The board's server will undergo upgrade maintenance tonight, Nov 5, 2014, beginning approximately around 10 PM ET. Prepare for some possible down time during this process.
An enigma of a man shaped hole in the wall between reality and the soul of the devil.

As we become conscious of the truth of existential nihilism and the Absurd, should we: a. Acknowledge the absurdity of seeking any inherent meaning, but continue this search regardless, and in doing so develop meaning from the search alone. b. Take a "leap of faith," or irrationally choose to believe in the existence of a reality that is beyond the Absurd c. Commit suicide

Did we need a thread for this? Isn't this what GD is?
in what way is this thread any less appropriate than any other thread?
I don't think it's an issue of appropriateness. It's more an issue of redundancy and clutter. And lack of originality and momentum. It's not a useful thread. It's not a parody thread -- or if it is, it's not a successful parody thread. It's just lame. But yeah, on that score, you're right. It's totally appropriate for GD, I suppose.
thing is, it's not like people are going to be angry because they can't take part in scintillating conversation in the ass blowing thread etc. just because this one exists, so the whole idea of redundancy or relevance is kind of stupid considering the RM as a message board, or message boards in general are fairly dead as far as social media goes, and how in god's name anyone would be bothered by an 'ask RM' thread being made as opposed to say a 'talk about your day' thread is fairly ridiculous. I'm baffled how this is any more lame than any thread anywhere on this board. it's here for people to hang out, talk, and maybe get some laughs or some valid information. in that way it's indeed extremely relevant and not at all redundant if anyone gets something out of it.
but, yeah, i can see how the wealthy eddie veddar meme thread is much more worthwhile to participate in or whatever.
basically if it's a problem for you or anyone, my best suggestion would be- start another thread. ta-da- no more problem- you get to talk about whatever you want and no one else can accuse you of just being a whiny bitch - instead they'll participate in your threads and this one will die- like innumerable others over the course of RM history.
