I’m finding I waste too much of my time here. But I enjoy it. After seven months of marginal employment I like the adult contact.
But you–why are you spending too much of your time here?
im here cuz its late at night, for once i dont work tomorrow, my damn boyfriend has to sleep cuz he does, and i was too lazy to try and call up anyone else and get out of the house. sad, aint it?
Hey, I just stumbled across this place a couple of weeks ago, and I’m trying to avoid thinking about why I got hooked so easily.
If I find out it is an unhealthy attachment of some sort I would feel honor bound to quit-
and I don’t want to.
(My hands are over my ears and I AM NOT LISTENING!)

I’m here for the free food.
I keep asking myself the same question -
Why am I here?
I think its the same thing as cigarettes, sex and drugs
ITS ADDICTIVE!!
'Cuz my hubby, Mr Bear to you, just left on a plane and he won’t be back for a long, long time. 
Wait, that’s what I said in February too! :eek: Well, it’s the truth, only this time it’ll be even longer til he comes back.
Meantime, I have too much time to think and be sad, and I’d rather flirt and laugh on here. 
I’m here because:
[shameless suckup]
This is the coolest board I’ve found in the past 6 weeks.
[/shameless suckup]
Anyway, it’s true… Some places feel right, others don’t.
I come to see all the smiling faces… Ooops, sorry Chief
Gawd, it IS addictive, isn’t it? Pleasant conversations with fun, witty, intelligent people. Even on the BBQ Pit. They call THAT flaming? More like medium salsa. Hot enough to get your interest, but mild enough that you can still taste the food.
dropzone,
(a quick word of advice, the Pit is Very quiet at the moment… just wait until it heats up…)
I cant remember who said it, but this board is as addictive as Caramel covered Crack
Addicted? Me? Ha! I can walk away any time I want! What? Why are you guys laughing at me? Stop that! OK, fine then, here I go! See, I’m leaving! I’m walking out the door right now…Oooohh, I wonder what’s in this thread? Hey, I’ll talk to you guys later, I have to go read this thread…and this thread…and…
Maybe the Pit is quiet now, but I plan to stay away from it if I can. My first encounter with a BBS (back in '83) was so nasty that I stayed offline for years after. Vicious, childish attacks for no reason.
True flaming always makes the flamer seem like a badly-socialized seventh grader. If the flamee deserves to be attacked like that he (is it always a he?) can be thrown off by the moderators.
Because in my entire, huge, overpopulated office, only three people have a sense of humor! I swear, it’s like Stepford Wives—I can go up to my co-workers and make a wisecrack, and they will get this concerned look on their face while they think, “that was a joke. Some kind of response is required.” Then they will go “ha. ha.” It’s scary.
So I thoroughly enjoy trading quips and parrying cracks with you guys—a very witty and clever group.
And where else would I be able to find out if Hassids can smoke? If Shania Twain is in a no-sex cult? What Satan’s ass looks like? And see no-holds-barred mud wrestling over smoking, religion and gun control?
It’s FUN! Thank goodness I’m not on-line at home, or I’d never get anything done . . .
I second Eve - this is just so much more entertaining and educational than work. And it is addictive.
where else are cow god’s supposed to go?
Where else can you find the Cowgood when you feel a need for bovine intervention?
Dropzone-
I can see that I lead a sheltered life.
If you think that the BBQ pit is tame, let me direct you to the “Shedding negative thoughts! Rant about my life” thread over there.
Burned my eyebrows off, and I don’t even know the people involved, let alone what they are referring to. Certain things are clear, and understandable. The rest is SCARY!
I’m planning on minding my tongue, that’s for sure.
Still, Kricket and Brunetter seem to have handled it better than one would have expected.
At least this one.
I applaud them for not turning this thread into world war III.

I avoid The Pit. There’s enough nastiness in the world that I’m not going to look for it. But if anybody comes over here looking for trouble (pulling myself up to my full height, loosening the guns in my holster, and grabbing the lapels of my embroidererd vest and getting a very serious look on my face), I guess I’ll have to, well, ma’am I’d just have to, uh, go running for unclebeer, crying and saying that they’re picking on me!
I left for three months, no problem. I came back, but I will never visit the Pit again. Flame me all you want there, I won’t see it. Just like TheIncredibleHolg. Way too much negative energy there for someone like me. I was in the About this message board yesterday, looking for the TOC, and did I get an eyefull. Won’t go there again either. This is a fun place, but stay out of the pit if you’re thin skinned (hah hah, me make a funny).
I just set myself up, didn’t I?
