Why did I join this site?

To ask this stupid question!

Wait, the teacher told me no question was stupid. :)

Oh, well sit down and shut up!

In a nice way….

To get to the other side. Of answers. To your questions.

I have to say, I asked this question to see if such a dumb question would draw rude responses like those found on digg.com

However, from these few responses and others I have read since finding this site less than an hour ago, I can see people are actually polite and helpful on here.

Cheers.

Yeah, when compared to Digg, everybody’s polite :P

Personally, I think you just couldn’t resist the looks of Mr. J in the top right-hand corner.

Damn you. I don’t know what “Mr J” is. I was viewing this site on my iphone. So, I stopped my iTunes rented movie “Life Boat” – 1944, Alfred Hitchock….anyway, I opened the site on my MacBookPro and I see some ads but nothing indicating a Mr J. I could start another question on Fluther “Who is Mr J” but I am hoping you will answer back. :)

The jellyfish. The cute jellyfish who lured all of us into his layer called “Fluther”.

You got sucked in by the awesomeness.

kevbo: are you saying that we suck?

Jellyfish don’t have all those tentacles for nothing.

Okay, this is funny. I just looked up jellyfish anatomy and found that they take in food and expel waste from the same orifice. Talk about a metaphor.

so that you could pretend to be an intellectual and sound all sophisticated among your friends

@vincett: Pssst! You switch left and right again!

Obviously not to help us answer questions!

@tgerediawa: actually I have been answering questions. :)

@andrew – dammit >.<
I never do that in real life. Really, I don’t. It’s the truth!

@setec – sorry, if I had said top left-hand corner you might’ve gotten it ;-)

Really, I never do that!

Again, I really don’t.

Did I make my point?

“Methinks thou dost protest too much” (or is it “thou dost protest too much, methinks”; I’ll have to look it up after I post this).

mirza: I did it so that I could pretend to be an intellectual and sound all sophisticated amongst people I’ve never met :)

Seriously though, I joined this site because it seemed like a good fit. It seems like the people here are intelligent, curious, diverse and helpful and those are the kind of people I like to hang out with.

To continue my misogynist bent for the day, it’s:

“Methinks the woman doth protest to much.”
