How many Stupid and Dumb Discussions are there on My Lot?

Of course I have, and some days I just do not see too many things to answer. There are also occasional trolls. If a discussion is a violation of guidelines, go a head and report it, even if it is very old. I bet that one about Europeans descending from Aliens was a hoot, unless they meant it seriously.

Yes indeed! What a difference in the type of discussions I see now compared to what was posted 4 or 5 years ago. Now I only respond to some of my friends discussions. When I think of how I would spend a few hours a day posting on myLot now it is seldom more than half an hour. The past two years I have been quite active in the Politics interest ever since the "Obama the Destroyer" appeared in American Politics.

Stupid discussions are everywhere here. Hehe. But I can understand that for some if not most here just post or make discussions with one purpose. And I think you know already what that purpose is. Another thing is that we have different cultures and beliefs. One thing might sound dumb to us but for them it isn't. That's why I just try to understand stupid/dumb discussions or ignore them at most. :) shadow41

Hahaha, there is definitely some silly stuff being posted, but that's pretty much in all forums online.

You are right my friend I also seen some discussion in which people tell Americans is such like this and others. I dont like to discriminate between any country or between any culture we should respect to every culture not on us but also others. Because every tradition is important for everyone...I not like this type of discussion I start only funny topic or some news topic..

I kind of think anything anyone wants to post is ok. Some people may like the subjects you just named. I didn't see those posts but I think I would have responded if I had. There are some who believe people descended from visitors from other planets. Have you ever read von Daniken's book...Chariot of the Gods? I skimmed it and it's quite intriging..I don/t necessarily believe it but I found it something to think about. As for cats abandoned that is an awful problem and my heart breaks for the ones being thrown out of cars.

There are some that just type anything that they can come up with. Although I don't bother to respond to any of them. I am guessing that they are just trying to get as many discussions started as they can, to make that penny.

I see some dumb stuff here every single day LOL. I have seen alot of them since joining here about 5 years or so ago.

oh yea.some days i sign off in disgust at not finding anything to comment on. whole lot of nothing.literily. as far as the alien thing goes-i've seen that one.my blood group is either called alien or neanderthal,conspiritists can't figure out which.well,heck.might as well just say some of a slept with b,and kill two birds with one stone. neanderliens!

jennybianca, I share the same views and experience here. Rather than, finding the blame I am concern if these discussions are created out of desperation, posting for the sake of posting. The fact that it lacks quality just tells me that way.

If the discussion does not interest me i, i dont reply simple. But i guess people see it as a way of earning money, even if it is a weird topic. No worse than being told every little detail of someone's day on face book.

hi jennybianca I did not find that one, and they really believe that stuff I mean about aliens and Europeans that really floors me. I don't think I have e very seen a cat thrown on the freeway so cant be an every day thing.oh help. sometimes I have worried that my discussion was not' really mind blowing but at least I do not belien in aliens yet.the ones that get me most are how c an I make money on mylot? what is that star for? How much do you make on mylot a mponth? and they are so repetitious that I wonder mylotadnmins does not delete a few.

I have found some of the discussions are kind of dumb and yet there are a lot of good ones also. I have learned a lot on here. Some of them are so dumb I don't even read the whole thing. People believe in a lot of things that I feel are stupid, but the reverse is probably true also.

Stupid is a relative word -- just like trash,for as we know one man's trash is another man's treasure. Have I seen a lot on here posted by my friends I have no interest in responding to? Yes. I've seen many local events I don't have any knowledge of to use in a response. I've also seen a few discussions I can't believe actually got posted because of their adult content, but I guess I changed my settings to post a response that was deemed to have adult content, though I couldn't figure out what about my response was "adult." I have determined not to get involved in discussions that have little substance and would rather spend my limited time and energy on discussions that might really matter to a lot of people as they make decisions. I'm sure I've seen discussions I did consider stupid, but I can't think of specific examples right now.

there are really lots of them that we see each day posted mostly by newcomers. when i see one, i read and do not leave any trace that i saw them.

Hello Jenny, It depends on the interest as the discussion which i may feel is stupid may be interesting for someone else.But no doubt some of the discussion are really stupid only thing which i do is to skip them and go ahead to find the interesting ones. Don't worry friend there are lots of interested ones also which you may not be able to read in whole day hehehe.

i guess it's their tries to get money lol
