    In other news: I have learned from MFP that dating sites are scary as *kitten* and to be avoided at all costs. I mean, for me it's not a problem.. but daaaaaaaang, I would worry about any of my few friends who use those sites (men or women) when and if they chose to use them. Yeesh.

    I've learned that no one is around these parts on weekends or evenings.
    What's up with that?

    That's when my husband ties me up in the basement.

    I've learned you can't click 'awesome' and 'insightful' for same post. It's one or the other but you can't do both. The bastids... B)

    I didn't know we were allowed in the selfie thread. I thought those 5 people owned it.

    I've learnt words are not near as satisfying as actually being able to thump someone :#
    Oh and Im going to start a clique for the cliqueless :p
    Annnnd there are wankers about here but that's what ignore is for so it's all good. Although we need to be able to ignore more than 5 :laugh:

    There's a limit to how many people you can ignore? That's something new I learned.

    See I never knew this! I kept getting friend request from creepy looking dudes and was like nope. Now I know why!!!

    I'm here for support, motivation and use of the tool MFP was made for. I add girls on here with similar goals or fellow vegetarians so I can creep diaries for ideas and to be like, if that girl is my size and doing it, I can too. Craziness.

    Some people don't get that you are here for health, friends, support and some inocente fun!

    If you wanna find a fling there's a bunch of others sites to go!

    Some people misunderstand you and text is not the best way sometimes to make judgment on ones personality

    Support your friends thru their battles, be kind, be fun, be naughty but always with respect ✊

    In my case I come here mostly on the week during the day and a bit before bed on weekends I'm always out and about grocery shopping, exercising, walking, biking, hiking enjoying the 2 days of the week me and my bf have together! I think. That's what happens to most people enjoying the free time and the summer when winter comes I bet there's going to be more of us here during the weekend specially me lolo don't like the cold and living in the city the snow part is not pretty all slush :(

    I've learned it's a very bad idea to share your MFP affair stories among other MFPrs. The word WILL get around. Folks will get mad, rage quit, come back and start more drama.

    I also learned someone will always complain about things not belonging on a fitness site blah blah blah.

    Having posts overlooked and keeping everything locked down to the point that few have any interest in being "friends" will be a good thing in the long run.

    I have found their are a handful of Mfp friends that actually make for good friends outside of just the Mfp app.

    Some are here to get their friends count as high as possible!

    Most People would rather hit "like" instead of commenting

    If you lucky you will find a person that motivates you and you can share dirty thoughts :)

    That if the people ive seen on these forums posting for years were actually serious about fitness, they would all be instagram models by now. Majority of people in the forums only have fit fingers.

    I disagree with the instagram models thing. Not everyone is an attention hoor. Although there are PLENTY on here that's for sure.

    I learned that if you search google images for any mfp username, you just might find your own picture. :o

    I've seen this too, especially if they've quoted you in the selfie thread or vice versa

    Yes or if they've quoted you in ANY thread.
