I dont think reading all this is good for ones mind.

I liked the Amish thread though.

You hit the nail on the head.
Every second thread is moaning about or begruding someone else.

I refuse to believe recession has made people that way. I reckon recession has just given people an outlet to voice what they've always been.

Yeah, there's a lot of repeating alright. Typically the big topics are something some-what interesting but collapse into generic religious/race/government "debates" and what-not. I tend to got caught up in these because I'm an obnoxious asshole who likes others to hear my opinions.

That happens a lot.

I reckon we set up a thread complaining about this thread, which in itself complains about other threads.

you'd definitely get attacked for being a single mother the most on here. But then again, you'd get attacked for saying you earn 1 euro more than someone else.

I remember that thread. Actually posted in it too.
That was a load of bollocks. Not saying that the op was lying. Just that if you had a mental housemate and that something serious could happen why post it on here. All you'll be doing is giving entertainment for people who dont give 2 f**ks. Cause god forbid something did happen and the op got cut say, posted it, ... all you'll get is BS replies with "oh my god op, are you ok? *hmmm I wonder whats on tv?* "

It was the funniest thread I read on here. Priceless. Could well have been bs, but the added tags and the smart ars3ry were hilarious!
