Let's talk about BigV's attitude
 

toward pointless fun threads. He's apparently very upset by them.

I'm sure he doesn't like me much then.

I don't like littering either, Jimbo. Although I think the pointless threads thing is a lot more like taking a piss in the punchbowl.

While everyone at the party is watching.

At least it's only in the punch, not all over the bar, dancefloor, parking lot, etc.

Urine big trouble now mister!

well..urine a moderator......merge them!

weed

BigV I wish you'd stop saying that.....I ain't got any in:(

need some weed seeds?

The thing is...and I know this might be controversial...but I quite like the silly threads. I think this world could do with more silliness and a little less absurdity.

I do click on these threads to see if anyone's posted funny, or sharp responses. I like that there is a (in fact more than one) meta joke running through the Cellar across a length of time. I find that really funny. I like 'running jokes'. Now okay, some of them fall flat, some don't quite pull it off, but some are very funny.

If you see a thread with a bunch of alliteration and the name of a dwellar you pretty much know what kind of thread it is. I tend to ignore them when I first check in in the morning (that's how I start my day btw when I am not at uni:P ...coffee and Cellar for about an hour) I go for stuff I was following that has moved on overnight, but I do eventualy get around to it: usually when there's been a pattern of them emerging on the new posts list.

Kind of spoils the joke a little when everytime you click on one you just see the same word 'Weed'. It was funny the first couple of times I followed a link, but now I just don't want to click on the silly threads because I already know what's there. Thereby rendering them dull.

Oh well.

It's working.

I thought they were funny at first, but I think we might be reaching critical mass.

More like we're all at a party, and LJ tells wolf that there's something on her back - even though there isn't. Then Flint agrees that there's something on wolf's back, and I agree, and on and on.... Then BigV says "weed".

Wasn't that fun?

If I was a moderator, I would merge all of your butt cheeks together

depends where he weed.
