Why So Serious???

LJV1031

I have only recently started answering posts in the Chit Chat category, but I notice quite a few people go on a post OBVIOUSLY not about diet or fitness, then judge people for having a little fun on the boards. Why bother even reading a post that makes its intentions obvious, whether it is about a joke, a rating, or anything else potentionally silly? It would make more sense to me that you stick to what you're interested in & move on... ESPECIALLY if you are on the ONE board that is intended for topics outside of the normal fitness, diet, success stories of this site. Now my last question is............. What do you think of the original poster??? Lol... J/k... Maybe.

I myself find it great fun to argue with people. A little conflict is good for you and I have zero in real life:laugh:

these pics are awesome..:laugh:

Lol, love the pics. As for arguing is fun... I actually agree that arguing or better yet debating is entertaining for all involved... Especially the ones reading said arguments, but to go on a post titled "who would you date?" (just making that title up, though it might be out there) and say "This is stupid. This is a fitness site, go on FB with that" or something similar just doesn't make sense to me. :ohwell:

I couldn't agree more. It blows my mind when you see those "This isn't about weightloss and has no business on this site!" posts in this part of the forum. Some people just love to play jr. moderator. Usually without reading any of the rules..

And if you like debate we have a group for that... Debatable Debating. Where all the real fighting happens!

I enjoy a good debate/discussion. You can call it arguing. :-) That's kind of the backbone of the United States government system. I sat through a public hearing last night for almost three hours of people doing in person what we do here. It's interesting and fun.

But you'll never see me complain about off-topic threads or obvious jokes. That's just a lack of humor and no one who lacks humor is any fun. Ever.

You're wrong and you suck

My favorite rebuttal most commonly used.

LJV1031

Lol. I agree RV88. All of you are hilarious. Glad no one got oh so serious on this post. Though, there's still time. :sad:

Hellbent_Heidi

I often wonder the same thing...why reply to a post just to complain about the question, or if you have nothing to offer? Some people just like being jerks I guess....

@ColumbianWarrior...seriously dude, I'm gonna have nightmares about that cat! :laugh:

_binary_jester_

Or this?

I have not seen this one. Much thanks.

I probably am wrong. And I've been known to suck.

But I'm still fun. :-)

I actually (and I'm not kidding) dreamed last night that I friended you on here and then immediately deleted you because it was a mistake and I didn't want you to know.

I think that means I spend too much time here ...
