You're in Chicago!? My whole family is from there but they are from the south side. We live in Philadelphia now though. I've lived here since I was 4 and I can't remember much of living anywhere else. Philadelphia is pretty kind to gays.

how does it feel to live in a metro area where it doesn't take a few hours from one end of the metro area to the other.

Yeah I didn't notice your location till after I read it. It takes about an hour now but that's because they are doing work on the El.

That avatar is some of the women from the US olympic gymnastics team. lol I am 25% Irish though, but mostly Russian.

Whoa! You remember/learned the Chicago vernacular from your family. "El".

I was banned at deviantart because apparently someone figured out my password and publicly posted it. I'm not banned anymore though. That's about it. I'm usually a calm poster who doesn't "misbehave".

I got banned from iVillage because I kept telling people that infant circumcision is sexual abuse, which is the truth, but no one wants to face it.

I have fallen out of favor with many members on some forums, but I have never been banned.

I've only actually been banned twice. I've fallen out of favor more. lol People are afraid of me freaking out. They don't understand I have a strong personality, it's not the same thing as "freaking out". lol

Moose, why did you get banned because someone else posted your password? I would think they would ban the person that posted it, not you. lol

lol No we have an El here too. EDIT: Sorry didn't read your post thoroughly enough before I responded.

My grandmother is from where Belarus is now, but her village was burnt down in world war 2. My family is Russian Jews and I've heard Jews weren't actually considered true Russian citizens all the way back then. But technically I am 75% Russian. I have distant cousins that I've met that still live in Belarus. Their son goes to school in the states.

I dont know. I still sometimes get myself into terrible trouble these days, and I'm nearly 31. I try to be vigilant not to offend people (which Im good at) but sometimes things slip through the net.

I was banned from a Star Wars forum out of pure administrative process. I was replying in threads that had been left dead for a while. Now, I was not spamming. I was writing legitimate posts in them. However, there was a rule that stated one must not post in 'old' threads, though it did not define how old they had to be. When a moderator called me out, I apologized for it. He told me that everyone there liked me, but that didn't change anything, and he wasn't going to go soft so I was banned.

I think everyone else gets people mad at them. I remember some guy saying if you don't piss off people in your lifetime, you're doing it wrong

That also explained how I somehow couldn't fit in with the other black people in 5-8th grade and HS to some extent. And how I managed to piss off a lot on TOTSE when I first posted lol. They said my spelling was s**t, didn't notice it when typing. They (some TOTSEans) also said my flames were weird, which they can still be sometimes. w00t for firefox 8)

oh, okay. Yes, Jews were not considered "full" Russians and were exiled to Western Russia ('The Pale of Settlement" I believe). The rules and laws varied over rulers but yeah there was antisemitism there. Ukrainians invented the Pogroms lol. The Soviet Union was friendlier to Jews and many Jews were influential in the Soviet system (see Trotsky before he fled/was kicked out by Stalin)

I guess it depends on what kind of role you decide to have in the world. Some are happy going against the grain, and others find it too stressful to be in conflict with others.
