I gotta say it

[Deleted User]

Having an "Ask me anything" posts every night takes away the fun of really getting to know someone that you are interested in.

I absolutely adore knottie polls, but again, having one every other night takes away the fun. And if all of the questions are "who would you make love to in a spaceship with a banana?". They don't really mean anything, ya know?

Now you go.

Um... isn't Nebb the universal answer to that question?

I know what you mean cew.  We need to think of some either fun topics or we need to start slinging controversial conversation pieces up in this bitch.

I think kpwedkk is a great knottie, but her avatar looks like burns and/or raw meat because it's so small.  I know it's henna, but every time I look at it I think about burns and raw meat.  This makes me like her less because I can't shake the mental association.

NS - I thought the same thing I was so relieved when I found out otherwise.

I think everyone loves VegasGroom so much simply because he's an anomaly.  I don't think he's that great or contributes much of anything to this board in general, except a penis.

:) I just think they would be more fun if we waited a little while in between them.

Also, I would be interested in a AMA thread from you because you've been around forever and it's fun to ask you questions that I know would be relevant to your life (like KW did one the other day that I read because it was interesting since she's been around forever too). Newbs, not so much. Mainly because I don't know enough about them to ask good questions.

I vote this. I'm sick of candy buffet talk, let's get to the good sh!t.

I think Blue overuses the whole unicorn hair thing.

kd.joseph

I gotta say it's been dead in here lately. We need something exciting, who's getting married,having babies........etc.

Or Cew can just start stripping for us. I saw a portable pole when we stopped at the Hustler store the other day.

AllAboutTheBenjamin

Effing candy buffets.

Unpopular opinion threads are kinda overdone too... Maybe not too many lately but for a while there I felt like they were happening all the time.  And then most of the same stuff gets talked about.

I do have to agree with this.  Having a penis is not enough to make you interesting, but it seems to work magic 'round these here parts.  I'm not sure I get it.

[Deleted User]

I rarely ask any questions during the "lurker coming out" posts for that reason, I don't know them at all. I think I've only done so once, maybe twice, because I was super bored.

I'd like to get to know most people here more by asking questions relevant to their lives, rather than the crazy spaceship questions. And when doing the knottie polls, I swear my brain freezes and I can only think of like 3 people.

Ooh, this. I'm not around a ton, but I do wonder what all the hype is about. Like yesterday, he was a little judgy about my MH thread, but when I clarified, he said he "didn't even know what the thread was about." It was kind of... slippery and non-committal. Like dude, just say what you want to say, I love a good debate. :) We're all adults here.

missy68

I've actually seen Vegas give out some good advice (it may have been on another board). I like having him around.
I mean, he can't actually answer a BCP question or a Spanx question, but he's fun.

And I like that he doesn't look for validation for everything he does.

MeaghanandMichael

I think this place has gotten too 'nice.' Just reading the pink and black weddings thread and people talking about how certain colors made them think of stupid/lame things made me want to start a golf clap. I know it was not a big deal, but it made me happy to see people finally voicing and opinion for once on something.

I also wonder where all the crazy went. How were we getting 9587984 posts a day asking about huge wedding debacles and now there are none. That is weird to me.

I agree with the too nice.  I mean, no we don't need to be cutthroat bitches or anything like that, or unecessarily mean...but hot damn, if someone has a bad idea, it's ok to tell them that it's a bad idea.  It's possible to do that in such a way where you don't give them PTSD.

Shh, we have to add the "adult" part so that when Cew starts stripping, we're not violating anyone's legal rights. ;)

Night_Sprite

I'm kind of sad that we're dead, but it seems like there is always a knot-wide lull in the fall.  People used to gripe about it for days on end on E.  Then with holiday engagements, things pick up.  I don't know that it's something to fuss about.

I guess I've missed the good advice.  Any advice I've seen him give has come with what feels like condescension to me.  But, just my opinion.

AllAboutTheBenjamin

Vegas having a penis is not that interesting.  Cew has a flucking penis on her face.  That's way more cool.

missy68

I'm glad the PANIC thread went the way it did. Too many people ask for medical advice. No one here should give it, beyond, do I cover a burn with butter or not? And boy did she get defensive about being told to ask a doctor.

And you can google that.

Anysunrise

I have nothing to contribute beyond how hungry Beatle's sig makes me. Clearly what this place needs is more tacos.

MeaghanandMichael

And yes, in regards to AMA or daily update posts on drama, I don't think people get the severe eye roll level this is reaching. I mean, yes, we all love to hear drama but not every day updates, or even every day updates on what you had for lunch or are doing later. This board is beginning to reflect the inane fb status updates we hate so much.

Also, what is with people starting new threads about stuff already hashed out that day? Some one started a facebook funnies/annoyances thread and then later that day (maybe 2-3 hours later) some one started their own thread about something posted on their facebook wall. NO. That is called being a PW. I guess I have been here too long, but all knot rules seem to never be enforced any more.

Sorry, sorry, my bad.  I can't help that I've been working 56 hours a week and I'm not here to liven the place up ;)

I agree with the too nice thing. I would never want the board to be a hateful place just looking to flame newbs to release steam, but I feel like we tip toe around eachother sometimes. It's okay to disagree. It doesn't mean I don't like you. It just means I think you're an idiot. Not really.

MarriedInAFever

I agree.

I particularly enjoy J&K's lunch + controversial question threads.

I do think things got rather disgusting with the KPScallouts, especially the ones wanting/suggesting different people should die. I think that was worthy of us all taking a step back to regroup. That being said, I am done acting like the KPScallout site needs to determine how people feel around here. I know why we played nice for a while but I think there is really not reason to tread lightly anymore.
