... clicked on a topic that caught your attention by the title but once you got into the discussion you had no clue what was being discussed? Like the people were talking in a foreign language but it was all typed in English?
I swear, in the last week I have clicked on at least a half dozen different discussions but once it opened, it was like I was spying on a private inside joke between a few dozen people who all "got it" except me.
Is it just me or has this been happening to you too?
I do not get it. These are all discussions that have 20+ responses from people who are all seem to know what is being talked about and yet, I feel so lost.

You are not alone! I always feel this way. I think there is many people who are using a free online translator because they can`t read or write english. Therefore the topic is really chopped up and difficult to understand. I usually pass these up. But the odd one I can muddle through enough to respond. But a few times I was left with a confused mind over what is going on.

I have had that happen to me several times before. I wanted to reply but was lost and did not know what to say to it.
