Don't Read This Thread!!1

Post by theCryptofishist » Tue Feb 22, 2011 9:45 am

Sometimes you don't know you shouldn't read a thread. Sometimes you know because of who started it. Sometimes you've opened it before and spent the next hour bleaching your brain to remove the stain. Sometimes you can even tell from the title--if you apply a little intuition.
This, however, is the one and only thread that let's you know by its very existence that you shouldn't read it.
Posting is okay, though.

Don't worry, I just skipped to the bottom to make a comment. Most often you cannot be certain of the things you do not know. By not reading this thread, this puts me safely in that category. I will not, however, allow that to impinge on my right to comment with my thoughts on the matter. It is what it is, and will be what it will be.

Absolutely not. Open discussion is fair game from the word go.

Okay. I didn't.

I lie.

I don't care.

I am too apathetic to snark properly.

What a stupid, waste of a thread. Just more clutter for some silly non-sense.

Just because you can start a new thread doesn't mean you should.

Really juvenile.
