Which subforum do you think is better and why? I've been posting on SA for a while now, and I gotta be honest: GBS stinks! FYAD, where I normally post, is a lot funnier and has better posters. All the posters in GBS are misanthropic 30-something IT workers who think they're so funny but they're not. I can't think of one GBS poster who comes close to the likes of g0m or manyak. Even the memes in GBS suck poo poo. Barnacle Jim's face has been an FYAD meme for over 10 years now and still manages to be funny, while on the other hand the memes in GBS were so obnoxious and played out they had to implement a word filter to get rid of them (by the way, the I.'m gay meme you all seem to love so much? It originated in FYAD years ago by Deg. Nuff said). None of the GBS posters are funny or clever enough to post in FYAD but it's always funny to see them try. Overall I think GBS huffs turds and FYAD is the funnier and better forum.

Op do fyad-goers pronounce fyad as individual letters "eff why ayy dee" or as one syllable "fyad"?

I alone can see through the media bias.

I'm also stupid on a scale that can only be measured in Reddits.
They are both dead and gay but fyad is deader and less gay. Its up to personal preference imo.

FYAD is better, OP, for all the reasons you stated and more, including greater purity of spirit.

Fyad is full of responsible law abiding citizens and GBS is full of degenerates. So it's kind of like Salt Lake City vs Oakland. IMHO

Actually FYAD sucks poo poo. It's the forum equivalent of a picture which you've run the "sharpen" tool over so many times that it's degenerated into an indecipherable rainbow haze.

Do you guys think everybody on Cheers would have still liked Norm if he constantly walked in and loudly called everybody fags but still sat down and had beers with the gang on the reg? I hope so. I try to think of every FYAND (FYAD friend!) who posts this exact thread every week as a lost, potential buddy instead of just another schlubby goober who got lost on his way to the seafood place upstairs. Nice wry take on modern posting life op (tousles hair)
