Members JasmineTea Posted July 5, 2010 Members Share Posted July 5, 2010 It will pass. ..I hav'nt bothered to click on any of them. Maybe if Kwak or Knockwood posted a joke I'd check it out. Till then, keep on scrollin'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Fendouglas Posted July 5, 2010 Author Members Share Posted July 5, 2010 At least some of the arguments might not be entertaining, but at least they're based on music topics and as such, are much more preferable to some of the sh*t I've been seeing on here!

Members Opa John Posted July 5, 2010 Members Share Posted July 5, 2010 With 5 Joke threads on the first page - I'm beginning to think that the name of the Forum needs to be changed - because it's starting to be less about acoustic music! Well, actually, it's SIX, but who's counting? Sorry if you don't care for it, but it DID get a little dialogue going. The whole forum seemed like it was a little bogged down to me. Just tryin' to lighten things up a skosh. I just felt like we needed a little levity break. At least our threads weren't about computer problems or nose hair clippers! You want acoustic guitar theads? Jump in a start one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's good to know that there's at least a few other people on the forum that aren't tightwads :poke:. I'm not sure what the big deal about the joke threads is. I'd be willing to bet that if you counted the number of off-topic threads at any given time, there'd always be at least four or five in the running. At this given time, all of those OT threads happen to be about jokes. What's the big deal ? I don't mind a good laugh every now and again and if it takes some bar jokes to lighten up the mood, so be it. Keep 'em coming, I say . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DeepEnd Posted July 6, 2010 Members Share Posted July 6, 2010 . . . you need to learn to lighten up and more I, for one, have liked the jokes I've read so far. I just told my wife the one about the automobile collision. A single thread might be a better idea though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A single thread might be a better idea though. Hi Deepend, As Opa sais below Originally Posted by Opa John Well, actually, it's SIX, but who's counting? Sorry if you don't care for it, but it DID get a little dialogue going. The whole forum seemed like it was a little bogged down to me. Just tryin' to lighten things up a skosh. Anyhow i just felt like we needed a little levity break. At least our threads weren't about computer problems or nose hair clippers! You want acoustic guitar theads? Jump in a start one. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The forum was becoming at the time a bit booring with no one putting anything guitar related up on the board so just some of us decided to put some jokes up to lighten the mood and start something up for a little chuckle and i see no harm in that now and again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Terry Allan Hall Posted July 6, 2010 Members Share Posted July 6, 2010 Jokes are fine by me...just put "OT" in front of the title and let'em rip! Life is too short w/o laughter! The idea of putting them all in one thread is an excellent one, as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
