I AM a badass, on or off the interwebz. ✅ Unlike that perma-banned a**hole DK, I can actually back up my big mouth. (No, I'm not talking about internet words...I'm talking about real life. David was such a pissy confrontational a**hole. Why he hasn't horribly gotten his ass beaten in real life is beyond me....you never know, he might have.)
Lick deez nutz, bitches. Lick dem shitz! 😈
RJ's girl is going to be real, real mad at you if he ever gets it on with her. I'm sure that, if you continue this level of ferocious rod-polishing on the man, he's not going to have anything to please her with.
Seriously, the man's older than most people here, he can throw shit back at me if he thinks I'm insulting him, he doesn't need you to do it. Above that, he knows I wasn't. I was stating the obvious.
Any of these threads are essentially "Who likes you and who do you like?", RJ probably wouldn't even deny that. You don't need to jump at someone's aid just to show how much of a real friendship you have with them. You like RJ, we get it, but now's the time to chill before you two start developing a Mr. Smithers/Mr. Burns relationship.

To a certain extent, yes it is. But I am judging on who I would trust fully to be there for me. Like say you were a kickboxing champion, but I didnt trust you to back me up, why would I vote for you?So I guess friend/trust tie into one another.
Why, though?
You're one of the oldest people on this entire forum. Why would you want to find out who would back you up in a fight on here? Not only that, but why ask it on a forum full of kids, girls, mothers and fathers, who should be knowing better than to indulge such childishness? Like, I don't have personal issue with many people here, if any, but do any of you stop, look at what you're posting and sometimes think "I'm old enough to not be doing this."? Ever?
I'm genuinely curious, not trying to pick at you or anything. I just find myself personally baffled at some of your threads and am looking for insight on why you make them. No biggie, nothing personal. Your issue with Bardock is your own.

Why not?
Indulgence. Frankly, most, if not all, discussion on this forum (or any other) is pointless. Granted the OTF is petty but, I believe that's the point.
I don't mean to speak for others but, I see it as a place where people come to vent and or make small talk to feel better about themselves. There's nothing wrong with that.
You can easily live without conversing with people or putting your two cents online. People here obviously make time for it because they want to.
More specifically, why people have the desire to be validated could be attributed by a myriad of reasons. I.e. having a rough day, having a lack of a social life, vanity or it could be that some genuinely enjoy conversing over mundane subjects with others that they know and having that validation just makes them feel good.
It's all inconsequential. If there is something wrong with talking about ridiculous things it's probably not serious enough to matter.
I'd also like to say that anyone who took things too seriously in a discussion on a forum needs to reevaluate their priorities.

If anyone needs to look at what they are posting and say "WTF man,", it's you. People post in bullshit threads like this one because it's fun, but you feel the need to come and scold us. Doesn't matter if someone is 20, 30, 40 or 50, people DO like to have fun. Not EVERYONE signs onto the net to be an arrogant know it all, you know.

Originally posted by Bardock42It's ALL entertaining, man. No matter how goofy things get, no matter what the thread is about, it's a form of entertainment. Some people like having serious debates, some like RPGing, some write poetry here. Some like to talk about music. All entertainment.
It does beg the question why you think that it is "entertaining".
I can't think of many things that would be less fun.
You're right, though, yeah - it's all about entertainment. It's essentially the same as it is in real life; some people find reality tv and shit like that entertaining. Usually, those people are idiots, the same seems to be true for people who like posting in this forum.
Originally posted by Rogue JediTrue as that may be, it is not the question I was referring to. The question is, why is this (this thread in specific) entertainment to you"...but, I am just playing silly here anyways, since I derive entertainment from it I can relate, though, it would still be interesting to know what entertains you about it, which might be vastly different to what I find enjoyable.

Originally posted by Bardock42And why am I being asked this? Why not ask all who post here? Why not go into virtually thread in the OTF and ask KMCers why they are entertained by posting in the OTF?

Originally posted by Rogue JediFor one you created the thread. Another might be as AC said a pattern of similar threads you enjoy. A third might be a particular interest in your way of thinking as it seems very differnt to mine. A fourth would be that the argument that was going on was between you and others, so you, as a key player, might be asked a slightly related question.

Does that help?
Originally posted by Bardock42Hey, if I enjoy it, why question it? I don't question the air of superiority that some others like to emit here.

If they question me for being the way I am, sure, I might bring up that they are the way they are, and that they should just accept that I am the way I amit, as I accept them for the way they act.
Not everyone is going to act in such a fashion that you understand them. There are always going to be a few people that make you scratch your head and say WTF happened to them.?
Not everything needs to be understood. When someone starts questioning the way someone posts here, that someone doing the questioning needs to seriously take a stepback and ask themselves if they have too much time on their hands.
Bit ironic, isn't it?
Really, though, what is the problem with explaining why you enjoy something? Obviously I can understand that you might feel it is a trap to argue with you or something, but really, wouldn't just explaining why you like such kinds of threads be easier and likely faster than that post you just gave, with less chance of causing some sort of fight?
Originally posted by Bardock42Because I shouldn't have to explain it. I shouldn't have to break it down why I have such an immature sense of humor. I like them because I like them, that's it, plain and simple.

I am not going to waste time explaining why, I just do. There is a time and a place for everything, and to me, this is the place I come to kick back and be the immature man that I am.

Also fair enough, I guess that immaturity prohibits you from seeing the value in a discussion about the different ways of entertainment. THough I am not sure I'd enjoy it either...I did enjoy this though...so all for the better I figure.
