Are People getting ruder and ruder?

[Privateer]

Think about people as wine (or rum if you like).
Good people are good wine.
Bad people are bad wine.
After a while, good wine gets better, especially when paired with other good wine and good food(a good environment in POTCO). After a while bad wine gets worse, especially when paired with bad wine and bad food.
When a good wine is paired with bad wine, the bad wine is too stubborn to do anything, so the good wine is slowly turned bad.

Remember: All wine tastes differently.

OT: for some reason I'm very philosophical this morning, must be the craziness.
