Please leave your muddy shoes at the door. (Patreon)

The internet already have plenty of ugliness, anger and hate and every day we inevitably walk through those muddy places, getting more and more bogged down by the vitriol of others and from within. Which is why we ask all of you to please, please leave those muddy shoes at the door when you come in here. The two of us want to keep this little corner of the internet a pleasant and fun place to watch movies and tv shows with you!

Tim Minchin once said,
"Most arguments are kept alive by a failure to acknowledge nuance. We tend to generate false dichotomies and then try to argue one point using two entirely different sets of assumptions."

We love reading your discussions and hearing your point of views in the comments, its George's favorite thing to do when sitting on the toilet- but not when it devolves into baseless and pointless insults and arguments, all that does is make the arguers angry, other patrons have a bad time, and George to have a sad shit.

Not every conversation needs to be won and not every opinion needs to be changed. It's okay to not agree with others without engaging, what someone else, or even what we say on camera, is not a direct attack to you or those you know and love.

If you find yourself typing a response in anger, before you press that "Send" or "Comment" button, read what you wrote out loud. Pretending you are saying it to someone face to face and not just an anonymous name on a screen, imagine that person is someone you know and care about but disagrees with. Would you still say those exact words?

And if after all that you still feel like saying it, then ask yourself a second question. Does it really matter? There's no winning or losing arguments on the internet, there is only two people getting angrier and angrier as the argument drifts further and further from the original point. So let it go, walk away and remember that you're here to enjoy movies and tv shows with friends.

Please, be excellent to each other.
