Ok, LIFers...be honest...

When you happen to catch a post that you know is going to explode...do you find yourself coming back to it to watch the horrible aftermath?

I swear, this in no way had to do with the explosions happening on the "icicle lights" thread. Chat Icon

I didn't even open that thread.... now you're going to make me peek to see what on earth the controversy could be about christmas lights Chat Icon

nah..... usually, when people post acerbic/controversial threads, I think to myself 'oh, here we go again Chat Icon '

if it happens too frequently, I actually log-on less frequently. I hate witnessing arguments Chat Icon

Who would think there would be drama disguised in a holiday light thread!? Chat Icon

Nobody would even notice until it got to 5 pages or so since holiday light discussions never garner that many posts or an insane number of views. Chat Icon

Re: Ok, LIFers...be honest...

ok, read the thread..... and as usual, it's controversial and offensive.... in a non-thought-provoking and unproductive way

a definite 'should miss reading' situation

Depends on the subject - 9 times out of 10 I usually miss all the drama and I usually never respond bc its not worth getting all worked up about!

I very rarely log on to LIF from work so usually the drama ia 10 pages long & thoroughly rehashed by the time I read it. If I see the thread that was interesting or sometimes entertaining I will open it again the next day if I see it at the top of a forum. I don't check back regularly to see though. BTW I just read the icicle thread too...yup somehow even the boring home board can have dramaChat Icon

It's not drama. People sometimes display their intelligence and perception of others in their own way. It befuddles me...Chat Icon

I missed this debate but after reading this thread I had to sneak a peak. I busted out laughing after reading the response "let's hear if for the ghetto!!"

I think it depends- if its a serious topic (like the thread about the police shooting a few weeks ago) then I don't find it "entertaining" - its too much of a serious topic to enjoy people getting upset about.

However, if its about the ghetto-ness of icicle lights, then its hilarious. Chat Icon

Re: Ok, LIFers...be honest...

I usually end up missing them before the are deleted. If I do happen to catch it though, I try to pinpoint the exact post where it started to spin wildly out of context and then watch the misinterpretations fly. It's crazy!
