Dislikes not wasting your time on the forums
Thread Rating:
You know if I don't like a restaurant I avoid it. If I don't like him a particular retail store or shopping center I avoid it. If I don't enjoy or find interesting that benefits myself, I do not buy into it, bringing myself down and sliding into negativity and feeding into something that somebody or something else is it tempting to accomplish.
I thought when I signed on this board that everybody was intelligent and interesting and sharing ideas and nurturing each other and I find a lot of that is not what's happening in so many ways. With several of the more high profile long-term members certainly attempt at stick their fork into the subject matter in the hopes to cause drama in my opinion. Kind of what they're doing would be the same as going to a movie theater for the second time after they seen a movie that they did not like or enjoyed and complaining all the way through it.
Why waste you valuable and irreplaceable time? Why?

You are twisting and turning what i wrote. I'm not going to accuse you of lying but you are definitely twisting and turning and putting words into my post.
I merely asked why you guys would waste your valuable and precious time that's Irreplaceable with hatred and negativity.

Quote: ChumpChangeI hated 95% of the people on the poker newsgroup 15 years ago, simply because they'd hate me. I'd try to walk softly and not become a target. I never really did become a target, but that was a 100% hateful place to be. Maybe they'd be in QAnon by now hoping to get their online poker back.
Excellent input thanks for your time. :)

Rush Limbaugh
Howard Stern
Tom Leykis
All three of these men have or had a dedicated base of listeners who hated them. Leykis in particular got women who hated him and everything he said to call in and would ask them why they just did not change the station. Limbaugh put those who disagreed with him to the front of the line and always looked good. Stern, well, I was never a fan so I never listened, but he got the haters to listen.
And then there is Donald Trump. Go over to DT and look at how many people who hated him yet made him the center of their lives.
There is something about some people who like to tune in to things they hate. Not all people of course, but enough that you wonder why they follow what they hate so much. But "why?"
Could be some anthropological need for a certain amount of abuse. Could be nothing better to do with their time. Could be they hate it but missing it makes them miss out on other things in life like being at the water cooler and you missed Kramer's first name revealed.

Check out my thread
The REAL adventures of terapined

No negativity
Except for a coachbelly post in my thread. I thought it was snarky and therefore negative but what can you do. Those types haunt these forums
Anyway
My thread is
All positive

Interesting factual reading
