why do inane childish posts get more response

[Doc_Spock]

than something a trifle more considered.

Just wondered.

Dude, chill, yeah.

[Doc_Spock]

Mine are stupid but at least i put some effort in an attempt to amuse.

[joggerjayne]

Good point.

And well made ... (as Pencil Dick's "blokey" mates used to say).

[bednobs]

because people dont want reason considered debate

[lajohn]

Cause they are inane and childish?
Watch this one, see how many it gets.

I agree Doc. it should really not be this way inclined.
And I also think if the input was lively and coherent it would be quite enjoyable.
But I think with the idiots involved it brings out the worst in us.
And I put my hand up. I can't help it, I have to respond cynically.

Hey I got 21 on my Beetroot thread Doc -thing is I was serious (ish) and it degenerated -but in a funny way -I aided and abeted the degeneration - but you know me- lol

Some peeps dont make any effort into what thread they post -like 'Thats me off to the bank' type thing and thats a thread FFS ! .

I rarely post a thread (unless I am p!shed and having a major crisis) -but I do suffer for months afterwards -give them an inch blah de blah !!!

Anyway keep on posting cos I luuurrvvvee your threads -and i am waiting for the day i get a mention -then I know ive truly arrived xxx

Ed.Case, exactly my thoughts.

[logic]

Hmm, this threads not doing very well either, Doc,

i think most people like childish threads, cos they've got a childish mentality.

Goo goo gaa gaa

people dont like to tax their brains when they are relaxing, people like frivolity.

[Ed.Case]

Frivolity is good.
Yes and when you have a topical and interesting thread the fools generally keep away and if they do get involved they are generally ignored.
Its quite sad really (me) but I only found this site when I was stuck for a clue in the telegraph crossword and stumbled into this. I first thought it was some sort of spoof but then again here we are !
