I hate it when people post just to post.....

....like when clearly the post has no relevance or adds no value to the OP's question or concern.

Like this:

OP Question: I am having trouble finding a good fish recipe I like...can anyone help?

Response: I hate fish! Fish makes me gag!

Can someone explain the purpose of this? I mean, if you don't like fish, then why dont you just move on to the next thread? Who really cares what makes you gag or not gag???? I know I don't.

  • I'm having a very hard time understanding why three out of four guinea pigs have the first letter of their name capitalized, but the fourth one (cuddles), has the first letter of its name in lower cas

  • well, i respectfully disagree. I don't think its acceptable to do it. I strongly dont think that its ok to do it, and i do not think that someone who's doctor didnt tell them about PB's who comes here

I find this thread pretty bad too. Lots of people do come here for support & maybe some questions seem pretty stupid to experienced bandster but having this thread where they are mocked & made fun of isn't very supportive!!

ummm ... RANTS AND RAVES THREAD .... "Want debate? Get it here. Gripe, complain, moan, fight, rant and rave. Enter at your own risk!" MMMMmmmm ... ALL CAPS ... I LOVE TYPING IN ALL CAPS!

Much Better Than This I Think!

well, i respectfully disagree. I don't think its acceptable to do it. I strongly dont think that its ok to do it, and i do not think that someone who's doctor didnt tell them about PB's who comes here to ask, should expect to be met with such contempt.

no one is required to answer newbie posts. if you don't want to answer them, then just leave them be for people who do want to give back.

if this thread causes you so much anxiety, ummm .... Dont Read It!!

Hello fellow banned people.

I have been barfing every 15 minutes for the last 21 days. I can't swallow my own spit, my skin is wrinkled and shriveled, my eyes don't focus well as my eyeballs are wrinkled too, I haven't peed in 19 days, my fingernails are a bit dry and falling off my hands, my skin has the texture of a goldfish sitting in the sun for a few weeks.

But I'm loosing really good! I'm at goal and it's only been two months since I was banned.

Golly, you guys weren't kidding when you said this was kinda hard!

YEA ME!

GOAL IN 68 DAYS

-179lbs

LMAO - knot literalie ov corse

The human head weighs eight pounds....

I'm confused. Half the people I meet call me "Fat Head" and the other half call me "Pin Head." So, does that mean my head weighs more then eight pounds, or less?

Ever since I got the band, I have completely lost my sense of humour, and take myself ultra seriously, I also find myself being extremely judgemental and making offensive comments to others....................Is my band too tight, it seems to have stretched my a-hole and made it bigger, because everyone around my calls me a "big a-hole"

Now that made me really LOL! I think we are official BAND SNOBS! Or is that banned snobs???:help:

I am SO honored! You just have no idea!

Baby Boy is the neighbor's cat. He and my Shih Tzu have been best friends for years. It's cute to watch. Then I have another neighbor with a few cats and he's older and retired. I KNOW he is feeding his cats crap food so I feed them too. The good stuff. So that does kinda make me a cat lady, eh?

Now I need to go buy a trough so that I can fill it up with cat food and finish the scenario. :)

Shih Tzu's are not as cute as Shelties. Having a brachycephalic dog is a sign that your band is too tight. You and your dog should both be taking pea sized bites.....

I think you are full of Shih Tzu.

Shih Tzus are MORE cute than Shelties! My little brachycephalic baby is adorable and don't you forget it! :)

She snorts and sneezes with the best of 'em! HA!

Actually, she's got too much cute. She needs a band of her own. I'm going to ask Dr. Aceves to band her. She needs a band, a lot.

Now..does this count the feet and arms?:help: Please be more explicit in your statements..............!!!!!!!!!!

Nope....just lay your head on your scale.

Well, on the days that you are being called "Fat Head" your band is probably too loose and you are eating too much. Go get a fill. On the "Pin Head" days you probably aren't eating enough and too tight. Go get an unfill.
