Bongo's AMA (Inactive)

Not open for further replies.
Why do you go to a store and buy trash bags knowing full well that eventually you will place them in the trash too?
 
Is there a problem, @BongoMan? Have the silly jokes offended you? In which case I'm sorry. I can also ask serious things, but don't know very much about you yet.
 
That is not the case, @BongoMan. I have now deleted the jokes.

By the way, there are a number of serious questions others have asked, that you could respond to if you wanted.

Sincere apologies if my posts made you uncomfortable.
 
It's OK. You're new here. It's actually a nice forum. Some of us have odd senses of humour. Mine provides me with a steady stream of endorphins, but only if it works for both sides. ;)

Lots of kind, caring, interesting people here - that's why I have stuck around. Cyberspace can be a cesspit, but I think this is a good example of an online community. Mind you, we're not perfect - I'm certainly not.

Anyway, we're happy to have you! :)

We are doing our best to be the best, but as you have already stated, we are still all human ;)
 
Many of the replies to this thread have demonstrated

A. what happens when a topic is not clearly defined
B. a sense of play, based on being literal

I think what the OP had in mind by an AMA thread
was to offer straightforward, non-jokey replies to
questions a person might typically ask someone
they've just met.

Things like:
What is your favorite color, book, beverage, aroma, animal etc....
What do you like to do in your spare time? etc...

I take full responsibility for this.
 
@BongoMan, it's OK - sometimes things just go pear-shaped without anyone meaning them to. Then we can try again and do better next time! Sometimes a silly mood in one person collides with a serious mood in another, etc, and not seeing body language doesn't help.
