Clark Kent was raised as a corn fed farm boy in the American Midwest. I may be more human than him, but he's more American than me.

Shannon B. - you are not listening to the space alien!  It doesn't matter where you were born an raised that makes you an American.  You're no more un-American than the space alien, even though he was raised in Iowa (but born in outer space).

Would that make him a DREAMER kid?  Brought to this country by his alien parents at a young age, doesn't really know his home culture, but isn't legally a US citizen?

Now THAT is 1950's thinking I can get behind.

Keith Stansell​ I'm pretty sure the fact that I have never set foot on American soil makes me less American. ;-)

Ah, well.  Yeah, I guess you have a point. But were you to move here, apply for and become an American citizen, per Mr. Super Space Alien, it is un-American to talk bad about you because you came from somewhere else.

So, I asked Andrew Tamm, who filled my Stream with a hundred (sarcasm there) animated gifs and cat pictures to remove me from whatever Circle he has me in where he posts the animated gifs and cat pictures. It was either that or unfollow him and I didn't see any reason to unfollow him. Me asking https://plus.google.com/112885755521259735422/posts/78dwnvvgh4p <==edited to add the correct link Then he plusses me onto Public posts of animated cat gifs : https://plus.google.com/u/0/112885755521259735422/posts/EuuR1tnU3vJ https://plus.google.com/u/0/112885755521259735422/posts/8r6Grcm2Jpj https://plus.google.com/u/0/112885755521259735422/posts/74PgSu6iL2s Then one of his friends (or Circlers) starts plussing me into posts of animated cat gifs : https://plus.google.com/u/0/107120198886093172821/posts/gRW9JhWLs5T Don't get me wrong, I'm all about sarcasm and messing with people, but this seems sort of childish to me.

I'm shutting down Google+ for the night and quite possibly for the weekend. Why? This stupid #gifwars thing people are so proud of. This Adam Black guy said he doesn't like gifs and now everyone is mass trolling him. Having been mass trolled like this I can relate to him easily enough. Have an opinion and the collective might of Google+'s lower class denizens jump on a bandwagon. I just saw a post where someone wanted to jump on board and had to get clarification she was tagging the proper Adam Black. She wasn't even connected to him ! Nor was she a part of the original discussion. She just wanted to follow the herd. When I called her out of it she claimed, "one gif doesn't make a troll." Perhaps not, but she's contributing to a larger troll effort. One straw doesn't break the camel's back, but thousands will. So, tonight, Google+ disgusts me. It probably will tomorrow as well. And possibly Sunday. I gave up Google+ for two months this spring
