I can't believe that a certain type of poster on S.F. can be for real. O.K . , they might be , and if so , I apologise in advance.
The sort of thing I'm thinking about goes something like this :-
" Yesterday I found an earwig in my bathroom. He /She had such a lovely little face , I decided to adopt him/her.
The problem is I don't know what to call him/her ? I don't want to call , "her " George or , "him " , Gertrude. Can anyone advise me , I'm desperate "
Usually this type of c**p gets about 10 replies and ends up ,
" Sorry to say that the Earwig ran off and now I'm worried about his/her welfare .If you see an ea........."
And so on.
Another one goes like this ,
" I'm on my 5th. boyfriend since Xmas but he's been looking at my pal and so I really hate him no I really love him 'cos I do and my pal when she went out with my 3rd. boyfriend behind my back I said to her now........."
This rubbish usually gets a good few replies too.
The question is : is this all one gigantic ironic joke , conducted by about 10 people for a laugh ? Or is it a joke by one person and the real victims are the respondents ------or ------- and this is really bizarre , are the questions and answers all for real ?

It's called diversity... deal with it!

this forum is a mix of serious, not too serious and help threads.

its only natural really.

Have I just fallen for the latest one? :suspect:

If you come here regularly you'll get to know the humour or otherwise with which a topic is posted :thumbsup:

And check out the times on the original post too.
It gets a bit odd round here gone midnight :suspect: :hihi:

lol, I'm pretty interested in that earwig story!

I don't think I've ever started a thread like the ones you've mentioned for the simple fact that if it was that personal (erm not that the earwig story is) then I'm sure my friends would have told me what they think.

I think it can often be useful to get an outsiders opinion though so maybe thats what people are going for. And i spose, some people may not have close friends that can advise them on important matters.

I think most people on the forum are for real, well the ones who I have actually met after having spoken to them on here, all seem pretty much as they come across.

Are any of us real.

Perhaps we only exist in someones imagianation an we only believe we are real.:sad:

I hate people asking where to buy things from tbh


dont people look round shops anymore?

you want a lightbulb look in a shop for a lightbulb

you want a pale green rug with jesus's face on, look in a rug shop ......or a religious shop :)

by the way i dont think anybodys actually asked where to buy those from they are hypothetical...........and i dont know where either :)

I think that all threads posted are serious... they are aren't they? please tell me I haven't been getting all upset and stressed about lost earwigs, when in fact they have not been lost at all.....surely no one would be so heartless as to do this dastardly deed. :|

i would like to know where i can buy a wig for my ear

Dunno why someone wud want a wig for the ear :gag: but hey what ever tickles ur fancy!

I actually agree with Fareast - I hate the kind of threads that quote examples of other non-sensical threads. It's a waste of space and time. . . ;)

Why should we have such a variety!!!:rant: I want everything to be plain and boring and simple and level and constant and serious and political.

What bugs me is people using threads like a chatroom or people just adding :hihi: lol which are agains't forum rules

Maximum font size of 3 and this is limited to 3 lines in any one post
- Must not be written entirely in capitals
- Must not be completely bolded - maximum of 3 bolded lines (excluding quote)
- No swearing (including ma$ked), no abuse, no racism or anything else in terms of use
- Don't use threads for one-to-one correspondance (use email/PM!)
- Each post add something of value to the thread, so don't just post "haha" for example.
- Respect the minimum character restriction for posts (related to above)

Forum Rules (http://www.sheffieldforum.co.uk/showthread.php?s=&threadid=1404)

Well I for one love the slightly eccentric posts, you can always rely on the SF to brighten up an otherwise boring day.

Oh and another thing, I once found half a worm thing in an apple after i took a bite out of it. I wonder what happened to the other half .....:confused:

I got home last night (drunk I might add) and decided it was time to impose a poem on everybody in General Chit-Chat.

--Hanging my head in shame--

I got up this morning with a sore head and thought, Am I for real??????
