It's true. You're entitled to your opinion.

[lumberjim]

it's true that she ceases being 'good people' if she disagrees with you?

You have see me state that I dislike threads about religion?
Can I have some of your dope?

There's a difference between avoiding threads you don't like and avoiding threads about something you vehemently disagree with or feel strongly about.

I don't like them. I've played along for a while, but they're getting very tedious and they're cluttering up the board.

Yep, I think the best thing to do would be to open a new forum for 'personal threads' or whatever. I used to sometimes post on a board where every member had their own 'kissy' thread where people could go and post mushy bullshit online crap to their cyber friends. I found the whole concept vomitious and avoided that forum like the plague (pardon the pun). It worked though because there was nowhere near the level of crap floating around the other forums because the people who wanted to play in those sorts of threads did so.

This week on the cellar, they're in several different forums and I think it's simply annoying to sift through the shit to find the stuff worth reading.

you mean like the 3 pages of you and dana, or ducks, or whoever.... chatting in the middle of an otherwise 'normal' thread? yeah. i could see that.

[Aliantha]

It's not the same thing and you know it.

[lumberjim]

ya, know what? i think we should all just shut the fuck up.

[Aliantha]

yeah, except you know that's not going to happen.

Don't you think it'd be a better idea to put these nonsense threads about particular cellarites in the one forum especially dedicated to those types of thread?

[lumberjim]

wouldn't make any diff to me. I browse by clicking the 'new posts' or 'today's posts' links. i pretty much completely ignore what forum a thread is in. I actually only notice it when i'm deciding where to put a new thread.

that's why i say it's better to have a thread about nothing than to shit up a thread about something.

but then i think........shut the fuck up.

it doesn't matter either way, really. what matters is that we are all good friends, having fun, laughing. or making fun of wankers like spexxvet!

[Aliantha]

So were you being sarcastic with that last line? Particularly the part about us all being good friends etc?

I don't think spex is a wanker.

[jinx]

Ron Burgundy: We are laughing and we are very good friends. Good buddies sharing a special moment...
Brian Fantana: Don't say anything Ron and just let it happen.
Ron Burgundy: ...laughing and enjoying our friendship, and someday we'll look back on this with much fondness.
Brian Fantana: Yeah, yeah.

[Aliantha]

OH well, no wonder I didn't get it. I saw that movie...unfortunately. I didn't tickle my funny bone.

That's the attraction of those threads: some of the nicer people hang out in them and you're not there. Good boy.
