It’s not as entertaining. YOU should know that.

Why do people even care about what’s said there?  
99% of the stuff written isn’t true anyway, so why get in a huff?

C’mon, now really, how many people beleive that Guin’s teeth are so bad that she could eat corn through a chain link fence?

If I recall (that Community has since been deleted) she even laughed at that.

Well, of course they shouldn’t believe that. That would require that I actually HAVE teeth in the first place.

Oh, man. Now I’m getting slagged by one of the most respected posters and moderators here. Being Gumby sure doesn’t get the respect it used to.

Just a note … it’s not necessary to be a member of the SDMB to post in an SDMB-related community on LiveJournal. Since this board can be read by anyone, it could be, literally, any of the more than six billion people on this planet who are participating in the anonymous communities. It could be folks who were banned from here, folks who were in a band here, or folks who banded together here.

In other words (and as has been said before) … ain’t no way to tell. So why worry about it?
