Why God, why?


Question Posted Wednesday April 19 2006, 3:02 pm

Why is everyone on this site a whiny 13 year old Emo girl wondering if the boy in their Geometry class likes them? And why are they so willing to follow the advice of complete strangers?
I rate 5's when I damn well feel like it. &hearts

At the age of 13 girls are very insecure and need help with "big issues" that seem like they vould make or break their life, and reputation. Therefore they ask the question because it can be anonymous on advicenators, and they may not feel comfortable talking to their friends about it. It is really their own choice whether they follow the advice or not. They don't have to, the advice is just an option, or suggestion.

Probably because whiny 13 year old emo kids need advice more than anyone else....

12-13 is about when people hit the puberty clusterfsck, which tends to be the point at which people are most uncertain of themselves. And so... advicenators. As for following the advice of strangers, hopefully very few people take advice given here as the word of god; this site should serve as a sounding board, and replies should be taken as suggestions.

I am distinctly not 13, female, or even emo, but I hang around because every so often a question pops up which I can answer - and in many cases, people give bad answers to such questions, which necessitates corrections. But then, I don't think I've ever asked a question.

If you stay around, if might help to think of browing the questions as an exercise in scanning/speedreading.

They follow advice from complete strangers because this site is meant for just that. To give/follow advice. You would think people who like to give advice would visit this site.

Also, everyone on this site is asking that same, be it, very redundant question because that is quite the popular topic when you're a '13 year old whiny emo girl'

If you have a problem with these questions simply to as I did...Leave.

Could be because we haven't got very much of an adult following yet. Believe it or not it is getting better.

I guess 13 year old girls just need someone to talk to. It would be real nice if they would search some of the past questions for the answers they want before asking though.

Sometimes it is better to ask a stranger for advice. If those strangers would tell it like it is (politely of course), instead of telling what they want to hear it would be a lot more helpful.

As for rating 5's when you damn well feel like it, I couldn't agree more. A 5 rating is really meaningless the way it is being used at the moment. That is something we really need to find a solution for.

Does & daggers work? :)
