A question about talk backs

[CConn]

Why on earth are the people who post on talk backs so damn infuriating?

And I'm not just talking about this site. Any comic book/movie/whatever news site you go to, has a talk back section, and they all seem to frequented by the same three non-english speakers who seem to hate everything that exists in this galaxy.

There seems to be no point to them, really. There's never any meaningful discussion, there's rarely anything even remotely interesting said...I mean, there are always some less-than-eloquent posters on message boards, but why are talk backs always so much worse? Why do they keep having them? And why on earth do I keep reading them?

And I'm done.

Wanna give an example?

"Well that’s two minutes of my life I can never have back…."

"I like the comic, a lot, but the movie? I think I’m gonna pass. Big Daddy costume is just plain stupid. Peace."

SOME"


Even when they're positive like the last one, they make me want to strangle a chimp.

yeah I don't know what your talking about.

I thought the goal of talk backs were to be somewhat...well...like...a place to type silly **** at.

What really gets on my nerves is when they type stuff like

T
TH
THI
THIS
THIS!
THIS
THI
TH
T

but with much longer words/phrases that take up a huge amount of space.

I also hate it when people mix 1's into their !'s on purpose and type in ALL CAPS!!!!11!!11

Chris, I couldn't agree more. They are irritating. It's the one reason I avoid reading the articles on AintItCoolNews...or any other trash-site.

Does this have anything to do with the Epic Beard Man?

Theodore, that's what's really getting to me though, it's not just trash sites anymore. It's the Hype, it's Newsarama...it's becoming like SARS, really.

It would be if I knew what that was.

 

[Spidey-Bat]

Youtube it. I can't post it here since it has profanity.

I don't know if it's art, but I like it.
