It's like this, I am allergic to shellfish, well more like shellfish people. Whenever I'm around them I get a headache and feel queasy.

Instead of the world coming closer together they are being driven farther apart. Some of this is being done intentionally by politicians and advertisers, other parts have more to do with pop culture. Society is becoming more bi-polar, or tri-polar, or even beyond. It's not just the liberals verses the conservative. Look at the stupid things they got going this month. Pride month? Like gay people need a special month? When gay people fly a rainbow flag outside what are they truly trying to accomplish? "Hey, look at me I'm gay"? Or "screw you, I'm here and I'm queer"? They are not trying to "fit in",and have "equal rights", they are saying they are going to rub their lifestyle in your face wether you like it or not.
Then we got the dumbest holiday ever invented aimed at people that don't work and want everything handed to them. Who ever came up with this "Juneteenth"?. That's not even a word and is even more make believe then Columbus day. Congress just wanted another paid day off. If it wasn't for slavery 90% of the black people wouldn't even exist in the United States. Why are they so fixed on the past? Why can't they assimilate? Why do 100 people get shot every year at "Juneteenth" celebrations. It's not bringing people closer together, it's making people say "hey look at me, I'm different from you"

I heard somewhere that after the so called "pandemic" people are associating less with classes other then their own. Maybe because people who work hard for their money don't appreciate freeloaders? Or is it more to do with driving people apart and pinning them against each other?

Someone mentioned all the people on Mingle, well I get plenty of hits everyday on my account, problem is they are all fakes, fake people don't post in the forums, well not often anyways. They still have profiles of people from 10 years ago, the number of people that are on this site long enough to realize there are forums is very limited. That along with the fact that every topic has already been covered a number of times makes it tough to come up with new content. I'm not big on social media but I've even noticed people don't comment on Fakebook like they used to either, and if people don't click on "like" for every post then people don't do it in return, or they drop the people. Maybe the forums should come up with a "like" button, and a "dislike" button also?

Hi Blondey! It's nice to see you, my friend!

Totally agree with you about the forums. They're becoming a ghost town.

I'm always hesitant to start a new thread because I'm afraid I'll get hit with the "There's already a thread on this topic" and then a link to a thread from 10 years ago. Then when you post in it, people complain that you're digging up old threads. You just can't win!

Maybe we should all post a new thread. I'll do one, but it probably won't be very intellectual.

I agree with your perspective.

With the way things have been looking
in the forums lately, I can't believe
I let you shave my balls for this.

M2 forums are not really very good forums.
The forum BBcode software is extremely restrictive.
All bbcode must be written verses the ease of a WYSIWYG editor with buttons. I know a lot of BBcode but most common BBcodes are prevented here.

Its called a "Community" but there is no community structure or support. Basically, just a few 'forum friends'.


This is the only "dating" forum I use. I am member at many "other subject" forums and even have a few of my own.
I've considered many times, leaving and not coming back but I find this forum entertaining. The minds here help me understand the minds at my other forums a lil better. So, I still learn something about the human condition from the M2 forums.

Try imagining the recent posts as a sitcom or a comedy soap opera, its rather amusing. Someone should make a TV show based on dating site forums.

Hi

Sooo ... I am living in Germany for 7 months now, bit looking after my mom, especially after my Dad passed away. Working full time as well now. As it stands, less time for social media as such. But I still hang around a wee bit on M2 and enjoy the banter

There you go Blondey, and I'll help by proposing the title: 111BlondeSpirt1111 ! It should get things rolling just by the " made you look" factor alone.

the way I see it, too many third world horny little boys are trying their best to get into a game , not even bothered about reading the topic , and interact with others who are here for the pass time aspect ... I for one refuse to be drawn into their games, in case I encourage them to post drivel .... this also hampers my humour/ sarcasm and sometimes rude comments ...I was never one for the intellectual posts ... I find laughter is a way to a girl's heart ... IMO !!

a deep conversation with Cat would have to involve , analysis of a World Cup Series baseball game .. She is an expert on that game ...IMHO ....lol ....

See what you started Blondey, you need to give Devo a hug now! You too Cat.

There is always the 'Science & Philosophy' Forum for the heavy stuff. This is the 'Coffee Houses, 'Bars & Chit Chat' Forum, I am surprised the mods have not moved this thread there it's bit heavy, unless they have stopped moving topics to other Forums. This area is for the simple stuff, like should you be honest with your partner when asked to comment on say, new hair do, dress, jeans, or be economical with the truth, easy stuff like that. :-).

Spamming What does that mean are you saying that I'm fake?

Show up naked with a bouquet of bacon?
