Take out the human interaction, and any thread would be drier than a soda cracker fart.

Some of use get a giggle out of what is said when it meanders from the main stream and that is what makes it what it is on here. Without it it would die slowly as the fun would disappear along with people pretty fast. If it goes too far the mods set us back on course as is there job.

perhaps one who does not wish topics to contain any banter, n just be totally serious constitutes a Boring Get?
