Untitled (rather too risky to title a thread these days, methinks)

[flaps]

I frequently find myself reading the title of a thread and "answering" it before then clicking and reading the actual post.

(I'd post the latest example which inspired this thread, but I'd rather not on the off-chance of hurting someone's feelings.)

To clarify, I'm not talking serious answers. Just silly (or sillier ), witty (or less than ) and maybe even somewhat sarcastic (or more than somewhat ) "off the top of one's head" kinda thoughts. Ninety-nine times out of a hundred (I find I do a lot of counting as well, but I digress), I chuckle to myself and hit the back button, realizing how seriously silly, downright dumb and/or incredibly inappropriate my first thought is with regards to what the post is actually about.

(You know it's gettin' pretty bad when ya find yourself doing a darn good imitation of Zeus-from-Hercules' *laughter* I KILL myself! *more laughter* for an audience of one. Unless you count the cat. )

So do you do it too?

Tell me I'm not the only one!

Of course, if I learn that I'm not the only one who does this, I'll be too paranoid to start any more threads (which could be a good thing ).

Then again, paranoid could compliment crazy quite well...

Oh Kild, Monkeyboy and Bob Slydell.....Yoo Hoo...where are you???

I am far to serious to play along with a game like that

Shame on you

 

[Bob Slydell]

Just never label a thread something like, "Am I crazy?"

"Monkeyboy" and "serious" do not belong in the same sentence unless you are saying "Monkeyboy has serious issues!"

Just kidding of course!

There have been several threads that I can't even post on. ONe of them is probably the reaon for this thread. Toom any things run through my mind. Now, if this were a more adult oriented board, things would be different.

Not that I post off topic anyway.

No worries. No need for me to ask. I already know the answer.

There are 2 threads right now that I am having a hard time not posting on. I laugh everytime I read them.

What game? And like what? Do you see "Game" as part of the title? Not trying to play a game.

Shame on you

Oh, THAT game.
