Yes, but I also like some levity tossed in for good measure.

And did your fecal thread matter, or were you particularly serious about it? Just asking.  |

I think Horatio is pretty serious about his poop.

Hmmm...when I post a subject I'm serious - rather I'm looking for answers...

Horatio
When I post on other forums, I tend to generally stay on topic.
But EE is a whole nother ballgame.
It's appeal is that it is so OT.

The more personal the question is, the more likely I'll be to stay on topic. So, if you want to discuss what car you want or how to do something, no problem. If it's more of a general discussion especially one that gets into government policy I'm going to likely stay away because they usually end up with people just stating their position. There's no real discussion. If I enjoyed that, I'd be on the P&M board.

Does Clark Howard have a discussion board on his site?

And it's nice that someone recognizes that we're not always total drunken idiots. Yes, there is a ton of inanity here, but there are also some really bright people here who prefer silly banter rather than discuss the problems of the world. |

"That is one of the reasons I liked Paul so much, right or wrong he believes his opinion is right."
Paul parrots Rush. And I also think he's bi-polar, but that's just my opinion........

Yes, there is a ton of inanity here, but there are also some really bright people here who prefer silly banter rather than discuss the problems of the world. There are some really funny people here too. Ugg, stupid computer connection lost my all my thoughtful spewing... I can "do" serious, and if a poster needs something we usually try to help, with occasional "fun" bits thrown into it. My life is way too serious and I'm a pretty serious person, that's why I love it here, it's a place "just for fun" and I really need that. I like the fact that we have pretty good "poster-to-poster" banter and it's not just everyone saying "this is what I have to say" and that's it. |

"Banned," they say. "Don't worry," they say. But beneath their words lurks a dark, terrible secret.

Horatio, You have a Wide Range of interests and curiosities. I like reading your threads. Post some threads and hang out with us and try not to get so mad that you delete your posts. If you leave them up... after some time of reflection, we all get to be on the same page. [ I especially liked your Cheeto's thread]  |

I don't know - I've never seen one. How would any of us know, as it doesn't appear like we have ever tried.

Do you like serious discussions here or not so much? I mean in addition to the serious discussion on alcohol and such? I like serious and INTERESTING discussions here, along with sex, booze, and rock and roll. |
