for me it's about 5 hours browsing/laugh. i don't know if that's normal, i just wanna fit in.

In terms of actual ROI, I probably win. I write 8 articles a week, and I use SA for probably one a week. For good ideas, like when that one goon started a thread about his Father-in-law fixing his house against his will, I was inspired to research women's messageboards to find the worst Father-in-Law complaints. Multiply that by the last 5 years at a conservative estimate of $25/week, and I must've made over $5,000 for my $25 investment.

I was actually thinking of a give-back thread, recently. Maybe where I order top posters pizza or something? I'd love ideas.

Also I laugh about 10 times an hour browsing SA, so I'm high there, too. I'm just a sucker for this offensive brand of humor. I think it's amazing.

Between this forum and being gay, I'm kept at least a couple months ahead of my straight friends and coworkers in most trends in music, art, and culture. I get to seem way less boring than I really am for minimal effort. I'd probably get even more out of this forum if I gave a drat about sports, cars, or vidya games.

Regarding laughs, it varies a lot by how high all of you are when you post.

I get paid a ton of money to supervise some nerds who run a handful of fake accounts that post threads mentioning my clients' brands, so it's actually excellent.

i feel this way too, some of the laughs really are hard hitters but there are some things like the 56th photoshop of a dead girl that i don't really get why it's funny. idk is one of you offering an online course on internet comedy on coursera or samart or smth?

you talking about the everest girl? I think the point they are making is its funny when you're so willfully ignorant of things that can kill you, actually kill you in the end.

i suspect he's actually talking about the pic of the girl raising her hand that was taken before she was murdered.

nothing any goon has ever said about everest is funny, that thread is as shameful as doobie, the pizza boy who plays bubsy etc. the gallery of well-flogged shite.
