This is NOT to single anyone out...but what is up with all the list-making lately? Intelligence threads...Handsome or Beautiful threads...Sexy threads...Best Booty threads, etc...? I know a couple of threads were created tongue in cheek...hell! I made it on the Best Farter thread...:laughing: ...but really...what is it about humans that we constantly need to be part of a Popularity Contest? I'm quite serious about this & again...am not singling out anyone...

But why, why, WHY?

i was thinking about this and at first i didn't like the idea of these lists. i too felt that they are a bit of a popularity contest.
i just realized however that there is nothing wrong with recognizing the people who are important to you. and posting a list of such people is a way to do that.
that said, some of this has gotten a bit out of hand.

Believe me...I thought a lot about it before making this thread... Of course we should let our friends know how much we respect & care for them...I do it every day by playing with them in the threads & in PERSONAL email... BUT...lists will always be exclusionary...and High Schoolish...& hurtful...to the ones who want to be on one & are ignored... This is just my opinion...& isn't that what the Forums are for?

BTW, Keith...you have ALWAYS been on my sh!t list...but in an ever soooooo good way! laugh

If one more person asks then it is required by law that a thread is created

i agree. and i understand that some people may need to feel validated by being put on a list. better to not exclude them by not making lists to begin with.

Me and Lex are too cool to make lists. We just make it onto the lists.

Well Lex does anyway.

I just pretend to myself that i make it on them.

I think the thread is kind of mean...especially considering most people who are put on a list, have no idea until it's done. I don't think calling anyone for a thread they do high schoolish and/or hurtful. I don't necessary like it but I sure as heck don't get nasty to those who do. I think that is a little high schoolish.

This need to turn this site into a replay of high school via list contests is something I completely detest. It is why I made that silly fart list thread the other day. I'm not sure if anyone knew I was mocking those other threads.

I did not read any of the other responses to the original post because if I have to read one that says, "I did it for the laugh," I'll scream. It's not funny, and I see ZERO GOOD coming out of it. If you need me to explain the negative aspects of such threads I will be glad to. However, I've done so in the past and was met by a cold reception.
