Why not? Hang around for a while and make your own decision. I was given a cat recently, by default. The collective saw us through some traumatic times; rather like marriage counselling, I would say. I now bring his pipe and slippers without whining. We are both happy.
You should be here because it is a very friendly and comfortable community with a lot of intelligent, humorous, and interesting give and take.
My experiences at Fluther have been nothing but positive and it really is my favorite site on the Internet. I like it here very much. I would also readily encourage anyone who is thinking about coming to Fluther to definitely do it. It is certainly worth the effort.
I believe the Norway representation is pretty low, so already you have something unique to offer :)
I love Fluther because I love learning and sharing my knowledge. Remember, you don’t know the number of things that you don’t know! Fluther lets you stumble into new ideas and thoughts, and lets you refine and reflect on your own by sharing them with others.
Why? because you feel like it, no other reason.
Cause when we get together we are twice as clever. :)
Welcome to the collective, elwing. I can only tell you about my own reasons for being a part of Fluther:
1. Flutherites makes me laugh regularly.
2. Fluther is as much community as Q&A site within the confines of its form.
3. Flutherites moves me, make me cry and inspire me with their courage, wisdom and dignity almost every day.
Magnus is from Oslo, but I believe is spending a gap year in Alabama.
Fluther gives you a chance to be a part of something. This isn’t just some chat room where there are tons of idiots screaming ZOMFG r u 4 real?!/?!1! We’re passing genuine knowledge from one human to the next. I’ve had so many times where I’ve been totally reframed because of people on Fluther. Every member here is really smart in some area.
Best Moment:
When everyone saved Judochop’s life.
For real.
And really, if I have to tell you, you probably don’t get it and should just move on.
Because eventually, you can’t help it. Fluther has sucked you in. and you like it
Because if you leave, you will be tormented by the knowledge that its all happening without you.
if you’ve been here for more than 5 minutes and don’t feel the irresistible magnetic pull, maybe fluther’s not for you. not suggesting you leave of course, just suggesting that if you’re not sucked in already…
(;
because you could be on myspace, taking pictures of your butt in a mirror. but then, 20 years down the road, when you go to be a senator, or day care worker or something, they’ll find those pictures, as well as the ones of you and the Bolivian gardener, and you’ll be sorry you didn’t hang with the smart kids.
that’s why.
also, i’m dead sexy.
Waht ?! YOu and a lolivian gardener ? and we dont even have a garden! :p
and I already feel much more included. And so I’ll never leave! (?) And suddenly I feel pretty happy I never had a MySpace-account. Why is that? :P
Stay! Be our friend! We’ll lurve you! :)
@asmonet I think she will :)
If not, I am not making her dinner tomorrow :p
It’s kind of like living in a small town, where everyone keeps an eye out for you.
And answers whateer questions you have… :)
Hi!
You should be here because people are friendly, thoughtful and like a good conversation. It’s an oasis from the rest of the internets.
I always like to think of us as a bar that doesn’t exist in the real world. Like Cheers. Only, nonsuckage.
One has to be some place if one is to be one. To be one one should be here. Otherwise you would be someplace else. And that, my firend is no place at all. In fact, I can prove that you are better off here than there.
@asmonet I like that thought :) Like it a lot
@asmonet…and i’m Sam Malone. only without the balding problems.
lurve for non suckage. that, of course, explains why I don’t date guys anymore
Do you want to be Norm? Isn’t that the guy that hates his wife?
(If I’m wrong on this I’m okay with that)
Ohh.. crap.. did not remember that… What about Cliff then ?
Dunno. I rest my case on that topic.
I don’t know who I’d be, the women on there were pathetic. Frasier and Lilith were my favorites. :)
@asmonet you could be special guest star Raquel Welch!
Bitch is crazy in real life though. :)
@asmonet true true. but that makes it a bit more fun. personally, i liked her guest starring on Seinfeld better, where she didn’t swing her arms.
i think she was playing herself
ok, well, uhm, ...keep in mind that Christie Alley was considered really hot in 1989.
Okay, then I’ll be her, with Lilith funnies and not a touch of Diane.
@gailcalled
Actually, I moved to Georgia over newyears! Sorry I didn’t tell you fluther!
@Magnus: Are you in school? Do you like GA better than AL? They both have good songs written about them.
Yeah, but Sweet Home Alabama beats anything Georgia could throw at it.
~Yeah, all that Neil Young bashing kicks ass.~
Brother Ray doing “Georgia on My Mind” > Lynyrd Skynyrd
And don’t forget the equally lovely I’m a Ramblin’ Wreck from Georgia Tech and a Hell of an Engineer.
And Sweet Georgia Brown, played by Django Reinhardt.
And some more
Sweet Georgia Brown-The Harlem Globetrotters wouldn’t be the same without it.
The Devil Went Down to Georgia-Charley Daniels’ third charted hit,.. number three in the fall of 1979.
The Night The Lights went out in Georgia-Vicki Lawrence’s only charted hit, .. Number 1 for two weeks in March, 1973.
Midnight Train to Georgia-A.. the only number one hit for Gladys Knight and the Pipps. It hit the top of the charts in September, 1973, and stayed there for 2 weeks. Originally titled “Midnight Plane to Houston”.
Rainy night in Georgia-The last of Brook Benton’s hits, it reached Number 4 during the spring of 1970.
