Question Posted Saturday April 23 2005, 12:27 am

It's nice to see that somebody else agrees that most of what is posted here is bullshit and should come naturally. In fact, I have quite a few more columns on here that you didn't post about, to tell you the truth, there are some that I actually do help people.

This one, the one that I have spent the most time on recently, was made because after spending 1 month here, I couldn't stand how the people were asking such ignorant questions, look at the "give advice" page. What do you see? At least 80% are about relationships, this is crazy, why can't these people handle their own lives?

Indeed I don't really care for this site, it's not one that matters too much to me. I come here repeatedly because I am either in the process of a large download, or am waiting for "something" to happen. I come here usually to answer a question, but I have yet to see one that doesn't concern either the lack of common sense, or pre-teen "love".

Once I see this, I don't show the self control that you do. I WILL tell somebody that their question is bad, that their relationship doesn't matter, if you're in 6th grade and like that boy across the room and he doesn't talk to you and it makes you cry and cut yourself, I WILL tell you that your fucking retarded and need to grow up. See, I don't act like some Dr.Phil wannabe, if you have a problem, you need real answers, not people to feed you sugar coated bullshit answers. That's where my column comes in.

What is the column(s) where you say you have actually tried to help people?

The fact that I don't tell everyone how stupid they are doesn't really have a whole lot to do with self control. What is the point? If someone asks a question that really pisses me off, then I'll tell them that they're being stupid/annoying/immature/spoiled/etc. But what is the point of going through and telling everyone the same thing? You complain about how all of the questions are the same, but then, you and other's who have columns like yours, go through and answer every single question with almost the same response. What is the difference?

I approve a lot of questions, and answer questions that have to do with pet care. Like I have already said... If I see a question that I can lend my opinion and experiences to, and actually help someone out, then I will answer it. It's lovely when I see questions written by adults, or mature teens, who have real problems.

But then, when that does happen, there is always some asshole who says "what are you doing on a website with a bunch of stupid teenagers?" I see that from a lot of people with columns like your own. People like that, who complain about the redundancy of the teens with stupid problems, and then tell all of the people with real problems to just go away, people like that piss me off more than anything. I would rather see some idiot answer with "OMG, i dunno, you should ask someone else".



Like I've said before... there are a few other columnists who feel the same way that I do. We DO NOT sugar coat answers. We also do not act like a complete ass just to get a few laughs. Your column does not give real answers, it gives insults.
You must realize by now that most of the people on this site are incapable of picking up on sarcasm. They aren't going to understand it if you give an insulting answer full of sarcasm.
