Questions about threads filled with pix

iceRedfire · ‎11-24-2013

The boards have a lot of threads that are just from doing a google search of a topic (like specific animals , funny cat memes , random funny pix, and so forth) and then copy and paste, copy and paste. What's the interest in doing this? To see pix all we have to do is search and look for ourselves.

This is just my wonderings and the point is not that posters should do this, I'm not the board police 😋😜🤓 and I get that some people like these pic threads or there wouldn't be so many , I just was wondering why take the time for all that coping and pasting here when the pix are there in google anyway?

I like reading about why people do things so I look forward to reading your replies about this. I think people are wonderful and fascinating!💙

Thanks and have a GREAT weekend!💙

Beause we want to, because we can hang out and discuss funny stuff that we have in common with other posters.

For me, it's a pleasant diversion from all the sad, depressing threads.

I promise to remind myself every day that I am strong, courageous, and resilient.

Because people enjoy doing it.

Some of them are hilarious.

Hi Collette, I post regularly on a thread in Among Friends - the Bird's Nest. I feature a bird of the day. I consider it educational.

There are times when you must speak, not because you are going to change the opposing side, but because if you do not speak, they have changed you.

Exactly. It's nice to have a fun, enjoyable thread to visit that usually doesn't involve arguing or whining.

I love the threads that are filled with pictures...I think it makes for good conversations when we have something to look at then reply....If someone started a thread and said Google ..blah blah..and the next poster then responded ...Google blah blah...how long do you think that thread would keep anyones interest..how long do you think the thread will last...who wants to keep going back to Google to see what each poster is talking about...no one..

Because they make me smile! And who doesn't need a reason to smile these days?

You never know how strong you are until being strong is the only choice you have.

@Bird mama I was thinking this morning we need a body mods thread over there in Among Friends, where those of us that like them can share with each other.
