Nice to have "Today's Posts" not littered with viral email jokes...

**glwilson** · 02-26-2012, 11:03 PM

Just saying... recently it has been nice to go to the "Today's Posts" and not see 50% of them being viral-emails forwarded onto this site.

Quite frankly, it was getting out of hand to see most of the new posts were nothing more than viral email crap posted on this forum.

I say keep that kind of crap on your email list and off of this site.

There... I said it. I assume there are others that would agree.

I didn't mind the good ones or some of the ones that are relevant to the topic they are posted on some threads, but a lot are a pile of crap.

Wompus hasn't been on lately. Just saying....

I enjoy good jokes that are funny as they brighten my day. But, I can live without them.

cactusjack · 02-27-2012, 07:08 AM

I agree!

**trip** · 02-27-2012, 07:36 AM

I had a short conversation with Wompus about that. Evidentally, he took my advice.

I agree, seems the off topic threads were getting out of hand with so much doom and gloom rants that I avoided reading certain posters.

Yes, it would appear he has. But now there's no bickering and name calling.

Kind'a Boring.

OK Gerry maybe I can entertain you, what would you like me to call you?

blowndodge · 02-27-2012, 10:57 AM

Things Gerry's never heard his wife say:

"I must be the luckiest woman in the world"
"Your soooo big" (belly excluded)
"You need to rest, you work too hard"
"Your gas smells like cologne"
"No, you don't need to brush your teeth"
"Have you been exercising?"
"How do you stay so young looking?"
