    I'm going to submit a poll asking what your reasoning was behind this stupid poll.

      You need to tone it down.

        Oh please, Mr Man. This is the tamest insult I've ever used! Months of calling people plebeian bitches and "stupid" is the one that gets you?

        I AM toning it down. I know I shouldn't expect that you've been scrutinizing the emotional-developmental arc of my posting habits, but for the last several weeks, the kindness has been metastasizing and I've been helping much more than hurting.

        If you feel the need to ban me, please do so. I've already played my part here, and it'd free me up to finally getting around to feeding all of my children.

              I just thought that might have been why you got TheManagement's attention

    • That would just mean that you're making a stupid poll on another stupid poll. That's not exactly the best route to make a good point.

        • But that's not exactly the same as this poll. This poll is asking all the users of their reasons to submitt a poll/story, yours would be about an individual user posting an individual poll.

          ...Just saying.

            Do you understand how humor works?

    To amuse people. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. What amuses me is how people treat me differently when I'm an anonymous story author rather than dappled. They say things they probably wouldn't have said. It's kind of nice to be anonymous once in a while. Even if people are a bit rude.

      I've never read a story and thought "Oh that's blatantly dappled", how strange. I will make it my life's mission to find one of your stories and if I do, you HAVE to be honest with me, even if there's a fire!

        Happy hunting! You've never, ever commented on any of my stories or polls. I pretty much knew you hadn't but I've just gone and had a look anyway to make sure.

        Pretty much everyone else on the site has commented on some of mine, though.

          Omg do you feel like I don't love you as much as I should?! Have you done any recently? Maybe I just don't find you interesting =)

            Yes, yes, I'm very hurt by it. I thought you loved me and now this! I guess I'll live but the pain, Sherlock! The pain!

  • Curiosity. I like to hear people's opinion on things, even the little things.

  • To make a point. Too many times have I seen stories involving females that the females complain too much about it, but when I submitt basically the same story but towards males, the females eem more than happy to act like nothing's wrong.

    I'm just a wonderer. I've only asked a few, like how many concerts have you been to and something about sexy time :)

    Hmm, I probably should submit a story/poll one day?
    Nah, answering myself would be a waste of time (and a bit crazy)

    so i can laugh at everyone who makes dumb comments (which is usually 90% of the poll/story)

    the post above me and below me are part of those *dumb* comments
