Just wondering why so many people that get on here are jerks?

I will admit that some of the questions people ask on here have been ridiculous but most are seeking serious advice and some responses I have read to their questions warrant apologies for your insensibility. So for all of you that have been total and complete jack@sses, I apologgize on your behalf

    lol, it's boredom! Then there are those who are just mean in general. I know there have been a few times that I have been a b i t c h, I was bored and in the mood to stir things up. I only gave stupid answers to stupid questions. I am not mean to those who are in desperate need of a true answer. What's really weird is one of my meanest responses got "best answer", then some of the things I said that were not mean at all, like telling a girl I would not let her deliver my baby because she couldn't even spell "baby" or "doctor" (they were no typos she spelled it docter), I was reported for abuse! So whatever thanks for apologizing on my behalf!

    Be ajerk! the world needs some more.

    Why am I a jerk? Because if one doesn't pull hard enough one may not obtain what they're trying to get.

    get it?

    "AJERK"

    Okay, seriously, this is a fun forum to express questions and answers that warrant the same without embarrassment. It's fun finding out how people think without some philophosical theory. You see it first hand.

    I concur with Tosha this is NOT the place for serious answers. Consult a professional for stuff like that:i.e. a doctor (we can't tell you why you have red bumps on your butt) a lawyer (if we all could practice law then there would be no need for lawyers) financial advisor. READ YAHOO'S DISCLAIMER.

    Source(s): This is not serious enough to report, but do you realize YOU DID NOT ASK A QUESTION. Your statement is that a statement. I was just WONDERING........... That is not a question.

    Are you kidding me? I have seen questions that attack every racial group, every religion, males, females then you get the the stupid people who want to incite everyone. You get people that have no idea what a question is. People who just to make political statments, find a friend, lover, long lost sweetheart or a pen pal or GOD forbid the people who want to post a poem. Honey you can't fix stupid!!! and when you have someone asking 10,000 folks what their future is, how to get my love back, should I marry a guy thats been cheating, should I marry the person I supposly love. Good LORD you wonder why this place is so popular... What happened to people thinking for themselves!???? <---btw for all those other idiots that is a question..... You'd think this society was raised to never think for themselves or is this the result of sitting in front of the boob tube to much??? <----psst another question. All the others just need to GROW UP!!! good lord get off your mamma's tit and act like an adult. And anyone who doesn't like my answer can email me about it..

    Whatever, who would really come here for serious advice, this is a joke to me and it all depends on my mood on the answer I plan to give.

    Freedom of speech my dear, we may not like some of the answers. I guess since we can vote for the best answer, its a given they don't care. Sometimes different answers even the jerky answers make us think about things a little differently.

    Well i consider this statment or question as you call it one step away from telling us about jesus and how we are going to burn in hell. Sounds like you have some control issues. Good luck!

    Source(s): Iniziale Padrino your opinion is so much better. Thanks, I will sleep better at night!

    My guess is they were jack@sses to all of the people in their personal lives as well, and this is the only place left to express their insensitivity and rudeness. I feel sorry for them if they think people actually listen to and care about their idiotic opinions.

    I don't agree with you. And that is for the simple fact that they go away if they are ignored. So every community has his bads, but that doesn't allow us to put it in the wrong basket.

    After me, this one is full with people who are lonely, or bored. I'm one of them.

    this is a public forum of ideas and thoughts.

    Where it is uncensored to a degree and no one knows who it is.

    so people feel free to express themselves.

    Have you noticed in life some peoples thoughts are scary, and just plain stupid?

    Skip those and answer those that sincerely want answers.

    the bible says, "In the multitude of counselors is direction."

    Doesn't say you have to accept them all but consider then all.
