    I was wondering what brings you all here, delusions of grandeur, a need for online contact or what?

    Myself, its a bit of all four. I find it useful to test my knowledge and argumentative skill against others in the relatively harmless and neutral arena this forum provides. And its also interesting to see the thoughts going on, and the ideas and ideologies unveiled.

    That is a big part of my reason too. I would rather read rants and raves here than watch 99% of TV... and I have a Tivo!

    use it or loose it
    not exactly but kinda close to it
    tv progs make you more stupid in genral so you will watch more and more bad progs in an ever decreasing escalator to
    stupid-dom
    real pretend people are more interesting than wanna bee famouse people with no talent.

    how much tv would be left if you stopped the police and medical tv programs
    do police and medical people realy want to come home and watch pretend badly aucustrated programs about what they might have done that day?

    on the same bassis or retarded reverse logic i assume they would want to watch people in office blocks doing cash flow forcasts and profit and loss accounts
    ooppss ive just outlined most of the day time soaps
    with the " ohh i realy care if you do care that i care mostly"
    "will you be buggering bobs second wifes mistress under the dinner table while the granchildren have thier birthday dinner"
    (as the maids homosexual X girlfriends brothers aunt gets brutaly stabbed in the romantic chappel by the vicar who is actual a well meaning fugative and romantic lover of little miss
    "apple-my-daisey" the virgin slut from next door.
    LOL

    The only other way to interact with this many lunatics would be to have myself committed to an institution!

    The sad thing is that there is a time and a place for everything, and a lot of the things discussed on here cannot really be discussed face to face with someone. Thank goodness for the internet! Before these times books must have been the only answer!

    What shall we use to fill the empty spaces,
    Where we used to talk?
    How shall I fill the final places?
    How shall I complete the wall?
