Just curious. I've asked several of my friends to join these forums for the P&N and after reading it they said no thanks. They said they would get angry and they don't want to waste their time talking to people like us. :(

So, Do you get angry?

I dont get happy or angry, I come here to inform myself. And if I have the chance to, inform the misinformed.

But I love to pwn some tools when I get the oppurtunity :laugh:

there've been a couple threads that made me angry, but I've always made an effort to stay away from them.

I think this is an internet forum and as such laughter is a good thing, and anger needs to be short lived. It's not like any of us are very important with any real control over the world, and it's not like those in power care a rat's behind what we think.

We are just opinionated SOBs who sometimes get carried away, but should never take ourselves too seriously.

I laugh all the time here. :D If people get "mad"(for real) on the intarweb they need to rethink their participation in whatever it is they were involved with.

Anyway, laughing is good for you - it's how I keep myself fit and trim:p

Hmmm.. sounds like something I've said. Of course, I still haven't seen a quote in which they did make such a claim.

I don't get mad, that would be pretty stupid as it's an internet forum.

I'll tell you what, I used to take myself WAY more seriously when I first got here than I do now. Every once in a while I get frustrated with a particular thread/topic, but not usually angry...

Ya, sometimes I get Angry. Most of the time I laugh, though sometimes it for a funny, other times it's from shock and dismay.

these forums make me want to hug everyone.

Currently there is one saying that Bush, Cheney et al, NEVER said that Iraq had anything to do with 9-11.
they never said sadam was directly involved in 9/11

Nope, never. :p

Edit: Ack - archived! Oh well. I have gotten angry at times, but now I like to think I'm much better at just letting most things roll right off.

Edit 2: Yah - link fixed. ;)

This place is full of comedy. I love this forum, but I can understand how some people get angry. There are some real whackos here - see my sig for one.

This place is second only to The Daily Show :D

You know what would be funny? Seeing some of the Bush supporters from here on the Daily Show arguing with Jon Stewart a la Crossfire.

Get angry? Nah, it's impossible for me to get angry from read something on a internet forum. Do I laugh? Not really. Though I have found myself amused at the sheer absurdity of some claims made.

What could encite more laughter than all the good news coming from Iraq?

The tin foil hat conspiracies are amusing...and the constant stream of Bush threads is always a riot...how many threads do we need for bashing the President anyway...can't we just have one consolidated anti-Bush thread?

That link was sent to me by a LTC who is currently serving in Iraq and managing infrastructure construction projects in the Iron Triangle...there are plenty of good news stories in Iraq, but such stories don't sell newspapers.
