Guilty Pleasure

[NYGman]

I have to admit, I found this place due to research on various tax promoters, and anti-tax guru's. However, While I still enjoy the posts and banter around that topic, I find myself coming here for some other guilty pleasures, that are not really related to anything I really do. I read these threads, as a guilty pleasure. Sort of this forum's version of the Jerry Springer show, perhaps, as in it is so bad, you just can't help getting sucked in.

I have one main Guilty Pleasure, and this is Peter of England and WeRe bank. Each time I see a new post in that discussion, I have to read it right away. While his con has seeming gone on way longer than it should have, and he descends more and more in to a fictional realm of evil banks and Villon like governments, I am secretly hoping that the next post is his arrest, but at the same time, hoping that post never comes, and that the entertainment continue, unabated, to its spectacular flame out.

Tom Crawford was a contender for a while, but even he has not been able to top the level of crazy PoE Spews. So why did I start this thread. I guess I was wondering if anyone else shared this view, or if others have their own Guilty pleasure thread, and if so, why?

Gassy Rassy! Who else can combine imagination, insanity and plain foolishness so well? Sometimes I wonder if he's not just a sock-puppet of Deep Knight!

No, no, no. He's channeling Deep Knight.

I have tried on many occasions and will continue to try to get in to Gassy Rassy, but so far I have not met with any success. To me, those Gassy Rassy posts are like a TV show that you know you should like, as it has some of the concepts you find interesting, and actors you love, however, when you go to watch, you can not get past the first 10 minutes, before you have to turn it off and just walk away because of how awful it is. Whenever I read one of DK's posts, I get about 1/3 of the way, and just turn it off and walk away, looking for the salvation of the blue/red inserted text that may add a bit of whit and common sense to the nonsense I have just fed my mind leaving my head well worse for wear. DK Adds a sort of commentary shelter from all the incomprehensible stuff being spewed forth by Gassy in the rest of the post. I can honestly say I do not enjoy those posts, and usually leave those until there is nothing new left to read on this forum.

If PoE is my Guilty pleasure, Gassy Rassy is the inverse However inevitably, I will continue to tune in, and most likely also tune out, but I try...

I have noticed we have a relatively high posts to topic ratio, for this forum, which makes some of our threads faster moving, often post heavy, and results in us sometimes sacrificing quality for quantity.

We've always been eccentric.

I take it you go there a lot.

Soon the threads won't be enough and you'll start baiting them just to get your fix.

A dark and ugly cycle.

One I have seen here time and time again, especially with David Van Pelt as the subject.
