....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.

Can I play?

I hate when people post just to have something to do so they don't kill their children while trying to take their mind off of the 400 lbs of candy that their freaking mother in law gave to said children and BANDED son and daughter in law for EAster...Nothing says resurrection like a chocolate bunny...on my ass.

Rain, are you posting so you won't kill YOUR children??? If so, then please, POST AWAY!!! Hate to not have you on here anymore because you're serving multiple life sentences for killing your own children....

I threw a box of candy down the garbage disposal once. I knew if I threw it in the garbage, I would be eating it out of the garbage.

i was just getting ready to post that exact same thing ... if you dont have a disposal, go to the grocery store with the candy in hand and pitch it in one of those nasty bins...

sorry you're having to deal with the sugar monster.

I feel so out of the loop...travelgirl...tell me!

We will have to look for someone who is under goal weight and has had a "frank" discussion with Travelgirl

I don't normally follow threads like this. Hell, I'm not really following this one, I just popped in yesterday because something struck my funny bone. I had no idea what/who you guys were talking about until after seeing something like "I had to reply" I looked at the person's posts and saw the only recent reply that seemed to fit what was going on.

There is some scary shite in the world. And too few people able to distinguish between sound advice and internet hoobaloo.

but if i'm too tight to actually eat, i'll loose weight, right????

There is the link.

Wheetsin I just couldn't help myself. I get frustrated with people who borderline starve themselves and try to make it seem like that is the norm to lose wieght.

Yes LJM you will loose weight and your pants will become lose.

Hehe, funny, I'd actually replied to that thread. I don't think it's a healthy mental state to ignore very obvious signs of band trouble because it means you lose weight. I hadn't even read the start of the thread when I posted that tho.

LOL thanks, got it...

Boy guys I am 12 pounds past goal, should I update my ticker and get some crediability like her???

PPL, in case you haven't been following along with the last several posts, and you're not someone who has requested a pm....that is the thread that I was referring to, http://www.lapbandtalk.com/774869-post18.html (restriction 3 weeks post op?) and even though the person in question never answered about what the KEY to not having plateaus was, said person has been outed anyway.

There. That's my secret... it didn't play out quite the way I expected it to, but the result is the same.

Sigh. My doctor says my shoulder will never get better if I keep going online all the time. But how can I post that I hate people who post just to post if I can't post?!

Phew! When y'all started talking about someone under their goal weight, I was worried you were talking about Wasa or Chickie. I was over here thinking, "But they do know what they're talking about!" Never mind, I've edumacated myself, carry on, lol!

IS there anyways to ban people who are total asshats from posting advice in certain forums? Like no posting in the preop/introductions area because you give poor advice to newbies that do not know any better.
