BWAHAHAH. Post of the day. :beer: :cookie;

Erm even though it was posted 2 hours and 16 minutes earlier by Yossarian?
Umm, that was the whole point. That's why I thought it was funny. He got "post anxiety," skipped all of the responses and posted something that was already said. Rudder gets bonus points for picking that post as opposed to some generic/nonfunny one.

edit: unless I'm reading too much into rudder's response....

that's like 4 layers of funny too deep for me.

I don't get "post anxiety" but I do tend to pass on posting in threads with a bunch of posts in them because it just seems pointless. Most of the time someone else has already expressed my sentiments.

Ditto. My terrible off color joke was probably already made by some one else. In fact, it may have already been made several times.

The only time I brave extremely long threads is when I'm very bored or the topic is very interesting. After about 3 pages, no one reads anything but the OP before posting anyway, so I'm really just talking to myself.

Just look at that thread about pepper spraying the couple, how many times in the last two pages have new posters been told to go back and read the thread?

Huh, I got it right away. Thought it was pretty clever.

1. Dick size does not equate in any way to emotions
2. That was sort of lame anyway
3. Intimidated is definetally far too strong of a word
4. People that make small dick jokes...have small dicks 😉

Chalk it up to post anxiety.
 
Post anxiety? More like there's already 40 posts, so the thread has probably already degraded to petty arguments and nowhere near the original topic.
 
ya, i get post anxiety (im hung too)

just not 5 minutes ago i was writing up a thread about montel williams using marijuana but decided against it. i dont know why i didnt post it, there was a huge marijuana destroyed my life thread earlier and i think it would have provided some interesting points but.... i guess it was post anxiety that got me
 
Oh, great. Tomorrow, we'll be seeing a pharmaceutical company advertising another tranquilizer to deal with this "illness".

"do you use an internet forum and get afraid to post? You are not alone. You may have IFAD (internet forum anxiety disorder). The cause is uncertain, but symptoms include an inability to post information that might lead to subsequent replies. Ask your doctor whether Postectra is right for you. Side effects may include sexual disfunction (although studies show that the average forum user, regardless of age, is a virgin), senstivity to sunlight (although studies show the average forum user gets about 30 seconds of sunlight a day), and asthma"

My favorites are the ones that just show people being being happy or whatever, and don't give any information about what made-up illness the drug is supposed to treat, you're just supposed to ask your doctor if it's right for you. Also I like the ones where they say to tell you doctor if you have AIDS or liver damage or whatever before you take it. I thought that the doctor was supposed to tell you if you have AIDS or whatever.
 
I am the ultimate thread killer. About half of my posts have been the last post in that thread, or it at least seems so. This is most likely due to the fact that I have the charisma of a small raddish.
