Where are all of the good discussions?

Tweet

Hey everyone! I'm a new user. I joined this site hoping that it would be intelligent people talking about intelligent or at least interesting things, and maybe make a tiny bit of money doing it (which I admit originally attracted me to this site - having discussions about interesting things and getting paid for it). I don't want to answer questions like "What color r ur shoes?" or "Is ur hair long or short?". No one seems to answer any of the discussions I start, but questions like these are getting hundreds of answers! Am I missing something? Anyone else having a hard time finding decent discussions to discuss instead of silly questions with yes or no answers?
