"I honestly don't see what people expect to gain by posting their personal issues in this thread, really"
+1
And I wouldn't tell anyone in a public forum about my gf.
The subject (well, technically "gerund" according to wikipedia, but "subject" for sake of simplicity) of that sentence is "what people expect to gain by posting their personal issues in this thread." Replying with "Because they can?" to that makes absolutely no sense.
Let this be a lesson to people reading through this thread to avoid using sentence fragments!
You don't have a gf
Not everyone are as smart as you i guess.
Nor do you!
Nor do you?
Of course not everyone is as smart as me. I'm pretty far down there, but I'm not the stupidest person in existence.
So what harm is done by asking some advice in this thread?
The question I was asking was: "what do people expect to gain by posting in this thread?" What harm, if any, occurs has nothing to do with what people expect to gain from posting here. (I really would like to know what people who post in this thread wanting advice expect to gain from doing so, but everyone seems to want to start side arguments)
Get the stick out of your arse and quit being an elitist prick. Taking the piss out of our casual English is a retarded endeavour because we will all keep doing it. This thread is a staple of the LFS forum, and one of the few conversation threads that keeps on topic.
I'm not "taking the piss" out of anyone's casual English. I wanted to clarify what I was saying since it seemed like it was mis-understood. Do you honestly think answering "Because they can" to the statement "I don't see what people expect to gain from posting in this thread" makes sense?
Also, why do you take 3/4 of my posts out of context without quoting the posts between them? What are you trying to prove by doing that? Also, putting a smiley at the end of your post after calling me an "elitist prick" doesn't make it any better. If you're just going to insult me then you may as well not reply to me because you're not going to provoke me into acting irrationally, anyway.
Anyway what? That's a bit of a fragment too!
To most people, "Because they can" is a pretty full thought to the statement "I don't see what people expect to gain from posting in this thread". They aren't gaining anything, but doing so "because they can"... It's definitely a fragment, but any logical person could infer the correct context of the fragment.
for once, +1 to dustin.
For once, +1 to w4h.
I would never even think of posting any personal problems I have on an internet forum.
If they aren't gaining anything then why are they posting here?
Everyone needs to vent. I tend to call people ****ing retarded as my venting method.. but sometimes just talking to people about a situation makes a person feel better. The internet is prime for this because it keeps the anonymity (for the most part) rather than trying to convince your friend that "a friend of a friend" isn't you talking about how you knocked up some stripper inside a cake.
Even if it looks like we dont get anything " good '' when we tell our situation with a person we love... well... theres no point for you to come here.
those who post about what is goin on with them probably NEED to do that instead of doing, lets say, suicide. any advice is good and will be usefull at least once in a life time. (even if its a troll who's trolling who gives the advice)

Why would you want to convince a friend that it isn't you you are talking about?
Because it's a sh*t friend probably... kids these days...
Get rid of the friend then.
because the internet gives an unbiased advice.
