I sure am.

Not interested in a thread? How about, don't click on the motherfucker, instead of clicking, reading, replying, finding a URL to your funny little fuckin' picture, and hitting post?

I agree, but how can anyone know if a story sucks until they read it?

Cool story bro!

If you haven't figured out how to tell the wheat from the chaff after 7,000 posts, maybe you aren't getting as much as you thought out of your arfcom experience.

Besides, what really pisses me off is that countless bad posts have been made better by the responses. When people have to think about writing something witty or scathing, they come up with entertaining stuff. When they just have to post a "super cool story, bro", because they think it'll make them cool in the eyes of fucking 4chan or something, then we just end up with stupid fucking posts with 800 stupid fucking pointless responses.

I'm tired of it.

Good writing takes effort, and these slackjawed hillbilly yokels should stop relying on the google images crutch.

Uh, I have never posted that stupid pic during my time here.

I don't see how you can predict if a story is going to suck before you even click on it.

It's just a temporary thing that will pass like all the others before it. Giving it attention doesn't help your cause.

I know I invited it, but just because a hooker spreads her legs doesn't mean you have to dive right in.

It's not really being used properly.

There are times where it is being used totally irresponsibly.

I pick 'Lets bludgeon...' because that was a cool poll selection.

The "this shit is getting old" post with 80 "no it isn't, here, look!" responses is a necessary stage in the evolutionary cycle of memes. It appears several weeks or possibly up to two months before the meme becomes completely uncool. Without it, things just go on.

Yeah, if you have been here three years, with over 12,000 posts, and you find that shit funny after seeing it a BAZILLION times, shut the computer off, and go outside. Your brain (the moosh that is left), is leaking out of your ears.

And don't make with some lame-ass excuse. Go back, edit your post, and then get some fresh air. When you come back, try to resist the urge to post, period.

Well, I guess I just don't let stupid shit bother me that bad. There are much more important things to worry about.

People want good drama instead of Meme's...

For example:

It's about as cool as, In one one, IBTL, and jackasses who post them same reply as 50 other members before them. Most of it's post whoring, but most of the "cool story bro" replies I've seen were IMHO justified.

Well, gosh, you're right, I feel a sudden need to rethink my life, because I spent all of eight fucking minutes typing out a rant against fuckheads who bolster their inability to articulate their thoughts by relying on stock footage for their posts.
