As a prod contrarian, I'll stick up for at least my own reputation as one of the "jerks" at CP. I love to argue. I don't mean anything personal by it, but if you talk to me, on just about any forum or in real life, I don't like just agreeing with people. Makes conversations boring. At CP we tend to think of ourselvs as the "biker bar" of the fandom. Anything goes, have a thick skin, but be aware that everyone else has one, too, so you can feel free to cut loose. A nice side-effect of that atmosphere is that the discussions can get to some pretty candid, meaningful topics. Our politics discussions, or religion discussions, or even discussions about music can take some very interesting turns, and I've never looked at a thread at CP that's winding down and thought "that conversation went just the way it always does when this topic is brought up." You guys are nice. But... well, nice is boring. :P
