Why Do Some Interesting Threads, Go All Silly?

It’s such a shame but just lately, nice interesting threads are started and then they go all stupid!

Honestly, l love to laugh but some of these threads go all skew wiff and the posts aren’t funny at all!!

Maybe, my sense of humour is different to what others think is hilarious?

What are your views? Or, am l just bored with the same old, same old and would prefer some originality?

Well personally I like the ones that go daft so much nicer than arguments and bickering.

I just play hopscotch around the place now and try and adjust the silly grin or sombre face to match accordingly.

Re: Why Do Some Interesting Threads, Go All Silly?

I think all threads run their course eventually
Interesting or not there comes a point when either people have said all that can be said... or will bicker to infinity... or just accept differences and let it be.
By that time the threads either stop completely or evolve ...like a normal, real conversation would amongst friends or acquaintances.
That's when we rely on a certain camaraderie and knowledge of eachother on here to have some fun
Personally I like that..but that's just me and my opinion.
We are all different

Examples please!

Then we can peruse and point fingers and plan appropriate punishments...
