So, what percentage of the time do you refrain from snide comebacks?

I don't think snide. It takes a lot of energy unless someone is truly destructive on the forum.  

I just take things too seriously on the forum at times. Right?  Yea, I know...  am boring.

I don't get all the jokes. Some of it is popular culture that's historic or clips from movies in this forum, that I never watched as a kid. It's a joy being an imbecile.

I go way out of my way to avoid saying bad things about those I know as well as avoiding criticism of politics and religion.

I think it comes out of my training as a teacher where, for example, you attend a parent-teacher conference and immediately understand why their kid is so badly behaved and irresponsible. But, of course, you can't say anything about the parents.

Even when I'm speaking to someone I know hates someone we know in common, I avoid pointing out some new faults of the hated person - I might be mentioned in a "Even Mickey says..." cutting comment in the future.
