Maybe they just knew where it was GOING to go. Sometimes even the most mundane topic on here turns into a world war. It's kinda funny how it goes. Everyone wants to put in their 2 cents then ridicules others for doing so. I've had mine removed also but for responding to someone who was rude to me. They just took it all off. I do see why though.

"MY TWO CENTS"

Meaning: To state one's opinion.

Example: If I can put my two cents in, maintenance on that Ferrari will kill you.

Origin: "Put my two cents in" originates from the older "put my two bits in" and has its origin in the game of poker. When playing poker you have to make a small bet before the cards are dealt called an "ante" to begin play in that hand.
This phrase draws an analogy to the poker ante (two bits) and gains your entry into the conversation.

I dont see why either, i know it can get a little aggresive and crazy, but sometimes confrontation is good, and its only human right. Maybe some people who read it and dont like what it says, need that reality check! I like it when people get fighsty on here, cheerleaders can be vicious!!
