I posted earlier on a hilarious prank a scientist did to prove professors can be full of crap and no one responded.
Someone posts "guess the size of my ding dong," 24 responses.
Thank you MFP, you helped me understand the world a bit better.
I just didn't have anything clever to say.0 -

You really want to move up, use LOTS of innuendo.
I, of course, do NOT do any of that. I do not need, nor do I seek attention or nude pictures from women unless they send them...today...sometime....But I am not into that.
Wait, who are you again? Are you new?
It's a good thing you're above all that and don't stoop so low, says the guy without a shirt on is his profile pic.0 -

I hope MFP is doing a lot of other good stuff for you though. I know I would love to see more weight coming off myself, I will continue plugging away. I found some awesome workout DVD's at lawn sales this past weekend 25 CENTS each! Some were dance arobic and a couple of P90 work outs. I am a Denise Austin kind of gal myself. I recently purchased Jillians one week Shred, ( just haven't really got into that one yet though) A momma friend from the local library loaned me her copy of Linsay Brins postnatal boot camp and I am really enjoying that. I might purchase a copy of my own from Amazon, I like it that much! Thanks for the giggles! You have a great day
That was a lot of information.
25 cents? Get out0 -

Someone needs more time with adult humans. Classic Mommy Brain Dump Syndrome. :sad:
Don't feel bad, Mommy of 4, happens to the best of us. Remember, you are doing an important job raising kids. Plus consider the source. Leut_underpants didn't even think to make himself a captain.0 -

You....friend me. Because you are hilarious.0 -
i don't understand how forum threads relate to television.
you know, sometimes, something as simple as "time of day" can effect the number of responses too. if you post a topic while another one or two are popular, some people don't scour for topics but just refresh one thread.
regardless, i don't think insulting everyone is a good way to garner responses to your intellectual thread.0 -
I don't think it's necessarily insulting to note that we used to have shows like Mr. Wizard and now we have garbage like 19 kids and counting. The history channel doesn't even show history anymore!0

Alrighty then.
1) Both relate to popularity of ideas, hence ratings.
2) I was making a joke.
3) I was making a joke.
P.S. Don't take it so seriously. Because #2 and #3.0 -
Yep I'll stay classy because that's what good mommas do!
The stress isn't worth it!

"Mr. Wizard" was a children's program, and "19 and Counting" is not a children's program. Being a parent of a 4 year old who frequently has children's programming on, i can tell you that there are some pretty good shows, that are interesting and educational. I can list them if you'd like.
That said, with the multitude of channels available, the quality of programming across the board is not great - but there are good things out there.
I wasn't necessarily saying that pointing it out was insulting. What I was saying is that intimating to all the users of these forums that they are so simple/dumb that they cannot appreciate his thread about a scientists prank and let it fall by the wayside is insulting.

Just remember the next time you try to post something on the Chit Chat, Fun and Games forum, watch it with the jokes, ok?
Noted, thanks.0 -

On the contrary, insulting someone seems to keep a thread going. It will eventually get shut down by the mods too. But it certainly seems more popular that way.
good point. i have seen a lot of piling on in threads.
