the pandemic hit nearly all of them moved to Vermont to wait things out, they have lots of money and they like their fish.
Last night we had "oven fried" haddock...also picked up four pounds of swordfish, four lbs of salmon, a few pounds of sole and yellowfin tuna...
Hah. Yeah, I haven't issued any flames but I've been given 2. One for a post about not liking Penn State and one for using the phrase "shickled titless".
I was surprised both times that of all the ridiculous stuff I post, those were the two...
I've been flamed multiple times, never in retaliation for giving them (that I can remember - I think I've given one or two at best). I had one given to me by a poster who was sure I flamed him - when I didn't. Went to all the trouble to prove to him I didn't, which he later admitted. Thought the least he could have done is come back with a pitchfork. But he didn't. Oh well.
The only thing that bugs me is when a person flames me, but never comes back at another time to give sporks even if they acknowledge a good post on the board. I find that a bit weird.
One last point about flames. The first flame I issued I immediately regretted. I reached out to the poster with a PM telling them how sorry I was. I also went out of my way to give them multiple sporks to try and make it right.
OK, I've done my penance on this one. True Confessions are over.
