LIVE! From the mylot posting station out in the farthest reaches of the world, between the Mohave Desert and the Atlantic Coast, via the lost city of Atlantis somewhere in the Gobi Desert and beneath the Grand Canyon redirected from a satellite on the other side of the galaxy its... PRO'S FREE FOR ALL WEEKEND!!! Yep, with power and talent on loan from a Rusty Battleaxe! Wow, that's saying something. Getting talent, power and drive from something older than a lot of countries! Okay, heres how this one will work. I'll post some random stuff and you can comment on that. You can comment on the joking parts of this thread. You can comment on the weekend. Or you can post whats going on in your life (you can even link mylot discussions). If I like your response to this thread I'll comment, but if you bore me, my friends or my fans, I'll hijack your portion of responses faster than you can say "STOLEN!" Alright, my stuff. I tried making up the Grandparent's day weekend only to be cut off at the pass by my own aunt. Kidnapped granny right out from under me. So I'll try to visit tomorrow, provided my health stays up. Yes still dealing with the cough, it seems more stress/physical based than viral so I'm gonna relax more especially this weekend. Other things, on mylot, do you think its bad just to have a fun thread, or a joke thread? I was in one a few days back and it was deleted (nothing nasty, just a simpsons quote thread). Do the powers that be at mylot really hate jokes or even quotes that much? Are we supposedly here to argue and eviscerate each other, possibly for their entertainment? (semi-kidding, but still) You don't have to answer if you do not want to. Final point, am I too macabre or too ogre? I've been noting my posting style and it does seem like I'm a bit too dark and negative a good number of times. Again, you don't have to answer if you don't want, this is a thread for the peopleation. I want you all to have fun :)

I like the fun threads, games and such. I think they add a bit of spice to the everyday answer questions and move on, we do here. I understand the joke rule; joke threads are just a ton of copy n paste posts of things found on the net. No work really involved there, kind of like recipes as well. However the games, I don't get that really. Games are mostly fun and require the person to use their own mind to participate. I think they should allow them and if they don’t want to pay us for them, then don’t but keep the discussions going. I have seen some pretty cool conversations on these types of posts. Kind of like in real life, you know?

Thanks Sunshine! This is a partial joke thread, but as you can see several topics and real issues are still in there and anyone is free to comment as they please. I like the serious conversations, but many times enough is enough! Response remains open ;p

Oh give me a break. I enjoy your sense of humor and your vitality. I enjoy a good joke, but sometimes I get bombarded by them and really lose my sense of humor when I have to go through 30 email forwards that are joke related. If the sender would offer a word or two personally before they send it to me, I will be more apt to read it. You keep on doing what you are doing. : )

Okay, so when you don't comment on my replies then I bore you? Too much uncharted thought? So is an old Rusty BattleAxe your super hero weapon of choice? I thought it was your senses! As for your cold, I fall back on my Massage Therapy training, did you know that regular 'laying on of the hands' is a great boost for the ol' immune system. Forget the flu shot with all its preservatives - get regular massages during cold and flu season! Yep, massage is good for whatever ails you. Better then talk therapy sometimes. Definitely good for stress and worry and all that. Although it may have been frustrating to you that your granny was taken away when you had plans I personally think its wonderful that the whole family is so involved. Too many forget the importance of their elders and forget to honour and show love by spending time with them. I don't think its bad to have joke threads and I've seen them here. I think your stalker probably did something - because some days, I haven't posted any topics and hardly did anything but post back and forth with Malyck and I got a lot of money on those few days. My thought is, mylot admin was amused. I don't think you're too macabre, in fact you actually seem to see a brighter future then some people do. I am pretty morbid in some of my post ideas, and I notice not a lot answer those. However, I must say I have a few loyal commenters who no matter how bright and sunny my question is, usually asking for something positive, they only give me negatives - experiences from their lives and such. I'm sorry that some - certainly - not - you - can't come up with anything positive about past, present and future. That's ghastly to me personally. I'm more a destruction monger, I love novels and movies about 'the end'. Basically because I'm fascinated thinking of how we would all react when major changes occur in our world - will we pull together - or... (did you hear about the Bering Strait?)... Okay that's it for now...what can I add so its not boring...here's to hoping you relieve stress by engaging in communication that is both slowed and blurred and quick and sweet, for vows etched deep on soft skin by silken lips......................................................all that and some dark chocolate too.

Nah, I just didn't get to my threads. You are not boring! I actually think your posts are okay Arte! Maybe that's really how macabre I am if thats the case. But all and all your posts seem normal, I could see myself doing them. Oh and I can't do any chocolate yet...

Hi progamer, Hope you have a relaxing weekend. My posts are always so serious that I just had to comment on this. We all need a bit more humour in our life. I note that you didn't forget Grandparents day, so you are probably not an ogre. Blessings friend.

Dark and negative? Surely you jest! Your attitude is brighter than a black hole! Okay, fine, I'll stop calling you Shirley. Haha, this thread will probably get deleted for some reason or another, but have fun until it does. They'll never be able to take away the memories. C; By the way, joke threads are against myLot guidelines. They're fun to read, but still against the rules. I can't say I'm surprised if they get deleted, though it's a bit sad. If you like fun threads, why not join some other forum where forum games are allowed?

Well this is a hybrid thread, plus theres still enough topics in the original post to talk about. Or you can post stuff about your weekend. Plus I still see joke threads all over the place here and they aren't removed at all. And mylot should realize that the galaxy of serious threads can wear on a psyche, so there should be some relief from it. Anyhoo, response remains open. Almost hijacked though!

Well, like someone else here said, joke threads are mostly copy-paste. Or just copy-type, if you can't paste. 'Sides, you can always open another browser window in a joke site and read while posting. That's what I'm doing right now. =P How'd you hijack a thread anyway? Gah, every time someone says "hijack", I think of Tiberian Sun. Stupid mutant hijacker was about as useful as a knife in the foot.
