Why do you post?

steve(thelil) · June-3rd-2003, 09:34 PM

I mean, what combination of addiction, agression, need for interhuman interaction, intellectual (or other) masturbation, intellectual exercise, boredom, etc.

I post because I have an itch*

Thank you.

* This is not the kind of response I'm looking for. I will write a reasoned response soon.

If I have the itch**

** this itch thing (still) sucks

I am post horny.

moneyp · June-3rd-2003, 09:39 PM

I'm post-horny for the children.

I swore not to attain Enlightenment until all living creatures are released from the wheel of desire.

Nah, actually your first sentence is dead right, Steve.

Albert Diaz · June-3rd-2003, 10:16 PM

I post cause my fingers never stop talkin'.

steve(thelil) · June-3rd-2003, 10:19 PM

As a possibility, I somehow neglected to mention "need for attention"

Although it's kind of implied in all of my posts.

Thank you.

I post because I want to KNOW.

I THIRST for knowledge and seek it anywhere I can find it.

It is WHY I teach...the thirst for knowledge. I want to impart that quest to each and every student I am privledged to come in contact with...this year and EVERY year.

I gotta have it. I gotta teach it. I can't help myself.

I am DRIVEN.

I am addicted to the understanding of the Human Soul.

No bullshit.

steve(thelil) · June-3rd-2003, 10:38 PM

I post because I owe it to all of you.

You're welcome.

GoodSpeak · June-3rd-2003, 10:46 PM

Um.

Thanks?

GoodSpeak · June-3rd-2003, 10:48 PM

BTW...

Nice to see you've adopted my use of spaces, Steve(thelil).

HA!

VINDICATED at last ;-)

steve(thelil) · June-3rd-2003, 11:04 PM

I happen to think that this is a heavy and meaningful thread, with the exception of some posts,

GoodSpeak · June-3rd-2003, 11:41 PM

Well, hell...don't bag on Bo'tricky like that, (thelil).

Geez.

GoodSpeak · June-3rd-2003, 11:42 PM

Honestly, sometimes...

Dr Dave · June-4th-2003, 12:00 AM

I post to fill in the spaces between Goodspeak's posts.

Ron Thorne · June-4th-2003, 02:34 AM

With no excuse or goofy reasoning, I post mostly because I can!

My experience has also taught me that if "you have an itch", scratch it.

Squaredancecalling Steve · June-4th-2003, 02:55 AM

I need the money.

bluenoter · June-4th-2003, 02:59 AM

I post because I learned to ride English, not Western.

No?

I'm not, therefore I post.

hermann · June-4th-2003, 04:08 AM

As long as I post, I am.

Sand · June-4th-2003, 05:49 AM

I am the postman.

corollary:

The postman always rings twice.

patricia · June-4th-2003, 08:57 AM

I post because here I can finish a thought and nobody interrupts me. The other posters have to wait until you've finished posting, before they can contribute their ideas. Very civilized.

Also, where else are there dozens of of people, from all over the world, exchanging ideas, at the same time, in the same place?

steve(thelil) · June-4th-2003, 10:26 AM

I have to confess that "Patricia" is really another alias I use when I want to seem like a fine person

That's ridiculous. Who made up that rule?

LOL!!!! BUSTED! Your halo is crooked.

Mone',
No "rules" as far as I know. This isn't mud-wrestling.

clinthopson · June-4th-2003, 12:01 PM

It's kinda like a dog peeing on every bush.

It gives me a chance to lift my leg several times a day.

Also, I harbor a fantasy about patricia, Jazzy Mary, a Sousaphone, a giraffe and the Mormon Tabernacle Choir.

I too harbour fantasies, but dare not speak of them, even here.
Mine involve the tango, and an unconventional musical art-form, performed on revolutionary instruments, not to mention an encounter with a young Billy Barty. We have no control over our fantasies.
