Why Do We Like Em Soo Much


Recommended Posts

I love to see the ban threads come up.. Maybe its the intrigue of what was said. Maybe it was being present at the time of the offense and knowing full well it was coming.. Maybe its the Midieval/Gladiator-esk fun of watching someone being beaten by a ban hammer.. Kinda like watching a train wreck..

what ever it is I LOVE IT!! post-5619-1201289386.gif

The vacation threads are fun because you get to see your friends smacked down and they probably wrote shit on your vacation thread when you screwed up.

Ban threads are fun because we get to see idiots, spammers, and other deserving people get what they deserve. Happens so rarely in the real world. smile.gif

I always feel left out because the comments leading to the ban are deleted before I get a chance to read them.... Fail

its too influential, i know there are people thinking swine flu is going to be the next pandemic, and i'm sure there are some stations making it out as such, bird flu was supposed to kill us all, i once heard someone say 90 percent of the human race would be wiped out by bird flu, and my all time favorite...
what the hell happened to sars?

I like being here 2 years this summer, being pretty outspoken and walking the line a bit, but never having been banned!

Yes, I have been very very close before. This was also before the rules were pushed so hard and this place became a finely tuned machine. AKA: pre red mushrat days.


Also, it's fun when you know you helped them get banned after you tried to tell them they messed up and they argued with you. then, BYE BYE!

Winston Churchill once said something to the effect of:"People are wondering why audiences pack into auditoriums to hear me speak. I would remind everybody, that if I were being executed, the crowds would be twice as large."

That might explain why the ban threads are popular. Maybe not. Maybe I just wanted to get a Churchillism into conversation.

whats funny is people will read and comment in the ban threads then immediately get banned... sometimes from the stuff they post in the ban thread. it's almost like they feel left out

Schadenfreude.

Taking pleasure (not in a twisted way, just sort of watching in fascination) in others' misery.


Very true infact!!
