I keep seeing folks mention posts in "The PIT". I am kinda lost about what the heck they are talkin about.

Yes I can be long winded. Yes I follow rabbit trails. Yes I admit when I am wrong. Your mileage may vary.

I think the first rule about "The Pit" is you don't talk about "The Pit"
It is at the very bottom of the main index page.
Political and Religious topics.
Humor and off topic
Cliffs notes: catch all for things that should not be posted in other forums.
It is not visible to you now because you have not been a member long eough. Same requirements as having full access to the S&S area.
Those who fail to study history are doomed to repeat it.

It is the humor/ off topic and politics area. If I am not mistaken you have to be a member for so many days and possibly have a certain number of posts.
You are not missing much.

The header for the Pit:
No swearing, porn, assaults, or whining. No exceptions. If you are offended, stay out. Same rule applies as S&S 30 days and 25 posts before access is allowed. Mind your manners or you will lose the Privilege to post in the Pit.
You have been warned.

I'm not so quick to throw out the Off-topic/humor forum with Politics/Religion. It's a good place to ask advice if you're having trouble with your air conditioner, '73 Ford transmission, etc.. Lots of folks on here that know lots of stuff; or just to post or read humorous, non-gun stuff. I haven't noticed blood-pressure problems there at all.
The politics/religion sub-forum I don't visit so much anymore, myself. I'm ok with both politics and religion, but I get them elsewhere.
warning
no beverages allowed in the pit.

It's will you go to learn the true meaning of life and politics.
if you learn something there don't come whining to us

Gotcha. I'm sure there's a plenty that us non-moderators don't see. For the record, though, I was referring only to the Humor/off topic part of the pit. I'm well aware of the turmoil of the politics/religion part.
There's a guy at work that likes to bring up politics and religion. We are friends but we do not have the same views. I've learned now to just avoid it. Not that I don't have my beliefs and opinions, but we simply are not going to change each others minds so there's no point in fussing about it. We just don't need another layer of stress at work, and now we work together just fine. Kinda' like here.

Naw not at all. I understand it. Just means you gotta have a thick skin and take the BS with a grain of salt.
